Rockstar Loki!!!!

Omg this was so fun to draw!

Mobius: *anime nosebleeds*

Another poll because it was really fun to see which options people liked the most✨

Which scenario do you think is happening in this drawing?

Loki is trying to get Mobius’s attention because he has a crush on him

Loki is trying to get Mobius’s attention to make him flustered (they’re married)

Loki doesn’t even realize how he looks at that moment (tired from the concert)

Other (if you have any other ideas let me know in the comments!!)

I drew Merman Loki

The scenario I had in my head while I was drawing this was him being able to escape from the fishermen that captured him. He’s unconscious because he hit his head.

Don’t worry Mobius will save him I just don’t know how 😭

Maybe Loki reaches the shore and Mobius sees him

Witchcraft 101:

Cleansing vs Uncrossing vs Banishing

Alright witches. Lets dive into some witchy basics and discuss the differences between cleansing, uncrossing and banishing. This will hopefully help you differentiate between them. But.. lets be honestly if you do something like call a spell an uncrossing when "technically" doing a banishing, who cares its all in good spirit. The reason i think its good to have a difference in mind between these falls into how you handle a spell. If I'm doing an uncrossing vs a banishing i would choose different spell ingredients, maybe work with different gods, or choose a different element to work with.

Cleansing: I consider cleansings as the foundation and most basic of these. Its almost an umbrella term the other two fall under. All banishings are cleansings, but not all cleansings are a banishing. Cleansings are when you're trying clear something away. Most often people will use this term in day to day workings and general upkeep to make sure nothing has stuck to them. This would include more casual things like smoke cleansing, showering and asking the water to cleanse you, sound cleansing, etc. Its not a full spellworking or ritual, but still done with energy and intention. Sometimes you may do a cleansing and realize whatever is there, is stuck deeper then you expected. So you take the next steps and do a more "intense" cleansing like an uncrossing or banishing.

Uncrossing Spells: Uncrossing specifically refers to removing unwanted energy. Usually when discussing what is an uncrossing, I sperate it from just a cleansing by describing it as a very intense cleansing where you're trying to strip away intense and specific energy. These are more work and a step up from an everyday cleansing for more intense scenarios. This is very spirit focused; think of it as taking out the bad and putting in the good. Some types of spells I would consider an uncrossing are: removing hexes/jinx/curses, removing the evil eye, spiritual detoxes, road openers, removing any stubborn energy, removing feelings, etc. I associate uncrossings with water: it's soaking in and getting that energy out. I would choose herbs/spell ingredients that are uplifting and purifying. Think salt, rosemary, rue, and lemons.

Banishing Spells: Banishing spells remove unwanted entities, spirits or people. You can use it to get rid of very deep rooted things like habits or insecurities. Banishings are quite a strong forms of spellwork. You're really kicking something out and away from you when you do a banishing. Its connected to more deep rooted things that you're trying to remove from your life. Some types of spells I could consider a banishing: cord cutting, exorcisms, banishing a spirit attached to you, getting rid of insecurities, freezers, etc. I associate banishings with fire. Burn and gtfo. I would choose herbs that have more of a kick to them and are defensive. Think nettle, blackberry leaves, cloves, even pepper in some cases.

Please note this doesn't have to be something strict. Like i said at the beginning this is just a guide that will help you differentiate so you can tackle the spellwork as effectively as possible.

🔮BANISHING VS WARDING🔮

(what really is the difference?)

✨🧿✨🧿✨🧿✨🧿✨🧿✨🧿✨🧿✨🧿

✨🧿✨🧿✨🧿✨🧿✨🧿✨🧿✨🧿✨🧿 ✨🧿✨🧿

BANISHING

Banishing is far more specific and direct than warding.

✨🧿✨🧿✨🧿✨🧿✨🧿✨🧿✨🧿✨🧿 ✨🧿✨🧿

WHY IS IT USED?

Banishing is used to get rid of a particulur energy, spirit, or person. Think carefully before banishing, as it's a strong form of defensive magic.

✨🧿✨🧿✨🧿✨🧿✨🧿✨🧿✨🧿✨🧿 ✨🧿✨🧿

BANISHING METHODS

USE THE ELEMENTS

burn a slip of paper with your target's name on it

throw a leaf with your target's name on it into a running river/stream

burn corresponding herbs and pass the smoke through your space

CANDLES

anoint your candle with corresponding herbs and oils, then burn it

when the candle has burnt out. the banishing is complete

SIGILS

make your own banishing sigil find one that resonates with you

place it in the space or on the item you are banishing energy from

HERBS + TINCTURES

use herbal smoke to force energy out of a space or object

make a spray or herbal tineture to sprinkle around your home

FOLLOW YOUR INTUITION

WARDING

Warding is a gentler form of defensive magic that is used in a more general sense.

