"I can make a lot of stuff but inorganics disappear when they leave my person - like if I took off my shoe and put it down it'd evaporate into nothing. So I can wear all the diamonds I want but I can't sell them. Pearls and plants and coral and narwhal horns and stuff like that I can grow, though, and that stays when removed like nail trimmings do."

"Innnnnnnteresting. What's the definition of organic? How well do you have to understand a thing to grow it?"

"The magic can fill in some blanks in order to achieve whatever I am driving at cosmetically speaking. But if I make, like, a - you don't have electronics - if I make a... gun... then it won't fire because I don't know how a gun works and something can look exactly like one without working. This is not actually first and foremost a utility power, it's first and foremost an aesthetic power, our magic cares about how pretty we are and this supports that and merely has useful side effects. Organic is something that a living thing grows but I don't know if having learned that in your universe stars are alive I can now manifest stellar plasma."

"What I was wondering was if you could make this," Lucy says, and her hand turns diamond-clear and starts glowing. 

(That stubbed toe Xander had? Super gone.)

"Gosh. Uh. I think I want to wait to experiment with that because I do not know its point cost and cannot look it up. 'Point cost' meaning - you can assign a number to any body modification and add them all up and if you go over a certain number, cryptid. So I'm willing to try that because it doesn't look like it would be very expensive to grow a little bit of it but I want to go down to one wing beforehand to be extra safe even though I'm well under threshold."

"You always get your coverts wrong. Even with the other wing right there to compare! Every time!"

"Then I guess I need practice, don't I."

"That's fair," Lucy agrees, and then puts the glowy diamondness away as the vehicle pulls up. 

"Hi, please tell me you speak English," she says. 

The man in the...hover-wagon? blinks at her. "Why would I not speak English?" Then he looks at Isabella and does a double-take. 

"We have been having the weirdest day," she sighs. "Can we have a ride to town. We can pay you." 

"Ah...alright," he says, still sort of gaping at Isabella. 

She folds her wings smaller and gets into the hover-wagon with the others. "In pearls," she clarifies.

"Alright," the man says, bemused but not displeased. "Ah...if you don't mind my asking..."

"Yes?" she says blandly, not looking at him, starscaping to see about making a few pearls in the back of her hand and aaahthatfeelsweird but she reaches up her sleeve as though scratching an itch and digs them out and it's over. She pockets the pearls to hand over later.

"Erm, those look awfully real. Where did you find them?"

"They're homemade."

"Oh. You're very good at it." 

"Good craftsmanship is a skill everyone should cultivate!" Lucy interjects brightly. "I made this dress, isn't it lovely?" 

"Oh! Well, it certainly is, I don't think I've ever seen a dress that fancy." 

"The secret is three parts skill, one part love, and one part spite," she says merrily, then shoots Bella an are you okay sort of glance. 

Bella offers her a note which reads I don't really know how to explain being a magical girl and don't know how he'd react. Some people don't like magical girls much and this guy doesn't even know what we are. She has to hold onto the note but she can hold it for Lucy to read.

Lucy reads it and nods, then continues engaging the man in light conversation largely about her dress so he doesn't have time to inquire further before they reach the town. 

"Thank you so much!" she says and hops down once they arrive. 

"Yeah, we really appreciate it!" says Xander, helping Isabella down.

Isabella takes a pearl out of her pocket and offers it to the driver.

The driver accepts it and continues on his way. 

The town is an odd combination of Western and Chinese architecture that does nothing to diminish the almost palpable air of "agriculture-focused small town" 

Lots of people give the three of them weird looks, between Isabella's wings and absurd beauty and Lucy's ridiculously fancy dress.
