“Oh, now don’t be ridiculous… you & I ought to both know that that is completely & entirely impossible, let alone unimportant.”
“Unimportant to you maybe. But not impossible. Not in the slightest.”
@aether-witch liKED MY THING:
The witch looks up from his paperwork, surprised that she’s even standing in front of him. She had seemed so freaked out when he had previously seen her. He writes on a paper, and it floats toward her. His look of shock turning into one more of curiosity.
’Hello again. What are you doing here?’
“Practicing.” Killian said breathlessly, the last time she was here she had been putting it lightly in full panic mode. Upon her return to her home Petyr, it seemed, had been even more so. He hadn't been particularly keen on the idea of using such unknown magic but there was no doubt about it being able to escape in case of emergency was a good idea.
“I didn’t expect to be back here specifically, to be honest.” To be clear she didn’t even expect it to work period.
“Most pets we keep only become a fraction of our age. Do you think that if they’d know this, they’d call us gods?”

“locked in a room” starters
The “locked in a room” trope forces characters to spend time together, often characters who normally wouldn’t. It can help them learn about each other and develop their relationship in a positive way, or it can be disastrous. Feel free to add more! Send one for our muses:
♬ : stuck in an elevator together ✎ : trapped in a room together during a quarantine ✘ : in a waiting room while they have loved ones in surgery ♢ : alone in a train car when the train gets delayed ♕ : adrift in a life raft ☾ : sitting next to each other on an international flight ✂ : stranded by a roadside together ☀ : sharing a jail cell ☂ : stuck in a basement after an earthquake ☮ : sharing a run away hot air balloon ❤ : locked in a closet by a friend who just wants them to get along (or possibly hook up) ₪ : touring an historical (possibly haunted) building, and they get locked in overnight ☹ : on a bridge; traffic has stopped completely due to an accident, and nobody’s going anywhere for a few hours. Δ : stuck on a roof together ♒ : trapped by a spell or supernatural object (bonus points if you specify what the spell/curse is) ஐ : pretending to be married because this quaint old couple’s bed and breakfast is the only shelter for miles, they only have one room, and they’re a bit old fashioned. ♘ : sharing a hospital room ✿ : stuck in a spaceship escape pod together ☢ : on a deserted island ❂ : in a bunker after the apocalypse

When faced with difficult situations Killian is fairly level headed. However, taking her out of familiar territory or challenging what she knows to be indisputable fact without any sort of life line (e.g. her brother or a close friend) Killian is prone to panic attacks.
Except for her empathic abilities Killian's magic is weaker than it would be otherwise. Her empathic abilities seem to increase and the feelings that another person’s emotions usually evoke are multiplied ten fold. While weaker during panic attacks Killian’s grasp on telekinesis is more unpredictable.
I miss the winter. Just so quiet and still… you can hear your own heart beat.
For every ∯ I get I will say/confess something without specifying for whom it is meant
eg:
∯ || You told me once that I was the only person on that team you might consider a friend… I can say now that I should have taken you at your word long ago.
∯ || I wish we had more occasion to speak. I can’t say I’ve ever disliked your company.
∯ || Leave the van Gogh works be; you’re going to give him an ulcer.

