So they all get into the limo again—it's large enough to contain everyone—and off they go.

Off they go indeed.

And eventually they arrive! Willow leads them to a very spacious room with no furniture to speak of except for a couple of rolled up martial arts mats.

"Our sister Rowan fences," Juniper explains.

"Of course she does," says Theo. "… What are we trying first, any ideas?"

Permalink

"Well, we all know about the elements part? ...maybe I could try to do something like what the Change can do, without using the card itself."

Permalink

"That's probably a good idea, since you have the, uh, Change thing anyway."

Permalink

"Okay, let's see... I'm not actually sure what to change to what. This is surprisingly open-ended, we should, like, make a list of things to try? Maybe start out with a list of cards and see what from it we could safely look at? She made a flower."

Permalink

"Yeah," he says, looking around to see if anyone perhaps wants to make a list.

Maya! Maya has paper, somehow, and pens – perhaps she got them from Jess at some point, or asked Willow or Juniper for them – and she's very willing to make a list!

Permalink

She starts listing all fifty-two cards, fails to remember them all, and asks Kero to continue—

Permalink

—which he has no problem doing.

Permalink

Maya writes them all down, leaving space to write notes about each one.

Permalink

"The most interesting one to me in that list is Fly, if I could fly without the card..."

Permalink

Theo sighs. "Kero said it'd take a while for me to do it without the wings being visible, I think, but I don't know if that applies to the other magic."

Permalink

"Should I call wind? Wind, make me weightless and lift me up, give me the ability to fly!" she proclaims, and this causes her to lift about ten centimetres above the floor. "...okay, not as good as the card, is this a general thing, how did Clow even create the cards if we're limited like this?" She hovers forward a bit.

Permalink

"I have no idea," says Theo. "Yyyyou could try calling Fly instead, in case that's– like, a thing? I don't know if it is or not. Or maybe both of them, perhaps they can combine or something."

Permalink

Maya writes down the phrasing and the result.

Woo, careful notetaking.

Permalink

"...I'm not sure how to stop, maybe just—" She lands. "Okay, yeah, just wanting to stop does it. Fly, carry me in your wings, grant me the power of flight!" Nope. "Hmm."

Permalink

"… Possibly try calling on, like, air and earth or something, some combination of the typical elements – probably not fire, because, uh," he looks around a bit pointedly. "Even though the idea of hot air might help with the floating."

Permalink

"Why would earth help?"

Permalink

What, really, no 'why on earth'? "I have no idea, I was mainly just meaning to give it extra strength instead of being thematically appropriate, but perhaps the things can do the opposite of their themes too, and since Earth is about the ground, and you want to fly, perhaps it'd be able to get rid of the annoying thing, like reduce gravity on you or something."

Shrug.

"Wind, I call upon thee to lend me aid—"
