Sometimes witches have powers before they turn. But this is rare, uncommon.
More often, a potential witch displays almost nothing out of the ordinary at all. Just, say, a little more skill with people, a little more natural charisma. An extra dose of something that could almost be called luck, if one were paying attention and on the lookout for witches.
There is one such maybe-potential, right over there. He's not from around here, but he is fluent in Italian and French and German and he professes that English is his first language and laughs when people call him a liar because of his perfect accent. He might not be the most powerful, but a polyglot witch could be useful for something. And who knows, maybe there's more to it.
Maybe someone would care to find out.

Hm.
"I am okay with you occasionally showing up and poking me for my power to follow witches if you use my power to also aim for terrible people to eat," he says, because this is a very reasonable thing to ask of her, he thinks.

"Suits me fine! Where do you usually hang out? I'll lose your power as soon as I pick up another."
"For the foreseeable future it looks like it'll be England, I'll let you know if it changes."
Slightly risky, kind of puts her in the same area his sister will be in, but he thinks Yvette will actually want to get help with her power anyway. And if she doesn't, he will tell Addy to meet him elsewhere for power pokes.

"England's lousy with vampires and my own witchcraft doesn't have the range to sweep the place, do you wander the whole thing?"

"All right. But just as well if you find me when you want to do more studying. Easier for you."

"Some of them. But tracking powers are easier to power up than some of the more esoteric things."

Addy has met many witch powers, and loves talking about them and the things she could get them to do!
Blair learns some very interesting things about witch powers! This is good, he wanted to know about witch powers. He did not know enough about them before. There's a logic to them, it's fascinating.
But! Eventually Addy's human returns, and Blair would not like to freak the human out with The Second Strange Vampire; he bids Addy farewell and goes back to England.
He finds his sister. He tells her about the witch teacher who's kind of amoral but also really good at her job. ... Yvette is kind of uncomfortable with this but her power does not invade privacy and is highly fiddly. She could use a witch teacher.
She wraps up what things there are to wrap up in Oxford, and then Blair leads her back to Addy. ... And then persuades her to make the equivalent of ten thousand francs in twenty-four carat gold. Because it's funny.
Addy where are you, Blair has got a present. And a sister. He has both of those things!

Addy is in Estonia with a set of twins who do vocal mimicry and silent movement, respectively.

They're humans. They sleep. Addy is currently moving silently but that's no obstacle to Blair.
Nope!
"Hi, Addy!" says Blair, lightly. "I got you a present."
He holds up his bag of gold triumphantly.
