Eventually Bella and Lexi go to bed - they have to coordinate this; Bella's a reasonably sound sleeper but Lexi's not, so if Bella goes to sleep first Lexi won't be able to drop off with all the random nouns and if Bella goes to sleep second Lexi will wake up when she's trying to sneak around. They get up, and they get ready for school.

+Morning, Brilliance,+ says Bella while she's brushing her teeth.

"I think long-form incantations are our friend here again," he says. "They're more flexible. Tell the sand you want it to sort itself. Uh, they tend to be kind of poetic, but I don't think that's actually a requirement except that it maybe makes them easier to remember."

Radiating out from Bella in a wave, the top inch or so of sand lifts into the air and settles back down sorted by hue, with red to her left sweeping through orange, yellow, green, blue, and finally various purples all the way on her right. The edges of the sorted patch fade back into the multicoloured sand; the wave of colour-sorting dies down about a hundred feet away.

There is definitely a feel to this spell that's different from the smaller, simpler, more focused spells she's been casting so far.

"Rainbow sand," Brilliance agrees. "Pretty cool, huh?"

Nope.

"Try just, like - part of that at a time," offers Brilliance. "Like, melt some, then melt some without letting it get hot. I'm not sure how to handle the clear-glass part."

The sand glows and runs together into a perfectly circular puddle, then cools.

There's more responsiveness in a long-form spell; it gives her feedback about the successful melting-together of the sand. And this one, thanks to the temperature, doesn't end up with extra grains stuck all over it.

It's hard to tell with all the discs just lying there, but the purple one definitely looks flatter and smoother and with fewer impurities than the other two.

The purple one definitely has fewer flaws and impurities. Not none, but fewer.

There is still feedback from the spell, silently showing/feeling how the sand comes together into glass. It goes even better this time.

"Yeah," says Brilliance. "I think you've got saying the spell down right, but you're letting up a little when you do the spell - there's not as much doing with the short-form incantations."

"Yeah," he says. "You can feel the details happening, right? Those are yours, you're doing that. You have to kind of... work with it."
