In response to people asking why doesn't Quinn West have Family Magic. Maybe its talent for wandless magic? Maybe talent for all magic? Maybe its something you get at the end of 7th year? Maybe its passed down through parents, and grandpa has been hopeing that quin would awaken it on his own? Maybe it has to be awakened on its own? Does every 'thoroughbred' family have Fam Maj? Is Quinn west even available for Fam Maj? Is Fam Maj based on birth-right? Are there requirements of Fam Maj that Quinn has not met yet? Maybe it activates once his soul, body, and mind are in sync for a year?(remember that just happened recently) What qualifies for Fam Maj? Are the books that grandpa west gave quin part of Fam Maj because its magic from the family? Are the potions tutoring from the butler part of Fam Maj? This is not me getting angry at the poster, I'm just giving reasonable explanations for why Quinn does not have Fam Maj yet never.
