I’ve switched. Everything is soaked! I can’t stop raining. How does Pepa do this?? I’m going to drown in my own rain! I’m actually going to flood the apartment and drown. Oh great, now there is thunder. This is madness.

	No es su culpa. Ella no está aquí. Solo tengo su magia en lugar de la mía. Your Spanish is getting very good, Sirius. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Thank you sir! I didn't understand everything you wrote but I knew some. If your magic does things you don't want it to then you have to be very very calm, even if you want to be sad or angry. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	falling_sand 2022-03-12 02:47 pm UTC (link)
	That is fantastic. You should be very proud of yourself. I understood what you were trying to tell me. That is good advice. I will try. Thank you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I tried to study lots and I have little books to read in Spanish now. It works! I used to do magic by accident when I was little but now I never do. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I can tell! I will have to tell your uncle how well you are doing. Really? You must have amazing self control. I even sometimes still have mistakes with my own power, and I've had it for 45 years. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	littlesirius 2022-03-13 08:45 am UTC (link)
	Yes please tell him! He thought maybe going to class would be a bad influence but it's not. Sometimes I make mistakes when I do spells too. Accidental magic is not that, it's when magic just happens because you do not have control of your emotions. It always happens to little children. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	There are strange things happening today! Pepa has never drowned anyone. Can you go outside the apartment? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Spanish falling_sand 2022-03-12 09:56 am UTC (link)
	Yes, and stranger to come yet. That is true. Good point, even as a teenager she never drowned anyone. Threatened it, but never did. Yes, but then other people might get stuck in the storm. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Spanish isabelamadrigal 2022-03-12 10:01 am UTC (link)
	You'll have to tell me later. Did she really? I can imagine that. Being caught in a storm outside isn't as bad as having your apartment ruined. I think you should go. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Spanish falling_sand 2022-03-12 10:19 am UTC (link)
	Nothing more to tell, that's all I know. I couldn't focus on anything particular. Neither could Dan, it's just a huge blur. Regularly, yeah. Or I'll freeze your face off, or do you want struck by lightening... ah, such love! True. I'll head to a park and hope no one gets caught in it along the way. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Spanish isabelamadrigal 2022-03-12 10:25 am UTC (link)
	That isn't like you at all. Do you think it's because your gift was changing? Did anything happen to Dan? She sounds worse than Luisa was when we were younger. It's hard to try to be graceful when your little sister keeps sneaking up behind you and picking you up. Which park? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Maybe. I thought it was because nothing was certain, everything is still up in the air. I don’t think so, I will have to ask him. We had bad headaches, but do not worry, Hannah Hale was able to help.

Haha sisters are the best/worst. Don’t think your mother was an innocent bystander. I’d plead her to fix some stupid injury, and she would do it but make the food as spicy as humanly possible or something and you’d have no choice but to go for it.

The one with Miguel’s plants. It’s getting better though. Distraction.

	Has that ever happened to you before? Getting headaches without any clear visions? Hannah's nice. I helped her with cooking for the magic class after Katarin got hurt. Mama did that?! It's hard to think of her ever not being...like she is, you know? Looking after all of us. I can meet you there, if you like. I'll bring an umbrella. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Spanish falling_sand 2022-03-12 05:56 pm UTC (link)
	Not to this extent. If it hurts, it's usually something big and important, or I've pushed it to far myself. There has always been something, even if it didn't make sense to me. Never a blur. Yes! Oh, it was all in good fun, Isa, no real malice in any of it. We were not always so... uptight. Thank you, that would be nice. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Spanish isabelamadrigal 2022-03-13 09:00 am UTC (link)
	Nobody's gift has ever changed like that before either. I hope it's what they've been saying, just something that happens sometimes and will fix itself. It's different when your children, maybe. There's less to worry about. I'll be there soon! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

It is this place. I haven’t felt as uncontrolled in decades. Nothing is fixed in time here. Nothing is fixed at all, actually.

When it was serious, she wouldn’t tease. Your mother always checked on me while others were busy running around trying to figure out what a vision meant. She cared less about that, and more about me as her brother. You are very like her.

Okay. It’s not as bad as it was. I’m trying to be calm.

	Yes. Yes, okay. Deep breaths, try to stay nice and calm and no one will get struck by lightening. It's all fine. Are you okay? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Ay, I was going to leave it there, but you can’t just say “I’m fine” again and expect it to sound convincing. You’ve not been “fine” since long before changing gender. I don’t need a special gift to see that much.

If you don’t want to talk to me about it, I get it. That’s up to you. But find someone, because I know you are not fine, and there are many people here who care about you.

Okay?
