A witchy one on one (closed)

(It's fine. all inspiration for his tragic backstory, am i right? also, just gimme a sec for the starter.)

(lol yeah, and Oki)

(Sorry this took so long!)

Tolly slammed open Levi's dorm room, disturbing his friend's roomate- Castor or Stella or… something like that- as he stalked through the room. Right when he needed Levi, the guy decided to disappear. "Hey… Caitlen, have you seen Levi around? I need his divination notes."

Cas had changed out of his normal school clothes for the day and pulled on his uniform to work. He had finished classes in the morning so now he had the rest of the day free to be in the shop. Walking a few buildings away from his form, he opened the doors to what seemed like a Hot Topic-esque store, dimly lit with anything and everything one needed to use for self remidoes and potions. Most kids though he ran a drug store and those same kids would usually ask for illegal drugs. When Cas told him what he actually did, most just sneered and left. He was ok with being alone, he didn't mind the solitudarity that came with the job

Caitlin shook her head, giving him a muted glare. Tolly paid her no mind, huffing as he stormed out of the room. Where could Levi be? He wasn’t in his room, or with Flora or any of his friends, or anywhere on campus- at least, not that Tolly could tell. He groaned, sitting down in the common room to text Levi a quick where u at? and pray for a response.

Fifteen minutes later, he got one. that weird potion store. Cait needs ingredients

Cas glanced up as someone entered the store, "hello, what can I-" he blinked as he saw it was his crush, damn. I'm screwed "-help you with today?"

Levi took in the shop with a frown, grimacing at the musty shelves and dark wood. The frown disappeared somewhat as he looked at the boy behind the counter because he was familiar. They shared a couple classes and he’d always been nice enough. “Dragon scales, pixie wings, and… phoenix ashes. I think.”

Cas nodded "alright, let me get those for ya. What's the potion for?" He asked, grabbing a bag and bustling around the room, grabbing little vials of the ingredients

“I’m not really sure,” he confessed, brushing some of his blond hair out of his eyes. “I’m grabbing them for my sister.”

He nodded, finding the small gesture cute. "Sounds like some sort of incantation spell or something. Is Caitlin doing something special?" remebering Levi's sister from their first day of class and a few conversations they've had

Levi nodded, wracking his brain for what Caitlin had been gushing to him the night before over a pint of ice team. “Yeah! She’s going to do one of those love spells to see if Tolly’s interested in her.”

"aw thats cute! is he?" he asekd as he walked over to a shelf and grabbed a vial with seemingly nothing in it. "Here, hell her to use this, siren's sound. It'll help y a lot." he said with a smile "free of charge."

“You don’t have to do that, I can pay,” Levi protested, a bit put off by the gift. “And Tolly’s been hung up on someone else, Cait’s not going to get anywhere.”

"then consider it a gesture of kindness from a friend and fellow warlock." He said, organizing a bit and heading back to the counter "who's he hung up on if not cait? Every guy who's not gay or bi is pinning for her."

Levi tilted his head at Cas, frowning a bit. "I'd prefer if you didn't talk about my sister that way," he said, voice dark with half concealed anger. "And Tolly's been stuck on some guy from out history of magic class. He's not interested in anyone else, least of all Cait."

He glanced up "I didn't mean any disrespect. I only meant that she's a great person and really nice. She deserves someone who makes her happy. More than Half the guys here don't deserve her." He said softly. " Here's you're purchase, along with the sirens song. Hope it goes well with the spells goes right."

(I've been meaning to ask, how do you wanna incorporate the love potion?)
"Oh…" Levi deflated somewhat, taking his ingredients as Cas explained. "Um… Gods, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to snap at you like that, I've just…" He sighed, rubbing a hand over his face, "It's been a long week. Thanks for all your help."

(uuuuhhh maybe have Tolly accidently try it when Cait's not looking?)
Cas gave him a bright smile "it's alright, I've dealt with way worse. I hope you're week goes better. I'll see you and Caitlin in history and English next week. And tell Tolly I said hi." He waved as Levi left, returning to organizing the store

(K, sounds good. How about when Cas, Cait, & Levi are leaving class Tolly meets up w/ them, drinks Cait's potion, and accidentally looks at Cas n falls in love w/ him)

"I will. And… I'll see you too. Have a nice week." Levi left the store with his ingredients, dropping them off with Cait. He was about to text Tolly and ask him to come over, but Cait demanded that he help her with whatever little potion she was making and he wasted most of the night brewing it.

(yes! I like it)
Cas sighed and cursed himself "good job Cas," he muttered, looking under the counter for his text book to start on homework while the shop was empty

(Great! Wanna skip to the class?)

While Levi helped Cait brew her potion, which had turned a lovely shade of pink, he started texting Tolly. They talked late into the night, mostly about the strange potion shop Levi had visited and the guy who worked inside. Levi was surprised by how into the discussion Tolly was.

(sure)
Cas had fallen asleep at the counter, his book next to his head and the lamp turned on, casting a soft glow throughout the shop. He jerked awake and cursed "damn….damn, damn, damn, damn, shit…I'm late…" He sprinted out with his book and bag, heading to his first class of the day, as always, looking like a deshevled mess

Levi was also running late, though he was much less concerned than Cas. He'd fallen asleep around 5 am when the potion was finally bottled and Cait allowed him to go to sleep. Tolly dropped by around 7, forcing him to wake up and get to class. Levi didn't know if he was grateful or pissed.

Cas made it to class before the bell rang and sat down at his seat near the middle of the class. He glanced around to see if he could find Levi, cait or Tolly. He sighed softly and put his head down in his arm, resting a bit before class began

Cait had arrived earlier than the boys- a blessing she was sure to exploit for favors later- and saved them seats a row behind Cas. Levi plopped into his seat and promptly began napping. Tolly laughed at him, reaching forward to tap Cas on the shoulder. "Hey! You're smart, right?"

He picked his head up and glanced over his shoulder "hm? Oh hey Tolly, uh I wouldn't call myself dumb, does that count?" He asked tiredly

Tolly shrugged. "It's good enough. Can you take notes for Levi? He's definitely sleeping through this class and I wanna make sure he's not missing out on anything."

He glanced back at Levi and shook his head with a laugh. "Can't you just give him your or Caite's notes when you reach your dorm?" He asked, "plus I don't think it takes a brain to take notes," he teased Tolly.

"First of all, it takes a brain to take good notes. Second of all, Cait's notes are written in shorthand- aka incomprehensible gibberish- and my notes ain't shit." Tolly smiled pleadingly at him. "C'mon. Levi'll be so grateful."

he sighed softly and rolled his eyes playfully "fine…by the way, shorthand is a great way to take notes." He laughed softly and faced fowards as the class began
