Summoning Sunshine

[sunbaked_baker]

First, draw a pentagram on the floor in bread flour, and place at the star's corners:

a small hill of ground cinnamon;
a bloom from a rambler rose;
an oak leaf still wet with morning dew;
a small piece of raw amber;
and three drops of blood from a doe.

Calm your mind, and light a white candle in the star's center.

Lesgle summoning ritual:

1. Your oldest, tiredest, can't-bear-to-get-rid-of-it piece of clothing.
2. A spare mattress.*
3. A broken mirror.
4. A few empty bottles of wine.**
5. A tricolor cockade.

You don't really have to do anything, just sort of pile the stuff in a corner of one room, and within a week you'll have a new roommate/life partner. Within two weeks this will seem totally normal to you. Within three weeks you'll both be dating the same person.

I could make a joke about and then you all die but that goes without saying.

* If necessary substitute a sleeping bag, old couch, couch cushion, or old blanket. Alternatively, pile the summoning objects in your own bed, if that's the way you like to roll.
** Other alcoholic beverages can be substituted.

Darn, thinking of a ward against Amascut is easier than thinking of a way of summoning her.

hmm
Amascut:
A kitty ears headband painted gold
A very heavy duty spear (or some other sword-on-a-stick-like polearm)
A sickle
Two hearts from two monsters you have killed yourself

Fairy Fixit:
One of the back teeth of some critter. (The more exotic, the better)
Bracket fungus
A live moth
A piece of advanced technology
A magic wand

All that was necessary to get into Evil Chicken's lair was a raw whole chicken, plucked and placed in front of his altar. But really, all that is needed to summon Evil Chicken is doing falling into some routine while doing some sort of work or being bored with what you are doing.

Things not required but recommended to summon Autor are:

1. a blend of Darjeeling and Assaam teas
   
2. ink made from a seven-to-ten ratio of blue-to-black
   
3. a quill made from the feather of a swan which has been in the sea
   
4. a first edition copy of Price und Rabe
   
5. paper made from ten-year-old reeds

Pile the items on the piano, and Autor will come to yell at you for mistreating the instrument.

[sunbaked_baker]

Alternatively, if you are short all of these things, one can also summon an Autor by laughing aloud in a library.

[lazy_but_loyal]

To summon Pam:

1. a pair of Jimmy Choo heels
2. a Prada handbag
3. an Alexander McQueen corset
4. a platinum credit card
5. a tube of red lipstick

...It's kind of expensive to summon Pam.

For Enjolras, I can come up with a list of things -- something tricolor, a copy of The Social Contract, a cup of coffee, a pen, a sword or loaded gun -- but all you really have to do is stand in a café and say "Okay, but what does combating systemic social inequality mean, really?"

Or ask aloud what's so cool about this guy Feuilly.

[onceaviking]

Eric wants to know if a nice pair counts as one item or two?

[misslucyjane]

For Steve:

One firecracker
One hotdog from Nathan's famous
One copy of Orpheus's album
One box of Faber pencils
One baseball

Arrange in a circle. Recite a verse by Walt Whitman, and light the firecracker. Steve will appear before it pops.




Or, of course, just be Bucky Barnes..

[varadia]

For X:

1. A pinch of goldfish flakes
2. one fingerless glove
3. three drops of root beer
4. a light switch
5. something purple

Lay them in a neat line next to each other, then say 'man, I could use some help', and poof.

For Raven:

Just desperately wish for him to be somewhere not here. And mean it.

[hot_water]

X's list is hilarious.

[varadia]

They are very weird, I know.

But they are also significant symbols of her journey to being a person!

(Her journey to being a fully realized person was a weird one, too.)

[tlvop]

I am genuinely surprised at X! I was predicting tickets to a little league game.

:) /loves her (AND YOU)

[varadia]

I knew I forgot something!!!!

(Maybe a baseball cap. Maybe a purple baseball cap.)

