As Terra glanced down for the smallest of moments, Caspa couldn't help but grin, although it was an expression that didn't reach her indomitable eyes. "And how surprised you would have been if it was there," she said in a persuasive tone, certain that with practice, that was the sort of thing that could be done. She was utterly taken with her idea, because it would be such fun to watch and an excellent brainteaser for her calculating mind to work on - both solving and inventing the sleight-of-hand puzzles. She couldn't force Terra to do anything, though, of course: the other wolf was the one with the talent, and it was up to her to develop it. Caspa felt she could certainly help with a few ideas of her own, given some time to think, but she couldn't see herself performing them. She was too obvious and straight-forward, too serious. Any strange movement she made would be picked up on. She just hoped that Terra could see the same glorious vision she could. It seemed likely she did, however, speaking ambitiously of their first target - Vigilante, was her suggestion. Caspa lifted a brow. "That will be a challenge," she commented. The King was a sharp and intelligent character, as proven by his prolonged leadership and successful tactics during the war, although she'd admittedly seen very little of him in all her time in the Court. "We had better get started." She got up and looked around the room. There wasn't much to work with here, although she was sure that if they had a look around the hotel, they'd find plenty of interesting props straight away. The curtain drew her attention again, though, first. "Could you lie flat beneath that, and then when I drag it away, crawl along under it it so it looked like you really had moved?" It wasn't much of a trick, but it might tie into something else. Caspa was certain Terra had learned plenty of them in her time alone, considering how keen she'd seemed to be to practice with the white hound.
