They perform some more magic tests and run out of mana and recover mana and perform more tests and a second sleepover could be fun but it's decided that people can do coordinated tests in their own places and there is not actually a need for them to all be in the same place. The Maxwells' driver takes Jess home (and Maya, too, if she prefers that to staying with the Maxwells but they assure her she's welcome to stay there), then takes Sadde, Theo, and Tyler to the Farron residence, where Sadde prefers to be dropped—he'll go to his place by public transportation, he'd like to talk to the—twins?—yes, thank you, it was a pleasure meeting you.
"Probably," he agrees. "But it's nonverbal and possibly useful since it was done accidentally. It at least suggests that sorcery can be done much more flexibly than we've been doing so far."
"Mmmmaybe. I'm not so sure. I've been able to do mine purposefully since always and it hasn't been too flexible."
"… Well, we might not be able to tap into the flexibility with our current understanding but if the superspeed can occur nonverbally, we might be able to do other things like that too?"
"I am not totally sure," he responds. "I'd test but Theo might be embarrassed."
"Because it'd involve me jumping up from the sofa or something, then trying to run about to see if that worked, and gosh, if it failed that might just darned look so embarrassing or childish and I'm in his body, so."
Tyler shrugs, then tries jumping out of his seat quickly. Turns out to be 'fast for a regular human' in speed, and then he tries running a bit.
… He probably does not have it, from these results.
He does! And it doesn't kick in straight away, but it does in fact kick in to make him blur slightly and move – maybe double the speed? He really shouldn't be blurring for how slow it is, but even so.
"That is kinda hot," he opines. "Anyway, so guess you don't have the blurry thing."
"Probably not," agrees Tyler. "Unless it's somehow easier with the staff, but I think that's contrary to what Cerberus said?"
"I didn't like the jumping to get the Jump, but you were somewhat more limited in materials back then."
"You had – what, the Fly, Windy and Change? I'm not coming up with any amazing alternatives here except 'grab it before it had the chance to get anywhere', but you weren't expecting it so that's not doable."
"Maybe use Windy to trap it or—well we didn't know how to do sorcery then, yeah."
