i.
i felt like I was drowning.
in all my intimate delusions
my organs of will failed.
golden bubbles became
smoky acid became
frothy pink water
invisible hands dragged
me beneath.
ii.
i wanted to remain there.
perhaps i should let what
was dying die.
but good friends don’t
leave you in the trenches.
they become the reckoning of any that
would keep them from you, then pull you
out while running damage control like
professionals.
limbs wrapped tight
around me in flashes
between revelations of
our mortal desperations.
iii.
even as I spiral
deeper down into guilt
their voices ring out.
are you still just trying
to be a hero?
was all of this
necessary after all?
would your sacrifice
be enough to finally feed it?
is this truly the wisest call?
they just don’t want you to give
everything away to leave nothing
for yourself—
you deserve more than that—
but I know better about the ones
we love becoming our demise.

Watershed
My pillow is a watershed, Where I rest my head, Where my fears bled. It's where I cry myself to sleep, And where my secrets I keep, Where I release my heart's deep ache, And where my soul can finally break. But in the morning, it dries anew, Ready to cradle me through and through, My pillow, my sanctuary, my friend, Until the next night, where I'll confide again.

winds so strong they fan the flames/ Zeus has come here to kill us/ under the night sky I pray for rain/ baring my chest & pleasuring myself, you and Venus

Wildthings in your own Head
You say I'm intense
but not in the way you mean
it must be
The emotions i demand of thee
for, I'm an emotional queen
standing ready at her throne
subjugating you
would you bow down
and lick my need?
placate yourself
at the hem
of my seething
rage
you insolent
seed
Grow,
ragged in response
to my withering
decrees
I'd step upon
the water you'd shed
dont come
if i dont
ask
total dominion
I'd love to live in your head

