  1. #Airisu: The Crow and the Witch

    Mikaeri Zaka/Look Back Ridge (Airisu POV) Post 30
    #Wss366 Verdant #EarthDay edition

    “So that’s the story of my first visit to the shrine,” Sumika said, finishing her saga.

    I looked up from my hunt for cracker crumbs that had fallen between the car seats to reply, “And that didn’t clue you in that the kami there had an interest in you?” I asked, cocking my head and giving her a one-eyed examination. What kind of bubblehead had I hooked up with?

    “I thought it was just some guy who’d come to our rescue.”

    “Just some guy!?”

    “Well, initially I believed it was a kami, but as I got older, I convinced myself that it was superstitious nonsense. Sis said they were both a couple of crazies.”

    “You’re the weirdest witch I’ve ever heard of!”

    “And you are the rudest crow ever to exist.”

    “Clicky, crack. Don’t bet on it.”

    At that moment, we pulled into a gravel turnoff and parked.

    “We’re home,” she said. “My father owns it and rents it to me cheaply.”

    We’d arrived at a rundown house surrounded by a surprisingly #verdant herb garden. Someone had put a lot of work into it. There were rows of rosemary, thyme, sage, and a bunch of Japanese herbs I didn’t recognize.

    “Your garden?” I asked.

    “Yeah, it helps me relax, and I use them in my magic. I told you I’m a whiz at potions.”

    As soon as we were out of the car, I started hopping around the plants. “I’m impressed,” I cawed. “Why so many European species?”

    “Those are the herbs Ariel-san is familiar with. She has been teaching me.”

    “What’s this one?” I asked, pecking at a parsley-like leaf.

    “Mugwort.”

    “And this one?”

    “Don’t peck at that! It’s devil’s trumpet, datura, jimsonweed.”

    “Ack!” I called and hopped away. “Poison, poison; You are a witch!”

    “You sound proud of that.”

    “I am. You’re my witch. A witchy witch. Where’s the nightshade hedge?”

    She looked troubled by my comment, but just said, “Let’s go inside. I’m tired, and we need to eat.”

    “Chicken Nugs!” I crowed, flying up to Sumika’s shoulder.

    #Holly + #Ivy are #Linked together through #Time.
    Akin to #Yin + #Yang, Ivy is #Feminine & Holly is #Masculine.

    In #Folklore, the #Plants were most #Powerful during #Winter
    When they #Denied #Wicked #Spirits a #Place to #Rest.

    In the #Cold months, #Evil rode the harsh #Winds & #Whistled in the driving #Snow.

    And so, the Holly + Ivy #Graced
    #Tables, #Mantles, #Doors & #Windows -
    Little #Touches that gave a #Home #Verdant #Sprigs of #Protection.
