"Ah, the classic poke in the shoulder." Cheshire mused to Mari's immediate cure for possible illusionment. "You might want to be careful though, I have once put up an illusionary me over someone else to counter just such a tactic. I got the new girl Alice to poke a random club-goer like that the other day."<br/><br/>To Dumas's reaction, Cheshire was mildly surprised. The reaction was a little more aggressive, and it made Chesh realize that Dumas might still be strung a little too tight to have people jump out around corners at him. One more mark for the 'beat the shit out of him' tally.<br/><br/>"Oh, I'm sure we could find a way to not have candles or..." Cheshire winked, "other dangerous surprises. Maybe just get everyone to act all normal on your birthday up until the point White or I announced it over the intercom or some such thing." He grinned, just imagining the kind of embarrassed face that Dumas would make. "I think I'd rather enjoy that."
