"It's not gonna talk," he says, holding it out to her. "You can just shove it in your pocket for now, I guess, but try not to let it fall out. Okay, ready?"

Bella reaches out and touches the droplet. "Yeah - like so?"

Permalink
"Close enough," he says, and incants: "Motion."

The device glimmers. A glimmer passes over Bella, too, but it doesn't stick around; this has to be a stealthy spell, after all, if she's going to use it all the time.

Brilliance passes her the droplet and takes his hand away.

Bella tucks it into her pocket.

Then she stares at her arm.

Then she grins and breaks into a heedless run, and leaps into the air, and spins, and generally capers around like a baby goat crossed with a droplet of water on a hot griddle.

Brilliance laughs.

Bella's laughing too, breathless with it, breaking into random dance.

Permalink

He chases after her, just because he can.

Permalink

She lets him catch her, and she hugs him tight. "Thank you!"

Permalink
He hugs back, beaming.

"You're welcome! I'm glad you like it! Ooh, hugs. Hugs are awesome."
Permalink

"Hugs're pretty awesome," Bella agrees. "It's great, it's the best thing, I feel amazing."

Permalink

Mmmmm snuggly hugs.

Permalink

Grateful happy hugs! "It's amazing, I love it, it's like I'm telekinetic only with myself, I'll never trip over random nonexistent things again, I love it."

Permalink

"I love that you love it!" he laughs, tucking her shoulder under his chin.

Permalink

"Best present ever." Squeeze.

Permalink

"Awwwwww." Squish! "I think hugs might be better than ice cream," he adds contemplatively.

Permalink

"Is ice cream the current winner in food?"

Permalink

"Yep!"

Permalink
"And to think you've only tried one flavor of the stuff."

Hugs hugs hugs. Even hugs are pleasanter with all this detailed obedient feedback from all her parts.
Permalink

"I should try more flavours," he says, snuggling her some more. "I want to try everything."

Permalink

"I'm getting that," she laughs. "You are one serious hedonist."

Permalink

"I definitely am," he giggles. Hug hug hug. "I don't understand how anybody else isn't."

Permalink

"Got other things on our minds," Bella shrugs.

Permalink

"Yeah," he laughs, "how."

Permalink

"Well, I'm also a lot more used to food and hugs than you are, maybe the novelty will wear off in seventeen years."

Permalink

"Mmm, I think that'd be kinda sad," he says.
