☽ Moon Water ☾

The dew of the morning spreads across every surface, sealing the magical charge of the moon inside.

Tea Witch Aesthetic ☕

perhaps, soon, i will be one with nature.

where i've always belonged.

do you feel it, too? everything feels off within the veil. the Earth is giving off signals, and no one can seem to read them. is she distressed? is she happy?

something's coming and it's eerie to see how many other witches feel it too.

☽.Stay wild moon child.☾

Shiratorizawa x lunar witch reader

You always have been a lunar witch, you always felt connected to the moon, every night you moon graze or star graze in your room or outside on a hill or in a field. You always felt like you needed to find a club in the school but you always felt like that if you got into a club and people found out your a witch you might be kicked out, until you’re friend told you that the shiratorizawa volleyball team needed a new manager after the old manager left to move with their family so you decided to sign up to become a manager. A few weeks passed of you talking to the coach and learning a few things and now you’re time has come to step inside the gym to introduce yourself to the team, slowly walking inside the gym to see the coach not trying to make your appearance weird, 𝐀𝐥𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐲 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐢 𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐭𝐨 𝐦𝐞𝐞𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐧𝐞𝐰 𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐫 (𝐲/𝐧) (𝐥/𝐧) 𝐬𝐚𝐢𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐚𝐜𝐡 𝐢𝐧 𝐚 𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐬𝐡 𝐯𝐨𝐢𝐜𝐞 looking down at your feet not wanting to be weird to the team you felt a presence near by you, 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐦𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐛𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐧𝐞𝐰 𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐫 𝐢𝐦 𝐮𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐣𝐢𝐦𝐚 𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐚𝐢𝐝 I’m (y/n) (l/n) you say. A few weeks of tendou singing and chaos you got used to it tendou would ask weird questions about you witch life and goshiki was amazed by you because you’re a witch and he believes that you fly a broom, you teach and tell the team about your witch life and moon spells and star gazing. You absolutely loved to teach the team about herbs and crystals for healing and rituals and protect and teaching them about the moon phases they always liked to call you moon child or moon goddess since you loved watching the moon, one you noticed that today was your birthday so you decided to stay back home since half of the was off for you but knew tonight you have to be at the gym for the boys practice since that’s what ushijima said, soon after you we’re walking to the gym but you soon realize that it was dark in the gym were going to turn around until you heard Happy birthday!!! as you looked in shock your team set up a birthday party for you you smile, as tears filled your eyes you were so happy. After a few minutes of talking and eating the boys brought you outside to show and blanket on the ground and a few lights and a basket of snacks set up for moon gazing, all of y’all sat down as you chat with them you were so happy that tonight was the best birthday for you. {.You were happy that you were the moon child of the shiratorizawa volleyball team.} 🌙✨🍯💜

☽.Little witch manager .☾

✧.Inarizaki x witch reader.✧

You (y/n) (l/n) were a witch no not the one’s you see in movies or hear in fairytales you were more like a modern witch, you lived in japan for two years with your mother who also was a witch too she taught you how to do spells, make moon water, do tarot cards and more. You were in Inarizaki high school you always wanted to be in a school club but you always thought the club class mates think you were weird, until you heard that the Inarizaki volleyball team needed a new manager so you decided to talk to the coach about and he agreed to make you their manager. So after you were walking to the gym to speak to the coach, 𝐀𝐥𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐲 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐢 𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐭𝐨 𝐦𝐞𝐞𝐭 (𝐲/𝐧) (𝐥/𝐧) 𝐜𝐨𝐚𝐜𝐡 𝐬𝐚𝐲𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐞𝐚𝐦 the team looked at you as you looked down slowly thinking that the team thinks your weird. A few weeks pass and the whole team loves you not because you were their manager but because they thought you were cool because you were a witch, Atsumu always begged you to do a tarot card reading on him and Osuma always asked you to make him some food because he thinks that the herbs that you put in there for flavor are going to give him powers or something. Akagi thought you were awesome because he thought you ride on a broom to school but you told him that you walk to school or ride the train to there, Ōmimi through you were cool because of all the types of tea you drink so you let him have some of your tea and since then he has been drinking it. Aran thought you were that you were cute and wonderful! You always gave him crystals and herbs to protect him from the twins and sometimes when ever he feels a bad vibe in the gym he asks you to cleanse the gym, ginijma also thought you were wonderful but couldn’t ever say it to you probably because he was shy of you but you always gave him a good hug. Suna thought you were odd at first but he realized he was so wrong he thought you were awesome one time he was walking home from the gym at night on a full moon and he saw you sitting on a hill watching the moon and once you saw him watching you moon gazing you decided to let him join you as you teach him how to make moon water, Kita absolutely loved you because you help him clean and you always knew how to control the twins when they fight. When ever y’all go to another school for a game you always do a good luck spell on them and sometimes you invite them to your house to study and sometimes you let them help you in your rituals, sometimes when ever another volleyball team flirts with you you’re team gets really protective. You absolutely loved your team. {.You were their little witch manager.} ✨🍂☕️🥧

