The artistry. The lore. Maybe. Probably not usually. That might be too much to expect of most eleven year olds.

"Hmm," Zeke replied, then gave a little nod, and held out the box so that the wand right be returned. "I think you're absolutely right. Let's see if we can't find another that suits you better."

He smiled again, then went off to peruse his shelves, returning a few moments later with a second wand box. He lifted off the lid, and offered the wand to the boy instead. "Here we go; you know what to do!"
Though failing to get his wand on the first try meant more waiting, somehow this time he didn't mind at all. It truly did only feel like a few moments, like he had blinked and immediately there was another wand being presented to him.

!!!

Another!! Wand!!

Zephyr didn't hesitate by staring at the wand first this time, but the awe in his expression had returned even as he picked it up. This time, a comfortable warmth spread up his arm. And when he waved the wand, several sparks erupted from the end of it like tiny multi-colored fireworks, green and purple and orange.

"Wow..." That was... That had to be it. This HAD to be the one!!!

He beamed. "It's perfect! It- No, wait, it's- it's WANDerful!" He had that one saved in the back of his mind for AGES for this exact moment.
