You catch a sharp edge to her sideways glance in his direction, yet the innocent smile remains in place and the warm croon of her voice betrays her humor as her eyes return to you.

She recognizes acceptance in your smile and with a small wave of her hand she speaks in lighthearted friendly tones, "My blogging is a call in the wild to find other like minds to share with. Is that you? Do you have the magic inside too?!"
