"My point exactly!" I pointed at Peter with a teasing grin. "They are just big balls of weird plastic-y stuff and they make me think that I'm being distracted from something far more malicious."
Claire rolled her eyes, biting back laughter. "They're for school spirit," she explained as if to two simple children. "Because nothing says school spirit like large colorful random shakey things."
Laughing, I nodded. "Oh, it's all so clear now."
"Well, it's really quite obvious."
"I don't know why I didn't see it before."
Claire smiled at me, laughing herself. "You were distracted by the pom-poms?" she suggested innocently.
Peter's look made me blush and I shook my head. "He's exaggerating. Seriously. It's just some magic. It's not anything really special. What he can do - what you can do - that's cool." A proud smile crossed my face. "You should see him fly. It's amazing. Though I have to say I think the invisibility is my favorite. Or the telekinesis. No lie, Claire, he's amazing to watch."
Claire gave them both a look and started to laugh, putting her arm up to cover her face as if she had to cough. "Yeah, I'd like to see you both," she managed, grin impossibly wide. "I'm sure you are pretty cool together."
