I beg of you, someone, tell me this: how is it that a person can disappear before your eyes? What power compels this?

vague - or not, sisters in stoicism, observations of fishbowl culture, ! journal entry

The power that compels everything else in this place that shouldn't be possible.

And what power is that?

I couldn't tell you. 'Magic' seems to sum it up best, unfortunately.

That is a rather vague term, isn't it.

Yes. It conveniently covers everything that lacks an actual explanation.

Not quite everything.

You have a better term for this power?

No, but I don't presume all unexplainable phenomena to be magic.

It seems like the default explanation here. I'd prefer a better one, but I don't have one.

That is the purpose of research.

It doesn't appreciate being researched. [struck quickly]

I do not plan to let that stop me.
