[ She's a business woman, Apollo. It's her job to crunch numbers and think of these things, because she's not sure what sort of work she can do here. Stage magic might not cut it in a place that has real magic.
Still, she's staring up at him, hoping she doesn't have to beg and plead more. ]
But it would make for a cool trick! I can jump through the fire and... well, I dunno what else, but I'll think of something! You're right, it's not cool, it's awesome!
[ And then he's doing it again. She claps happily and giggles, extremely excited and praying that mermaid or not, she gets some sort of amazing powers like that, too! Of course, with her luck, she'll be the most boring thing in the world... ]
