Julie may not be from his version of Earth (a brash assumption, maybe, but most would recognize his name upon introduction) but Stephen can appreciate familiarity that apparently strings them together, all the same. The sameness that some realities share.

His smile quirks a little more pointedly. That sure is a way to describe Kylo, and maybe accurately enough. He can't claim to know the young man all that well, but he does have a very... Hot Topic-y air about him.]

That's interesting. [Should he consider directing Wanda to Kylo, too? ...Hm, maybe, but he'd like to know how she and Julie get on, first.] I didn't know he was another who intuited magic [the Force? Chaos?] naturally. Because that's what it sounds like it comes down to: innate versus learned talent.

[Though...] Not that the two can't intersect. I've gotten the impression that you're not all that interested in learning out of a book, but you could still find it helpful someday. Stop by my domain if you ever feel like it; it's hard to miss, a tall townhouse. You can see the Himalayas in the distance. I'm already teaching a few people, and I've got time [usually] for another.
