She brings up google, and - she's bad with words, can he type it in for her?

"...okay, just this once. Use the telepathy all the time and it makes you rusty? You oughta brush up."

Nope, she has a disability, she's never been able to remember words right. It was pretty awful before she got the magic.

"Wow, huh."

Yup. So, video - that definitely looks too complicated for her magic, with the screen and all. She'll double-check wikipedia to be sure, though... hm, she could maybe rig something up, magnets are usually fine, but she'd have to know more about how it works. Which is always fun to learn about; he should check next time he needs one whether she's figured it out.

"Sure thing."

Cool. Anything else?

"I think that's all. You think you can find your way back to the park from here okay?"

Mmhmm. She might look around a little but she'll be either here or there for most of the day, she thinks.

"Cool. Let me know if you need anything else!" And he lets himself out.

While she's got the computer right here, what does the news have to say about last night?

An extremely realistic cosplayer of a character from an obscure webcomic with two hastily doodled installments alarmed people last night! The character is telepathic, but of course the real incident was just mimicking telepathy with a cunning audio trick, the details of which are unfortunately too proprietary for the reporters to have gotten ahold of. (The webcomic character's name is "Rheeba".)

That's hilarious. She wonders what they would have done if someone had gotten pictures of her flying.

She's going to need an email account, if she's stuck here and people she wants to talk to aren't - it's going to be a pain and a half getting something set up to let her reply, but one-way communication is better than none at all. RheebaTheMoth@gmail.com is free; she claims it.

That's all she needs from the internet right now; she finds the librarian, explains her situation, and asks if they have any recommendations for what she should read to learn about this world.

"Gosh, I guess you'd need about the same things as any new turned critter, wouldn't you?" She has a standard list for that: Creatures and Cryptids (they use the word differently here), Welcome to Avalon, and Medallion Magic.

Welcome to Avalon sounds like the place to start; can she check it out or does she need to do something special to get a library card?

She can get a library card pretty easily.

Welcome to Avalon is about Avalons generically but it's a cheery introduction to the town-within-a-town setup and has fun facts (fun fact: the pond is probably inhabited! fun fact: the Internet has improved the economic situation of monsters very greatly, and before that, phones did the same thing! fun fact: some of the magic used to create the conveniences of some Avalons is lost now!)

She doesn't do much more than skim it before heading back to the park.

May's still there, eating some takeout sushi.

Hi!

"Hi! I didn't know when you were coming back so I got lunch without you but let me know whenever you're hungry."

She might skip it, anyway, she usually only eats twice a day. Thanks, though.

They're probably going to try to make her have grownups and go to school, that's going to be a mess.

"I can see why it would be a mess, yeah. What time of year is it at home for you?"

Late January.

"Well, that's no good, I would have said you should claim you deserve the rest of your summer vacation if it'd been summer. I mean, I suppose you could lie."

She'll be a little surprised if it works but it's worth a try, anyway, yeah.
