[Hardison smiled. She was adorable. Not a mark because it's almost impossible to con an honest man or woman (even if tricking one could be agonizingly easy). But definitely naive and helpful and he hoped that never left her.]
I'm after two things to make my magic show better. The first is a bigger tent, because even your part of the freak show is bigger than the fortune teller tent. The second is a person or two to help me with some of the tricks. I think you'd enjoy it as a break from the freak show, and I also saw that the knife thrower's assistant is about the same height, build, and hair colour as you are.
[He grinned widely.] And if I can persuade both of you to help me that really opens a lot of tricks up as long as there's only ever one of you visible on my stage at a time.
[He hoped that he didn't have to tell her stage magic wasn't real, and that she'd realise what he was suggesting. But the hint to let her work it out would tell him how sharp she was.]
