i'm only human

Though Maia had always daydreamed about being a witch, realizing she was one was a different animal. Though she hated to admit it, she was much better at being human than being a witch. After many years of the former, she had plenty of practice. Being a witch involved frequently learning her own limits.
Maybe that was why most people assumed she was a charlatan. She didn't necessarily look like a witch. She did wear a decent amount of black, but it seemed like a costume on her. She sighed.
Libraries didn't often carry materials on the occult, but due to the amount of supernaturals in the neighborhood, this one was used to odd requests from the people here. However, their eyes still widened slightly as Maia carried a stack of books that slightly blocked her view. It was a combination of gothic fiction and occult history books (also thought to be fiction).
Of course, she slammed into someone. Maia apologized profusely before starting to pick up the books. "Sorry. I didn't see you there," she babbled. "I haven't been into the library in a while so I got excited." She wasn't sure why she felt the need to explain her stack. Still, the redness continued to spread. "Hi, I'm Maia by the way."
