She understood why Lilia didn't have a lot of faith in their planned little experiment. After all she had been dealing with it for her entire life and had never managed to gain control over her visions; but Zelda wasn't about to let the woman's disbelief and cynicism get in the way of trying to help her, to help the entire coven as it very well could.
Zelda startled at the outburst. Let him in. The insistence in her tone took hold of her attention, the way her arms stretched and tensed before her, Zelda watched with rapt attention for as quickly as it lasted and waited.
Lilia's expression shifted, and Zelda kept still and waited for Lilia to speak again.
"I believe so," she replied. "You were shouting, demanding we let someone in, specifically a 'him'. You seemed quite adamant. Do you.. You don't remember it. But what do you remember? Are there ever images attached that you can recall, even a little bit?"
Before Lilia could answer, Zelda moved to grab a notebook and pen to document the event. Any flash of an image in her mind could go a long way in helping their cause but Zelda wasn't about to get her hopes up. Being a witness would likely have to be enough.
"Oh great," Lilia said sarcastically, "All the coven watching me for anything they think is odd." As if she hadn't felt stared at before, now it was going to be some collective group effort. Lilia had experienced being looked at strangely, dismissed and mocked for her 'spacey' behaviour, for centuries. The idea of it being consciously focused on didn't exactly sound appealing.
But with a lack of any better ideas, Lilia supposed it was the only way. It was certainly going to make teaching any classes more unsettling. Or maybe more of the students would actually be paying attention properly for once.
Lilia gave a breath of a laugh, suspecting Zelda's level of enthusiasm would match her own soon enough. And Sabrina wasn't so bad; she was just young. A witch who hadn't even reached twenty years old yet never mind her first century was bound to make a few mistakes; and considering her heritage, it was a small wonder she hadn't-
"No, no, no, let him in!" Lilia yelled, urgency in her voice.
Lilia realised her hands were outstretched, as if to stop someone. Letting them fall at her side, she cleared her throat.
"It just happened now, didn't it?"
#diviningtime#right before part 4 works#lilia is gonna be her favorite study.#also yes zelda already considers a friend at this point

"Your faith in Agatha is truly a credit to you. You're a good son, Nicholas." To Agatha and even to her, but she didn't dare express it so clearly. "You see the good in her when many don't, and I know she loves you deeply for it." She just wished Agatha would hurry up and return to them so she could say so for herself.
"Thank you, mom." The word slips from his lips, he's not sure if he can still call the High Priestess that any more, but he doe anyway. He considered Zelda more of a mother long before the two of them got together. "You're right she isn't, but I also don't think she'd let a child just surrender himself to death either." From what he remembered back in Salem, Agatha would never hurt children, just witches.

Zelda's heart melted at her niece's pleading. How could she say no to such a request? She simply couldn't if that was what would lift the girl's spirits or at the very least distract her for a small while. Her poor girl, she thought and reached out to gently stroke Sabrina's arm and gave her a softer smile. She could clear her schedule for the day.
"I suppose we could convince Hilda to do some baking between the two of us. But you'll have to get out of bed," she lightly teased.
Sabrina thought she might as well be ill with the way she was feeling. Why did things have to go wrong? Shouldn't intentions count for something? But then that was the saying, wasn't it? Good intentions paving a road to a place she was all too familiar with.
"Can we just eat Aunt Hilda's cookies and watching movies today, Aunt Zee?" she pleaded, slipping down to lie on her side. She managed to not return to the blanket fort.

&. 𝐡𝐢𝐭 ‘𝐞𝐦 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐭 𝐡𝐮𝐫𝐭𝐬 𝐬𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬.
@witchkillr asked: ❛ everyone i’ve cared about has either died or left me. except for you. ❜ (extremely rare agatha admitting to feeling things moment…)
Zelda stayed in silence for a few moments, stunned by the admission. Did Agatha even realize what she had let slip, she wondered. Or was this some little mind-game of hers, to get Zelda to lower her defenses before flipping the script on her? She couldn't be sure but couldn't help but think Agatha's eyes looked honest. She thought of teasing her, of trying to make light of it. But those eyes.. This was not the time for teasing but for simple honesty. And if it turned out to be the prelude to something ill-spirited then so be it.
"I don't plan on becoming either of those options," she replied, her tone firm but still soft enough so as not to alter the energy of the moment.

