"Analyses. There's a bunch, the one you've got on is just one example."

"Ooh, what others are there?"

"Ones to see different magic or represent it differently, we can try you on some more." Back inside.

"Cool! Also I'd like to see that one you said you used on yourself, for dragon magic."

"Sure, but like I said it's early in the development process -" Cast. Now Kaylo's magic is visible in pleasing blobs of various colors.

Oooh! Does this help any with the figuring things out thing?

The blobs are quite close together and many different sizes. "Can you figure out the color coding or should I explain it?"

"I can figure it out over a long while of staring. Explain away."

"Red's fire, brighter red is color group extra fire, blue's shapeshifting in five shades for five compartments, green's language, gray is the fancy dragon reproductive magic package, if you were looking at a different color they'd have a different brighter extra bit - violet, white, and black would not be doing the different shades of an existing color thing, and blue unusuals wouldn't have the shifting compartments, just a bigger brighter blob."

"What would violet, white, and black be doing? And what's the reproductive magic package?"

"Violet groups are aquatic, white groups fly better, black groups have sharper senses, and dragons have built in birth control and can pick kid gender."

"...can pick kid gender."

"Yeah. Not color or species where applicable, not number, but gender we can do."

"Hmm... Can you pick nonbinary?"

"...I don't think so, if that's ever happened with a dragon's kids it's probably somebody who decided not to pick."

"Then it's random?"

"Yeah. Does that part of the magic look really tangly or something to you, why's that interesting?"

"Oh, no, that's more... personal. 'Cause I'm genderfluid so I was curious."

"Well, it is statistically unlikely that there are dragons or thudias with whom you will identify in this way."

"Especially given your population size, yeah."

"Yup." Shrug. "Anyway, is the analysis helping?"

"Yeah, but not decisively, I think I'll still want another dragon to stare at."

"There's one other enrolled. Moonstone, I think?"

"What group is that?"

"White."
