I hope you enjoyed it, Miranda, because that would be the only time you'll feel something like that. Warmth, and...love

Two heartbeats, he said. I know they're missing today. It would be silly to even think...ahah...such a wonderful thing, pregnancy and birth. Something Exorcists won't enjoy

Are you really having so much trouble making your own magic?

--that's an awkward question to ask here, isn't it? You might really have magic. That's not what I meant.

What did you get out of reading those fairy tales?

It's probably that way for a lot of kids.

It's true most people grow out of fairy tales. You don't have to, but it happens a lot. Growing out of hope isn't such a good idea, though.
