Modern Witches
- Nervous witches collecting rainwater in mason jars and purifying it for non visibility spells. Dousing their wrists and necks and behind their ears to prevent unwanted attention.
- Witches brewing tea and coffee and leaving it to sit for days so that the spirits in their homes will be pleased.
- Twenty year old witches squinting at their scrawled runes in a composition notebook in a cramped apartment as they study for exams.
- Witches arming themselves with non-lethal hexes and curses when they have to walk at night in the city because you can never be too careful.
- Witches adopting their black cats from shelters, and maybe several other cats that aren’t black as well.
- Witches creating fairy lights of floating candles that sometimes drip wax on the floor but will refuse to burn the witch’s dwelling.
- Familiars doubling as therapy pets and service dogs.
You wake in the night with your arm hanging over the side of your bed. It is still dark, and your bedroom is shrouded in deep shadow. Something unseen seizes your hand.
You grasp it tightly, knowing that first impressions are important and a firm, confident handshake will establish dominance.
