"I'm not."

Though.

"Doesn't that mean something?"

"...yeah, I am."

He realizes, with a bit of a wince.

"I guess I don't have a leg to stand on."

"It's not an insult."

He promises.

"It's just- a reality. Anyways. I think we've kind of- I think we should let that one sit. Except that, you obviously still have some worries about actually being a magic user."

"Okay. Then we can do the pressure valve relief stuff without translating it into actions you're going to learn."

He says;

"It will involve casting periodically, but just enough to be safe."

"We go out to the Enclosure, make a reservoir, and cast 'boil water' at it. Stand in a field, and you raise your arms and summon the summer storm. If you're- right now a literal tempest in a literal teakettle, think of how you'd let that kind of force out safely."

"Didn't you kill a bunch of people and then die in a magical explosion?"

Sorry, they're having a blunt day.

"That could happen again unless you deal with it."

"Unless our powers come back again. Unless there's a port- often when we go down to planets, our powers are returned- and many times we're kicked off the boat and don't get a choice about it. Unless you become a warden here and things are returned to you."

He reasons, gently.

"The magic hasn't stopped being a part of you, any more than it ever stopped being a part of me."

"In your philosophy. In mine, you are a secret spring of potential in a desolation."

He tells him.

"You can change the world."

"How much all this shit hurts."

Which it does, always has, in Quentin's experience.

"Yeah."

He says, and plucks his glasses off to polish them.

"Not always. But if everything in the world is a crushing battle, then magic is just- one tiny little edge over it."

"I mean, it depends. But yes."

Yes, for him.

"It's about mastery."

"For me, it was- the difference between feeling like things just happened to me, and like I was part of it. Like I could get purchase."

"When you can take a nail out, a door can't hold you."

He agrees, softly.

"I've never even used it for that- but I know."
