Answer:
The magician dashed off stage. He had been ridiculed for his fast-sprouting carnations, yet again. No more flower tricks at these open mics, he begrudged, they don’t care for nature fast or slow. Not to mention, being booed for your favorite spell sucked bad enough, without it being pro bono. It was that night, feeling upside-down and fuming with rage and pity, that he fell headfirst in love.
Unaware of how the show had failed, fixated on her goal of getting a slot sometime soon, the sorceress entered the venue hyperventilating. She hoped that working one night there would lead to more. What she feared, however, was that the manager would only look at her as a face to post at the front end of a line selling tickets to hoodlums. It was late in the night, the middle of her career, she was desperate. And her life too precious to wait around.
Her days as an independent witch for birthdays and holidays had ended. Black was her bygone past, gray was the foreseeable future. There is some money to be had as a freelance artist, emphasis on the “free,” but mostly her afternoons had turned into a perpetual toll: when she wasn’t turning tricks into entertainment or pennies into diamonds for other people, she spent her leisure hours sulking. Nevertheless, the sorceress needed a new number, one to get out of her own head. Not even magic, she knew, can turn a stony heart around.
