When Tilluster College expels you, they do it up right.
Because, speaking from experience, they tied a bow on it real good.
They didn’t strip my powers, because it turns out they can’t. But they made
sure that this dumpster rat went back into the regular world, the world
without magic, with an underline that was hard to forget.
We will kill everyone you love one by one if you expose us.
All righty, then.
Gotta make sure that nobody knows about their careful, civilized,
controlled school of magic. Because sure, they’ll give a white trash queer
kid like me a taste of three meals a day, AC all the time, and a bed in a
frame. But they’ll also snatch it back if that white trash queer kid can’t get
their wild magic to behave.
I can’t help that my fire wants to leap into the sky. That when I draw a
wind, it wants to scream through the trees. And that when I step onto the
rickety porch of my trailer, the ground rumbles. I call the trash cans back to
their home, a little rectangle made out of white plastic fence, to hide them.
Mom built it, just like she plants the roses around the trailer’s skirt. Our plot
of land is barely big enough to hold our old single-wide, but Mom does her
best to make it beautiful.
With a nod, I nudge the lids closed and smirk. Tilluster would not
approve. What a low way to use magic, they’d say. What a way to debase
such a rare gift.
Yeah, well, they can suck it.
Cool, slightly humid darkness swallows me when I step inside. I could
flip on a light with a glance. Instead, I pat the air in search of the wall,
confident of my steps in the dark.
Mom’s been on third shift lately, and that means we make the trailer
into a forever night. The daytime blackouts turn my house into a dome
beneath the sea. Only the train disturbs the quiet, loud with its whistle,
sending little earthquakes to shake the floor and rattle the silverware in the
sink.
The rubbled wallpaper on the hallway walls leads me to my room. I let
magic open the door for me again, defiant. Bring on that debasing, baby.
Drag it down in the dirt, roll with it, get it filthy. I use magic to wash dishes
and flush toilets too, and right now, I use it to make my bed and call my
earbuds into my hands.
If I wanted, I could make everything in this room rattle. I could raise it
in the air, spin it around like a whirlwind. If I wanted, I could set it on fire,
or blast it to pieces with lightning called to my hands. If I wanted, if I
wanted—
If I wanted to prove Tilluster College right: That I was dangerous. Out
of control. Unteachable.
