    Summary

    How many times had Qifrey turned away Olruggio’s concern? How many times had he lied to keep the promise they’d made? How many times had Qifrey had to look Olruggio in the eyes and deny his bleeding heart, to pretend like he didn’t want his Watchful Eye more than he wanted air, just to stay safe?

    It kept him alive. Far more importantly, it kept his promise to his radiant star. Qifrey had to keep telling himself that. It was the only way he could endure the ordeal of being fussed over, of being discovered and forgotten in cycles, of being loved by a man he’d taken everything from. The only way he could stand to dig his fingernails into his palm and pretend Olruggio’s self-sacrificing obsession was a one-sided ordeal.

    But what happened when that constant, crawling feeling of roots and gnarls in Qifrey’s skin no longer forced him to be patient?

    aka: qifrey is freed of his curse. he finally lets his roots grow toward his star.

    Coco... From now on, you will be a witch.

    As the title says, this is my interpretation of the events immediately following the first episode/chapter of Witch Hat Atelier.

    Summary

    Qifrey confesses, and Olruggio learns the truth yet again. The tree begins to sprout, but this time, the confrontation goes off script, leaving Qifrey so consumed with guilt that the tree retreats, if only for a moment.

    Or Qifrey accepts that he will die, Olruggio does not take that information well.

    Summary

    Familiar guilt gnaws at him, and he cannot help but be grateful for it, allowing himself just a second longer to wallow. Perhaps if he makes himself miserable enough before he must rise for the day he won't have to worry as much later, letting the pit in his stomach settle uncomfortably and do much of the heavy lifting for keeping a certain Silverwood at bay.

    Silverwood... that's right. The silverwood, it's-

    It's gone. He'd forgotten.
