It's like... someone on stage does something that looks like magic, with sleight of hand or trick props or hidden wires or whatever. The audience doesn't know the secret to how they do it, so they, um.... think it's pretty cool, I guess?
[ he's just like, do you not have non-opera theater, that seems like such a weirdly specific thing to default to ]
Uh... yeah! That's a pretty good way of looking at it, I think. It's not, like, malicious lying, and everyone knows it's not real, aside from maybe little kids.
[don't even get me started on genshin impact's entertainment systems they like opera and trading card games that sound like yugioh with the serial number filed off]
Interesting. I have seen children pretend they have Visions, so it isn't... so unfamiliar. [...] In any case. We have magic.

W-well, yeah?? I mean, everything being on fire when it isn't supposed to be is usually kind of a bad sign!

no, she just looks at him with a flat expression.]
Have you really never seen someone use a Vision before?

[ he disappointed her... ]
...Well, I mean, I see magic acts all the time, but not, um... real magic. That's... kind of not a thing where I'm from.
no subject
... You have magic, but not real magic? How? [please explain to her how a magician pulls a bunny out of his hat, simon,]
