This potion is incredibly potent. Even someone as stoic as you are appears to have a field day."
sandra "Oh? Do you need help with your homework, or anything?"
john "No, everything is just fine here. I didn't mean to poison you..."
sandra "I didn't mean to! You've been kind enough to say I haven't been. I'm so sorry, and I hope this doesn't scar you."
john "It's fine, really. I'll tell you the rest."
sandra "Do you have to?"
john "No, there's nothing to worry about. I had to use this spell to get back to my body."
sandra "Well, I'm glad you had the courage to tell me the truth. That really wasn't a lie, though."
sandra "Could you give it to me? I was worried that {i}I{/i} might not be who I really am."
john "No, I'm fine. This is everything I knew it could be."
sandra "Well? Are you sure? That's not {i}happening{/i} normally."
john "No, nothing like that. It's something else."
sandra "Oh, I'm so sorry! Are you sure? That's nothing like me, is it?"
john "No, it's... pretty romantic to think that I'm a guy, or that I'm in love with a girl, and it's so alien to me that I didn't know it would be this way."
sandra "Well, at least I know it's not {i}happening{/i} every day."
john "At least I hope it isn't. I'm sure this whole thing was a big mistake."
sandra "You're absolutely right. I'm sorry for keeping you."
john "It was a big mistake? Really?"
sandra "Of course not. I'm so sorry, I swear."
john "I don't know what you're going through, but I do remember feeling something like that."
sandra "I know you did, too. I'm so sorry, I really didn't mean for things to come this way."
john "Thank you, I guess? It really was out of the question at first. I had to rely on what I had, and it worked out, but was that {i}enough{/i} for you?"
sandra "Well, I'm sure I was understanding. This isn't really out of the question..."
john "Really, Mom? What even happens to change magical potential?"
sandra "That's a good question. I think I have an idea, but it has to be based on something real. For example, do you get more magical the more time you spend as a girl? Or does magic just manifest itself more naturally in girls?"
john "I... don't know. I think it's natural. I think it's the manifestation of a Higher Will, I get more magical the more I spend time as a girl."
sandra "Okay, and if I'm being honest with you, I think it's a good question. I don't really know what you're going through at the moment, but I do know that if I didn't I'd be going through something really horrible."
sandra "I think it's fair to say that you two have been through a lot worse than I have, and for that I am eternally grateful."
john "Thank you, Ms. Winters."
sandra "It's very gratifying to hear that."
john "Do you have any tips? Any tricks up your sleeve?"
sandra "Oh, don't worry. I learned them all on my own. You just need to stay calm and carry on."
john "So, uh, Mom, do you have any tricks up your sleeve?"
sandra "Actually, if you're interested I suppose there is one thing I can teach you."
sandra "Do you know what it is?"
john "What? No!"
sandra "Well then, are you interested?"
john "What? I don't--"
sandra "Don't be so shy. I might tease you a bit, but I really appreciate it when you're willing to be the girl in our relationship."
john "I'm not sure if I'll be..."
sandra "I'm sure you'll be fine."
john "Thank you, Ms. Winters."
think "Am I really going to tell her my mom is a wizard?"
think "I mean, I would think with experience this would be a lot more difficult, but I'm sure she wouldn't be too concerned."
think "Well, I guess experience does matter. At least it does when it comes to catching bad guys."
think "Okay
