"Well, it would be very unadventurous to be given a magic power and not even consider using it" Becky pondered openly.
"But you don't have any magic powers. He's just using you, can't you see?" James gestured at Alcuin who was observing the conversation with the detached interest of a professor.
"Well, apparently I can turn you into any kind of creature I want whenever I want, even ones that don't really exist, so I'd say that makes me pretty magical right now" came the response. To James' alarm Becky was clearly warming to the idea of using her new found abilities.
