The Writing Process

I have always wanted to write something about witches after I watched Chilling Adventures of Sabrina. I vaguely remembered this prompt back when I was claiming my prompt for Will of the Stars (2018) so when the 2019 round opened, I quickly came for this prompt. I feel a bit sorry for the prompter because I turned their idea into this monstrosity but they haven’t reached out to me yet so I’m still hoping they aren’t that disappointed.

Despite being inspired from Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, it has absolutely no relation to it at all aside from the fact that it’s all about witches and I incorporated the popular witch trio element into this fic. It is completely something original, especially with my trademark of putting stars and constellations into the lore.

The whole fic has the touch of darkness that you can hear in bury a friend by Billie Eilish.

Also, here is a playlist of all the songs I listened to while writing this.

I developed the plot around November of 2018 but I never got around to really writing it seriously until March because school has been hectic and I’m just graduating from senior highschool. The plot is actually really bland at first. Chanyeol was supposed to only forget Baekhyun, gets rescued from Sungyeol and he is trained until Sungyeol rises. All the ideas from Rena pretending to be his girlfriend, the lore, the little twists throughout with the witch hunters, Chanyeol’s mom and Baekhyun’s ultimate death were not developed until May, a week before I turned the fic in. I’m the master of working under pressure lol.

I had so many people beta read this thing. I’m so grateful especially to Ate Mimi and Ate Lan for being patient with me haha.

Original title of this fic was supposed to be House of Draco but it’s too formal ahahaha.

I’m so proud of this work.

Witch Culture

They worship the stars.

The Roselake Coven collectively lives in a base hidden from human sight called the Roselake Fortress.

The Roselake Institution of Obscure Magic and Cosmic Witchcraft stands in front of the fortress.

Witches all have the standard ability to control magic, but they can also develop secondary abilities.

The witches live an egalitarian society where no matter what you are as long as you are against the darkness and you are with the stars, you are as equal as anybody else.

Technology is banned because it is useless anyway in a place brimming with magic.

Fashion includes anything black.

Witches love jewelry of any kind.

Dark, dramatic make-up is a staple.

Powers

The witches in this fic all have powers inspired from Polaris of the Gifted.

“All of a sudden, Chanyeol brings his arms sharply down in front of his chest, hands curled into fists. A ring of beautiful blue fire bursts out from within his body, setting the people in black on fire. Their shrieks echo into the night as they try to collect their wits and extinguish the flames, which Chanyeol takes as his cue to run the fuck out of there.”

Chanyeol using his powers in this scene kinda looks like this:

The Houses

This is only a list of all the mentioned houses throughout the fic. It doesn’t mean that these are the only ones that exist. There are actually more.

House Draco, the Dragon - blessed with the ability to control the Abysmal Fires and high aptitude for Offensive Magic

House Aquila, the Eagle - blessed with strong affinity for magic of any kind and the ability to effectively fight off the darkness

House Vulpecula, the Fox - blessed with cunningness and high aptitude for Influential Magic

House Cassiopeia, the Queen - blessed with natural born leadership and high aptitude for Affliction Magic

House Orion, the Hunter - blessed with sensitivity to magic and has sharp senses

House Corvus, the Crow - blessed with high aptitude for Dark Magic

House Leo, the Lion - blessed with the natural ability to heighten physical strength and have high capability in tolerating various kinds of magic

House Pyxis, the Compass - blessed with high aptitude in teleportation of any kind

House Circinus, the Dividing Compass - blessed with the natural ability to locate any person, place or object obscured from sight

Colors of the magical energy harnessed by witches depends on the house that they belong in, although that still depends. For example, a witch might have blue magical energy, hinting their House Draco bloodline, but the witch might be absorbed in other houses because of circumstances.

The Characters

This is Chanyeol, an ascendant of House Draco. He grew up as a mortal, which is why it was hard for him to adjust with witch life, especially after all the trouble he had to go through before becoming an official witch. He always felt lost and confused, but he did his best especially with Baekhyun guiding him so he became more powerful and capable through will and determination.

Here is Baekhyun of House Aquila, a prodigy among the youth in the coven. He's selfless and prioritizes the safety of the ones he love. He understands the principle of sacrifices and will choose the shortest end of the stick. He's charismatic yet cute at the same time.

The Oh Family featuring Krystal from f(x) with Sehun and Nayoung from Pristin, the only living ascendants of House Vulpecula in the Roselake Coven. They have been excommunicated from the Roselake Coven simply because they are directly related to Sungyeol. Despite this, they wholeheartedly helped Chanyeol, showing their loyalty to family as long as they are in the right.

Kahi as the High Priestess with Kyulkyung, Rena and Roa as the Pride Sisters, ascendants of House Cassiopeia. They appear cruel and antagonistic, but that is only because they are fierce and strict when it comes to the safety of the coven.

ITZY as Baekhyun's half-sisters, ascendants of House Aquila. Even if Baekhyun feels a bit distant from them because they aren’t blood-related and he constantly has the need to take up the responsibility of keeping witches safe from their upcoming doom, they look up to him as an admirable older brother.

Kai of House Corvus and Kyungsoo from House Orion a.k.a fluffy boyfriends who are close friends with Baekhyun. Kyungsoo is quite bubbly, naive and maybe a bit airheaded at times, but he is smart and very powerful. Jongin is the exact opposite of him and because of their match, they come in a set.

The Roselake Institution of Obscure Magic and Cosmic Witchcraft Council Leader Yixing of House Leo with council members Jongdae of House Pyxis and Minseok of House Circinus. They are always busy because aside from keeping the student witches in check, they have to cooperate with the higher authorities to keep the peace.

These are star-crossed lovers Witch Sehun and Witch Hunter Junmyeon. The witch hunters in the fic were dormant and had not been trained to be one only making them legacies rather than actual hunters, but the demons manipulated them in order to capture the witches.

So far, that is all. If you have any more questions, feel free to hit me up on Twitter or shoot me an ask here!

Baekhyun shakes, silently letting tears fall as he stares at the words laid out in front of him, once subjects of his passion yet are now incomprehensible and muddled up.

Chanyeol senses.

Even in silence, Chanyeol can sense everything internally happening to Baekhyun.

Quietly scooting close from behind, he wraps his arms around his beloved. Baekhyun immediately feels himself calming down, the turmoil within him unraveling.

"It's going to be alright," Chanyeol whispers in his ear, kissing his neck to soothe him.

“Everything is always too much these days,“ Baekhyun sobs quietly clenching his fists. “I feel like such a mess, I don’t know what to do with myself.”

He doesn’t know, but Chanyeol knows.

Without saying anything, Chanyeol pulls him up.

“What are you-“

Baekhyun yelps when Chanyeol lays on the bed and pulls him against him, making him topple over on his chest and lay there.

“Rest with me,“ Chanyeol says, embracing Baekhyun against his heat and soothing him even more by weaving his fingers through his hair and rubbing his back so he could release the stress in his body.

“But I still have-“

Chanyeol kisses him, and that’s enough for Baekhyun to shut his mouth.

“In the morning, when your mind is cleared from worries and is comforted with thoughts of me, then you can go back to doing those things. I can’t have you crying over paperworks. Only cry with happiness because of how amazing of a boyfriend I am.“

Baekhyun chuckles.

“You’re arrogant.“

“Yet you love me.“

Baekhyun hums appreciatively as he purrs, almost cat-like, already feeling himself relax.

“I do. Crazily so.“

Chanyeol just knows how to make everything better.
