Isaac! Look, look! The bunny's finally doing what I want it to!
"That's great, Miria dear. As for me, these doves just won't come out of my top hat."
Maybe they really like it in there?
"It's been three days since they made themselves at home in there. You know, I did lay down some newspaper at the bottom to make them feel a bit more comfortable. Maybe they like that so much they don't want to leave..."
Home is where the heart is!
"Aaaaugh!"
Eeeek! What is it, Isaac?!
"This dove laid an egg inside my hat!"
Wow! They made it their nest!
"Darn, I won't be able to do any magic like this!"
Amazing, Isaac!
"Mmm? What is, Miria?"
Look! There used to only be doves in that hat, but now there's an egg in there, too!
"...Astounding! It must be magic!"
There was nothing up your sleeve, but the egg just appeared!
"Unbelievable! I've just brought new life into the world!"
You're a genius magician, Isaac!
"I'm incredible! I'll start the show right away! You can be the audience. Here, watch this egg until it hatches!"
It's the world's longest magic show!
...But, you know, Isaac.
I've seen a magic trick that puts this one to shame. I've seen a show that lasted even longer.
I should have died that day—I thought I'd never be able to laugh again—but look, Isaac. You've made me so, so happy.
Your magic show's still going, and I've been watching it the whole time, Isaac.
And I'm not hiding anything up my sleeve, either, when I say that I love you.
Now, and forever...
