Hi I posted some of these elsewhere but you guys get my 3DS photos AND my regular phone photos yayyyyyy. Straight from BLIB (6:30 o clock show):

Thinking about some of the material presented by my esteemed colleague @unsiredtribrid, Distinguished Professor of Gemini Coven Studies, in past lectures…

As things stand right now in canon, there’s technically only one living Gemini witch, Josie, and the Gemini Coven has been in this weird limbo state since its last leader died (as did all the living members) when Kai killed himself, before the twins were born.

(Leaving aside the question of what Kai’s final death by decapitation at the hands of Alaric in 2x13 might have meant…)

What does it mean for the Coven when there’s only one Gemini witch, and there isn’t a twin to merge with on her 22nd birthday? Does the Coven cease to exist? Does Josie then die because there’s not a new leader anointed via a Merge when she turns 22?

But there hasn’t been a leader of the Coven for the past 17+ (per canon timeline, such as it is already) years. Obviously, if Lizzie had lived, they would have performed The Merge and anointed the new person their merged consciousnesses had become as leader, and presumably begun repopulating the Coven by having children.

(That also looks past the idea that the Coven that was so desperate to continue its lineage that it had a womb transfer spell on hand to use to transfer the unborn Josie and Lizzie to Caroline—a vampire! So what if, despite its inculcated hatred of siphons, as a last resort, the Coven’s magic was prepared to consider a twin who still had magic although she was dead, still a valid candidate for the Merge? [Again, there’s the odd precedent of Kai—was he still a Gemini after killing himself? The whole point of his merging and then killing himself—well, one of the points, the other being to get rid of all the others—was to wield all of the Coven’s magic as a vampire-witch hybrid.])

All of this is fine and normal musings…

But then my brain got involved…and we all know what that means 😳

I ended up with an idea where the Gemini magic forcibly rips Josie apart, into her light and dark sides, and Josie and Dark Josie are then forced to Merge, to satisfy the requirement of performance of the ritual and anointing of a new Coven leader, and to keep the Coven alive.

[Never mind the fact there was only one twin and one set of magic to begin with in this scenario, and that the Merge would effectively only reunify the power it had previously ripped apart…and I guess create a “new” Josie who was a different blend of Josie and Dark Josie than Josie herself had created after S2…but who are we to let logic get in the way of interesting plot ideas?! 😂]

But if the Coven and its Magic were willing to go to such great ends before to ensure its survival, including the continued production of twins by Joshua and his wife to allow them to bypass Kai and Jo, what’s not to say something like this is possible? 😂

"If this tastes disgusting, I'm blaming you for the pressure," Benjamin called, stirring the sauce for his spaghetti. "Just because I lived alone doesn't mean I was ever any good at actual cooking."

asher chuckled, his hand lazily draping over the back of the couch, fingers just brushing josie’s shoulder. "oh, so now i'm just 'anyone' to you?" he teased, raising an eyebrow as his smirk deepened. "ten years, jo, and you still won't admit that maybe—just maybe—you pay a little extra attention to me." he tilted his head slightly, the faintest hint of challenge in his tone. "not that i'm complaining, of course."

"all i'm saying is that we have approximately..." she checked the time on her apple watch before sliding it off she set it on the nightstand beside the glaringly small only bed in their room. "six hours before we even need to consider our sleeping arrangements." with a small huff, josie stared at herself in the full length mirror one last time before resting her eyes on her ex. "until then, i'm going to go enjoy our vacation by the pool. are you coming?"

I think you should legally disclose if something is ai just like how you legally have to disclose if something is an ad

❛ JOSIE ACOSTA-SYMON ❜ — ela/dela, mulher cis — dezoito anos — mestiça, grifinória — nicole wallace .

josie é filha de alesia acosta & waudbert symon, aurores do ministério da magia, que se conheceram ainda em hogwarts. ambos grifinórios, waudbert tem sangue puríssimo, sendo de família tradicional bruxa do reino unido — diferente de alesia, uma nascida-trouxa, primeira bruxa de sua família. possui três irmãos mais novos, sendo james (de quinze anos, grifinória), jasper (de treze anos, grifinória) e jolene (de onze anos, grifinória).

assim como os pais, josie é extremamente protetora e empática. aprendera desde cedo que o respeito é primordial, principalmente no mundo bruxo, e principalmente em hogwarts. a mãe sofrera muita discriminação enquanto aluna, e ensinou os filhos que o sangue que corre nas veias de todos os bruxos é igual — vermelho e quente.

josie se sente responsável pelos irmãos em hogwarts. tenta ser o melhor exemplo de aluna, e mantém-se no topo da lista de melhores alunos que james entrou na escola.

