[He saw her jaw drop, as subtle as it was, and his own smile turned rather smug at that. He didn't exactly show off often enough, and while it was indeed an easy trick for him, he still was rather content with her reaction. And her comment, whether true or not, still managed to make him chuckle slightly:]
Really? Clearly, you need better dates. Or you need to hang around me more often. [He added with his most charming smile, not entirely teasing her there.
It wasn't too hard to figure out that more transmuting more booze into her hand would have been the right way to impress Jessica. There was a thousand other things he could have done, some flashier than others, but given the fact that she'd seen strange things in her life already, or at least he assumed she did, flashy wouldn't have been the way to go.]
I'm sure you'd learn to be responsible with it. Plus, it's not like I can create things out of thin air: I can only transmute matter, it has to come from somewhere.
[He stopped himself there, not wanting to bore Jessica with the detailed workings of transmutation and its dangers. Unless she asked for it.
He then gave her a faked offended look:]
Oh, come on. I'm a better judge of character than that!
And contrary to popular beliefs, it seemed, I don't take it to bed.
[Although, she was drawing a point there. He couldn't even say if the cloak could get jealous or not. The Ancient One did mentioned that it was fickle, but surely not that much?]
