"I am allowed in this corner of the reading room 'cause I'm Bella's friend but I am merely from São Paulo, I am not, myself, São Paulo."

"Manchester."

"Manchester also, who's this, Sean?"

"...I don't actually recall if she gave her name."

"Oh, well, I'm Ennis, you've met Sean here, one of our frosh just came by to tell us there was quality food going spare...?"

"Kareen," nobody here will ask any weird questions if she uses Dad's name and not Papa's, "Magnus. From another dimension with very different magic, arrived by way of a third form of magic that is much, much better."

"...smashing, and it does food? Have we a plan to keep her alive -"

"She is planning to be nocturnal and fight mals all night long. She has magic she expects to make this work."

"Lake'll have an entire sports rivalry or something."

"I have an explicit power for not being able to get hurt in a fight."

"Hurt meaning, like, physically injured? There's mals that do other things."

"I have a separate explicit power for not having irrecoverable things happen to me. Or for recovering from them anyway. Maybe I should actually just make pamphlets about all the powers I have and asking people to let me know if any of them unexpectedly patch a huge crisis."

"Sounds handy. But if you get chased into the void by a mal that makes you psychically terrified, perhaps you'll simply fall out of another ceiling, but we'd miss you."

"--Oh, fear I can handle!"

"That's just an example."

"Well, fair. But my mind is categorically protected."

"Well, I certainly hope you are still here in the morning."

"If you have additional precautions to suggest, I won't turn them down."

"Do you need some sort of weapon?"

"It's not just food, she can make whatever, I assume that includes a sword or whatever."

"Oh, probably don't make a gun, objects can pick up personalities if they're around enough magic and that's bad enough if it's scissors."

"I don't know enough about swords to make a good one and I've never held a good one to duplicate it, and I have, in fact, held a gun, so that's very good to know!"

"People wouldn't bring them in here anyway because ammunition would be a pain and a half, which doesn't apply to you, but, yeah."

"Do your powers make you - only as good as you need to be, so if we give you stuff to help you out, your powers help you less and we're still out the stuff -"

"Okay, so firstly, I'm going to actually sit down and write up my power list now. Secondly, I only need to borrow something for a second to be able to duplicate it, you won't be out anything if you hand me a sword."

She pulls a sheaf of printer paper out of her food sack and another spooky eye pen out of her pocket and sits down to write.