🔮✨🔮✨🔮✨🔮✨🔮✨🔮✨🔮✨🔮✨🔮

Warding is used to protect and guard from negative energies of any kind - it redirects energy away from you or your space.

One of the reasons I think Loki was a perfect antagonist for the first Avengers movie is that he is them. And he knows it too damn well, while they are completely unaware.

He is Steve Rogers who never achieved social acceptance, who never had a Bucky Barnes in his life, who never stopped being bullied.

He is Tony Stark who never left that cave.

He is Natasha Romanoff who was forced to call his Dreykov "father", who never had an archer's hand promising the second chance to normal life.

He is Bruce Banner who cannot, even mentally, separate himself from his "monster".

He is Clint Barton, stuck in his mind, unable to truly do anything to stop what was going on.

He knows how to hurt them, even Natasha pointed that out. Because he knows them. He is them.

They hate him, he is them, but forever trapped in their nightmare that they would rather forget.

He hates them, because he is them, yet they are free.

They could've been where he is. He could've been where they are.

Some questions I’ve found to help when choosing a therapist:

Do you have your own therapist?

Why did you get into this job? (“I just like helping people” is not enough and also a bit of a yellow bordering on red flag for me)

How many people do you typically see at one time and how many are you seeing now?

When can and can’t you disclose our conversation with others (also who are these ‘others’)

Where do you stand politically? (Im kinda 50/50 on this question because for me it’s really important as both a trans girl and as someone who’s issues often stem from capitalism and if I have to explain that capitalism ≠ good then that’s not gonna fly with me)

For my fellow queers, I know it can be limiting but please please try and find a queer therapist. It helps soooo much. If you can’t, ask them about their sexuality/gender regardless. Asking straight/cis people to reflect on their identities is a great way to figure out what color those flags are.

Same goes for any racialized people! I’m white so I can’t speak to it with the experience but I would bet my left AND right hand that having someone of the same culture/lived experience is gonna be such a better environment to do therapy in.

Remember, you’re paying the therapist! I know there are some situations where people can be required to be in therapy but even then you aren’t stuck with any one of them.

Listen to your instincts, if things feel not 100% tell them that if you’re comfortable and otherwise finish the session and get outta there!

Therapy is a tool, you wouldn’t use a tool that hurt you so don’t think you have to keep seeing the same therapist just because you’ve been with them this far.

[what-even-is-thiss]

Any good therapist will understand when you tell them that you think you need to look for a different one. If you explain to them the sort of therapist you think you need they might even have some recommendations for you. In my experience at least most therapists and counselors I’ve been to understand that you need someone that you click with. Not everyone’s approach or focus will work for you.

[thepeacefulgarden]

Remember, they are someone you are hiring, so you can and should conduct a job interview. You definitely want to weed out people who aren’t going to be able to meet your needs, or who are dismissive of you, or are just…not good people.

daddy rio headcanons:

rio obviously had a little crown matching her own made for nicky

rio calls nicky "mijo", nicky calls rio "mami"

when rio is home, she and nicky spend all their time outside where rio teaches nicky all she knows about nature

when rio brings people to the afterlife, nicky will often excitedly meet her at the end of the bridge, telling her about his day

he's especially good at welcoming other children who are scared—he will take them by their hand and echo all the things rio has told him about life and death being a circle as he brings them to their destination with rio walking two steps behind them, beaming with pride but also ridden with unwarranted guilt that she gets to experience their son's beautiful personality every day and agatha doesn't

as rio brought alice to the afterlife, nicky jumped out at them, wearing a plague doctor mask, trying to scare them and rio said "excuse my son, as you can tell, he got all of my looks but all of agatha's personality"

actually scratch that, rio refuses to acknowledge that nicky is a carbon copy of her, completely blinded by all the parts of agatha she sees in him

rio has never badmouthed agatha to nicky—on the contrary, every time she comes home to nicky without agatha and sees the disappointment in his eyes, she makes sure to tell him that the only reason a witch as magnificent as agatha would even consider death an option is to be reunited with him and that she will try to do a better job bringing her back with her next time

but rios anger with agatha is also directly proportional to the amount of excuses she has made to nicky as to why agatha keeps avoiding death—and with that, nicky—so vehemently

rio sees nicky as the only good thing that has ever come of her. she's so used to people lamenting her existence—even agatha ended up getting hurt by the nature of her existence—so in rio's mind, nicky is the only thing of her making, her being, that has caused unbridled joy and love and happiness and she would put him before anyone else—EVEN agatha

which is why agatha "choosing" billy over nicky at the end of aaa has really good story arc potential for s2 because while rio will absolutely sit back and take everything agatha hurls at her, she would never forgive her son being betrayed (watch your back billy maximoff 🙃)
