"Yeah. A lot of the talk was about ways electricity can get out of the rubber and how that's dangerous."

Permalink

"It is. I'm glad they covered it in school for you."

Permalink

"They also covered fire stuff but that was for if it was a house on fire, not a tree. And it assumed you didn't have rain magic."

Permalink

"You should know that a little rain cloud won't stop a really big fire. Firefighters still have to be ready to do their jobs on rainy days. If there's a really big fire, you should get away from it, not rain on it."

Permalink

"I'll get away from it first but it's not gonna hurt to rain on it, right?"

Permalink

"It actually depends on the kind of fire. You're not supposed to put water on grease fires or electrical fires - that doesn't mean fires that electricity started, it means ones that are going on by electrical things, I think, raining on the tree was fine because the tree wasn't electrical anymore after the lightning was gone."

"If you want to be an emergency responder who uses magic you'll probably want to respond to swarms instead of fires, that's all." Veronica pats her on the head.

"Okay. I wanna fight swarms anyway."

Permalink

"They need fighting!"

"Maybe if I work really hard I can be a Paladin someday."

Permalink

"I bet you can."

Permalink

"Paladins are really cool and fight really big monsters."

Permalink

"They are and they do! Do you want to go to the library today and find books about paladins?"

Permalink

"Sure! We have a few hours before I need to be at church - you can come with me and read your library books and attend the service if you want."

Permalink

So they have a walk to the library and can find the children's nonfiction about paladins.

Permalink

Oooh. How much children's nonfiction is there about paladins. 

Permalink

There are plenty of books about it! I Want To Be A Paladin, Kaiju In The Arctic, Pacific Paladins Photo Book, Inside a Paladin Helicopter, Children's Biography of Sarah Hunter, I Have My Own Theme Song!, Squad 313, Coast-To-Coast Guard, Paladins Abroad.

"How many books am I allowed to check out?"

Permalink

"Let's go ask."

The librarian can get her a library card and inform her that she can't have more than fifty items out at once on a children's card.

Permalink

 

...

She checks out fifty children's nonfiction books, including every one they have about paladins, a couple of children's-level fashion books, and some stuff about swarm response.

Veronica shows her how to make her costume extend to a wagon on the ground. "The wagon will disappear once it's not attached and it's not very pretty but we can get them to church this way."

Permalink

Oh that's cool. She puts the books in the temporary wagon. Making the wagon pretty enough to not ding her at all would probably be really really hard but she makes it purple with gold sparkles anyway.
