Ravensgrove Academy is trying to rid the school of witches. So when star student Gwen is caught doing magic by the principal's rebellious son, she's sure she'll be expelled. Instead, he offers her a deal—pretend to date him, and he won’t tell anyone she's a witch

AMAZING!!!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!

Annie, a black cat with golden eyes and a sparkly blue collar, is laying on a Christmas tree skirt with her paws tucked under her. The bottom of the lit tree is visible and red and green bulbs hang over her

Christmas tree is up which means it’s time for Annie to remind everyone that she’s a gift 🎁

A sleeping black cat rolled into a ball with all her legs crossed. She looks very cozy!

Goodnight from the sleepiest girl around 💤

A lake and the sun are visible through trees with colorful autumn leaves in golden hour light

Golden light through the autumn leaves on a path through the forest

Golden autumnal glow on my afternoon walk ✨

Running to Florence+The Machine is always amazing, but listening to The Old Religion and running as fast as I can through the fall leaves while Florence tells me I can’t outrun myself just hits different

Annie, a black cat is sitting on the stairs in a red knit sweater. She’s looking up at the camera with big round eyes

Elphie, a black cat, is lying on a blanket wearing a black knit sweater. She’s avoiding looking at the camera and appears grumpy

Another year, another attempt at putting my cats in sweaters

If anyone needs me this morning, I'll be over here crying and listening to Sympathy Magic

And ending the album by saying she’s married to the hustle? The crowd is her king…

I don’t know what they put in the air at Home Goods, but every time I go in there it’s like I black out, my inner basic white girl takes over, and I come to in the parking lot with a bag full of fall decorations

Elphie, a black cat with a green collar, is lying on her side in the sun on a couch in the sun. She has a pile of toys next to her and has her head tipped back happily

Just a sunshine girl with her toys ☀️

I'm rewatching the vampire diaries again and I know there are a lot of farfetched things in this show, but honestly the only one that truly bothers me every time is how they immediately recognize people they haven't seen in 100+ years

they're SO cute and I'm obsessed with how similar their expressions are in this pic!

A round yellow flower with thin petals and a black center growing among some greenery

Stopped to take a picture of this pretty flower, 30 seconds later a bee flew into my hair. Balance, I guess?

Tell me your pet's name with a GIF.

This is one of my cats! The other cat is Annie because she was a foster fail and when I was fostering her, the shelter named her Ant. I didn't like that and called her Annie, and by the time I adopted her she already answered to it ❤️

It’s so convenient!!! Except I’m way more nervous now about putting the wrong agent name

Annie, a small black cat, is lying on her side on a multicolored rug. Her paws are tucked close to her chest and she’s looking at the camera with wide eyes

a golden retriever puppy on a bright pink rope leash prances through some tall grass. he’s wearing a brightly patterned bandana around his neck and is carrying a miniature six-stripe pride flag in his mouth. his front right paw is raised mid-stride, like he’s ready to hop into a pride parade at any second.

This is Bodie. He’s here to celebrate the start of Pride Month. Been working on this pose for weeks. 14/10 the parade starts right behind him 🌈🐾 (IG: hellobodie)

Two hanging spider plants in white pots, one has the pride progress flag sticking out of it

Happy first day of Pride!! 🌈🌈🌈
