In withc au, have you decided which other hermits are familiars? Do the familiars ever hangout with each other or do they stay close to their witch?

I don't know for sure yet! i only have a couple thoughts- like i want pearl to be a familiar, a dragon specifically but i dont know who she'd be partnered with? and just because i love fox etho i want him to be a familiar as well but i dont know if he really SHOULD be a familiar ^^ everyone else is up in the air atm!

there's no like, official meeting between familiars like there is between witches, but I can see familiars of witches who are friends would gossip a bunch!

Part of being a witch's familiar is that you feel a pull to your witch, gets stronger the farther you are from them and especially when they call out to you. The familiar adoption spell is a reaaaally old spell, and it was originally meant to make an animal serve its witch, so the spell is still commonly executed in the same way and prompts the animal to serve :P
