"What do you mean?"

"Fictional magic stuff is typically, like, the rituals and the chants thing – you said Juniper was looking that sort of stuff up – and I just didn't really think that magic would be like that, for some reason."

"Well if magic really exists then maybe it influenced fiction. It's really insistent about magic using Latin, so that's a place to look. Would Kero recognise a ritual or spell if someone cast one?"

"I have no idea!" says Theo. "He might, because he has some sort of magic thing, but," he shrugs.

"Some sort of magic thing?"

"The ability to know when a card is active, not as well as I can when I meditate? It might apply to sorcery too." He shrugs, again.

"Ooh yeah that sounds like it could work!"

He nods. "Yeah, I think so. I would ask him but I'm not sure he's even with me today."

No flying bear shows up to prove him wrong.

And then one of Theo's friends walks Theo-wards, so Theo suggests to Willow that they table this conversation for a bit later or something.

She shrugs and goes back to her group of friends to blab at them.

After a few more minutes, break is over and they have another hour of whatever lesson and then it's lunch!

Willow doesn't go talk to him then.

Then lunch will proceed, lunch will be over, and they'll have two more hours of lessons and then it'll be the end of the day.

And then Willow walks up to him!

"Hey there," he says.

"Hi! What now?"

"… I don't know, probably back to my place or something – uh, I should text Sadde?"

And Tyler. He should text Sadde and Tyler. So he texts Sadde and then… he'll see if he can text himself, after he gets a response from Sadde.

Sure, your place it is.

"My place, apparently," says Theo. Then he texts Tyler – by texting his own phone, hopefully that'll work – to let him know that they'll be there shortly.

Willow calls home and informs Juniper and Maya of this.

Then she calls her driver.

Then a limo appears.

"What's your address?" she asks Theo.

Driver! Of course.

He tells her his address.

The driver nods and starts driving.

The inside of the limousine is the inside of a limousine. It is big and has lots of space and also soft drinks. Willow pours herself some.

Theo… does not! He's fine just sitting in the limousine.

Ha. Limousine.

Yup! Limousine! And then they arrive at Willow's place.
