The man's reaction was intriguing, and Bryce found himself a little curious at what exactly he'd done to elicit it. There wasn't really any way to ask though, not without making everything awkward, which was about the last thing he wanted. So he did the only thing he could, and nodded in agreement with the comment, because he could definitely see how that sort of trick could come in handy. He did have a feeling that there was going to be a temper tantrum in his future when he couldn't recreate it, but that was hardly this stranger's fault.
Sophie's eyes widened at the offer to keep the paper animal, and she turned her head to look at Bryce, who couldn't help chuckling slightly at the expression on his daughter's face. "What do you say, princess," he prompted, and the girl grinned widely as she looked back at the man.
"Thank you!" she exclaimed, as though the butterfly had been the best thing to happen all day - which, knowing Sophie, it probably was, in her mind.
For some reason, Bryce was not quite ready to walk away - perhaps because this was the easiest conversation he'd had with anyone, especially magical, in quite some time. Still, it would be rude to hang around and intrude on the man's time, knowing that they had no real reason to stay. "We won't take up any more of your time," Bryce started. "But thanks. I'm glad she didn't scare you off with her exuberance."
"I'm not scary, Daddy," Sophie interjected with a roll of her eyes, making Bryce chuckle once more.
