i made something for a presentation night and i thought it might be fun to share with you guys!! :) since i am an effective public speaker, my slides are bullet points and not just full write-ups of all my points. but i have written small presenters notes for the audience online <3

Hey idk who needs this but helpful reminder that "virgin blood" in any witchcraft shit that requires that means "virgin" in the same sense as "virgin hair" means hair that hasn't been dyed or processed in any way, natural in the default sense. So no, "virgin blood" doesn't mean blood from a virgin, just blood that hasn't been used for any other kind of witchy shit earlier.

OH MY GOD!  I never noticed that before, but I always wondered why he offered to mow a lawn that clearly didn’t need to be mowed, but the bladeless mower makes it all a little clearer.  It’s a joke on him, played by his own brain.  The whole place is nothing but a fantasy triggered by the Djinn and since he’s hasn’t had a home in over two decades, he doesn’t really have much of a frame of reference for it.  But he’s built up an ideal of what that family home would look like, tacked together from bits he’s seen on television and from families he’s met over the years.  His brain says this is his family’s home and a home has a lawn that need to be mowed.  So he says the lawn needs to be mowed and he mows it (but with a mower that can do nothing), to be helpful.