I ABSOLUTELY LOOOVVEEEE GRAVEYARD AESTHETIC AAAAHHHHHHH

THE SABBATS

Sometimes, girls just wanna have fun…

Picking at the flowers in her backyard, she softly hums with herself. Behind her there’s him, hiding in her shadow. This has been going on for years. And she refuses to acknowledge him.

Does she even know that he is there?

I can’t tell you, not now at least.

She plucks as many petals off her roses as possible. Her intention was to use them for an important spell: a love spell.

She had freed her long brownish wavy hair off the braid she had done the prior night, on the full moon. In fact, this morning, she woke up determined; she stretched her body as usual, ate her breakfast, read her grimoire while petting her sweet cat’s head and searching for the right spell of the day. Putting on a soft pinkish dress might I say: in a very mischievous way, she got out on her garden. And began plotting her plan.

He was intently watching her every move. He was waiting for her to finally notice him, not knowing that she was very much aware of his presence and his intentions towards her and for that, she was precisely doing a spell to make him vulnerable to her. He was entirely oblivious to what was going to happen. Poor Ares… he was going to fall right in her trap…

Getting all the ingredients, she stays in front of the mirror and starts enchanting…

She turns her head to the side and stares at a corner of the room. “Ares.” she lightly whispers.

He hears his name coming out of her mouth and unknowingly comes out of his hiding spot. “Angel…” he mutters in response.

She sweetly smiles at him and softly says “I missed you, Ares.”

His eyes widened and he sighs “I missed you, my Queen.”

She slowly gets up from her chair and goes near to his chest. She wraps her arms around his neck and sweetly looks at him directly in his eyes.

He looks down at her and hesitantly raises his hands to her hips. And softly sighs.

He was as enchanted as she was with him.

Fairly enough, this is what happens between a sweet witch and a God when they’re in love.

Ko-Fi Herb’s Properties Part1 Herb’s Properties Part2

Is this the final boss?

I’ve felt crappy all day and ended up skipping class and laying in bed. I got up and finally did a protection candle I’ve been wanting to do and it made me excited to do more.

I’m really tired of feeling like garbage.

A fresh banner with a new look!

I love my sona, and a lot of time I use my sona to reflect my personal journey. It's original was very different but it had a lot of problem and it was during a chapter of my life where things weren't great. So my idea of moving on from it is by changing my sona, like I'm starting a new chapter. Some of you probably remembered I had a poll asking what color scheme you like on my sona which was a huge mistake for me.

The issue was that I was trying to force some stuff to work together and as any experienced artist know is that you can't FORCE things to work! I was trying to keep the original dark pink hair and force some colors to work with it. When the pinky color scheme had the most votes I put them on my second draft for my sona and I wasn't happy at all.

The dark pink and lighter pink just makes my sona look like Pinkie Pie! I have nothing against her but I just know people will just be thinking "It looks like Pinkie Pie as a unicorn" and that's not what I want! So I took out the pink and tried different color pallets to see what I like and works well together. The indigo/violet colors works so well with the gold accents and made them pop.

Another issue I was struggling, which I had struggled with for years, was my art style. I love zoophobia and the potential it has, so much that I tried to work with the style. But it made me struggle with how my sona is structured in the face! It didn't look right or just looks scrunched up. I took a break from drawing for that Fandom and moved on to others like Welcome Home and Smiling Critters.

NOTE: The smiling critters a separate from the horror elements as it canonically has it's own show before the plushies in Playtime Co.

When I was drawing the characters that are more like plushies, dolls, or puppets I felt a lot better. When I gave up on making my style like zoophobia it just feels like it came more natural, like I'm not forcing it to work. Drawing like this felt more freeing for me and it made me happy. It left me feeling happier with the result, especially with the face!

So if you're struggling with your style or designing something don't try to force it. Just have fun with whatever style you want and you'll feel happier.