#mARTch 2024
Tumblr media
text version (with more info!) under the readmore! please check it out if you're confused about anything <3
F.A.Q
do i have to draw every day? no!!!! there are skippable days built into the event, please use them whenever you need them! i really don't want anyone getting a wrist injury!
can you share my art? yep! i try to share entries to @bweirdevents daily during the event!! the tags can get busy tho so i might miss some posts OTL sorry
what are the tags? #mARTch is the main tag, but this year you might find posts in #mARTch2024 too!
wait, i'm confused about a prompt... full breakdown of all the prompts below ↓ with helpful hints if you're stuck!
_____
INTRO WEEK
this week is all about your artistic identity ... technically, you don't have to draw anything new this week if you have some art that already fits. the starter days are:
1 ⭐ self portrait who are you? it doesn't have to be you IRL .. if you feel more comfortable drawing a fursona or mascot, that's fine too! if you don't wanna draw, you can also just share old self portraits today and talk about why you drew yourself that way!
2 🤍 inspirations see how this day doesn't have a star? that means it's optional and you don't have to do it at all! but if you really wanna- tell us all about what inspires you to create art! this could be anything from the people that inspire you, the shows you like, the pins on your big messy pinterest board, or concepts that you're drawn to! you can draw something about it, talk about it, or just post your inspirations! anything is fine
3 ⭐ fav thing to draw what do you like drawing most? backgrounds? animals? one specific animal? bust of your oc facing left? cars? the same anime boy over and over and over? no judgement!! show us :)
_____
STUDY WEEK
this is the week we actually start drawing from reference! polished art is not required at all, quick sketch studies are fine! please don't burn yourself out
4 🤍 plant
5 🤍 body
6 ⭐ animal
7 🤍 object
8 🤍 food
9 🤍 face
10 ⭐ hand
these ones are pretty self explanatory! you can do them as realistic studies, or adapt them into your own art style, it's all fine! you can reference from your own photos or from resources on the web.. have fun!
_____
COLOUR WEEK
this is the week for playing with palettes and working on your colour theory skills! if you're really struggling with these ones, don't worry about drawing scenes or characters, you can just have fun splashing colours around on an abstract canvas!
11 🤍 RGB a set or primary colours typically used in digital/screen art - red, green and blue!
12 🤍 CMYK a set of primary colours typically used in traditional/print art - cyan, magenta, yellow ... and key (black!)
for both of these days ↑ you can add in black and white. and feel free to combine the two days into one, if you're struggling with a three-colour palette! use all six!
Tumblr media
13 ⭐ WARM COLOURS the warm side of the colour wheel, reds oranges and yellows!
14 🤍 MONOCHROME monochrome doesn't mean black and white ... it means one colour! that can be any colour at all- shades of red, shades of purple, shades of green .. or yeah, grey if you really want!
15 🤍 COMPLIMENTARY complimentary colours are the ones opposite each other on the colour wheel! they're kinda married
Tumblr media
16 🤍 YOUR FAV COLOURS pick any palette that works for you! where's your comfort zone? what looks nice to you? what colour combos do you always go back to?
17 ⭐ COOL COLOURS the cool side of the colour wheel, purples, blues and greens!
_____
CREATIVITY WEEK
this week is all about vibes! try to create something that matches the mood of the prompt .. they're vague on purpose! don't overthink it, just draw from the heart!
18 🤍 SMALL you could draw something that's really small, like an ant .. or draw on a canvas that's really small .. or use a really small brush .. get creative with it!
19 🤍 DANGER try to capture the adrenaline .. the rush .. the fear that you associate with the word danger!
20 ⭐ SOFT soft colours, soft textures, soft vibes ... whatever makes you comfy!
21 🤍 MIDNIGHT darkness and secrecy .. spooky witchy vibes .. the tranquility of a forest at night .. the fun of a late-night party .. there's lots of ways you can take this!
22 🤍 POWER what does this word make you think about? superpowers? control and oppression? literal electrical power? something else?
23 🤍 CHILL chill as in calm? or chill as in cold? who knows .. it's up to YOU!
24 ⭐ LOUD try to draw something that feels LOUD! BRASH! IN YOUR FACE! how can you convey sound through art?
_____
FUN + GAMES WEEK
this week is just for enjoying yourself! take it easy and have fun! also .. another reminder! there are skippable prompts! if you're tired and struggling to get to the finish line, please don't hesitate to skip a day!!! or multiple days!! as many as you need!!!
25 🤍 TRY A NEW ART STYLE copy the art style of a show you like, ask a friend if you can try their style, draw the eyes a new way, develop a totally new style on the spot... whatever you want!
26 🤍 DRAW WITH YOUR NON-DOMINANT HAND righties, draw with your left! lefties, draw with your right! ambidextrous nation ... our time to show off!
27 ⭐ DRAW WITH YOUR EYES CLOSED don't peek! try to draw something without looking! if you really want, you can colour it with your eyes open after you draw the lines/sketch with your eyes closed... but please try not to cheat with the actual drawing part!
28 🤍 RE-DRAW SOMETHING OLD find some old artwork you like, or something you feel like you can do better on now, and give it another go!
29 🤍 RE-DRAW A MEME find a silly picture on the internet to redraw .. do you have any in-jokes with your besties?
30 🤍 DRAW A GIFT FOR A FRIEND create something for someone you love <3
31 ⭐ FREE CHOICE final day! you can draw anything you want today! show off your skills! draw something you've been meaning to draw! whatever!
_____

