"How did you get past the ground floor?"

"Someone helped me."

"Who?"

"—I'm not sure I should say, wouldn't want them to get in trouble."

"I'm calling security -"

She sighs. "It was Allocator Savo."

"...he really can't stop being stupid for a minute at a stretch, can he. I'm going to escort you out and that can be that."

"Do you think, if it turned out to be true that I can literally transmute any materials into any other materials, that Governor Avalor would be extremely happy about this decision?" And just for demonstration she starts growing wings again.

"I do not have to entertain every crackpot who thinks they can turn moons into honey rain." She marches toward the elevator and clearly expects Kaede to follow.

She turns all of the secretary's clothes a bright lime green.

She's not looking at her clothes and does not notice.

She turns the elevator gold, then.

(Not, like, the actual meat of it, just the surface parts, nothing that will change the weight much.)

The secretary startles.

"I'm not a crackpot, I can literally turn anything into anything else, if you'd given me as much time as you've already wasted here to prove it I could have." Her wings are almost fully grown now.

...She notices her clothes and shrieks.

She turns them back to their regular colour. "I'm not a crackpot," she repeats.

"Please fix the elevator."

(Someone peeps out of a different office.)

She fixes it.

(Peeper out of a different office asks yellow lady what's going on, does she need security. Yellow lady looks nervously at Kaede, which is taken as an answer.)

She sighs again. "Do you still not believe me?"

"It's clear something is going on," says yellow lady. Peeker retreats into his office.

"Yes, and the something is 'I have previously unheard of magic and would like to use it for the good of your country and don't have a good means of contacting someone who can help me achieve this goal'."

The elevator doors open and some security guards come out.

"What's the problem?" the ask the yellow.

"I'm - I'm not sure -"

"I have accidentally startled her and her colleague saw that and inferred he should call you."

"Are you authorized to be on this floor?" a security guard asks.
