"You'd want to enchant your own?"

"Maybe! I don't know exactly what I want, yet, and if I decide I want something harder than you want to do I'm going to eventually enchant my own."

"Cool. I'll work up a practice trajectory that should get you to there sooner than later."

"I think I want to focus in general on enchanting things over other applications of magic but who knows?"

"It's a specialty! People major in it."

"Well, I don't know what else there is!" she laughs.

"Of arcane majors? Illusions, elementalism, extraplanar studies, necromancy, I don't have the list memorized."

"Illusions also appeals," she says cheerfully.

"And that is what you have learned today. You have a bright future in making people's hair sparkle or animating children's cartoons."

"I can't imagine anyone will be interested in switching that to magic anytime soon," she giggles.

"Which?"

"The cartoons."

"How do you do it with science instead?"

"Probably with greater difficulty," she admits, "but we've got the infrastructure and industry in place, so. It involves having a lot of individual images just a little different from each other."

"...like a flipbook?"

"Oh, you have those? Yes, it's the same principle."

"That sounds so tedious!"

"I think they do it with computers now? I'm not an animator."

"Etherscaping pictures is kind of hard... I guess I don't know if the computer equivalent is equally hard."

"Neither do I. I'm sure we can find someone to ask, if you want to know."

"Animation in particular isn't a priority but I do hope to get crystal balls cooperating with computers."

"Crystal balls being magic computers?"

"Far as I can tell they're the nearest equivalent, although there could be differences I don't know about because I don't know enough about computers."

"Oh, that could be."

"So at some point I'll want an introduction to computers. Probably after I learn a little more English so I can make any sense of the text in them."
