Sadde shrugs and looks at Ev again.

Can she poke the thread between Theo and the bowl from afar, because like, if she can she's totally gonna.

Bit harder? But yeah.

"Got anything?"

Theo looks down at the bowl, momentarily.

"Maybe? I can poke them."

"And?"

"And Theo went to get a bowl and then looked at it when I poked at the cupboard and at the bowl. Between him and them. So."

Pause. "Seriously?"

She shrugs.

"Oooh that's cool, your magic's silly these threads aren't boring."

"They are extremely boring to look at."

"But actually probably rather useful to use."

"Yeah. What should I try next, something between you two?"

"That seems potentially interesting."

Any neat thread she can poke between them? Are there several of them, she'll poke whichever looks least boring.

Several of them, yes, with varying degrees of boringness.

Least boring one she can identify within a couple of seconds! She pokes at that.

Sadde glances at Theo, then at her again.

"—was that you?"

"Quite possibly. Or maybe it was just a coincidence."

She pokes it again.

"Was definitely you," she declares.

"That is – vaguely neat I guess? Okay so the threads can do non-boring things, yay threads, but they're still horribly boring."

"It feels almost like you contradicted yourself there."

"I have no idea what you even mean by them being boring."

"They are – somehow extremely uninteresting to look at or talk about or want to talk about or do anything with?"

"What does that translate to in practice, though. Like, watching paint dry is boring, but I can still do it."
