I just wanna talk about the beauty of Binx and Andheras relationship.
When Binx had the glamour of Gwyn she was gifted half of a shell from Andhera. Unintentionally he gave them a thing that holds beauty but isn't complete due to part of it missing. This is stupidly symbolic of Binx and their court.
Then theres the moment in the maze. How Andhera sees Binx, realizes that shes Gwyn by her eyes. They see her for who she truly is and accepts her entirely. I'm not gonna lie I was on the floor with emotions because of this simple moment.
Then one of the moments that made everyone scream, the crystal heart. We know from the great hart hunt that Andhera feels most comfortable in the darkness and we later learn how truly awful his court treated him. He could use the crystal heart to finally get the respect he deserves but instead they find Binx and place it in their hand. And she in turn mirrors that moment in the maze of recognition even though they can't see who it is, for she knows this is Andhera by his scent alone just as they knew it was Binx by her eyes alone. I'm just gonna stop before I go on forever about this but it was such a beautiful moment.
THE LETTERS! We as an audience are very much aware of the fact Andhera is absolute shit with words but their able to shape the words so elegantly for Binx, the letter comes from the heart for him and it's evident in how wonderful the letter ends up being. Binx leaves a simple note but sometimes the shortest phrases have the most impact. They see each other and they let the other know that.
I could go on and on about the moment in Binxs quarters but I won't. (this is in fact a lie I absolutely am) Andhera trusts them enough to ask them to make him the outfit for the ball. The vulnerability and trust that Andhera shows and gives Binx without a second thought when showing them the shard. How Binx basically spits out her disgust for what the unseelie court did to Andhera. How Andhera is a oath of devotion paladin and he swears an oath to Binxs cause. The knighting of Andhera by Binx, someone who is not of his court but is more deserving of his devotion than his court.
The apple moment lives in my head rent free as well. Andhera has never truly known what it is to have a loving family and in that moment of sharing a memory he was able to experience it for probably the first time in their life. His life has been changed forever because of Binx, she lit the kindling for his happiness. For the happiness he experienced were mere sparks but this moment caused a fire.
I love them and their relationship means so much to me. Till next time thats all. :))
I love when you’re reading multiple fics by the same author and you start to spot all the phrases and adjectives they like to use

Words from a Shawol to Arohas,
I know how you’re feeling. You don’t feel like it’s real, it can’t be true, you’re reading articles and watching videos about any possible updates. But it’s true and you feel like the ground opened up to swallow you. The unthinkable has happened, and unfortunately it happened to your beloved Moonbin.
I am not too familiar with Astro or Moonbin, but my heart is with you, and I know your pain. I thought I would give you some advice on how to get through this difficult situation.
This is all meant with love.
1, try not to watch videos with clickbait titles about him. There will be, and already is a lot out there trying to capitalize on this news, only take information from reputable sources.
2, the clickbait videos never really end. They use your dear idol to get views by saying rude things or making infuriating thumbnails. Try your best to ignore it and report the video and the account.
3, don’t feel bad if you can’t bring yourself to watch any funeral footage if there is any. It will be painful to witness, and you don’t have to put yourself through that.
4, it’s okay not to want to listen to his music for a while. Take your time and be kind with yourself.
5, find a way to remember him, if you feel it’s appropriate. For me, Jonghyun’s music saved me in a hard time in my life and I plan to get a tattoo in his honor, but I have also named my cat after his last album, Poet|Artist (we call him Poe), and every new years day I listen to a special song of his to welcome the new year.
6, find fellow Arohas to talk to. They need you as much as you need them.
7, when you feel like you can handle it, find joy in the moments Moonbin left for you. Like dance practice bloopers, photos of him smiling.. remember him on the anniversary if his last day, but celebrate him on his birthday.
8, finally, reach out for help if you feel you need it. It may seem silly to mourn someone you never met, but it’s still a very real loss with very real pain.
I hope this advice can help you find a little peace. I am so sorry for your loss.

I made this a couple of months ago but. hack your 3ds. do it right now.
Sometimes life is shitty and your spiritual practice doesn't take priority. Thats okay. Here are some tips for how to get back into your practice once you're feeling up for it.
Cleanse and Clean Your Space This is defiantly the first think you should focus your energy on. This can take as long as needed and as intensive as you want or feel is needed. Spiritual and physically cleanse your space. Pick up items, open windows and start your cleansing method of choice.
Redo Wards and Protections Once you've cleansed its important to redo your protection. Cleanse to get rid of, protect to keep it away. Even if nothing has *hit* your protections and wards, its important to keep up to date on them being energized.
Keep Actives Low on Spoons Now that you've done the basics, stick to low spoon actives and slowly build from there. Even if you feel super energized and ready to get into it- you want to take things slow. This'll help you from losing steam..
Slowly Add Back In Your Daily Practice This is totally unique person to person, but dont expect to be back into your multi step daily routine right away. Add in each step one at a time, or slowly so you wont feel overwhelmed.
Come Up with a Ritual Youre EXCITED About You want to focus on the parts of witchcraft you love. Do something you've always wanted to try, something you always love doing, or anything that will make you excited for the working.
Pick a New Topic, Not an Older One Getting into your practice and going to an older topic might feel disheartening. Pick a new topic like astrology, plants, or an aspect of witchcraft you havent gotten too into before. Then go back to the older topic you left on.
Do Some Divination on What You Need Right Now Spend time with your spirit team, deities or ancestors and figure out what you should be focusing in on right now. Maybe you need more rest, maybe theres a ritual they want you to work on.
Remember You Dont Have To Do Magic Daily Dont put too much stress into doing something every single day. Take breaks. Youre still a witch.
I hope these helped. Remember to take things slow and dont let the pressure of getting back into it weigh you down. Magic is suppose to help not hinder.

It's so hard to be in love with a ship that isn't canon, wasn't meant to be canon and will never be canon, but would've been so good if it was canon.
Darling show me magic so I can live among the ones who understand. ||she/they||
