Verse: Witch AU (Modern) Characters: Witch!Connor x Actor!Markus Pairing: RK1000 (Markus x Connor)
Connor is a solitary practicing witch without a coven and lives a minimalist lifestyle in a small cabin in the forest. He is a skilled practitioner in the arts of natural healing, palmistry, tarot, and Wicca spell crafting. And he has clients who, on occasion, come to him to use his skills. That is how he makes a little bit of extra money, but he grows his own food, lives off the land, and lives simply.
But his quiet lifestyle and peace, however, are disturbed when a car crashes in the forests near him and he rescues a drunk, heavily injured, down-on-his-luck actor called Markus, and nurses him to health. Markus is naturally skeptical of everything Connor does and sees witchcraft and all that it entails as nothing more than mumbo-jumbo, and that his lifestyle and way of living are ridiculous. Needless to say, neither of them gets on with the other at first, and it is a rocky period for them both.
But as Markus slowly heals and recovers, the more time he gets to learn about and understand Connor and why he lives the way he does, and realizes that maybe this simple, live-from-what-nature-gives, minimal, stress-free lifestyle may just help him find his true self. Because being an actor was never his dream.
And so Markus finds himself becoming a better person during his time with Connor and eventually figures out where he wants his life to take him and whom he wants to share it with. He chooses to go down a more creative path and decides to become an artist, and eventually, Connor's cabin houses two people instead of one.