Calling on the 90s
Something feels off about her, even more so than we she had first entered Limbo. He tilts his head, taking note that she probably didn’t finish reading. He did know where everything on the paper was located, so noticing her eyes going back and forth in one particular spot on the paper. He kneeled down, keeping his distance as not to startle her. He often forgets that perhaps going the long way around with information ca be too much for people. Though, he sort of feels that his information giving isn’t what has caused this strange feeling from her.
Skippy crosses his legs as if to sit on the ground. Except instead of actually sitting on the ground, he was floating up. Legs comfortably crossed, hands resting in his lap, as he hovered just barely above the foggy mist that was the ground. He’s watching her, keeping his energy calm in hopes that the calm surroundings will help her. As he just has the slightest feeling, that perhaps she needs to be calmed down.
As he watches her, he’s thinking on what else exactly that he could do to help her. Sure, he does not know her and has no reason to help her. Yet, in his eyes he liked to help everyone. Anyone that entered Limbo was welcomed, and treated with the respect they deserved. Since he saw no harm was to come from this girl, a small idea popped into his head.
Calmly he moved himself upward, so that it seems as if he were standing on the ground like he had been previous. Yet, he is still floating just a few inches above the fog. He walks toward her, not a sound made from it all. He can not speak, so no sound from his mouth. He is not on the ground, so no sound from his walking. Quietly he sits next to her, setting his hands on each side of his body. He looks at her a moment, before looking up at the sunset like sky and closing his eyes slowly.
’Inhale. 1.2.3.4.5.6.7.8.9.10.11. Now Exhale. 1.2.3.4.5.6.7. Repeat.’ He thinks to himself over and over again, breathing in through his nose, and out through his mouth. He’s focusing as hard as he can, he’s going to change the way Limbo looks. Just for a bit, to see if it will help the stranger calm down. As he does this, there is a faint noise similar to that of a sparkler. It isn’t loud, only really heard if there wasn’t anything else going on, and if someone was paying a large amount of focus to their surroundings. Slowly, the colors of the Sky begin to change. The purple and orange disappearing, becoming more of a black that is the night sky.
Sometimes staring at the night would calm him, so perhaps changing his land to nighttime would calm her? He never changed the sky, as he loved the different colors that one would see in a sunset. Once the sky had been turned dark, one by one the stars appeared. Bringing to the nothingness a beauty that would please the man and hopefully calm her down. In a similar way to how he closed his eyes, he opened them. A small smile on his face as he stared upward.
Turning toward her, he tapped her shoulder. Hoping to get her attention. He wasn’t exactly looking at her, he was focused on upward. So after the tap, he just pointed up toward the sky that made Limbo look so dark. The notepad gently floated out of her hand, flipping a page as the quill and ink container floated over and began to write. However, it wasn’t something too long this time. Just something simple.
When it was done, like it had done several times already. The quill lay in the ink, while the notepad floats toward the girl with the simplest of words on it:
’The night sky calms me at times, and you looked like you needed some calming. So why not see if the stars can help calm you too?’
Most empaths when they describe sensing calm from others they compare it to the feel of cool crisp water. This was of course when they themselves were calm and purposely trying to read the emotions of others.
For Killian, who was far beyond calm and her emotions almost supercharging her empathetic abilities, the second Skippy tapped her shoulder to get her attention, that briefest of contact, it was as if the witch had just been submerged in icy water. The contrast between her emotional state and that of the other witch’s was so great it caused Killian to almost physically recoil from the sensation jarring her from the panic she was working herself into.
Gasping for breath Killian stood up and wrapped her arms around herself, it was easier standing, oh why had she sat down in the first place? The entire scene around them had changed, Killian liked the night but this only served to confuse her even more.
On the page that Skippy once more wrote down what he wanted to comunicate Killian only the words ‘stars’ and ‘calm’ truly registered in her brain.
It was beautiful, no doubt about it but the change in the ‘sky’ did little to calm her. The witch was certain calm wouldn’t be an emotion she felt until everything started to make sense.
“This is impossible.” she muttered shaking her head, the panic was mostly gone at least. “The astral plane is not to be physically entered. It is a singular impossibility.”

@aether-witch
“Hi, hate to barge in on you like this, but my partner and I have been getting some serious readings from inside this apartment, so I’m just gonna-” Abby moved to push past the older girl, carrying her armfuls of equipment into the hall, “-y’know. Take a look around. You’re welcome, by the way. You may not know it, but this building is totally haunted. I’m Abigail Yates. You can call me Abby. My partner Erin is home sick, so I’m gonna have to ask you to be patient with me. Paranormal sweeps can take a long while, ‘specially when you’re doing them single handed. Oh, and you’re not gonna be able to use your tv or radio… Interference, y’know. But you look like a reader anyway! Have you… seen the ghost by the way?”
“Wait what?” Killian’s mind was racing was the teen pushed her way into the apartment. Ghosts? Paranormal sweeps? It was quite clear that the young lady was not supernatural in anyway, not that it mattered but still. “You- you can’t just waltz into someone's home like that, mainly for your own safety.”
Processing what the girl, Abby, said Killian shook her head, the girl wasn’t wrong about the building being haunted but the apartment the witch shared with her brother was not. “And I can say with the utmost confidence that there are no ghosts here.”
