Dear YW fandom, cousins or otherwise,

If you were to have a stash of ready-made spells, how would you choose to go about storing them?

Knit/crochet it into your outerwear? (Imagine tying the spell function into the unraveling on an item…)
Removable tattoos?
Charms – bracelets, keyrings, etc?
Other jewellery?

EDITED TO ADD: Are they phone apps for this?

I’m thinking keyring – it’s the only thing I’m guaranteed to have on at all times.

I’d do it as jewelry or maybe a stim toy, but that’s me.

There have
got to be apps on the WizPod. I’d probably keep them on a keyring,
though,                       

Speaking as someone who constantly “misplaces” her keys…  pretty cool how we’re all going for things that we keep with us the most, or are second nature to keep with you.

I guess it’s also great to have something to potentially fiddle with when you’re waiting for the bus, or something?

Hmm, I would go for nail art as a way to keep spells “handy”, where clear varnish can be used in place of colors as a workplace may dictate.

I’m just not sure what else I would be guaranteed to always have on me, would be a good form factor, and wouldn’t just be my manual. My EDC is really minimal.

I am not the kind of person to get a tattoo, but I think that being a wizard would make me amenable to spell tattoos.

Is it bad form to suggest writing on skin with non-toxic ink? Ballpoint could do in a pinch, but that assumes there’s access to a writing utensil.

It wouldn’t stick around, I fear. You can do whatever you want with your skin, though, and I definitely spent a number of classes in middle school drawing on my own arm.

What about something custom made with a 3D printer? A charm to clip on your belt loop or something? Or spells woven into a shawl for people who like to do the dress-type thing?

I would totally do spell tattoos, or store them in all my keys to the astronomy building, because I have like 10, at least until I graduate. Maybe a combo of both.

Probably a necklace/lanyard with charms on it, since that’s how I currently wear my student ID card.
