'Course there are. [And there's a pause. It's nice to see that the queen's two daughters have managed to get themselves a brother that isn't half as rotten as they're expected to be, but very strange to think (and sometimes easy to forget) that the boy is his son, too.] Name three.

[ It's quite possible that, if Giles had been born with not a drop of magic in him, that his mother wouldn't have bothered with him at all. Granted, that he was born a son is still considered something of a waste, but for little Giles that has unknowingly been his saving grace. Not much is expected from him beyond that: be a good boy, complete your lessons and say yes, mummy whenever she asks something you. So he's allowed to be something other than rotten. His sisters, on the other hand, won't be nearly as fortunate. ]

Um— [ He gives this considerable and quite serious thought before counting off on his fingers: ] Dinosaurs! Um, dragonflies! Um— ummmm. [ Giles tries to think of something his mother would like him to say. ] —magic?
