[Guess who's a pro at this journal thing by now? That's right, Henry is. Magic 1 "Real World" 0.]

Sooo... is that normal? The changing worlds thing. Because it didn't seem like you guys were that surprised by it, but I always thought it was a big deal to go between worlds like that.

[And by "more often" he means "ever."

There's a pause, then hurriedly, like he forgot:]

Oh, yeah! And is there a lost and found somewhere? I'm looking for something.

[Guess who's not a pro at this journal thing? Grandpa. He's still worried people won't be able to hear him, so he's talking a little loudly.]

Changing worlds?

[fantasies]

[willalwaysfindyou]

[fantasies]

It's complicated.

[willalwaysfindyou]

[A small chuckle.] Okay. I'm listening.

[fantasies]

I'm Henry.

My mom's name is Emma.