@unbeleveable asked: "let's not go back. not ever." (from rhaenys)
Laying with the other's arms around her, Zelda gazed up at the princess. She studied her face, her expression and came to the conclusion that Rhaenys was serious. The redhead didn't know why it surprised her yet it had. "Not ever? Are you just saying that because you think its what I want or do you mean it? What if something happens? What if one of the girls call for you?"

Zelda considered it for a moment before giving a small shake of her head. "They're going to be insufferable. My family at least that is." Part of her was tempted to keep things a secret for a little while before the entire community knew more of her personal business. And yet another part of her just wanted to live her life for a change without having to strategize how it would play out for everyone else. "Are you sure you want everyone to know you're sleeping with the High Priestess? Or is that a turn on for you," she smirked.
She kissed her back with just a much want and desire in her kiss. Zelda's wanton ways was another thing she was learning to love about the other woman, they quickly matched each other's stamina, something Agatha hadn't had in a very long time. The kiss ended all to soon for Agatha's liking, she the other witches lips almost instantly. "If you're ready to tell them we can." She nods, though she doesn't dare stray to far from the other, her forehead rests against hers. She already knows what Nicky will about it, so she's not to worried, but just as Zelda, it doesn't take much to imagen Sabrina's face, and she lets out a breathy laugh.

Zelda could always feel when Agatha's eyes were upon her. For as long as they had known each other it felt as if they were in tune with one another. It had startled Zelda to realize it at first, but eventually it became a thrill and a comfort. "I didn't trust Rio. I didn't trust her alone with you. Apparently I was right to feel that way. But.. I know what you mean. The moment was rather charged," Zelda replied, unconsciously licking her bottom lip. Agatha was temptation personified, especially for her heart. She wanted to believe Agatha was right, that they were going to be okay.
Agatha hates herself for making the other cry. She hated the road what they went through on it and it what's it's to them after. She wishes the other would throw herself at her, or she could do the same, but neither are daring to tread on those waters. That moment in the sound booth they had shared, they hadn't even been in the same room, and it was like they just knew the other was searching out the other. "I locked eyes on you from where you were, and it was like somehow you knew I was searching you out, and you looked right back at me, that moment right there, gave me some sort of hope that we where going to be okay."

Zelda would find her reaction to her little jab amusing if it wouldn't likely be immensely painful to laugh. She was having a hard enough time simply existing semi-upright; she couldn't afford to spend the rest of her energy poking fun at Lilia.
Damn her for being so perfectly healthy, she thought with a certain amount of bitterness. Really, under the fog of illness, she knew it wasn't Lilia's fault. If anyone was to blame it was Lucifer. And she knew Lilia was telling the truth. It wasn't in the other witch's nature to take glee from such a thing. Sure she could crack a joke or two at Zelda's expense, but Zelda knew she would never take true enjoyment out of the coven's collective suffering.
"Of course I don't think you're poisoning me," she replied with a huff and a roll of her eyes and reached out to take the glass. Her arm felt heavy and so did the glass yet she managed to bring it to her lips, and it tasted.. had she lost her sense of taste? Closing her eyes, she could have cried tears of relief to finally drink something that didn't make her want to die.
Lilia's mouth dropped open in a perfect 'O' of shock and offence. Grating?
"How dare you?" It was on the tip of her tongue to tell Zelda that she had been told by many people that her voice was very soothing, melodic even, but she didn't want to give the woman the satisfaction. Plus she was ill, which Lilia admitted gave her a little leeway.
And despite her smugness over former satanic witches being forced to accept the highs and lows of life that every other kind of witch had to, Lilia was feeling the very opposite of enjoyment at seeing them all ill, some of their fevers raging despite the amount of over-the-counter drugs in their system.
"Well, believe me I'm not," she told her simply, painful memories almost making her short. She didn't like fevers; they were cruelly unpredictable, turning worse, fatal, without notice. Lilia kept reminding herself that these days people didn't simply succumb to a virus, that high temperatures were easily dealt with. But the feeling wasn't as easy to shake as she wished it was.
"You can't honestly think I'm poisoning you?" she asked in indignant disbelief. "It looks like that because it's enchanted," she explained as if to a child. Sighing impatiently, she held out the glass again. "Drink it."
#diviningtime#went with its enchanted so it isnt awful haha#to be fair she might be okay with being poisoned at this point