March Week 2 - Spell and Ritual Outline
So this week's prompts sort of all ride alongside one another and go toward one common theme. How to outline and create spells and rituals. It will all focus on the who, what, when, where and how, more or less, which is a pretty good model for anything.
Monday- Basic Outline
New Page/ Lab Notebook - So for this whole ordeal this week, we're going to work mostly in our lab notebook and do some internal thinking, and research. It will be mostly one page each for spell making and ritual making for the entire week, or pages depending on how detailed you want to go. So to start out, make one page for each or add them to the pages you used to define what a spell and a ritual are.
So what are the who, what, when, where, and why of spells and rituals, to you? Make a list of these on a sheet of paper and fill them in with what you feel these things are. You can even do these on the pages you've already made. We'll expand on them as the week goes on.
Research/ new page - herbal research. Pick another herb from you list and go to town on the research! Magical and mundane uses, associations and so on!
Tuesday - purpose, method, ingredients
Research - this is about the “who” “what” and “why” what purposes can you perform a spell or ritual for? Who is the spell for? Who are you performing it on? It can be practically anything or anyone. What are you doing the spell for, what do you want it to accomplish? Looking for love? Need confidence? Want to manifest something? Want to bring more money into your life? Solidify a friendship? Protect yourself or someone else? This is followed directly by why. Why are you looking for love? Why are you protecting yourself or someone else? What you are doing and why you are doing it are intimately connected. Sometimes it can take a great deal of introspection to figure out how these are connected, other times, it is obvious.
Methodology -this is the “how” in the spell. What methods are there to casting spells and performing rituals? Look back at your types of magic pages and think hard on the ways you can cast spells for those different types of magic. Is there a certain way to prepare for spells and rituals? What steps do you take to prepare for the spell and what steps do you take after the spell or ritual? What steps are a part of the ritual? How do you actually perform the spell? Method of spellwork has everything to do with the “how” in the spell, where the purpose beforehand is the “why”.
Ingredients/ tools - this is the “what” within the spell. What ingredients if any does it require? What tools does it require? What kinds of things are a part of the spell? Incense, statues, gems and so on. What do you need to bring to the spell or ritual for it to be what it is?
Wednesday - location, direction, timing
Location and timing - this is the “where”and “when” within the spell or ritual. Is there a specific location you need to perform the spell or ritual? A specific direction you have to face? Do you have to wait for a certain day, week, month? A certain astrological sign or event, like a phase of the moon? Does the spell require you to face north or south? East or west? Or to go through all the directions? How does this information fit into your outline?
New page/ research - gemstone/ other- pick another gem or what have you from your list and research it! Everything from mundane to magical uses! How is it formed? Where is it from? So on and so forth.
Thursday - other parts of spells/ rituals
What other things are part of your spells or rituals? How do you make them yours? What personal touches and flares do you bring to your magic?
Friday - putting it to practice
Practical- if you’ve outlined the general idea of a spell and ritual, or even if you’ve made a specific one, let’s make one, and then do it! Perform the spell or ritual! And journal about it afterwards!
This has been a long and heavy week, but we made it!
Good Luck and Happy Crafting witches!
-Mod Hazel

i.
the hero’s tale goes in a way I know well; a path to redemption, I cannot forsake. now as my light threatens to flicker and quell, I search memories for the night of my soul, my watershed mistake.
I follow my hero’s journey alongside her perilous path, illuminated in a sparkling champagne sea. how long have I been in this blur of smoky wrath? at what point did I begin to wonder if this wasn’t the righteous thing?
then I remember that night in my mother’s garden, their steel spattered our blood across unforgiving snow. my actions caused a burial I wasn’t ready to have yet, and I justified another by saying I was protecting my home.
I thought it greed, the sin getting the best of me, perhaps it became anger with the unwavering strike I landed, or maybe it was my pride and conceit that made me flee from the truth that my blade fell vengeful handed.
ii.
from the hero’s downfall will come a tale of woe. when my pride is the tragic flaw I cannot bear to face, every step lets my hubris grow and brings me closer to a cursed, unholy place.
when she shattered the soul curse, I was shocked by overwhelming love and regret, but I let conceit widen the distance, and what’s worse, I condemned all we had left.
but I must continue to damnation’s gate, even if my knight of justice abandons me to my despair, for only my soul may save my kingdom’s fate and I cannot falter or waver from this destined affair.

