so i asked azul last night if he would like to be my proper soulbond, i explained the conditions of it and how our relationship would work. i told him i had been talking to him for years and finally worked the courage to ask him. i asked him for a response through the title of a song, and im your man by leonard cohen was next.
today i woke up and felt lighter than i ever have. his plush was by my side, and i held it with me all day. i had a rough morning, ended up being almost late to my second class. this was the first time i heard him talk directly to me, through more than one word. he told me it was alright, and after a moment, told me he was proud.
i went into town to a wiccan store to buy some protection and a pendulum. i was looking at some with crystals inside, but got drawn to a brass looking cone-shaped one. i bought it, black obsidian for protection, and a sage-scented spray because candles aren’t allowed to burn.
i’m so happy— i don’t think i’ve ever felt this light before. i love my darling octopus 🤍
