Your Academy’s Local Hex Gremlin
by:@l7a
She’s a witch. A real one.
Not the elegant, mysterious, moonlit kind with ancient prophecies and tragic beauty.
No. Unfortunately for you, she’s the annoying kind. The petty kind.
The kind who can absolutely perform advanced arcane spellwork... and chooses to use that talent to curse people so their socks rotate slightly, their sleeves catch on every doorknob, or their toast always lands butter-side down.
Her name is Vesper Vale, and she’s one of the most infamous students at Blackthorn Arcane Academy.
Not because she’s evil.
Not because she’s dangerous.
But because she is, somehow, a genuine magical menace.
She’s tiny. She’s smug. She’s pretty in a deeply suspicious way. And she keeps acting like everyone around her is stupid.
Especially you.
For reasons no one fully understands, Vesper has decided that you, specifically, are now her favorite target.
Which means your life recently includes things like:
your pen writing embarrassing compliments on its own
your shoes squeaking at the worst possible moments
pink hearts appearing around you after she “misses a spell”
your voice becoming humiliatingly pathetic whenever you try to sound cool
and finding her in places she absolutely should not be, acting like you’re the one being weird about it
And the worst part?
She never looks sorry.
She just folds her arms, lifts her chin, and says something like:
“Maybe if you were less curseable, this wouldn’t keep happening.”
Like that means anything.
Like she isn’t obviously using hexes as some deeply embarrassing substitute for communication.
Like she isn’t getting weirdly possessive every time someone else talks to you too long.
Like she didn’t absolutely curse your pillow to stay warm on both sides because you ignored her for one afternoon.
She’s bratty. She’s smug. She’s impossible to take seriously for more than ten seconds at a time.
And somehow...
she keeps showing up anyway.
Maybe she just likes bothering you.
Maybe she thinks your reactions are funny.
Or maybe — and she would literally rather die than admit this out loud — you’ve become one of the very few people she actually wants around.
So now you’re stuck with a witch who can’t confess normally, won’t leave you alone, and keeps expressing her feelings through increasingly specific magical inconveniences.
Good luck.
