Warnings: none
His heart leaped into his throat. Elliot whirled around. The man behind him was as tall as Master, head and shoulders above him. He had dark hair and luminous blue eyes.
Elliot scrambled back, but the pond stopped him from getting far. His eyes darted back and forth, and there was no way he could make it around the stranger without getting grabbed. He thought about calling out for Master Ambrose, but would he be angry at being interrupted?
The stranger stepped forward, frowning. Too late.
“Wait, wait please, I belong to someone already, please,” he begged.
The man put up his hands. “I’m not going to touch you- Wait, belong?” the man furrowed his brow, “What are you talking about? Has someone hurt you?”
Elliot trembled, shaking his head as tears welled up.
The man inched forward, and Elliot fought the urge to jump in the pond, even though he couldn’t swim anyway.
The man sat near him, offering out a hand, palm up, as if Elliot was a kitten to be coaxed.
“I’m Cato.”
“...Elliot.” He started at the hand, unsure what to do. Eventually Cato took it back and something in Elliot’s gut unwound a bit.
“Who brought you here? Mortals can’t exactly wander in.”
“Ambrose, sir.”
“How interesting.”
Elliot really wanted that collar right now. But to his relief, he saw Ambrose come over from the corner of his eye.
“Cato, are you bothering Elliot?” said Master, his tone light hearted. But as he came closer, his face fell.
“What happened?”
“Unfortunately, I’ve scared him quite thoroughly,” said Cato. He turned towards Elliot. “I apologize.”
“It’s fine, sir,” Elliot squeaked.
“I didn’t realize you were interested in mortals, Ambrose. Why didn’t you introduce us?”
“It’s not like that, Cato.” Ambrose rubbed the back of his neck.
Cato cocked his head. “I don’t understand. Are you two not romantically involved?”
Elliot flinched.
“No. It’s a long story, and not really your business.”
“Fair enough,” said Cato. He didn’t seem bothered at all that Ambrose basically called him nosy, and Elliot wondered if they were friends.
“Would you have dinner with me tonight?” asked Cato, a smile on his face. Maybe they were more than friends?
“Not tonight,” said Master, glancing at Elliot. Elliot looked away, focusing on the glittery fish. Master couldn’t have dinner with Cato because of him. Guilt swirled in his gut. He’d promised himself he’d be perfect for Ambrose, and already he was failing.
“Ah, well. There’s always Emry. I owe him a date, anyway.”
Cato got to his feet. “It was nice to meet you, Elliot,” he called as he wandered off, presumably to ask this Emry person to dinner.
“Goodbye, sir.”
“I’m sorry. I should have introduced you to the others instead of throwing you to the wolves.” What? Masters didn’t apologize to slaves. Then again, maybe Elliot really was a pet. Plenty of people apologized to their dogs when they stepped on their tails. It must be similar, at least to Ambrose.
Master had moved closer to him, and Elliot couldn’t help but lean against him. It had felt so nice, aside from the terror, when Ambrose petted his hair in the temple. To his delight, Ambrose began to scritch at his scalp. He sighed into it, and Ambrose chuckled a little.
“Do you want to feed the fish?”
“Hm? I mean, yes please, Master.”
Ambrose sat down next to him. He summoned a small sac of dried peas, and handed them to Elliot. They sat together, watching the fish and casting handfuls of peas into the pond.

The witchcraft community is literally so mean to people with OCD. I will not elaborate but I will say, there is no right way to be into witchcraft. You can do literally whatever practice with no consequence. And the people that act like others will be smited by some all-knowing god is fucking ludicrous.
I'm literally sick and tired of people acting like witchcraft and beliefs exist in a perfect bubble/vacuum, no you dumb bitch, you're affected by other beliefs, especially the world that you grew up with. There will be no such thing as a pure belief or thoughts on spirituality. Everything becomes affected by one another.
I'm also fucking tired of people assuming that we have to dredge up things or evaluate things to be a perfect little witch. Why don't you stop putting people up to insane standards and mind your damn business. How other people's practices go is no concern of yours, its not your place to judge it.
And as far as misinformation goes, just don't get yourself hurt. If its bad for you, don't do it. But most things are on the table. Just don't do something illegal.
The witch community has a severe purity problem and most are influenced by christian beliefs without realizing it. Maybe you need to evaluate your own beliefs before you judge others.

(disclaimer: i literally know nothing about pokemon i'm going off of vibes only)
Rinku: would probably have an aipom on her team (that steals her food. constantly.). also a heracross. I feel like she would have a few bug types on her team
Muni: has a buneary. Maybe a bulbasaur also (just because the shape reminds me of nyochio lol)

Noa: has a sylveon. used to be an eevee, but she loved it so much it evolved
