History Of Witchcraft [Week 1 : Thursday, Period 4, Main Campfire]

[sensethevisions]

Phoebe was standing in front of a chair in front of other chairs that were pulled up around the campfire.

"Hey guys, welcome to History of Witchcraft," she said in a cheerful voice. "I'm Phoebe Halliwell and I'll be your so-called instructor for the next seven weeks. Calling me Phoebe is fine, please do not call me Miss Halliwell." She grinned and looked over at Tori. "Tori Hanson is your TA. Us being cheerful is to be expected as we are both graduates and Gremlin Cheerleaders!" She beamed. "Over the next few weeks we're going to cover some of the definitions of witchcraft, some of the most historical events pertaining to Witchcraft and anything else that we might decide is pertinent to the course."

She sat down and looked at the students.

"Okay, since this is the first workshop, it's going to be a pretty easy day. I want you to tell me who you are, what you hope to get out of this workshop, and what you think the definition of witchcraft is. Also, if there is anything in specific you would like me to teach or touch on in the workshop." She tilted her head. "And yes, before you ask, I do have sufficient knowledge and reason for teaching this workshop. I am a witch and have had to pick up quite a bit of knowledge and scars the hard way." Her eyes clouded for a moment, but then cleared up again. "I'm hoping that I can help you guys get some of this knowledge in a little bit easier of circumstances."

"I'm Chris Halliwell and I'm half witch, half white lighter," Chris said, reciting what Phoebe already knew for the benefit of the rest of the class. "My powers include telekinesis and orbing - which is a kind of teleportation. I can also write badly rhymed spells and make potions."

"Wyatt Halliwell," Wyatt said. He pointed to Chris. "What he said, pretty much."

"I'm Lana Lang and I really don't have any abilities myself, but I'm very interested in witchcraft and magic," lana said.

"I'm Summer Roberts and, um, I'm not a witch or anything, but I know some people who are," Summer said. "So I figured it might be good to learn more about witchcraft."

"I'm called Andros," Andros said, "I'm from the planet KO-35 and I have telekinesis. There are magic users where I come from but I'm not very familiar with Earth's history of witchcraft,"

Anders felt a little silly doing this, but it was for the benefit of the rest of the class.

"I'm Samuel Anders, but just Anders to the rest of you guys," he said. "I'm seventeen, about to be a senior, and from the planet Caprica. No special powers and no magic abilities; I'm just a jock with pretty good aim."

He glanced around the classroom and turned a little bit red as he added, "And since I'm, you know, dating a witch, I'd kinda like to learn a little bit more about what she does."

"I'm Prue Halliwell and I'm a witch. My powers are telekinesis and astral projection. I can also write spells and make potions." she said. She then smiled and gave Phoebe a cute little wave. "Hey Pheebs!"

"I'm Adam Park," He smiled shyly and waves slightly. "I'm sixteen, going to be a junior and I don't have any magic powers or special abilities." Adam admitted. "But I'd like to learn more about witches and witchcraft, other than what I've learned at my old highschool."

Definition of Witchcraft

[sensethevisions]

"What do you think the definition of witchcraft is?"

Re: Definition of Witchcraft

[neurotic-witch.livejournal.com]

"Well, the literal definition is the art or practices of a witch," Chris replied. "But I think you probably want a broader scope than what the dictionary would say."

He gave a dorky grin before continuing. "I think witchcraft is a way of life for those who are drawn to it, regardless of if they're drawn to it by nature or by intellectual curiosity."

Re: Definition of Witchcraft

[blessed_twice]

"Witchcraft is using magic," Wyatt said. "It's taping into power that's all around us and using it to heal and protect."

Re: Definition of Witchcraft

[lovelylana.livejournal.com]

"I think it has to do with the study and practice of certain types of magic," Lana replied.

Re: Definition of Witchcraft

[absolutesnark]

Summer thought about that for a moment. "Witchcraft is practicing magic and stuff. I think."

Re: Definition of Witchcraft

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

Anders shrugged. "I want to just say it's magic use. But there's too many people around here who use magic in different ways. So I know it's more specific than that, but I'm not sure how."

Re: Definition of Witchcraft

[im-afrog.livejournal.com]

"Witchcraft has to do with using magic, creating spells and potions of the sort." Adam answered. That's what he'd always thought magic to be.

Chatter

[sensethevisions]

Because, come on, it's summer and it will happen. In fact, it's expected.

Re: Chatter

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

Anders pinged into this thread so as to put a big ol' target on his back miiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight have been spending most of his time grinning dorkily at Phoebe, but he was interruptable. Really.

Re: Chatter

[lovelylana.livejournal.com]

After their earlier class, Lana was completely avoiding Wyatt.

Talk to Phoebe

[sensethevisions]

Because she's here and likes to chat.

Re: Talk to Phoebe

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

"So," Anders teased lightly, "am I gonna get in trouble for flirting with the teacher?"

OOC

[sensethevisions]

Because every thread needs one since we don't want anything else to be blown up. :)
