This is perhaps the strangest hallucination I have ever experienced. Tactile is not generally a component nor do I tend to believe I've lived two different childhoods. Can't be H.O.U.N.D. and I haven't used. Lucid dreaming, perhaps? Most likely though in that case I have rather lost control. Very odd indeed, but then I do seem to harbor the belief that this book will populate itself with responses and that I'm at a school for learning magic. It hardly does to only call one thing odd when so much is absolutely ridiculous. But I believe it. That shouldn't be possible.

I'll have to consider carefully how to move forward from here. I'm not sure how but it could be Moriarty. Makes as much sense as anything.

You'll help me anyway. I'm interesting and sound like I know what's going on.

While I would generally agree with you, I can't. I have another lifetime of memories which include the use of magic from their earliest. This place is a scholastic institution for teaching magic to children, in fact. Just look at the paintings, if you will. It's not a trick of machinery, they really are moving.

Yeah, not really thinking that's a good enough reason. I can figure things out on my own. Sort of what I'm known for.

Yeah, not really convincing. I can make half of the stuff here do what it does without claiming 'magic'. So can't really convince me of that. The main thing I'm curious about is the way they're delivering the power to everything while there's an EM blocker in place disrupting all of my own tech.

It's for safety. Most wizard children don't understand technology and there are some muggle children at school. Best not to give them too many distractions or means to contact the muggle world while invested in the wizarding one.

Yeah, that safety feature nearly killed me. So I'm kind of calling doubt on that.

Pacemaker? At your age? I wasn't aware you had a family history of heart disease.

Electromagnet and a power generator, keeps shrapnel out of my heart. But yeah, a high tech pacemaker kind of works for a basic and easy assessment, I guess.

Gone to the medical wing?

Didn't get much of a choice in the decision. I have hours before damage starts being done.

And you still don't believe in magic?

There's a logical reason behind it.

A lot of people think that the technology I produce comes from a sci fi movie, because it's so much more advanced than anything else out on the market. I mean I have a friend from the forties who was surprised that phones are so small and don't need cords anymore. It's all perspective. This is just a kind of technology or way of doing things that I've never seen before.

I really hate to have to continue to defend this but it really is magic. Leave it to you to be stubborn, Stark, even in the face of proof.

It's not stubborn, it's just exhausting all other possible notions. Occam's razor kind of thing.

Well, once you've eliminated the impossible, whatever remains must be possible. Hopefully you'll come to the correct conclusion before you're too much more of an idiot.

Not really into making friends. Are you?

No. Waste of time when I know I'm right.

Right about what? Me being a stupid? Because you're kind of really off base there.

You're generally not stupid but your insistence that magic is not real is.

Because I've never seen magic that couldn't be explained with a trick door, or through scientific wonder.

Fine, Tony. Be difficult. Personally, I'm just going to go and have fun.

I'm always difficult. But doesn't mean I can't have fun with it. Because really, I have a lot of fun.

I'm sure you do. Well, there's plenty of fun to have.

And I can promise you I'll be having it.

You do realize this is a school for children and not to hit on anything that resembles an adult, yes?

Yeah, because my first thought was to have a statutory rape charge filed against me. I have better things to do with my time.

Just making sure. Some people's bodies were the only things that changed after all.
