fandomtownies | The Magic Box [Tuesday]

The weekend was still weighing a bit on Celia, much as she was pretending it wasn't. Combined with the experience of her alternate-self earlier this spring, and she was once again wrestling with newfound memories of a mother she had never really remembered.

And while it was much easier to just shove all of that away and pretend she didn't care, anyway, sometimes temptation was too strong to resist. And while she had never put any stock in certain branches of magic -- or 'magic,' really -- it did seem like nearly anything was possible, here.

So that was why Tuesday found her curling up at work with a book on the occult. No, of course she knew seances weren't real, and one couldn't really speak with the dead. But the dead did seem to have answers she wanted and...well. Reading wouldn't hurt anything. Particularly if she hid the book if anyone came in.
