anon text.

[ josh is looking a bit too disconcertingly mountain man-ish to pull off video, and he's too interested in not announcing his supernatural status to go for voice. that means anonymous text, though he's slightly reluctant to send it; he's aware this is a very weird and very specific question. ]

Who has experience with witches and shapeshifters? Either or, but if you know anything about an overlap, i.e. magic being used to prevent or prolong a shift, please share with the class.

And just to clarify: magic as in black magic, the kind with corpses and soul trading and other non-refundable mistakes. Mary Poppins need not apply.


[ and by mary poppins he means you jokers with the pink hair and the antlers. but that only covers one possibility, so a few extremely reluctant seconds later: ]

Or if you've ever just heard of shapeshifters getting stuck. Like, stuck in one form. Please share that too.

I'd say try me but I'm almost afraid to ask.

...Would it have killed you to mention the dying thing in the first place? Was it you or someone else having to need the conversion?


[ because maybe there's an I WAS DOING IT FOR SOMEONE ELSE CLAUSE. ]

Technically if you're a werewolf, wouldn't you be cursed to be a wolf and not a dog?

[ that is not the point, but give him a second to run down the list of wolves who have been quiet that he knows about and aren't derek who naturally is quiet. ]

There should be some clause that— if you're going to bring someone else back to life that's not selfish. It's not you bringing yourself back to life. Most not soup kitchen witches should be at least slightly sympathetic to that.

Why am I not somehow surprised it's you who got yourself into this situation?

Barring Miss Witch Who Was Breaking Good Witch Rules, I would think that there's some clause with other witches, the ones that aren't opportunistic assholes, that if you were doing it for a good cause that maybe you could have this little mishap reversed.

Also, seriously, just a day or two a month?

Consider it a testament to how weird your life is and how there was a very small pool of people who had the potential to have this problem.

Sometimes have to go to space. I assume that happens in the future. Imagine it, getting off world things for spells. If they don't offer that solution, remind them where they are, because bargaining for souls on a spaceship is a little stupid. What are you going to do with it? Get yourself off here? Come on.

...At the risk of repeating myself, that's not even far. If you've got the added days in a month, you should get the extra day.

Could just make the spells go haywire in a bad way because it's not the right resources.

[ ...yeah no that's optimistic. ]

As pessimistic as it sounds, she'd run out of them eventually. Did it even do anything for her? The eating, I mean.

Still kind of bullshit.

You're really going to leave the story there.

[ call him curious, okay!! it sounds faintly interesting tbqh. ]

I can at least safely say I know zero witches who'd do that. Which doesn't help you, but look on the half bright side, they're not all soul sucking bitches.

[ before there's a reply of actual words there's a picture sent that looks like this. why in god's name. ]

How do you even do that?

[ yes because clearly josh has the answer. ]

[ because there is no other real response possible but judging, okay. honestly, josh, you could poll everyone about it. ]

What, did she eat too many spicy, artery clogging foods? [ that was a horrible comment to make so he follows it up with that. ] I would think that helped more. The personality made it...fiery. No matter how I word that I can't entirely take myself seriously saying that.

Go. Try not to eat the device. Slobber's gross as a human. Send a text when you're human again for a bit.

[ and done, go us. ]
