     Out with crystals and thyme white women witches that can warm their coffee cup with a hand and work their magic with spells and in with diverse ordinary gothy overweight witches that solve their problems with psychology and weird fucking plants and burning things (including property)

     This is actually something I take from and love about Terry Pratchett's interpretation of witches. See wizards and witches are cleanly delineated (god bless Eskarina Smith i love her with my whole heart), wizards do spellcraft and study, zappy wands and lots of writing and experiments and explosions. witches dont. their magic is understanding the true nature of things and knowing where to push. they communicate and form connections and actually do the hard work nobody else bothers to

     You go to them both because you're having trouble casting spells and a wizard is listening to u speak and thinking "oh thats just Godzboggle's fourth rhyme incantation probably. whens my dinner i am so fucking hungry right now" whereas a witch is listening to you speak and thinking "theres stress in that face and voice. also theyre continually dehydrated so of course their hands cant grasp the wand right. ill pencil them in for a tea at noon and maybe theyll drink more"

     a witch isnt a white lady homeopath that can realign your spine and cure your asthma, a witch is a queer gothy genderfuck who works night shifts at a hospital and still somehow finds time to sit down and lend you an ear when you need it, can totally give you a weird fucky homemade ointment and some homegrown weed to go with it grown out of the fucked together remains of her hydroponic experimentation interest fixation

     @lanodan Yeah I actually went back to read Equal Rites (i didnt manage it because adhd lol) and the opening scene with the wizard talking over the midwife who is trying to warn him that hes giving wizards magic to a newborn baby girl is absolutely hilarious
