boredom hadn't been a place where stella drifted often into. adolescence of being an only child had left her self sufficient. her imagination could fill a drab moment if called for. most of her life under the watch of her mother had been a solo feeling. it wasn't until later when she gained knowledge of her sister, emery. would have childhood been different with another companion ? something she'd wondered many times, but always ended up being thankful emery hadn't been a part of her early chapters. stella faced a lot personally that most kids were lucky to not experience. "i hope you know ...i'm going to put makeup on you." whether you like it or not. stella smirked to her reflection.

"it'll be fun." the mascara brush swiped against her lashes. it was growing a little dry from time. wearing a face of makeup hadn't been much of a priority in arcadia. almost something to be thankful for. fresh faced. the amount of water she consumed without other options available had also been a blessing to her skin. something to be positive about in this hell town. "your last name is really bates, huh, and you ended up in a place like this...." blue eyes flickered to tobias in the mirror. "the universe has a funny sense of humor."

UGH YEAH like i can’t understand 100% because my fp was never in a different timezone than me but like??? i gotchu. it must be really terrible. like if they stay up on one hand its great bc theyre sacrificing sleep for you but on the other hand it’s shitty because they need sleep and it’s your fault theyre not getting it.

Clearly play is the answer

my fave thing to do for myself is to move energy. given i have a lot of energy buildup due to nerves, i have an excess of it. i generally either ground or put it to good use in a charm or spell. i also meditate & scry w/ smoke, from incense, and that’s a very calming thing to do as well. also, simply being in a circle is one of my favorite things. it’s a really wonderful experience.

my least fave thing to do is probably.... highly structured rituals? i just think that my own work happens best when it’s more laid back. i’m also an advocate of spells using ingredients that feel right more than what lore dictates is correct - because as i said, i believe magic to be a highly internalized affair.

my advice for any new witches would be to take your time, do what feels right, and stay positive. i see magic as more of an internal force. positivity breeds positivity, while negativity breeds negativity. i hold very closely to the rule of three. while i know some people choose not to, i personally think i’ve nurtured a healthier spirit because of focusing on creating good. if you ever need to get back at someone, i’d rec strategically blessing them or the people around them. ie, if you have a bad coworker, bless them with a new job opportunity elsewhere.

also for new witches: if you’re looking to choose a patron god, do your research. choose one that feels right to you. i personally adhere to athena, to guide me on my path, and to help me strategize my life. i also look to her for wisdom. no one has to choose a patron, of course, that’s a personal thing entirely, but if you do, take your time.
