Gothic Witch (Gumroad)
Content
"Darn it!" I curse under my breath as I make my way through the autumn forest.
"Who would have thought I'd have to trek deep into the woods and seek help from a witch? In this day and age?"
The closer and closer I got to witches' lair the eeriness intensified. I though that pumpkin and candles were just a Halloween gag, but apparently this one decided it is also a fitting decoration for her house.
I nervously knock on the door.
"I'm coming!" says the feminine voice inside.
I inhale, then exhale, preparing myself for this bizarre interaction... but nothing happens. I knock again.
"I'm really, really close - please wait a second!" witch responded with a muffled voice, as if she was biting something.
Baffled, I decided that I might as well sit down and enjoy the spooky atmosphere around me.
Not long after I hear loud shuffling and glass clanking - door finally opens.
"I'm terribly sorry dear traveler, I was preparing a potion and was too engrossed in it - I couldn't stop!"
Before me stood a woman who both could be a which, but very well be cute goth influencer. Judging from the house decorations I anticipated a long medieval dress with a comically big hat.
I was sorely mistaken.
The combination of black fishnets and black lacey dress enchanted me so much, that only after a couple of seconds of scanning her from head to toe I noticed her hair twintails looked more like a bed hair and her dress' shoulder straps did not stay where they ought to be.
"E-, um-" I stuttered. "Ms. Shizuka I assume?"
"Yes, how can I help you, fine gentelman?" she asked, playing with her hair.
"My friend has recommended your services to me, so I came - I heard you have a magical way of curing stress?"
"Naturally! Your visit is right on time, I've just prepared a new batch of the drug, freshly squeezed." she winked and waved her hand at me "Come on in."
I looked around the plain room with plethora of plants, pots and candles scattered everywhere. My eyes however were not impressed and went back to tracing movements of a pair of slender legs before me.
Shizuka picked up a bottle of yellow opaque liquid from the floor and reached out to me.
"Here you go! Bottoms up!"
"Um, what is this though - if I may?"
"Oh, it's a mix of special juices you see." ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
