@tricoufamily's duo challenge!
-ˋˏ✄ ━━━━━━━━━━━ ⊱⚱️⊰ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⋆˚ ‧
⌞ When Heather Charm, the sole non-magical member of her sorcerous family, seeks acceptance from her mother, she forms a pact with a mysterious spirit, who promises to teach her the secrets of magic. ⌝
Amidst the vast halls of the Charm family, where magic infused every corner with its presence, Heather Charm stood as the peculiar exception. Niece to the esteemed Minerva Charm and cousin to the gifted Darrel and Gemma Charm, Heather bore the weight of her lineage with a heavy heart. Branded as the family's black sheep for her lack of magical prowess, she harbored a fervent desire to redeem her honor.
With determination ablaze within her, Heather delved into realms beyond conventional magic. Venturing into the enigmatic world of psychic phenomena, she sought solace and strength amidst the whispers of her family's disappointment.
In a moment of audacious resolve, Heather forged an alliance with a potent spirit, binding it to her very essence. In this pact, woven from threads of desperation and ambition, the spirit pledged to guide her along the path less trodden, promising to unearth the latent power that lay dormant within her ancient bloodline.
— But in the shadows of uncertainty, whispers lingered.

(@itsmariejanel I always imagined Heather as also being Jace's cousin as I played her a while back 🤭 However, it's time for her to inhabit her own universe 👋🤧)

I made some Jashtober prompts to use as an inktober type thing! You can draw, write, or use any medium you want. You also definitely dont HAVE to make pieces based on Jash media, draw whatever the heck you want!
This is a daily challenge, but don't feel pressured to hit every day. People who have barely drawn before are also very welcome! This challenge is meant for people to have fun and improve their art
Have fun Jashers!

strawberries & lemonade
i have wanted to write something for this month’s @steddiemicrofic challenge, but i have been unable to get my brain to do anything with it for some reason. however! that ended tonight and i was able to write this and now i’m gonna think about witch!steve for the rest of forever. thank you @sailing-through-hawkins and @hammity-hammer for enabling me. alternative title: how much world building can rowan fit into this ficlet? answer: tbd
prompt: charm || word count: 548 || rated: t
If you needed something magic related, there was only one place in Hawkins to find it.
Okay, well, maybe that was a lie, but there was only one place that anyone with any self respect would go to. Which is why Eddie found himself approaching the Harrington cottage at the barrier between town and the wilds.
Eying the edge of the wilds warily, Eddie carefully made his way up the stone path to the front door. When he looked up at the front door, he was surprised to see the witch leaning against the railing of his porch. He wasn’t exactly what Eddie had been expecting; he was wearing a worn yellow shirt with brown leggings, and some brown leather boots. Atop his head wasn’t a stereotypical witch hat, but his hair was tucked into what appeared to be a crocheted hair bandana. All of that is to say, he didn’t look like who Eddie had expected to find when he left the small place he called home that afternoon.
“Well met,” Eddie breathed, eyes wide as he met Steve’s gaze head on.
“Well met,” Steve returned, smiling slightly. He gestured towards a small set up where he had put out lemonade and fresh fruit, “Come sit. We can talk.” Eddie’s stomach immediately growled as he walked up the steps to sit where Steve had motioned.
“Are the stories true?” Eddie asked, looking at the food and beverage with apprehension. Steve sat across from him, sitting with his legs folded under him.
“What stories?” Steve asked, before noticing his apprehensive demeanor and snorted. “No.”
Eddie flushed, ducking his head as he muttered a quiet, but sincere apology. He reached out and grabbed a strawberry, humming happily as he bit into it.
“My uncle is sick,” Eddie said, as he sipped the lemonade. The witch hummed, eating one of the strawberries himself. “I heard you’re the best.”
“You heard correctly,” Steve said, nodding. “What ails him?”
“We..we think it’s a curse.”
“We?”
“I,” Eddie amended, looking sheepish. “I think it’s a curse.”
Steve hummed and looked at Eddie expectantly, which the man took as a sign to continue. He explained the little he did know about his uncle’s condition, a persistent fever that refused to go down, with fever dreams of black dogs plaguing his fitful sleep. All the while, Steve listened carefully, looking more and more angry as he continued.
“I agree with your assessment,” Steve said, standing abruptly. “Stay here.” He said before disappearing into the cottage, leaving Eddie sitting on his porch alone. When he returned, Steve held out a small charm. Eddie hesitated briefly before grabbing it.
“Put this beneath his pillow for three nights, and the fever will break and the dreams will cease,” Steve explained, eyebrows furrowed, betraying his concern. “Nights only,” He reiterated. Eddie nodded slowly, peering at the small charm curiously.
After a moment, Eddie looked up at the witch. “I don’t have a lot to offer in return,” he admitted guiltily.
Steve smiled softly, “I only ask for a boon.”
“A boon?”
“You will know,” Steve said, reaching out for Eddie’s hand, covering it completely with his own. Eddie hissed, shaking it out before realizing Steve had seared his sigil onto the back of his hand. “And you will come.”

Miss Mischievous Fearne
An elbow injury and a severe lack of motivation made completing this incredibly detailed chaotic friend quite difficult. But, she’s finished at last! Hopefully the solstice tonight doesnt end in a tpk...
Early on, Fearne was fairly easy to paint, then slowly she became more and more overwhelming. Combine the daunting task of getting all her details just right with some tendonitis, and I found myself having to walk away for a while. I’m not fully satisfied but I realized if I don’t stop now, she’ll never be done, and that’s the opposite of the growth I’m aiming for.
Anyways, I’m working on Orym already and he’s actually going really well, and has boosted my confidence again. After he is done, I think I’m going to do Chetney, followed by Ashton, FCG, and lastly Dorian.
Here’s the other completed Hells so far: Imogen - Laudna