é extremamente organizada, beirando o controle, com suas coisas, sua agenda e seus afazeres. não gosta de bagunça, e sofre com isso no dormitório. em casa, seu quarto é seu local imaculado. não permite a entrada de ninguém, para não correr o risco de ter seu espaço desarrumado. sua cama é milimemtricamente arrumada todas as manhãs, e sabe dizer com precisão se alguém se sentou ou esbarrou nela pelos amassados no lençol.

nunca se envolveu romaticamente com ninguém, e guarda seu primeiro beijo para o rapaz certo.

tem dificuldade em entender ironias, sarcamos e brincadeiras, sempre levando tudo ao pé da letra.

almeja a carreira dos pais, mas também é tentada a continuar na escola e tornar-se professora.

é artilheira do time de quadribol, e já quebrou basicamente todos os ossos possíveis atingida por balaços.

Any life would be better than the life she had with her father. She had been with Ellis for little over three weeks now, and things have been...strange, to say the least. He had been kind to her, kinder than she expected. The blonde was fed, allowed to do what she wanted, speak to whomever she wished. She was without a doubt not a prisoner of this bargain, despite being tied to the vampire by it.

A loud noise woke Josephine up from her sleep. Her heart leapt into her throat, fear settled into her stomach. She slowly got up from the bed, letting the blanket fall to the side. Ellis had been gone for a while, so perhaps he had returned? Josie made her way to the long hallway, eyes falling on the staircase. She cast her gaze down from the railing, catching a glimpse of a shadow in the living room. "Ellis?" Josie called out, but there was no answer.

The blonde was finally downstairs and upon making a turn, she was met with a rather gruesome sight. Her husband (which was so strange to say) was covered in blood. A gasp escaped her, hands came up to cover her mouth. There was a feeling around him, a dangerous one. He was like a predator just back from the hunt. Despite that, Josie slowly approached him. "Ellis..." As she got closer, she reached a hand out. "A-are you okay?" // @elpida

the star card // upright: hope, faith, rejuvenation // reversed: faithlessness, discouragement, insecurity

'cause i was never told that i wasn't gonna get, the things i want the most, but people always say, "if it hasn't happened yet then maybe you should go" -- chappell roan california

josie had lost a lot of her faith after the merge, but now that lizzie is back from the dead and hope is talking to her again, it appears there is a rejuvenation on the rise. the siphoner is filled with a type of hope that she thought was long lost. for the first time in a long time, it appears that she is putting her wants first, as she know begins the search for masked woman she met at the masquerade ball.

however, josie is filled with insecurity, something that she desperately is trying to work on, but it does get in the way. for three years, she was faithless, loosing all want to really be a person in the world. something that was met with discouragement after dabbling in black magic in europe.

can josie find herself again?

Very very gentle counterpoint in favor of people connecting this to funny cooked gen alpha: El Gato is chloe’s brother in the first place (valid, siblings mess with siblings), and chloe’s skepticism was not due to internet safety practices.

They didn’t trust WinRAR-701.exe specifically because of .exe creepypastas.

(End result of “being safe from a virus” is the same though, which is very entertaining and a good lesson! Also tbf I can’t tell how much of it is a joke so it might be a joke anyways.)

I'm sorry, but I adamantly disagree.

This is very good behavior.

They didn't recognize the file extension.

They didn't recognize the EXE program.

And so they refused to open them.

That is excellent internet security hygiene.

They went to a trusted person (their brother) and verified WinRAR was legit and then proceeded to unpack the files.

How is this not *encouraging* for gen alpha? Is it just because they didn't know what WinRAR was? Who cares? I'm just proud they were being careful.
