"Magic is what makes fantasy fantastic," someone says, "you can't apply rules to them or else it loses wonder!" I respond, "Sure, but if you want to write them you will certainly want to know how they work."

Vin - (provided we could age her down)Sandra Bullock.
uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh? Maybe ten years ago she could have played Vin in the movie adaption of the third book...but she was -never- a very kickass type of actress.
