WHO: Noelle Lange & OTA. WHAT: Attempting some magic. WHEN: Monday afternoon. WHERE: Starbucks. WARNINGS: Probably none. STATUS: Incomplete/Open (though could be a narrative if no one tags in).
Awhile back when they had first discovered the Book of Spells, Reed had made some copies of basic spells and had handed them out to the other Billings Girls. Of course, as Noelle had been skeptical at the time, she'd only taken it to humor her half sister but truthfully, she had simply tossed it into one of her many piles of junk and never seen it since.
To her surprise, it had shown up amongst her work papers. She had no idea how it got here, but she did remember hearing about how the dome gave gifts once in awhile. Maybe that was what happened, though she'd rather have her funds than some piece of paper. Still, she didn't toss it into the garbage like she normally would have. Instead, she took it with her.
She worked until it was lunchtime, leaving and heading to Starbucks. Ordering a cappuccino and a brownie, she found and empty seat and began sipping her coffee. She tried to work on some work but couldn't focus. She decided to attempt a spell. Back then she didn't believe magic was real, but she'd been here long enough to know that it was.
She settled on that levitating spell the others had tried, but instead of a spoon she used a piece of her brownie. "Levitas," she muttered quietly but nothing happened. She repeated a few more times, but still nothing happened and she felt silly. She continued though until she saw the brownie piece move slightly. Or did she just imagined it? She kept going, though. Before she would've just given up. But here? She had learned anything was possible.
