Thomas was about to ask why Juan might think that it was strange that the Mademoiselle didn't age or sleep, after all when magic was taken into consideration the laws of nature suddenly became allot less like laws and a lot more like guidelines, when he realized that she might not have told Juan about her powers. Well if the Mademoiselle hadn't told him Thomas was not going to. The boy could just imagine how that would play out. "Sorry I told your friend about what could easily be the most important secret in the world but in my defense I didn't know that you didn't want him to know." he pictured himself telling the Mademoiselle. No, he decided, he would not reveal magic to the world at large and thereby cause people to start to panic and maybe even go out on mass witch-hunts. Thomas decided it would be best if he didn't verbally respond to what Juan had said and settled instead for nodding his head in a manner which he hoped looked as though he were just as confused as Juan seemed to be.