Zelda smirked as she shifted ever closer. The woman was incorrigible, she thought with a small sigh and shook her head at the witch. "Stay in bed all day," Zelda asked with faux innocence undermined by her teasing tone. "What a scandalous suggestion. And here I was thinking I would get dressed and bury myself in paperwork. You truly are a terrible influence." The redhead was fully grinning by this point. She adored this side of her partner, so spontaneous and affectionate.
They both loved flustering her sister, Agatha maybe liked doing it to the kids a little more, but that maybe because Ambrose went a long with her antics, and she with his. She tugs Zelda closer as she listens to her, a grin forming on her lips. "You know I love those rolls." That kiss was all to quick for the witches liking and she give the red head one of her own. "We're both the lucky ones." She admits. More so Agatha, she's grateful for the second chance Zelda has given her, one she didn't deserve, but she some how has earned it. "Mmm, you might have, but I wouldn't mind you showing me again. Stay in bed with me today?"

She knew she should feel horrible for being relieved to learn that her parents had passed, but why lie? And apparently, if she never spoke of them, their relationship never gets any better if not worse. It was a shame, she thought, because she loved her family and wanted her daughter to feel the same if not more so; she wanted her to have grown with the knowledge that she was loved unconditionally. And it seemed that might just be the case.
The smile she wore abruptly dropped at the mention of the Cain Pit. It was Mother's most extreme final threat whenever she deemed Zelda was out of control, and Father never wasted time threatening, she thought to herself, unsure how much she should reveal to her daughter. "Have I.. Is that something I've ever threatened you with?"
"They have," Sabrina admitted, looking at her aunty sympathetically. It was true that it didn't seem that she had the perfect relationship with them, but they were her parents; it would be sad to know they weren't there for you in the future. "You've actually never really talked about them. No one has." She'd gotten snippets from Ambrose, the little he knew anyway, but that had been pretty much it.
"Oh yeah, we're super close," Sabrina assured her. "I actually live with you and Aunt Hilda. And my cousin. We're very tight. I mean, I'm not saying we don't have arguments from time to time, but that's part of the territory, right?" She added with a nervous laugh, suddenly realising how much she was sharing. "I'm thinking even with a memory spell I'm not supposed to be telling you this much. You, future you, would probably kill me. Not literally," she added hurriedly. "You've never put me the Cain Pit."

Zelda's eyes widened in surprise. "Fairies." She could honestly say she hadn't seen that one coming and yet.. "I knew there was magic there but I just couldn't place it. Fairies. I never would have guessed. How fascinating," she remarked with a hint of wonder in her voice, looking Farah over with eager eyes, not knowing what she was looking for except maybe signs she hadn't seen before. Realizing she was staring, Zelda cleared her throat lightly before schooling her features. Honestly she was acting like Hilda, she thought. "I might have something to confess myself."
That last comment made Farah and she faintly lifted a brow. She felt as if she was about to put it to the test in the most shocking way possible. She wrung her hands together a little unconsciously as she forced herself to utter the truth: "I'm not human and neither is Bloom. We're fairies."
#unbeleveable#I love that if it had been sabrina to tell her zelda wouldnt have believed her#but she believes whatever farah says apparently
