Some lil rant about myself (*￣◇)=3

Just because ♡

Also sorry for the wacky english i suck at grammar in generar lol

Love and relationships are so damn hard to navigate like, i feel so fucking lost and it takes so much energy from me that sometimes i get the fucking idea of just start ignoring everyone like other people don't exist. I would never do that tho, if i did people would get mad and im NOT one for confrontations.

I have never been in a "true" romantic relationship, last time i did was in highschool (im in college right now) and it only lasted three days. It was all rushed and weird especially because i didn't expect the boy to reciprocate this crush, i felt soooo damn uncomfortable i couldn't even hug him. Feeling like this about romance in general isn't new for me, as someone who is still trying to figure himself out i don't want to assume anything yet¿ if that's make sense lmao

I never had boys directly flirt with me but i had some of them declare their crushes and the feeling is so damn weird in a bad sense, i didn't like it at all and mostly i didn't like any of those boys so i always ended saying no in a very weird way or yes because of peer pressure.

As of today this weir bad feeling still doesn't go away, now i have only female friends and most of them know about my prefered pronouns. I always see girls calling themselves wifes and flirting in a joking manner but when it comes down to me and said friends i can't help but cringe so hard when it happeneds and my reactions are always like "haha stfu", i never say things with the intention to be mean or rude but it's if im locked up in that and don't know how else react. Luckily they understand this as a joke and not as some kind of defensive mechanism.

I don't enjoy when friends flirt with me and call me things like handsome, it's physicalli so fucking painful and i don't know how to put boundaries.

! In case anyone gets the wrong idea let's say that outside of words that made seem like a joke i don't get much of a reaction, this is not something they are doing on purpose it's just that I have a clear lack of boundaries ¡

Moving on, romance it's not something that makes me uncomfortable in the day to day it also makes me cringe soooo hard in any kind of media i consume. Im the type to watch series, videos or movies meanwhile doing something else so if a romantic scene comes in i will mostly try to look away.

It's kind of different when the scenes happened in books tho, like it just doesn't bother me as much but still sometimes i will totally skip it as i feel like it but sometimes i will feel guilty about it.

And to finish, i don't really care about sex like at all. It's just one of those things that is there and that's all. Not a priority and don't feel guilty when i skip it.

Mike's ridiculous airport outfit was him not being himself, in EL'S COLORS

I don't know if Bylers have caught this yet, but the Airport Scene clearly links yellow and purple to El. Mike gives her flowers and says they're in her two favorite colors, YELLOW and PURPLE:

Meanwhile, Mike's "clearly not being himself" outfit at the airport was a YELLOW shirt over a PURPLE undershirt. The colors exactly match those of the flowers, and are even in the same proportion of 70% yellow to 30% purple!

(EDIT: Also can I add that we hardly get any indication that these actually ARE El's favorite colors? She isn't wearing them here or anywhere this season. This also tells us there's something off in their relationship.)

Then we get Argyle's comment that Mike's shirt is a "shitty knockoff" which is pretty on the nose that Mike is not being himself. (Only seconds after not hugging Will!)

The symbolism couldn't be clearer: the COSTUME he's wearing is El herself. And part of this "not Mike" is for some reason NOT being able to hug Will. Hmm I wonder why...

He's hiding in the closet (using his closet!), and that closet is El. (EDIT: A false idea of El!)

I can't stop thinking about Blade saying gifts are unfamiliar.

And I can't stop thinking about Kafka and Silver Wolf, hearing that, and making it a mission to bring him gifts whenever they travel somewhere for their script - even if he's there with them. About the confusion in his eyes when they steal buy something and turn right around to hand it to him.

About his room starting out completely empty except for the bare minimum necessities, a few spare clothes and what he needs to take care his Shard Sword, but filling up with little trinkets and gifts over time. Clothes and jewelry and perfume from Kafka and posters, figures and plushies from Silver Wolf. About them also bringing food back, expensive specialties swiped from a restaurant and the weirdest option they could spot in a lone vending machine, a category of gifts that doesn't leave anything behind (except the photos they both take of the three of them eating together, or of the faces he makes when Silver Wolf manages to trick him into trying a suspicious snack while he's distracted with polishing his weapon).

About Kafka spending hours finding clothes and jewelry she thinks would suit him, because that's her love language. She gets him makeup too, refusing to let his good looks go to waste. She knows he can't put it on himself, they both do, and he doesn't care for his appearance enough otherwise - but he'll let her do his makeup for him anyway, because she enjoys it, and because he finds it soothing.

