I Gotta Feeling
I noticed a theme in "The Wizards of Perfil" that was also in "Stone Animals." The characters feel the supernatural qualities of objects. The characters in "Stone Animals" frequently state that objects feel haunted. In "The Wizards of Perfil," "Some things felt more magic-soaked than other things" (44).

That was also in The Constable of Abal when Ozma goes into the room full of gods and goddesses. She doesn't trust her instincts at first so she picks up random objects, but she has a good feeling about the bowl and the plum, and they end up being the two things she needs for Zilla and for the constable.
