Then here are three wands. 

Hold person works as before; sometimes it sticks her, but she's usually able to throw it off in a few seconds. Hideous laughter usually has no effect but occasionally causes her to collapse on the ground in mad giggles for a few seconds. Color spray usually has no effect but occasionally completely knocks her out, and then leaves her blind and stunned for a while after. It's no fun, but it's very temporary.

He doesn't like knocking her out; no misfortune happens but the debt jumps.

She swaps out the color spray wand for a forced quiet wand. Now if she fails her save she just can't make loud sounds.

Yeah that's fine.

Then after some amount of this she can check her spellbook.

Spell: Matchmaker

You can cause two people who should really get to know each other better to have an interesting magic adventure that might help them appreciate each other.

To learn this spell, hold someone who is yours. Tell them about a time when you noticed a trait of theirs you appreciate.

"Well that is not what I expected to get."

"Hmm?"

It's called "Matchmaker". It says "You can cause two people who should really get to know each other better to have an interesting magic adventure that might help them appreciate each other."

That's... moderately bizarre.

I guess we did spend a lot of today looking for a new you and new me so there'd be one for Valentine.

Permalink

....I guess I did sort of make contact with a parallel universe mostly in order to find Valentine a date. 

I'm... not sure whether I should take it?

Permalink

Is there any reason not to?

Permalink

Because using it on people is, like - sketchy and manipulative?

Permalink

It's not like the love spell! It just makes them notice they like each other if they do like each other.

Permalink

I guess. I feel like it's kind of ambiguous what exactly it does to people. Like most of the spells are before they're tested. I'm not really sure whether there are ethical ways to test it.

Permalink

It seems fine to me.

Permalink

Well, yeah, but you're - you. I think you're maybe harder to hurt than most people.

Permalink

Fairies might be, in general. You could test it on fairies I guess.

Permalink

I guess? I don't know if I know any fairies who should really get to know each other.

Permalink

We could find Matt a boyfriend? Everyone else seems all set honestly.

Permalink

Yeah, but the spell only works if you already have both people to target. I think. I guess I don't know. Also I feel really weird doing coincidence manipulation on Matt.

Permalink

Why?

Permalink

Because I'd feel weird about him doing it on me? I think. I guess I'm not completely sure. Might depend on what it was about.

Permalink

I guess that makes sense. 

I still think it's a neat spell to have.

Permalink

I guess I might as well take it. Don't have to use it on anybody.

Anybody you think should have it used on them?
