Sophie stared up at him raptly as the man - the wizard! - talked about the book, clutching the object in question a little closer to her chest, as if someone was going to come along and snatch it from her. "Like Cinderella!" she interjected with a large grin, continuing to smile as he spoke.
She shrieked in delight as the butterfly came to life, saying excitedly, "Daddy, look! It's a flutterby!"
Bryce leaned down to scoop his daughter up in his arm, settling her on his hip in a motion that spoke of much practice as he asked, "I'm sorry, it's a what?" He'd decide to make his way over when Sophie had taken it upon herself to ask about magic - he'd heard that even from his seat across the room, and figured the he should probably be involved in any conversations on that subject matter, at least for a while.
Sophie paused, thoughtful for a moment before she answered, "A butterfly!", holding it out to show him where it rested in her tiny palm. "Are you a wizard too Daddy?" she then asked, apropos of nothing, though Bryce was long accustomed to never knowing how his girl would change topics. "Why don't you do magic?"
He didn't sigh - experience had thought him that doing so at Sophie's questions made her pout, which wasn't something he wanted to deal with presently - and instead answered, "Yes, I am, and for very complicated reasons that I will explain when you are older." Turning to look at the man, Bryce offered an apology. "Sorry about her hijacking you into a conversation. Books are pretty much her favorite thing."
