Well, okay, now he has to make something up.

...No, nothing. He can't think of anything on the spot like this. Okay he will tell like a third of the truth.

"Magic flares. They're harmless, my Court just makes butterflies and rabbits and stuff."

Okay, so more like a... tenth of the truth.

Flares are embarrassing, but they only happen when someone has more than one kind of magic and one effect can accidentally trigger the other. Implying that he's got two kinds of magic at twenty six, when most people don't develop personal magic until their middle age, makes him look like a cool child prodigy. So, it balances out.

There are no holes in this logic because they aren't in space. Everyone is from Nephele. Thanks.
