I’m overtired and I want a romance

I’m overtired and I want a romance
With kisses
I’m not going to remember posting this
kisses prompts to give the readers butterflies:
(feel free to use! yk what to do babies, tag me when u writee !! importantly the 2nd, 6th and 10th prompt >\\<)
hands around your waist as they pull you closer, goosebumps swarming every part of your body that they touch
kisses where they peck you a thousand times and you just sit there giggling with your face squished in their palms while they kiss
the kiss that breaks apart for a second, a smile stretching and they kiss you back again, fingers gently sliding down the side of your face to your neck
"i like the taste of your lips on mine"
kisses where they push you against the cold wall, their hands tracing your curves as they nibble on your lower lip, hands teasing every edge as you moan into the kiss
gently tugging at their collar, out of breath, they ask, "do you want me to stop?" you hurriedly say, "just the opposite, please"
kisses where they pin their hand on either side of your head, body pressing down on yours, places touching on where it shouldn't
neck grabbing during kisses >\\<
meeting each other after a long time and running into each other's arms, hugs tighter than ever as they place a kiss on your head, relieved that it finally feels like home
kisses that turns into love bites, and you slightly moan, "you like that, princess?"
intimate back hugs where they slowly trail kisses from your collarbone to your jaw, making you shiver, and they mumble, "god you smell fucking good."

Check out my ongoing comic Crow Time. It has crows, and also neat pantheons of epic beasties.
I almost went to sleep, but then Hermes said this:
"Avoiding your gods because you feel unworthy is the beginning of a downward spiral. We improve what we touch, and make worthy those whom we love."
So, if you got there in your head, too, just an FYI.
Btw, i drew Thoth if anyone's interested
I has ONE job with hieroglyphics, and even this went wrong, so ima go die now
Omg, this is BEAUTIFUL!
Wait so dieties don't reach out at all? Because I've been really pondering this lately while thinking of getting into diety work with a specific diety.. and I've been wondering about the whole signs thing..
I suspect that a vast majority of people who believe they have been "reached out to" by deities were not reached out to at all.
Confirmation bias is a hell of a drug.
I can't be that mad at people for propagating it. A lot of people get into this stuff because they want to feel special and powerful.
Nothing makes a person feel more special than being chosen by a god.
And if all your friends are doing it, and suddenly you realize you've seen a picture of a deer 3 times this year, boom - you're not a regular person who thinks Cernunnos is cool, you've been chosen by Cernunnos,
a god has chosen you,
and a need for specialness and personal care becomes validated.
And yeah I absolutely believe a lot of people who think they've been receiving messages or signs are just misinterpreting random stuff.
I mean, especially for witchcraft (because this is a witchcraft blog), how disempowering is it to think you're not allowed to talk to gods unless they piss on your leg and claim you first?
Witches and pagans aren't baby damsels locked up in ivory towers of mundanity waiting for a god-knight to rescue them and whisk them away to a special kingdom they were always meant for.
We're all literally just Dudes and its our own job to figure out who we want to be and what we want to do with ourselves.
And I think "chosen culture" has become a form of a cosmic facebook personality quiz that people rely on to learn more about themselves, because if a goddess of night and darkness chooses you then that must mean something about who you are.
When in reality, once again, you are just a Dude who romanticizes darkness and night and are for whatever reason unwilling to give yourself permission to contact an open deity unless you submit to these weird "looking for signs" mind games a lot of people decided are real and necessary, because if they are real and necessary,
that means some people get to be very special.

According to Irish folklore, It is said that the Morrígan can predict death and the fate of war. Her prophetic and all-knowing gifts made her exceptionally powerful and she would divulge what she knew to those who were willing to part with it for a price.
I'm going to put my witch of color hat on again, but when did this whole "deities reaching out" thing even start?
Having been born into a living tradition, it's just never been a thing for me. Before, it never even occurred to me that deities would reach out to humans and ask to be worshipped. Because why would they feel the need to? They would have no reason to recruit followers. They would never lack followers. They're divine. Humans have always worshipped them, and always will.
Like, we simply worship the gods that have always been worshipped, and honor the divine beings that have always been honored in our native religions. We pick our favorites and keep up with the traditions. We choose the divine to follow, the divine exist and get followed, like they always have been.
I chalk it up to "having Main Protagonist/Chosen One Syndrome" - people want to feel special so they do this whole "I was CHOSEN BY THESE GODS because I'm SUPER POWERFUL AND SPECIAL and I'm a PRIESTESS OF HEKATE AND ALL OF THE GODS THAT I DON'T KNOW ABOUT" song and dance. Even after blocking people and curating my online experiences, I still see a lot of it. For some reason it's always either "Priestess" or "High Priestess" so I suspect that there's some Wiccan influence in how people talk about it.
And, yes, most people who pull these cards are white cis women. Some of them aren't even adults, but most of them are.
I definitely agree with both of these points. Why do you have to be specifically hand picked and chosen by the deities to begin worshipping them? What is it with this idea that unless the gods are all “yes I want this person SPECIFICALLY”, you can’t worship them?
I’ve always felt a pull to Lady Wadjet and Lady Sekhmet. I might refer to that as them “calling” me, but they didn’t hand pick me. I just knew I should devote myself to them. Lady Sekhmet did NOT come down from the heavens telling me she wanted me to worship her.
If someone wants to worship a deity, there’s nothing wrong with just reaching out and worshipping. You don’t need a sign, you don’t need them to pick you. If you feel called to them, then you can worship them.
I like to compare it to making friends. If you want to be friends with someone, you make time and hang out together. If it doesn’t work out, then it doesn’t work out. But as you spend more time together, your bond deepens. Obviously it’s not a perfect analogy, but it’s the best one I have.
I definitely believe this whole “you need to be chosen no questions asked” shit stems from white witches wanting to be all important, all powerful priestesses. Like, I GET it. The idea of being chosen by a deity is so cool, but it doesn’t just happen!
It’s definitely main character syndrome.
