[The line of her mouth pulls sideways and her eyebrows flirt in the direction of her hairline, but she does hin the courtesy of not explicitly calling his bluff. That would be rude.

Instead, Wysteria takes a random blank page from the middle of her stack. She folds it in half once and then lays it open with the fold's crease exposed on the table.]

Lend me something from your pockets, if you please. Something with bulk if you have it.

Okay David Blaine.

[ Tony pushes both hands into his jacket pockets, coming up with his comms crystal—which goes back in—and a pair of winter gloves. This latter thing he offers with a querying twitch, a glance down at the paper. ]

I'm watching both hands. Nothing gets by me.

I don't know who that is, [is an automatic reminder as she takes the gloves.

There is no showmanship about it. Wysteria simply sets the gloves on one side of the paper, and then closes the other half over them.

Completely.

All the way over them.

The two sides of the folded paper meet flush and smooth, as if nothing at all lived between them that might reasonably make closing the fold—not difficult. Impossible.

Wysteria folds the paper a few more times, making a neat little self secured origami envelope out of the thing. She slides it back across the table to him.]
