[wicka]

U don't have to

They might know but I didn't remind them
My moms made a bigger deal than me and they aren't here so
It's fine

[ A beat later, ]

The other day I realized I should be in college by now

[chokedout]

i know i don't have to, i want to
i have something for you anyway

yeah? that's weird, isn't it
how time goes by in places like this
what would you be studying, do you think?

[wicka]

What is it?

My moms wanted me to go into languages or whatever
Because I speak two, sort of three
But I just wanted to keep dancing

Teddie was going into arts
He wanted to be in New York

[chokedout]

it's a gift, dom. i'm not spoiling the surprise

i say you should keep dancing
performance is a valid career

[wicka]

I don't know if they're going to let me
When I go back

[ Well. ]

If I go

Are u doing OK?

[chokedout]

do you need them to let you?

"if"? are you thinking of not going back if you had the chance?




i'm alright. i missed you at cellar's party
but I get it might not have been your vibe

[wicka]

Yea
They're the ones paying for it
I can't afford it on my own

I just don't know if I'm ever going to
Especially if people keep burning and destroying the house
But I'm
Sort of working on something
With my teacher

I thought she wouldn't want me there

[ So he can avoid saying 'you'. ]

[chokedout]

i see

[Is it selfish to want to know more? Yes. He's stuck on whether or not to ask.]

that's good, having a plan or
idea of what to do.
what's the idea?



she wouldn't have minded. you're always welcome, dom

[wicka]

Okay so...
People have gone home and then returned right?
They say that when they go home they forget everything, but when they come back they remember again
So that means the memories stay somewhere in their head
I think that's going to be the link between the worlds
And I think we can access that link through dreams
Especially because some people just go to sleep and wake up with more memories too

Gale is teaching me dream magic so I can try to reach Jules

[chokedout]

oh that sounds really cool
you could be on to something there

[theo wants to participate but won't ask to (at least not until something mysteriously puts them together this month)]

i mean it, that sounds really promising

[wicka]

[ His ego is feeling pretty good right now. Almost enough to forget he's supposed to be nervous and sad about Theo. ]

Thanks
It might work with Jules because we've still got his ring
The problem is that it's silver so I'm pretty limited with what I can do

[chokedout]

[don't don't don't don't don't don't]

can i help?

[fuck]

[wicka]

Ur not busy?

[chokedout]

not really
i'd love to help if i can, and if you ever need it

[wicka]

OK
If ur sure

[ ... ]

Were u ever
U know
Mad at me?

[chokedout]

for breaking up?

it hurt and i was a little bitchy about it but i wouldn't say mad
but i missed being around you. the full moon reminded me about that
and if there's a chance to still hang out as friends, i'd like that a lot



but i understand too if you still want or need space

[wicka]

No
I miss
Hanging out with you

I wanna be friends

[chokedout]

okay, cool
we can hang out some?

maybe take a walk in the woods or something?

[wicka]

Sounds good
Just gotta be careful so we don't end up in the wrong place

We can find a spot to set up wards?

[chokedout]

yeah, maybe we can find a good garden space

I was thinking of trying to make a set of wards that can be transported around?
like... packed up when not in use. unfolded or something
but something that's stable when put in place

it's a wip

[wicka]

Like a really big paper?

[chokedout]

sort of? maybe more durable
like... a leather ring of wards, something that can be cast out in an area but isn't too limiting

[wicka]

Yea
It can't be something that it can just rip too easily
It's a good idea

I've always been used to having just one place and we keep having to change it here...

[chokedout]

we can workshop it, i can get some advice from august (another witch, did you ever meet?) if you want too

hopefully the manor will be back up again and we can reset that room

[wicka]

Yea I know that guy

[ They didn't have the most pleasant encounter.., ]

Maybe don't mention my name
