About Magic
Spellwork, enchantments, and the impossible made systematic — whether the canon is already magical or the writer is introducing magic where none existed. Covers everything from intricate original magic systems to a single inexplicable curse driving the plot.
Magic is fanfiction's most flexible tool: it can externalize emotion, literalize metaphor, and give any pairing a curse that can only be broken one obvious way.
Common scenarios: A witch's familiar turning out to be a transformed human, or two characters bound by a spell that forces honesty between them.
