The colour (and shape!) of magic

........ Big and small, it was true. Her mouth twisted into an unhappy grimace when he said that he knew everything and she did not. It was not fair, it was not her fault that she was so small. Maybe when she got her big bum she would be smart too. Ho-no-ré was weird name, she had never heard it before. Ho-man was much easier to both pronounce and remember. He seemed aggravated, but so was she. She had never really been annoyed at anyone before, but this was mainly because he had only confused her, then he had confused her some more. He held her tightly, too tightly for her liking, although she usually worshipped physical contact. That was with the people she loved, and she did not know this strange adult very well. Not enough to be held like this, at least not against her will. He said he wanted to meet her mommy, and the girl nodded enthusiastically. She was going to tell on him and say that Ho-man wanted her to kiss him even though he had taken Noir away from the baby snakes. She wriggled a bit as a signal to be put down on the ground. ”Okay, is not far she will not kiss you Noir thinks.” She let this fact sink in for a moment before she turned around and lead the way to the family den. She wished she could have brought her snakes baby, but maybe Tayui would make the man go back for it so that Noir could have it. She hoped so.
