The Worst Witch is a popular children's book series written by Jill Murphy. It follows the story of a young witch named Mildred Hubble who attends Miss Cackle's Academy for Witches. However, Mildred is known for her clumsiness and constantly finds herself in trouble. Throughout the series, Mildred's lack of confidence and her tendency to make mistakes make her the worst witch in her class. She struggles with basic spells and potions, often causing chaos and unintended consequences. Despite her efforts, she is always overshadowed by her classmates and her nemesis, Ethel Hallow.
Her aura is mostly internalized, so she has to activate everything by touch. Therefore, most of her healing is done via various forms of affection; handholding, forehead touches, hugs, kisses. Her aura flows kind of like osmosis, so the more of you she’s touching the faster it goes. (fun fact her tears can also help heal)
To some degree she can manipulate air to float or soften landings, and she also has extremely good natural balance - both common passive traits found in air elementals. It s easy to play the compare this to that game though and while Antigama inspire plenty of comparison, they are absolutely a band that can stand on its own two feet, as they prove over and over.
Despite her efforts, she is always overshadowed by her classmates and her nemesis, Ethel Hallow. Mildred's adventures at Miss Cackle's Academy are both humorous and heartwarming. She forms close friendships with her roommates, Maud and Enid, and together they navigate the challenges of learning magic.
Detox
(Chorus)
It's too late for me to survive!
It's too late for me to survive!
How can I live when I can't breathe?
Because you step into my threshold, get code red
You said you were my friend why don't you wait for me?
You left me for dead, why? I could not see
The blood runs through my veins withr rapid frequency
How could my enemy be all that I'm a need
Well you got me hooked what do you do with me?
Because it's too late, too late, too late for me!
Too late, too late for me to survive!
How can I live when I can't breathe?
Because you step into my threshold, get code red
You said you were my friend why don't you wait for me?
You left me for dead, why? I could not see
The blood runs through my veins withr rapid frequency
How could my enemy be all that I'm a need
Well you got me hooked what do you do with me?
Because it's too late, too late, too late for me!
Pressure weighing on me
Demons in my head need to be set free
Because the pressure dropper makes you wanna slip,
Another page inside my noyebook gets ripped
The plot I once write has apparently been flipped
I throught I had a grip but apparently it slippeed
I lost focus that I gain through a scope lost the last of my hope
In a knot and a rope
It's a straight case result, of a need for danger
First comes the detox and then comes the anger
Too late, too late for me to survive!
