trade my soul for a wish
This is a successor to "call me maybe", which is getting crowded.
Cam is dipping a grilled cheese sandwich into a bowl of tomato soup when he feels the summons. He goes ahead and grabs it. Doesn't even drop the sandwich.

Steel doesn't quite ask when she says, "I bet you can make better explosives than me."

He puts a thick sphere of ice around the entire structure to keep it contained. It's clear enough for her to see the entire building disintegrate into roughly one-cubic-inch pieces and collapse in a heap thereof inside the ice. Then a ramp of more ice grows under the sphere and it rolls away from the canyon, pile of bits in it. The ice melts, apparently spontaneously, and then the pile of stuff catches fire.

He describes his ability to make things as a non-transferable form of magic. He lists the real limits that will make sense in context (things cannot appear in motion, he can't appear things he knows nothing about) and asserts that he can't make anything complicated without design input into it (that should stop them from trying to sneak anything past him he doesn't like).
He lists some things electricity can do. With appropriate infrastructure - unmanned, low- to zero-maintenance, nonexpert-controllable light, heat, transport, communication and computing technology, household appliances, industrial processing - he stops short of talking about electric string instruments. Just won't have the right impact without a demo.
He shows it to Steel in its draft form on his computer screen. "How's this look?"