About Silver Wolf also buying him clothes, but the ones she gets aren't his style at all, and just barely his size. She gets them for him, but just so she can steal them right back - her love language is quality time, and she fills Blade's room with gifts she can borrow along with a moment of his day. It still counts as a gift, she insists, practically swimming in an oversized jacket she swiped from his closet.

About how in another life, Yingxing gave gifts to the people he loved and in this one, Blade receives them from those who love him.

Books of 2024: THE RAVEN TOWER by Ann Leckie.

I'm still in the Hamlet frame of mind after THE DEATH I GAVE HIM, so we're keeping that going! This one came highly recommended by a Trusted Friend (beloved). Apparently it does some Weird and Neat Shit with POV, which is also exactly up my alley.

Featuring my Pass the Honey cardigan moonlighting as a background!

Color Magic

What is color magic?

Color magic is utilizing the correspondences of a certain color in witchcraft/magic. It can help hone intentions in a spell, or establish the intent uniquely on its own. You can use it anywhere within a spell, especially to nudge it in the right direction.

What are ways I can use color magic in spells?

Commonly, you’ll see people use color magic in candle spells. People often recommend pink candles for beauty and love spells, because they associate pink with beauty and love, etc. What each color means, though, is up to the witch’s individual associations, alike every other correspondence. Since everything has a color, you can really use it anywhere. The color of the paper or ink of a petition, adding food coloring to a potion, using a colored rope for knot magic, literally anything. Even in the little things! The spoon you use to stir that potion, the body of the lighter you use to light the candle, the handles of the scissors you use to cut the rope, etc. Of course, as I’m about to say, you don’t NEED to pay attention to any of these things…

What if I have to use the “wrong color” in some part of a spell?

Say you’re doing a candle spell to attract new friends. You personally find a yellow candle ideal, because you associate yellow with happiness and friendship, but all you have is a green candle, which is a color you associate with money, and that’s not at all relevant to the spell. It’d also be best to probably ignore that correspondence with money, lest you attract friends who only care about spending your money or about the things you own, and not you personally. There are multiple solutions to this, some of them being:

1. You can ignore the color and focus on other aspects of the candle. You don’t need to account for every little thing in a spell, and if you don’t focus on the color of the candle and your correspondences regarding green, then it’ll have no effect.

2. You could overpower the color with other physical traits. Carving sigils and stuff into the wax might overpower the influence that the color has and give an alternative physical property of the candle to focus on that has a more relevant meaning.

3. You can consider other meanings of green and see how green COULD be relevant to your spell somehow. Green means go, right? You could say the green is allowing new friendships into your life that way. Nothing, imo, has a single use or correspondence.

4. But even so, if you only associate green with money, you could tie that in to your spell as well. You could attract friends who encourage you to have better spending habits, or have connections with people who could find you a better job.

5. You could look at the relationship that green has with other colors. Green, after all, is a mix of yellow and blue. You could therefore use it as a way to combine the correspondences of yellow and blue. If yellow means happiness, and blue means calmness, then green could bring you a friendship that’s both happy and calming. It’s also across from red on the color wheel. If red means angry, then being across from red could discourage fights in your friendship and make things easier.

These aren’t the only solutions, either. Witchcraft is largely about creativity. There’s an infinite amount of ways to approach spellcraft.

Subtle/easy ways to use color magic?

As a closeted and disabled witch, color magic is EXTREMELY helpful to me in my everyday life. I can start my day off with a little magic by deliberately choosing to wear a certain color in my outfit—even in places nobody else will see, like the color of my socks (which i like especially because I imagine them carrying me to that outcome that I want). If you paint your nails, put on makeup, or wear jewelry, that gives you many options for incorporating certain colors as well.

I buy things considering the color. I have a blue hairbrush because I want my hair to flow smoothly like water. I use a green mechanical pencil because I want to write down the correct answers.

If I can’t make an intricate potion, I can choose to drink coffee out of a yellow mug that morning to subtly enchant my drink to encourage a happy day.

Also, I have LED light strips in my room that I like to change to a specific color in order to paint my day and actions in my room with that magic as well. For example, when I’m studying, I like to turn my lights blue because I associate it with intelligence, memory, and calmness—and I don’t want to be any more stressed than I already am lol. I don’t do any chants or ritual work or anything special to “activate” or cast these “spells” aside from intentionally using these colors for those purposes, which makes it extra subtle. Nobody suspects that you chose to paint your nails pink because you’re using magic to attract more romance to your life. Nobody thinks anything about the fact that you chose to put on orange LED lights in your room because its the color you associate with your deity, and you want to include them some more. It’s super helpful, and extremely accessible.
