The Magician: Just Like Magic

Tarot - Magician

Just Like Magic

John Murdoch found it difficult, sometimes, to remember that the past was not actually reality. His childhood was complete, and yet not complete. Things that should have made an impression on a young child were absent - birthday parties, his first crush, first kiss. In fact, he couldn't remember any part of school at all, other than his lessons with Schreber. Daniel.

It was a strange puzzle to figure out, and if he hadn't known that his memories were synthesized to begin with, it may well have drove him mad. For Daniel was every role in his dreams - teacher, policeman, neighbor, firefighter, it went on and on. He even remembered Daniel cleaning out fish tanks. Daniel taught and guided him, advised him, rescued him from the fire that killed his false-memory parents. And then, as John grew into adulthood, the mentor and teacher became a constant friend and solace.

The things that Daniel taught him were amazing - how to control and change matter with his mind, even levitate. How to control the machine under the city to make himself stronger. But for some reason, the memory that always came to mind first was when he thought of Daniel was when the blond man with the bright blue eyes had interrupted John from a date with Emma to give him a single red rose.
