It's always exciting to learn how a magician performs his stunts; I think you can liken it to that sort of thing. [ She's doing so poorly at this. ] As for it being the only genuine thing you've felt from him... Some people are simply harder to move than others, I suppose.

Well, no matter. Whatever the circumstances, I'm actually rather excited to see how they work in action myself! For a detective, unraveling such a mystery is a dream come true. It'll certainly answer a few questions I have in mind.

[ Her comfort words were acceptable enough. Good. ]

Do you believe it'll help with any of our cases going forward?

[twostringsonebow]

Not a bit.

[Sorry. Things like this... there's no way they translate to reality, though what counts as reality now is up in the air.]

I'm sorry, Miss Velveteen. Though... if it ever does, then I will happily tell you so.
