[Yeah, this is all soooo... weird, as the person on the receiving end. To be fair, Lalli doing magic has always looked like Lalli just staring at things until something else suddenly happens, in Emil's experience, but there's something about him doing it while holding onto Emil's head that makes it doubly ridiculous.
Now, the sudden silence? Beautiful, merciful— Emil's expression brightens, apparently pleased with the success, at least until the next abrupt realization that when he can't hear any child in the room, he also can't hear Lalli. This was not part of the deal? No one could have predicted this, least of all Emil.]
Uhhhhhh. What?
[Don't worry, this soon-to-be frightening experience won't color his opinion of magic at all in the days to come. For sure.]