[fluffiest_archadian]

For Yugo:

An orange lily.
A bird's feather.
A ring with a ruby in it.
Some spare upholstery that you've torn from a horrible, horrible sofa.
A delicious doughnut.


For Sherral, just be under his command and make sure your weapon/armour/uniform/behaviour/literally anything is ever so slightly below standard, and he will materialise. I mean, you thought he was on the other side of the city and also asleep, but apparently not.

[ceitfianna]

I'm not sure I can manage five for all of them but I'll get as many as I can.

Will: a branch from Sherwood Forest, a bottle of whiskey, some drops of blood, the sound of a group of friends laughing and someone in pain

Charles: scientific text about genetics, bottle of Scotch, someone in need of help, a tweed jacket and I don't know about the last one

Quentin: the sound of Toby in pain, a cup of coffee, a badge of Shadowed Hills, a mirror to represent his magic

William: someone coughing, a dime novel, plate of biscuits, drops of blood

Moist: fine quality paper, a loose diamond, an opportunity of some sort, a pastry from Uberwald

Jane: good writing paper, a book she hasn't read, a cup of tea, ink pot, letter from Tom Lefroy

Sameth: scent of Kait's perfume, a mechanical device he's never seen before, something made with the Charter

Demeter-don't summon Demeter, ask her for help politely

Tumnus: a pot of tea, a book about Narnia, a note from Lucy, a new scarf

Ivan: a comm call from his wife, a bottle of wine

Okay, I've done all I can think of, I'd love help with these as this is a great idea.

[bjornwilde]

Selina: Something valuable yet easy to pocket, milk, leather, music (but it has to have a nice beat), and I can't think of a fifth.

Tybalt: a pastry, Tody, a cat, Toby, and cream. Yes, I listed Toby twice, be happy it wasn't more.

Sam Wilson: Something playing Marvin Gaye, an omelette, someone in need, a feather, and a joke.

Quin: Someone in need, something worth credits, Imperial intel, and something alcoholic. Really, any one of those things would work on their own.

Andrea: A pirate themed romance novel, bullets or a gun, Georgia peach tea, BBQ, and a bow or arrow.

Ethan: Whiskey, a kiss, a riddle or mystery, a bowler, and a six shooter.

[runningred]

Jay - a well balanced throwing knife, a chance at a kiss, a damaged motorcycle part , the smell of gunpower on leather, one of Rae’s cinnamon buns.

David - place the following on a butsudan altar: a cup of cheap whiskey (the cheaper, the better), a blue fedora, earth from the Phuoc Tuy Province of Vietnam and a Gauloises cigarette.

Diaval - a disregarded plate of any food, a bottle of orange soda, possibly a comic book. But honestly, the food’s really all you need.

Olivier - Jasmine flowers, sunlight through stained glass, a well honed blade, fresh baklava, chocolate of any kind.

Minx - a gaming console, a bag of M&Ms, a bottle of diet soda, the latest Assassin's Creed and nowhere to have to be for the next 20 hours. Minx would be a terrible slob if she didn’t have work and modelling to worry about.

[chanter1944]

To summon Sariel Rager:

three drops of decent tea, preferably lavender (other varieties will also work, but lavender stands the best chance)
a view of the stars, ideally from space but planetside can work if needed
a generous handful of sand from a Saint Lucian beach
a Starfleet insignia in some tasteful/respectful form or other, though if you use somebody's communicator for this without asking beware, the spell may refuse to function, possibly in spectacular fashion i.e. by throwing a spike of accumulated energy into the nearest wall
either a small model spaceship or airplane or, if those representations of concept aren't available, a feather (tropical feathers are best for this, but any flying bird's feather is usable)

Assemble all movable objects inside your summoning circle. Face or look up at the starry view and mention her being needed. No candles required; on the contrary. They will nullify your spellwork if displayed or burned.

I've put way too much thought into this just now. XD
