That much I'll grant you. I hope I've raised my girl not to do that unless it's ABSOLUTELY necessary.
...also, there really isn't magic where we come from. Not magic you can see and recognize, anyway. I actually did know or suspect that she might have it after her father did, but since it never manifested on its own, I never told her.
I've since learned it turns out ALL Brennan descendants can do magic, so that's my son, too. I'm not sure what, if anything, I'll do about that.
