(rbs appreciated!)

In a last ditch attempt to save your people, you offer your life to an ancient god of war and blood. Unfortunately, your translation of the ancient text was a bit off. You're married now.

even more job ideas for your western/cowboy oc that are not outlaws, bounty hunters, or sheriffs

wanted poster sketch artist - try your darnedest, some of the descriptions folks will give you will be really... something

owner of a small inn/old trading post in the middle of nowhere - days are slow, but ever so often you get travelers stopping by to rest or replenish their things

stablehand for a traveling wild west show like "Buffalo Bill's" - working with performers is tough (they always think they're the main character ugh), you prefer the company of animals and enjoy watching shows from behind-the-scenes

a small town's local barber... and dentist... and surgeon...

saloon piano player - inebriated patrons amuse and annoy you

snake oil salesperson - do you brew your own magic juice or are you just a pawn in a larger business?

sunday school "teacher" - you were not quite educated yourself, but you were the only able-bodied adult in town without kids or family, so you got assigned daycare duty

Hey there! Can I request some vampire AU prompts

Of course! I’m not sure if this is exactly what you wanted, so let me know and I’ll adjust. (In every prompt, A is the vampire)

Vampire AU Prompts

Since A is a vampire, they can’t see themselves in the mirror. Every morning, B draws a doodle of A, writes a compliment underneath it and sticks it on the mirror.

A strongly resembles a dead celebrity, so they often dress up as that celebrity and walk around in public to create immortality rumours.

A has only been a vampire for a few years and is trying to continue their normal life. When people ask A how they don’t age, they claim it’s because of their skincare routine. This accidentally causes A to gather a following as a skincare expert.

B is a human who told all their friends that they have a vampire significant other. This, of course, is a lie, so they seek out A and beg them to date them so that B won’t be seen as a liar.

People think that vampires are creatures of the night who wear all black. In reality, they’re doctors who suck illness out of patients.

A accidentally kills a human. Out of panic and guilt, they shapeshift to look like that human and try living their life.

A spent their whole life as a vegan. Now that they’re a vampire, they have to find a solution to not drinking blood.

newest issue of first years fashion just dropped

what was even the point of "we talk it through as a crew" and "indestructible little fucker" and "well, if you want, i could be family" and "it's not about getting what you want, it's about belonging to something when the world has told you nothing" and "for the new unicorn" if they were just going to throw it all away in the finale

A modern take on magic symbols

Just an idea, but more modern spirits, and older spirits who've stuck around into the modern age probably haven't ever seen certain types of warding or other magic symbols before, or haven't seen them in a very long time. The idea that older symbols would effect them is based on the supposition that the symbol itself is inherently magical, as opposed to the practitioner's own intent or interpretation.

But, if we consider intent, and/or interpretation as being part of how a symbol operates, and if we also consider how the spirit may interpret specific symbols, then for modern witches, might I suggest some alternative symbols for a modern warding?

A standard UK (and I think a fair number of other countries) stop sign. People see it, and boom, you feel a urge to stop. You see it, and it's not just a suggestion, it's a command. Why should it not apply to spirits? Either your own interpretation gives the symbol power, or the spirits interpretation does. Either way, right? Then we've got restricted access - use it to deny any spirits you don't want, whilst allowing the ones you do want in, because they're 'authorised personnel '. The last one I think is UK specific, (correct me if I'm wrong!) The double red line indicates that there is to be no stopping in this location at any time -- I like to think of this as working for a protective circle or threshold ward. You could also use a single red line, no stopping except at specified times, or double yellow -- no waiting at any time, and so on. For cleansing spells invoke the names of powerful modern cleaning agents as you cleanse, or invoke the names of a local refuse removal company. For exorcisms, quote trespass laws as the spell!

Don't get bogged down in the idea that tradition is inherently superior, (not to say traditional methods are bad, I use folk magic practices in ancestor veneration or in specific environments), or stuck in the idea that you can only use certain symbols in certain contexts (discounting closed practices here, if you're not of that culture, don't use their stuff!). Magic is simply a mindset, a point of view, and as such, what matters most in a practice is how you specifically view your practice!

You are a person who covers your counter space in clutter and inadvertently makes a shrine to a long forgotten god who shows up to thank you.
