To hear her mother give the concept credence is all it takes for a grin to split right across her face and let a happy peep of a squeal slip as her shoulders curl upward. As an avid fan of fantasy, she can be nothing less than delighted at the mere possibility of honest magic. Wiggling her feet hanging in the air, Nel contains the desire to jump up and run in circles by instead snuggling in against her mother’s front.
While Sadie tempers the use of the word, the child is convinced until given an alternative explanation. Science is fun, and she enjoys learning about how the world holds itself in a balance that allows life to exist. But magic!
The appearance of the cat on the phone is promptly appreciated wih a soft ‘ooo’ in awe, and she listens to every detail. Private calls or messages are possible, though Nel wonders if she can memorize other numbers well enough to make use of that function. Then, Sadie reveals just how private this network happens to be. Nel becomes still as she stares at the phone with her brows knitting and eyes narrowing slightly before her gaze turns curiously up to her mother, “...but my mum can hear you and see your writing.”
