The coins didn't look like any coins he'd ever seen before, but they were still coins, and Shadow didn't have any of his own. He'd found one under a pile of blankets in the closet in his room, and the other he'd found in the grass near the lake. One was gold and rough around the edges, and the other was large and silver and heavy. It almost felt like the silver Liberty-head dollar that Zorya Polunochnaya had given him, years ago now.

He smiles as he takes the silver coin and without thinking, flicks it across the backs of his knuckles. He makes it look effortless. Shadow then flicks the coins around and around a circuit of different positions. He's just practicing.

Now, he takes the smaller gold coin and pretends to take it from his left hand, while concealing the larger silver coin in his right. He opens his right hand and shows the silver coin. His Pointless Coin Trick, now complete with point.

Anyone want to see some magic?
