"Well I'm not anything as much as I am beautiful," Jesper says with a grin. He is (mostly) joking although his confidence really is as solid in his sense of self as anything else. He's vain but why not be? If you got it, flaunt it. It's why he tends to wear more colorful clothes than a lot of people, usually in green like now, and he's even worse back home where he has his yellows and reds too. Not the sneakiest look, but fashion goes down for no one.
"But you, you are one of the prettiest faces I've seen here, and that's saying a lot." All the Summoned are hot but Wen Kexing is pretty. Delicate. Lovely skin, lovely eyes, lovely hair. Jesper would love to admire the rest of him too.
As for the trick, well. "I wish I could, but you have to be born with it." Jesper shows him the dart and puts it in the palm of his hand. The object seems to shimmer and crumble into his hand until it appears to be liquid. He makes it into multiple shapes; a circle, a square, and then back to a dart. It seems to be no effort at all to ping it back to a solid object, like nothing happened in the first place. It looks exactly the same, although it is warm to the touch due to the change.
"We're called Grisha back home. It's mostly a curse. People hate you, try to kill you, try to use you. There are only a few safe places in the world." Jesper was from one of them, long ago, so it was his own choice to go to a dangerous place instead. It was more thrilling. "I know what it's like to be different."
