Weeks pass, and he doesn't catch a single card.
When cards become active, he goes looking. They just disappear before he gets there.
He's getting worried, and he's not sure he's satisfied with Kero's explanations.
He tries to focus on school.
"Boo, you're such a killjoy. Honestly, how did you get the worst of both parents?"
He ruffles Alistair's hair and leads them downstairs.
And then they're on the deck, overlooking the backyard.
As promised, there is a grill. There's also plenty of wood, of course. She might want to be careful.
There's a glint of light in the grill, which grows in warmth as she speaks. In moments, it looks like the metal is giving off its own sunlight- and as the light grows, the grill ignites.
The light fades, and the flame steadies.
"I should call my mom about it but it should be okay," she says, staring at the flames, giddy with excitement.
...okay. She calls her mom and informs her of her dinner plans (and magic!!!!!) and hangs up.
Here's Mr. Argent!
The vegetables are kabobed and the hot dogs are enbunned.
He heads outside to start grilling.
