Oh come on... *nudges him with her arm* It's not that big of a deal. Hell, I almost got arrested, by a co-worker, in full view of my neighbors, in the middle of the night, with my friends laughing hysterically, for dancing naked in my front yard. So see? We all do stupid shit while drinking. At least you are good at getting out of locks and junk. I've already told you I'm not much of a dancer. *chuckles*
Truth be told? I wasn't that drunk, just drunk enough to do stupid shit. And I'd never done that kind of an escape before that night, either. It was just one I'd seen Houdini do. I had the guys lock me up the way he'd been, and I did it naked so I could say I nailed this stupid dare they gave me and didn't look like a tool. Found out later from Jim that I'd unconsciously used my powers to open every damn lock they put on me. It's like an inherent talent or something, apparently, every one of my people's got it. Like the twins? Really good at mindreading, and the head of the order? Vanishing. Makes him a whiz with cards.
Oh my god! Your's was a dare too? *laughs* I think we need new friends.
So your inherent talent is undoing locks? No offense or anything but compared to mind reading or vanishing it doesn't really seem that impressive. I mean I'm pretty good at picking locks. Not like psychically good but above average.
*smiles shyly* Yeah, well, it does take some knowledge. Understanding of escape, and of locks. I do, just from following Houdini. Pretty much, if I know how a lock functions? I can open it. Just like that.
