Summary
Alex knows magic when he sees it, even if he can't do anything useful with it, or even talk about it properly. He's all but put his questions behind him, though. He's got the future to look forward to now: a big chance at making a major-league gridball team, then settling down with his awesome girlfriend Leslie.
It's not like the forces of Light and Void are about to fight over that future. It's not like painful, long-buried secrets from Pelican Town's past are about to turn Alex's life and the lives of half the townies upside down. Life has taught Alex he isn't that special, is he?
Is he?

Summary
What good could she even get out of moving to a small town in the middle of nowhere? The only things waiting for her there were manual labor and bugs. That wasn't the kind of life she wanted to live, even if her grandfather had made it seem like the best decision she could make. It was better for her to stay in the city, a place that offered her so much more: shops, restaurants, outdoor activities, a job she hated, a roommate she genuinely feared, and the crushing pressure of her desire to be happy.
Pelican Town had nothing to offer her, except...maybe a chance to be surrounded by people who would be kind to her and treat her like more than an object. Maybe it was a chance to get away from people who made their disappointment clear and people who made her question why she existed in the first place. Maybe she couldn't remember how to be happy, but that didn't mean she was undeserving of it.
And if moving away from everything she was used to could make her happy again, why not take the chance?
