It’s so interesting how Agatha Harkness loves being a witch, and everything about being a witch: Magick, the craft of Magick. The skill of figuring out how a spell works.

But not the other parts of it: Community.

And, Agatha’s definition what a Witch is, is so damned fascinating. As the hosts of Crazy Stupid Podcast mentioned, Agatha has a scarcity mindset.

For Agatha being a Witch meant being hardened, a survivor at any cost, because it was all Agatha knew of being a Witch. Witches are persecuted, so they do everything to survive.

(Meanwhile, Sorcerers are revered in the MCU.)

Agatha told Wanda there’s always men who want to tear down ladies like them… and it’s true but what she didn’t tell Wanda, is that Agatha would sell everyone else down the river to, to survive.

She’s the Apex predator of Witches.

(And 100% the reason why there’s not a lot of Witches around in both the United States and Europe since it’s apparent that she also went to Europe in her long life.)

And that makes Agatha so fascinating.

Agatha really is like my number one favorite girl, Katherine Pierce. (Who, I realize is older than Agatha too, since Agatha is only pushing 300, meanwhile, Katherine is 500 when we meet her in TVD.)

“Never trust a survivor,” my father used to warn me, with Vartan Mamigonian in mind, “until you find out what he did to stay alive.” - Kurt Vonnegut, Bluebeard

This is pretty much the SOP with both Agatha and Katherine.

Unlike Katherine Pierce, Agatha Harkness has a better chance of finding some kind of grace and peace because the writers actually think she’s interesting, complex and a character worth investing time in. Unlike the TVD writers who just used Katherine as a convenient chess piece to move around.

The thing about Agatha though, is apparently, if you managed to chain her to a group of witches and have her life tied to their wellbeing, Agatha does start to bond with a Coven.

Her paranoia and need to consume magick are the things that keep her from bonding with them. But she’s at her best when she’s guiding people and being a mentor, and a leader.

Unfortunately, Agatha also has a tendency to get people killed or harm them even though she doesn’t have any intention doing so.

‘Witch Killer’ is a nickname Agatha can’t escape from… because it’s true.

Chase Stokes and Katherine Langford

She lies on silver pillows: the sun leans over her. He warms and warms her, kisses and kisses her. There are sparks in her hair and she stirs in laughter.

Kat + River @ocean-eyeslnrp

Location: Lunch at the Beach, Shimmering Shore Beach, Day 3

-🏝️-

Much time had passed since River crossed paths with Kat. Hell, the most time the pair had spent together recently had been in forced joint captivity towards the end of Sebastian's coronation weekend celebration when they were kidnapped. And while during said hostage situation, the two spoke, River had not reconnected with Kat since then. Still, the stubborn vampire who'd been rescued by Olivier simultaneously while Jackson freed her, reoccurred in her mind. As if on a subconscious loop. And while River didn't know if Kat wanted to speak to her, for fear of remembering a time when she was unable to save herself - the Princess felt the urge to at least talk to her. Check in on the entrepreneur.

At the sight of Kat at the beach during lunch on the final day of the heir naming celebration in the Divine Forest, River felt as though it were a sign. She'd given her mate a brief goodbye kiss and after tapping into their telepathic portion of their bond to soothe Jackson's worries, she made her way to Kat. "Hey," She began, unsure of how to exactly start. River wasn't an expert on how to communicate on mutually experiences and traumas with others. "Are you free to talk? Privately." She glanced around. "We can step away to a secluded space." River paused, actually looking somewhat nervous. "I wanted to see how you are. Check in on you. Since the last time we spoke. Are you okay with that? If you don't want to talk about it, we don't have to. Just so we're clear."

an altar to those who have been dispossessed, those who are haunting, and anyone who has been affected by colonialism.

this project was deeply inspired by "Before Dispossession, or Surviving It" by Angie Morrill, Eve Tuck, and the Super Futures Haunt Qollective, "Unparalleled Catastrophe for Our Species?" by Sylvia Wynter and Katherine McKittrick, Octavia's Brood, an anthology dedicated to Octavia Butler, DUB: Finding Ceremony by Alexis Pauline Gumbs, and Parable of the Sower by Octavia Butler.

much gratitude for lexi, who helped me bring an idea into reality, and my critical race and ethnic studies professor micha cárdenas who challenged me greatly this quarter.

let us reimagine the future. a future with a free Palestine and an end to all colonial domination. a future where care and community is central to life.

i was kind of ok and then gasteyer had to go and say katherine hopes to see that kind of strength projected from sadie partially from a purely protective instinct. so now i need to lay down
