Henry blinked several times. "Of course you can do that. How on earth do you think we communicated at distance before texting and the constant access to phones? Josie and I didn't attend the same school, but we couldn't tell any of our peers what all we were learning outside school so...so we'd talk about things. We never set up a system for alerts, but I can't imagine that would be all that hard. We were a little more concerned with other people being able to read it."

He waved all that off. "Nevermind all that. I could teach you. I'd be more than happy to." He'd even try not to be too smug about his analog ways finally becoming useful. "It'd be no problem at all to set something up that worked for you and Dean. Better if I show you how to do it than just do it myself. The enchantment relies on a central pivot, intent more than anything. No blood magic or curses or anything like that. Nothing weird or dangerous." He frowned. "i"m not doing a very good job at explaining it am I?"

He cleared his throat, trying to martial his enthusiasm just a bit. "Let's try that again. Yes you can enchant notebooks. You can enchant basically anything. Would you like to learn how?"
