Added 2023-01-08 09:19:36 +0000 UTCHas it been hard to unlearn/stop practicing rituals to ward off curses?
Oh, yes. I still carry a few charms around with me.
What is your worst fear?
Well, catching fire again is probably a big one. Or having my curse kill me in some other way.
What is your favorite thing to do with your spell?
I just like to fiddle with stone. I try to carry one with me so I don’t get tempted to idly reshape walls and stuff.
I know your apprenticeship would end if your curse didn't awaken by the time you are 21, but since it did, is there a clause saying that you can stop the apprenticeship if you want to?
No, apprenticeships don’t work like that. I’m done when my Master pronounces me qualified.
What is your worst regret? How old is Holly now? What is her favorite toy?
Holly is five, and she has a giant plush dragon that she loves.
If you had a choice, would you go to Heaven or would you still pick apprenticeship?
To… heaven? What do you mean? My apprenticeship did save my life, by putting me in proximity with Max at the time my spell awoke, and learning to control the spell has probably saved my life since. So, obviously, I would choose the path where I do not burn to death and possibly kill my daughter as well.
Do you have a familiar or fetish? If not, do you intend to?
No, and not unless I have to.
How long were you planning the Coven Uprising?
Well, it was obvious that somebody needed to deal with the Kylie situation from the start. After it became clear that the kids were dissatisfied, the way forward became clear.
If you had a chance to get rid of your spell, would you take it?
Yes, of course.
Did you have a favorite fairy tale as a kid? If so, what was it?
I was never really into fairy tales. They usually had curses in them and they were too scary.
