"does magic get... weaker here or somethin'?" he asks, idly commanding his mage hand to turn the book page that he's reading.
he knows better than to judge the metaphorical book by its cover, but the guy looks kinda like the wizarding type - plus he's also in the section of the library that dealt more with the arcane, so he feels like it's a pretty good chance that he might know more than he does.
"like, i still know the spells, still perform 'em correctly with all the right components, but they just...ain't workin'. only mage hand." he gestures weakly to the spectral hand as it skitters towards another book to drag it closer to him. even more perplexing, he still feels magic here - it's still accessible in theory just... not to him, apparently.
