Chapter 5: I think I met an Idiot

Kate groaned. The semester was barely going and already she was having some stress over the work she had to do. She had showered after class to destress and now was trying to get some homework done while she dried off. The towel had slipped down off her breasts and was now just wrapped around her waist as she scribbled down her various formulas and equations on her notebooks. She barely even notices In-ka come home through the concentration.
“Hey there Kate” In-ka said dropping her backpack off, “how was your day?”

“Math can suck” Kate groaned glancing over at her girlfriend, “You?”

“Something interesting did happen” In-ka said nodding, “I think I met an idiot.”

Kate raised an eyebrow in way of asking the obvious question and waited for In-ka to continue.

“Curvy tanuki girl, names Michelle. She’s a witch, er, well she says she’s a witch anyway. Fingered me for a witch too.”

Kate was suddenly more interested and turned her swivel chair to face In-ka more directly, “Like us? It makes sense that Jasmin’s little ‘coven’, for lack of a better word, isn’t the only one. What makes her an idiot?”

In-ka leaned on the door frame, “She’s a ‘witch’ in the same way the emo kids with their black eyeliner are ‘vampires’”

Kate rolled her eyes, “So a dork who got a bit too far into the aesthetic and started deluding herself into thinking she’s real? Hardly interesting.”

“That’s what I thought too. She seems to have started her own little ‘coven’ of other ‘witches’ called, and get this: Mystic Wives Coven”

Kate snorted, “This a coven or a sex cult? Some charismatic dude got her believing this stuff so she and her friends will be his ‘wives’?”

“Well, you went dark fast” In-ka said, “I might think that too if she didn’t make my gaydar go off like a siren.”

“Charismatic woman? Not as common as far as cult leaders go, but if she is some deluded cult member she may need help.”

“True, but I don’t think so. Probably just some fangirl of the concept that got a bit too into it and dragged her friends along.”

“So how is she interesting?” Kate leaned back crossing her arms under her breasts. “You wouldn’t be bringing her up if it didn’t matter.”

“Well firstly she ‘knows’ I’m a witch, I don’t think she knows I can ACTUALLY do magic, but she is unlikely to just go away so that’s one” In-ka said holding up a finger, then popped up a second as she continued. “As for point two, I cast multiple scanning spells on her, I don’t think she even noticed I did it.”

“Not surprising for a wannabe”

In-ka nodded, “What WAS surprising is what I got back….” In-ka trailed off with a grin.

“Oh, come on, don’t tease me, what did you see?”

“Oh, I’m a tease? Says the bombshell doing her homework naked.”

Kate shrugged, “Want me to cover up?”

“Oh god no” In-ka smirked and make a performative motion to looking Kate up and down. She didn’t need to of course, her ‘sight’ wasn’t based on the direction her eyes were pointing, but Kate still felt a grin spreading at the exaggerated leering In-ka did, before getting back to the topic at hand, “She’s got power, this tanuki girl. Not a lot, but she does have the potential to do this for real, like you and me”

“Well, that is interesting. The wannabe might actually be. Are you planning on recruiting her? having your own apprentice now that you’ve basically graduated from Jasmin’s teachings?”
“Not sure yet, but maybe. And she’d be OUR apprentice, not just mine, if we decide to read her into this stuff for real”

“Does her being curvy and gay help in your calculations?”

In-ka stuck out her tongue, “No perving on the potential student…. yet… though speaking of perving.”

Kate smiled as In-ka came over to her and straddled her in the chair. Kate Gasped feeling hands grip hard onto her breasts, and murred happily as In-ka’s lips met her own.

Elsewhere Michelle was happily typing away at her computer, “I already met one here at college” She send the I’m off to her coven.

“What already?” Lucy responded immediately. Lucy was a short chubby squirrel girl. She never could put down the Cheetos, but she also was something of a social outcast which made her perfect for Michelle to recruit to her coven. Lucy wasn’t the most attractive person that Michelle had ever met, and she unfortunately was more interested in guys, at least at first. Michelle had worked pretty hard on her till she got the girl to the point that she’d let Michelle fuck her, er, ‘perform a ritual of intimacy, that would enhance their mutual mystic flow’ or something. Michelle couldn’t remember exactly what she said, but ever since then Lucy had been pretty loyal as a follower, and occasional booty call.

“Yep. She’s a wolf, and cute too.” Michell typed back, “weird eyes, dark fur, and I think she dyes it, there were patterns I could see around the edges of her uniform.”

“She’s cute?” Lucy typed back.

Michelle could practically feel the anxiety coming out of the page, she had to respond fast, “Just an objective observation of course. I would never fool around outside of the Mystic Wives Coven.”

Lucy didn’t typed back right away, but another member, Erin, did. “So, you’ll offer her a spot then hit on her relentlessly then?”

“NO. nothing so crass. I do intend to meet her, see what she’s like and then maybe let her join, if she can prove herself” Michelle typed back.

“Right…” Erin typed back, even adding the ellipses dripping with implication.

Michelle sometimes didn’t like Erin. She was never willing to be a proper subordinate to the coven leader, Michelle herself of course, and always had questions and back talk. To make it even WORSE Erin flatly refused to swear off men, which was normally one of Michelle’s requirements to join her coven, and Michelle even suspected that the girl had a … a… boyfriend on the side, as gross as that thought was.

Michelle only put up with her because she was a fox in both the literal and figurative sense. Michelle put a lot of work into her appearance and Erin clearly did too, the other members not so much. Unfortunately, the type of girl who wanted to join up with the all-girls coven usually weren’t the socially popular conventionally attractive type. That was what made Erin so bloody special to Michelle. Michelle hated the idea of sharing such an attractive girl with MEN, but she had little choice or Erin would leave. On top of that at least one of the other two girls, Rebecca, and Nancy would probably quit if Erin did, and then Michelle would only have the tubby Lucy under her sway.

Though then again if In-ka did join, maybe that could change things. In-ka was almost as hot as Erin. Would be just as hot if she wasn’t so short for a wolf. Michelle prayed that she was gay, or at least bi and willing to commit to women only. Michelle might not have to put up with Erin so much if she could add one or two more that didn’t just join through her.
“So, what are you planning” A messaged beeped and appeared from one of the girls.

“I got a meeting set up with her in the park. I’ll take her on a bit of a ‘nature walk’ see if I can get her to embrace her oneness with the forest” Michelle typed what was a bit of spiritual code for, ‘naked walk on the forest’, then continued, “I’ll let you know how it goes. With pictures if possible.”

Michelle smiled seeing the emojis of blushing faces pop up and closed her laptop screen to prepare. This just HAD to go well with In-ka. It just had to.
