Wanda nodded, and stepped forward as he bade her to. "What do I do?" She asked curiously.

::The inside of the steel cage had restraints for tricks; Tiboldt was an accomplished escape artist. However, nothing that complicated was to come now; he simply had to check that she wasn't, in fact, claustrophobic.:: "Just step inside."

Wanda nodded and stepped inside the metal cage, turning to look out at Tiboldt. She wasn't claustrophobic, as she had said. And she highly doubted that Magneto would come and watch her perform, let alone torment her on stage.

::Tiboldt met her eyes, and placed his hand on the door.:: "I'm going to close it now, and I'll open it in a moment."

Wanda nodded, expecting that. "That's fine," She told him. He was testing her, to see if she had been lying about being claustrophobic. It wouldn't do to take someone's word for it and have them freak out during a performance.

::With her acquiescence, Tiboldt shut the door to the cage closed, leaving her effectively trapped. There was plenty of air, of course, and now it was time to wait and watch.::

Wanda stood straight, and didn't want to test the metal sides as he closed the door. There was plenty of air, so she didn't have to worry about suffocation. Smoothing creases in her shirt, she looked straight ahead at the door of the cage.

::Tiboldt knew the signs of anxiety and watched her eyes for them. None came to pass, and after five minutes, he opened the door to the cage. She had passed the test.::

Wanda smiled at Tiboldt as he opened the cage door, and stepped out. "I passed the test?" She asked.

::Tiboldt returned the smile with an exaggerated nod.: "You passed the test."

Wanda's smile widened. "What do you have in store for me now?" She asked curiously.

"That depends," ::Tiboldt said, while leaning against the cage.:: "Are you good at keeping secrets?"

Wanda grinned. "Most assuredly," She told him, an eager look appearing on her face.

::She was eager, which made Tiboldt smile. He could see in her the desire to get on stage, to practice the craft, and recognized within her how he himself had been twenty years ago. That combined with the potential of her mutant power, and that she didn't seem to have a drug problem or anything else that would put the act in danger were enough to hire her. Tiboldt considered himself a good judge of character, and he could envision her on stage.
He extended his hand to her, offering a handshake.:: "In that case, Wanda, you're hired."

Wanda simply beamed, and extended a hand to shake his thoroughly. "Excellent! Thank you very much, Mr. Tiboldt." She couldn't wait to tell Pietro, as well as Kurt and Uncle.
