[there are children EVERYWHERE. Neal's never really swayed one way or another on kids, but they are good marks to practice on. Or perform magic on, because that's ... really what he's doing. Slight of hand is a conman's best friend

[Hannah is EXCITED. Jo is just trying not to get attached again.]

You're going to be her new best friend if you keep that up.

[huntersdaughter]

Well, she can stay as long as she's not bothering you.

[classic_ratpack]

Not at all. I don't mind, if you need a break.

[huntersdaughter]

[She laughs for a moment]

I didn't really mean that I'd just leave her with you, unless you're desperate to adopt that 'Uncle Neal' moniker.

[shrugs]

It's up to you. If you need a break, you need a break.

[huntersdaughter]

[She glances around for a moment.]

As long as you don't mind. I mean, I can get her in an hour or so.

[looks over at Hannah]

What do you think, Hannah? Want to learn some magic?

[huntersdaughter]

[Hannah, at this point is in love with Neal and his magic tricks, so she's just going to cling to his leg and nod.]

I think you have your answer.

I'll bring her back to the Lux in about an hour, all in one piece, I promise.

[huntersdaughter]

[She offers him an amused smirk]

I think I'm more worried about you. She can be a handful, but I'll see the two of you in an hour.

[faux salute, before taking Hannah's hand]

Come on, Hannah. Let's see if we can get you to pull a rabbit out of a hat.
