Clear ways to decrease this panic and such? Or possibly another less drastic plan that appears to result in no really bad side effects against her but still gets quite a few people, how about that?

She's gonna have to settle on specific compromises if she wants to plan for them.

Okay so she'd rather not on the panic, and if she gets arrested she is okay with that so long as she gets released just fine from it, and if people are suspicious… what are they suspicious of? She doesn't care about people finding out about vampires or magic, but she'd care if they were suspicious this was some evil plot and correspondingly wanted to start witch hunts.

Her head is filled with a dizzying flurry of information that completely breaks her concentration.

"— Well it seems like it works for that unless 'tries to confuse me with information overload' is an equivalent failure to 'no response'."

"Okay... so I guess we can rule out bad interactions with magic?"

"Probably. At least for now. … I could try focusing on the results of attempting different turning methods, see how black-boxed it is for me to get information about turning?"

"I guess? Sounds as useful as any other plan."

What if Theo bites someone with intent, what happens if he does that to… uh, Matt, let's go with Matt. She can probably get Matt's cooperation here.

Presumably Matt will lose some blood?

… And can she see, magically, other results from this? Or is she gonna have to just do guesswork.

She can't really magically derive consequences of actions, it's the other way around. Unless she looks at the threads.

Sigh.

Are there any threads that look not-very-boring that might be related to Theo and Matt and biting or, like, something. She doubts it, but still.

"Not-very-boring"? No.

Sigh.

"I tried 'biting with intent' and got 'victim loses blood, poor victim'. Possibly non-magically derived."

"Did you try building a plan or?"

"I suggested Theo bite Matt – with intent – and was wondering what'd happen, more."

"Oh. That seems like it doesn't work, I guess."

"It didn't work all by itself, no, but I might be able to get something out of the threads eventually."

Sigh.

"Yeah. Guess your power treats each direction of the causality web pretty differently, huh?"

"Seems it," she agrees. "At least we worked out it's pretty much causality-related with a side of making unlikely things happen by– magic."

"Not sure I'd call that a 'side,' seems to be just the main thing."

"I mean, by direct application of magic I can levitate things – I was thinking the planning thing was probably the main thing, since direct applications for small things is probably less helpful."

"Ah. Yeah, I guess."

"Do you get different results if you try someone dying after being injected with blood, or ingesting it?"
