"I wanna set things on fire! Maybe..."

She tries combining red and black. It works. She giggles.

"Pretty."

"I am the master of all elements!"

He winks. "Don't let Nat hear that."

"I'm way better than she is. Hmm... I think..." She envelops a rock in white. It starts floating. "I'm getting the hang of this."

"Can you do colours people can't usually see?"

"Like what?"

"Ultraviolet, infrared?"

She tries one of these invisible colours. It makes stuff glow. "That's ultraviolet." Then infrared causes it to start vibrating and moving and shaking and jumping a lot.

"Doesn't seem very stable."

"I want something other than sand and rocks to practice on."

"Like?"

"Dunno. Mice."

"Maybe not something so...alive?"

She pouts. "But that's the fun!"

He giggles, a little warily. 

And now Michael is walking out from the surf, a thoroughly painted Lilly in hand. "We're baaack!"

"There were mermaids they were so cool!"

...yeah Sadde's noping out of there.

"There were mermen, too."

"Yeah all of those. They're gray but it's like dolphins and they make clicking noises and it's so great!!!"

"I know, right? I think they liked you."

"I got all painted look!" She runs up to one of the extant Williams to show him. He nods solemnly.

"And we saw a baby being born."

"Yyyyeeeeeah it was icky."

"It was the miracle of life!"
