"Perhaps the English dub censors them."

"Classic English dub," Temple shakes his head. "I bet then you're turned into two characters."

"Two characters? Why would that happen?"

"Think of the children. If they start seeing nonbinary role models they might start thinking it's okay to be nonbinary."

"That... is more sad than amusing, actually."

"So what, am I going to become a boy me and a girl me? And, again, you seem to be neglecting the fact that the Japanese are much more cavalier about this stuff than the Americans, so this is only a problem for the English dub."

"Yeah, that is my point. I think they did a similar kind of censorship with Sailor Moon and these three characters that turned into girls when they got their powers? It doesn't matter that it wouldn't make sense. As long they can license stuff to sell merch."

"They didn't make them be different characters, though, did they?"

"I actually never watched it. I just remembered someone commenting about it on the internet."

"They'll probably try to make me into a single gender. Somehow. And I wonder what the, ah, more mature parts of the anime are like. Maybe it's porn fanfic?"

"Well, presumably those parts are cut out, just like how they cut people going to the bathroom - Why are we going down this tangent again?"

"Because the Cards are all girls and it's weird."

"Okay, but is anyone against changing topics to something more... productive? Maybe Card testing?"

"Sounds good to me."

"Hey! I offered to give a ride on Sadde's magical pink staff and you guys just laughed!"

"I fail to see your point."

"Just pointing out the obvious test."

"It'll work," she predicts.

Well, as long he gets volunteers.

Sure, why not? How about if they also test what happens if the staff's cargo is increased (such as when someone shifts into a heavier shape).

It seems to be designed to carry anything up to a certain (fairly large) amount of mass with no difficulty and then fail to lift any more than that.

Yeah, but does the increase of mass means it goes down a bit until it stabilizes again or does it become a floating immovable object?

It's not immovable, if someone pushes it it moves, but without a push weight is not sufficient to make it go down.

Good to know. Some of the other tests can wait until they are outdoors.

So, Illusion, what sort of things can it do?

It naturally shows people what they want to see, but can be told to show pretty arbitrary things. It can do wind, too, and even mild temperature changes, but it isn't solid. It does affect the other senses, though.
