"I like the way classes are here."

"It can be fun, I wish we could just know... our powers, so we could pick a track already."

"Sometimes your birth blessings can tell a bit about that, too. Everyone thinks Raeni's gonna see the future or something, cause she has Vision and Time." 

"That would be really cool. She could see what her enemy will do and stop all attacks."

"Mhm! Most of us don't have that.... but you have Time, too, right?" She asks Tani, "Maybe your gemini power will be future stuff too."

"Yeah, but maybe it's not like that. They say it can be more waiting and I already have patience."

"Or you can be like the hero super-Moment and you can time stop, which would be cool too."

"If it means waiting that could mean super patience. Maybe that'll be your super power. I dunno how you'd use that for superheroing, though." 

"Ugh."

"Or maybe not." Ita reassures. "People think mine will let me make a lot of money, but maybe it won't I will just be a good cook or something." Pout. "Parik is sometimes mean about it, he wanted to have Wealth."

"He's mean about it? Why? We're probably all gonna have enough for a bunch of credits no matter what, 'specially when we figure out how to get to other planets with magic. What else would he do with money?" 

"I don't know. He just wants to be rich, I guess."

"Weird."

"We can tell him to stop if he annoys you too much." Shen says indicating his brother.

Kasi glances up and nods, "Your brother shouldn't be mean to you."

"Yeah, we'll all tell him," Lesi agrees. 

It doesn't take Mika long to find his mom - she's still in her office where they left her. 

"Mama! Come listen, Seni and I had some ideas for things to do with magic!"

She glances up at him, also spying Dasenifer coming down the hall behind her son. 

"Oh? What kind of ideas?" It's unlikely they have thought of anything the adults haven't, but it's always possible they missed something.

"We thought about using the magical lights to build underground farms or farms that are lit during the night and produce more food because of it."

"Hm, I'm not sure the second one would work. We had thought of the first one, though. The biggest problem with it is that there are only five of us with the ability to make enchanted objects, and the two of us who are fully trained in it need to spend our time on other things. Istevi is working on duplicating enchanted items, but he's not quite there yet." 

Seni thinks. "Maybe you could do a small test? A small garden underground lit by the kids lights so we can see it's works. It's important to run a small scale experiment before implementing anything big."

That was Mika's thought, too! "We've gotta make a lot of things to get better, anyway, right?"

"Well, I don't see why not," Lia agrees after a moment of thought. "That does sound like a good use for all of the light enchantments the three of you will be making. We'll need to see if your mother thinks it's a good idea before I make any promises, though," she adds to Dasenifer.

"I will write a project proposal for her." Seni says seriously.

(Adorable) 

"I'll let her know to expect something, then," she agrees. "You did a very good job taking initiative like this," she adds. "Let me know if you think of anything else."