“Hey,” the hero panted. “At least I’ll make a pretty dead body?”
The villain hissed at them beneath their breath.
“I don’t want this. You know that, right?”
The hero stilled. The chanting of the crowd grew louder.
“I know.”
The villain looked down over the edge of the stage, eyes cold and calculating as ever.
Their eyes caught on something.
When they turned to the hero, they smiled.
“Hold your breath.”
The square erupted in smoke, and everything was lost to the blur of unconsciousness.
“You’re an idiot.”
The hero blinked, half asleep.
“What?”
The villain made a low noise of irritation, and behind them, someone laughed.
“I told you not to breathe.”
The hero half smiled, vision blurry.
“Next time, say something sooner.”
“God, why did I save you—“
The hero shifted to laugh, and felt bandages wrapping around their wrists. They frowned, pulling it up to their face.
The villain watched them, carefully.
“Bandages?”
The villain nodded.
“You were bleeding.”
“I don’t remember—“
“Suppressants affect the ability to feel pain. A mercy, if you were to be executed, but a curse if you get wounded.”
The hero made to unwrap one, see the damage, and the villains cool fingers closed around their wrist.
“Stop it.”
“You didn’t tell me they were reckless,” the same laughing voice as before said, and the hero snapped their gaze to them.
They grinned.
“Hello, there.”
The hero’s power sputtered to life, as if pushing past the final dregs of the suppressors, and slammed out into the room, exploring every nook and cranny. It slid along the skin of the newcomer, testing, as if figuring out what power they held.
A moment later, the hero gagged, retching.
The villain simply watched them, unconcerned, hand still on their wrist, but the newcomer frowned.
“Are you—“
“I hate fire wielders,” the hero gasped, covering their mouth. “You taste like smoke and feel like suffocation.”
The newcomer stilled, and their power told them with no shortage of glee that their name was Alex, and it the hero wanted the flames wreathed within their skin, they could have them.
Alex glanced to the villain. “How did they…”
The villain examined the hero’s hand, before pressing a nail into their skin.
The hero’s power practically purred, sliding back into their skin. When the villain smiled, it was feral.
“Their power is a loathsome little thing. Just too far on this side of sentient. A curious thief and magic rolled into one.”
The hero made to yank their hand away, and their power protested.
The hero left their wrist in the villains grasp.
Alex’s eyebrows pinched. “So why aren’t you affecting them?”
The villain’s smile, if anything, grew sharper.
“Could be the gas, from when we saved their life,” With their free hand, the tipped the hero’s chin up to examine their eyes. “Or, could be that they like me, and their power likes me too.”
The hero flushed.
“It does not—“
The villain swiped a finger on their forearm, and the hero’s power glowed at the contact.
They didn’t even realize they’d copied the villain’s powers until they tasted the stardust and wind that came with telepathy and teleportation.
Right. Suppressors.
If the hero hadn’t been so hopped up on suppressors earlier, teleportation would have gotten them out much easier than gas. From the look on the villain’s face, they knew that too.
People had learned the hard way not to teleport those who have been suppressed. Magic didn’t like it.
The villain snorted.
“You’re an asshole,” the hero bit out, and their power curled around their newfound toy like a baby dragon, hoarding it in their chest. Alex’s thoughts were unimaginably load.
“God, how can you be around anyone, ever?”
The villain cocked their head. It wasn’t the first time the hero had asked that question.
Behind them, Alex left. Blessedly, it got quiet.
“Practice,” the villain admitted. “A lot of it.”
The hero wanted to shove the telepathy out of them, but their power simply held on tighter.
“It won’t let go.”
“Mm. Quite the noxious creature.”
“I’m the one living with it.”
The villain hummed, hand tracing along the edges of the bandages.
“I would never have let you die.”
The hero simply thought, I know.
The villain smiled.
I love you, the villain’s eyes bore into them, thought flung across the void between their brain and the hero’s.
The hero took their hand. The villain let them. “I know.”
In their chest, their power finally, finally settled, as if it had been waiting for this all along.
