The trope of "oh this is a universe where magic is real and totally normal, EXCEPT for this specific kind of magic, which is weird and mythical and people don't actually believe exists" is so bizarre

@Felthry I mean, my smartphone can't cast a glowing cross of light from the ground that kills basically everything it touches

@socks seriously though i think it's not entirely wrong to think of electricity and especially electronics as magic. just because it's well understood and stuff doesn't make it not

@socks it has limits! but so does any good magic system iin media
