Who: Matilda Wormwood and YOU.
What: playing hopscotch with flying stones!
When: This afternoon.
Where: Near the garden!!
Rating: G



[ she should have asked if she was allowed to draw on the pavement near the garden. But Matilda had figured that if she wasn't, she'll wash the chalk away.

It was a good practice for her power more than just a game. She knew this was something many kids usually played together but having grown up the way she did, she didn't mind playing alone.

To those who might pass her she might seem like a true wonder. A small child in a blue dress making a stone rise into the air before it is elegantly placed down on a numbered square for her to hop on the other numbered blocks to get it back. After she retrieves it, she hops back only to lay it on the ground and make it float up and onto one of the chalk squares again.

She'll accept playmates. ]

Well, that's interesting. He rubs at his chin in thought.

"How recently do you mean? Since you arrived in this place?"
eaglet: (talking up)

He's surprised when the stone zips around in the air, and he spends a long moment just watching it.

"Have you tried it on other things? Or only stones and glass?"

He smiles a little, nodding. Kids are fun.

"You are probably right about that. I think most people would like to keep their feet on the ground."
eaglet: (talking up)

That's... not a word he knows. "Headmistress? What is she in charge of?"

He frowns. That doesn't really make sense to him, that a person in a position of power in a community could not be deposed in any way.

"No, she should not. Is there no way for her to be removed from being principal? Who makes the decisions in your community?"
eaglet: (serious >:[)

That makes even less sense! "You do not know your mayor? How is he elected if his people do not know him?"

He frowns. He's not about to tell a child that she can't do anything she puts her mind to, since he was the same when he was that young (not that he's not young now), but still. It seems like a lot for one child to take on. "'Us'?"
eaglet: (thoughtful)

Well, no, children don't really elect anything where he's from, either -- but the idea of any person, even a young person, not knowing who is in charge of her people... it's a little disconcerting.

"Can you count on them to assist you?"
eaglet: (talks some more)

He seems to be appeased by this, and nods firmly.

"Good. If you have no choice, you must still stand against injustice alone -- but it is good to have friends to help."
