This is an original story I wrote! The first volume is done, and the 35th chapter is online!
Synopsis: Hollyhock, a deadly assassin, has her life saved by a powerful witch by the name of Hazel. Now Hollyhock wants revenge, while Hazel is looking for new experiences and a good time. But it seems destiny has much more in store for both of them. Theyโll delve deep into the world of crime and magic and find out more about themselves than they imagined. Can they survive their journey to the truth together; or are bullets and spells too different to coexist?
Content warning: this series as of the first volume contains scenes of graphic violence, bodily harm, drug abuse, and mentions of sexual violence (itโs never directly depicted).
The link at the top comment leads to the first chapter on Webnovel.com but I also post on the following sites:

ScribbleHub

If you give it a read, Iโd appreciate it if youโd liked the story, commented, and Iโd super appreciate it if you shared it as well!
im sitting on a patio at my favorite cafe rn and im hand stitching them hem of a dress im working on. and i can see why someone would say im being performative by working on something like this in a public space. but frankly theres no element of that. i just want to work somewhere that isnt my apartment. i want to be in public, i wanna chat with strangers, i wanna see the world. itโs nice to hang out somewhere that isnt my home!
what i mean is when you say people are being performative you discourage them from doing shit they love in public. and thats no way to foster the world we want to see.
Yoooo, you gotta meet my friend! Heโs an insufferable prick thatโs so mired in his misery that just the thought of others being happy for any reason makes him lash out with vitriolic comments for no other reason than to upset you! And, heโs racist too ๐
Ahh, I canโt wait for you to meet my other friend! Sheโs developed an extraordinarily myopic mindset that anything she comes across, that doesnโt mesh with her pointedly narrow filter of experiences, will be treated as a violent attack on her way of life and she will not hesitate to act in inordinate retaliation to it. Sheโs racist as well ๐
No waaayyyy! Here comes my other friend! Oh, you should def meet them! Theyโve never once challenged, questioned, or analyzed any school of thought theyโve been taught or presented with, taking everything at face value and unequivocally believe that life is an even playing ground. They genuinely think that there are no oppressive factors in our society that affect pplโs lives save their own bad decisions. They are also racist ๐

๐ด Between Hospitals and Fear... A Mother Fighting to Survive ๐
We write these words not knowing whether we will still be alive tomorrow. My name is Najah, I am a mother of six children, and I am living through days beyond what I can endure. I try to stay strong for my children, but I suffer from a severe deficiency in vitamins, iron, and calcium, which leaves my body exhausted all the time, yet I continue moving between home and the hospital without rest.
โ ๏ธ My husband urgently needs surgery.
My husband is suffering from a severe health condition that began before the war due to digestive problems, but it has significantly worsened since then. He now urgently needs a surgical operation and continuous medical care that we cannot afford. His condition became even worse after he was injured during the bombardment while we were inside our home, increasing the danger to his life
โ ๏ธ My child has had increased electrical activity in the brain since early childhood.
As for my son Ahmed, he is a young child not yet six years old who has suffered from recurrent epileptic seizures since birth. He needs continuous treatment, but the essential medications are almost unavailable in Gaza and, when they do arrive through the crossings, they come in extremely limited quantities, making his treatment unstable and full of risk
๐ There is no safe place left for us.
We live under constant bombardment, displacement, and repeated evacuation orders, with no safety or stability. My children live in constant fear, and we have no money to escape or even protect them, and there is no safe place for us to go. Every moment, we feel danger getting closer.
๐ด Repeated displacement and losing everything with every evacuation ๐
With every evacuation, we are forced to leave our tent, our clothes, and everything we own, fleeing in panic, losing again even the most basic necessities of life with no ability to replace them.
๐ด Childrenโs suffering inside tents due to harsh conditions and illness ๐
My children also suffer from recurring health problems due to harsh conditions inside the tent, where rodents and insects are widespread because of poor hygiene and lack of a safe environment, leading to painful skin infections and other health issues
๐ด Children are deprived of education due to familiesโ inability to provide basic school supplies ๐
They also struggle to continue their education due to the inability to afford books, notebooks, and school supplies. The cost is around $200 per child, which is completely beyond our means.
๐จ We urgently need treatment, food, and safe shelter to save my childrenโs lives. ๐๐ฅ๐๐๏ธ
๐ Any contribution starting from $25, $50, $100, or even $200 can make a real difference in easing suffering and giving this family a chance at life.
