I would very much like to thank Amanda Holden for giving us visuals for Hecate Hardbroom’s and Pippa Pentangle’s respective beds.

Oh ho ho, if you’re not one of the favourites I’ve seen while lurking about! A true diamond in the rough there.  Welcome and welcome to you *witch salute* so pleased you’ve happened by.  Do feel free to stay awhile--I have another sweep of the Estate to do but shall be ready to change into something more comfortable following that. *lifts shoulder and ‘brow*  Should you be interested in the more informal Pentangle’s Experience.

All are welcome, of course--Pentangle’s hardly goes to sleep before the Witching Hour, would be too much a pity to miss, don’t you say?

maud: [mildred hubble] was down for pentangle's, but...

pentangle: oh maud, don't tease.

pentangle: I would gladly fight hardbroom for her

pentangle: tooth and nail

pentangle: viciously

pentangle: voraciously, even.

drill: I'll ref.

What a wonder--hello!  A joy to stop by your little bumblr there; that gif-set of alcohol being poured spoke to me on a spiritual level.  A great many of the things you’ve posted made me smile!  Thank you ever so much for the follow.  I hope perhaps you’re not of the endless-glass-of-liquor mood, or at least that you might not mind being joined? ;)

Why thank you, darling, so glad to have you hear!  I’m sure I’ve seen you flying around before; there aren’t many cake-eating winged cats, as I’m sure you know: you’re a real rarity.  A real gem indeed!  Thanks ever-so for joining us here at Pentangle’s for a spell. ♥  If you’re the least bit peckish, we’re always happy to welcome guests to our kitchens--and you know I’m sure to keep them stocked with cake! ;)

Hmmm what a delicacy is your tumblr.  The art alone!  Why, there’s even one of little old me!  That one will certainly get reposted.  Thank you, dear one, for the follow!  You, your art and your dedication to the Mistress (of course I know her; the universe is always smaller than expected) are all admirable and so very welcome here.

I thought the little guy was cute.  And with that, I am caught up!

Welcome Welcome Welcome

to your first day of classes, my lovely Pentangle Gems!

🌸 Everyone arrived on the first, as tradition dictates, and has been settling in with their belongings, sorting out their schedule and catching up with--or making new!--friends.

🎀 The first years' parents have flown off home and the upperclass students are showing our new witches the ropes.

💖 Can't wait to see you all in class, studying hard, participating in extra-curriculars, supporting one another, learning new things and--just as important--having fun!

💕 Welcome to Pentangle's Academy! 💕

Okay I’m probably thinking too much into this (as usual), but if wizards and witches have different means of using their magic how does a school like Pentangle’s function with co-ed pupils? Like do the girls and boys have to be separated for practical lessons? Do they have to have male and female teachers for these lessons? Do the girls go for chanting lessons, whilst the boys do something else? If so it seems a bit pointless to have a co-ed school in all honesty… 

Alternatively does Pippa just tell the Great Wizard to shut up and teach them exactly the same? 

I need answers! Why am I so invested in this children’s show?!
