One of the things I enjoyed back then, I would usually ask Will to take me to such events as they brought me a bit of excitement, of course, I had no one to watch them with other than the poker faced butler, but it was still better than nothing…

If one was to somehow force two similar poles of magnets to touch each other, they would normally explode away as soon as the power forcing them to be stuck together vanished.
