"Pass for now. Might come back to it if I have points left over."

"Ability to summon Mammon to be ripped off for any purchase available for human currency anywhere?"

"What exactly is the utility of this one in the age of Amazon, if not the price?"

Permalink

"The service area."

Permalink

"Points?"

Permalink

"Two."

Permalink

"Nah, probably not worth it."

Permalink

"There is one that makes you a boy?"

Permalink

"Nope."

"Didn't think so. Prestidigitation is free for academics, must have - there is a dungeon and dragon named after it, if you know the game? -"

"Indeed I do. Hey, wait, portkeys, is J.K. Rowling a witch too?"

Permalink

"No, that one is just witches stealing the name out of a book because it's close enough, same as when we call people muggles."

Permalink

"But like, presumably teleportation magic existed before 1997 and you had a perfectly serviceable name for them then, so why change it?"

Permalink

"It was 'ferries' and people of particular dialect kept offending fairies."

"Fascinating that the release of Harry Potter coincided with the rise of wokeness like that. Well, assuming witch wokeness progressed at the same rate as muggle wokeness. Hey, wait, do people want to stop calling them portkeys now because of JKR's TERF arc? How does gender and sexuality even work in a whole parallel society where men are apparently rare enough that being one counts as a special perk?"

"I do not know what Ms. Rowling or her arc are doing, and as far as I know everyone speaking English calls them portkeys. Lots of witches like girls, or share boyfriends, or date non-witch boys. A weird number of witches are originally boys and then do not take the perk to be a boy and are girls after, fewer the other way round - not none though. Witches who are not trying to have boy babies will tend to have girl ones, if they are also witches - possible to have nonwitch babies, if they are not doing magic about it, those are boys half the time."

"Interesting. Anyways, next wild magic?"

Permalink

"Hypnotic suggestions with eye contact?"

Permalink

"A. How many points and B. How redundant is this one with psionics?"

Permalink

"Six and at your present psionics rank almost not at all."

Permalink

"What about at five?"

Permalink

"Then some, but you want psionics for editing memories and awareness, suggestion for directly getting an action you want without figuring out how they could be convinced."

Permalink

"And I have ten points left, right?"

Permalink

"Yes."

Permalink

"I'll take it now, but keep telling me about ones that cost more than four, I might dump it."
