• Socials: $lavandes on CashApp @yeuxdesorcellerie on IG / My account is private but you may ask to follow. I do not have other active social accounts on IG or other sites; please report any you see. :)
• Modifications: more than 10 but less than 20 tattoos of nature details, esoteric & mystic symbols, and a growing menagerie, mostly hand-poked by friends or myself
• Strength: the walking stick is for keeping my balance and not to imply frailty
• Dexterity: harpist, keyboardist, enthusiast of needlepoint crafts, daily yoga practitioner and weight lifter, however, will pause for you to hold the door
• Wisdom: early 90s millennial, raised rural northeasterner, divinatory dream-haver, public library and museums enthusiast, erudite but otherwise unassimilated
• Charisma: overtly feminine edge, hip swaying walk, playfully in charge with a bite that lingers, frequently complimented by strangers for smelling good

• Challenging and affectionate: If I’m putting pressure on your sore spots, it’s because I want you to reflex into the release. After any sustained tension, however, I spend my effort proportionately on aftercare and encouraging reflection. This is to be taken both literally and metaphorically.
• Won’t compromise my values, regardless of scene or setting: At the loss of some opportunities, with the gain of more significant ones, I have a lifetime of finding it impossible to behave outside of my moral beliefs and ethical principles. In or out of scene, discussions steering towards politics, social behavior, harm reduction, or supportive community practices will have my transparency. I do not engage in, or tolerate the ambience of, any hateful, exclusionary, or othering beliefs towards marginalized groups, or any veiled behavior of this nature. This does not stop for booking time.
• Strong presence: My daily dress ranges from cozy alt to polished romantic goth, but regardless of outfit, you’ll notice I have a habit of standing out against the crowd (I suspect it’s the large stick I carry). I behave with relaxed discretion and keep my manners in public— unless we are in circumstance pertaining to the preceding point.

My formative years were spent in New England textile mill towns, isolated mountains in Maine, and the less tourist-frequented parts of Rhode Island. I spent the rest of my growing-up completing my bachelor degrees in Boston living in punk houses and biking around the city from my job at the art museum to political organizing meetings to harm reduction programing shifts. I graduated magna cum laude with degrees in neuroscience and philosophy, as well as a strong desire to leave the northeast.

Despite my intents when I was younger to follow STEM, my heart keeps putting me on different paths. After several years in my intended field, I left to spend the rest of my 20s working in needle exchanges, learning the harp from scratch, living in a renovated schoolbus on the Olympic Peninsula, obtaining an incomplete c-spine injury, becoming well-versed in psychedelics, and being a frequent flyer on the greyhound routes across Montana, not in that order, and among many other activities and misadventures. I’ve lived in many places and developed a chronic habit of half-living in one city and half-living in another. An astrologer looking at my natal chart could attribute this to busy third house placements, but I attribute this to an inability to fit neatly into one place or another. My life exists most often in the liminal spaces of train stations and book pages.

Reflectively, I’m a collector of hobbies, studies, and projects, so as an artist, I identify as an esoteric first. If my spirit is so restless, on what seems to both be a cerebral and a literal level, then my intent must be to grow with it and find my meaning and education in that. My work is where I’m able to alchemize my interests into a functional practice. I don’t try to force myself to confine within strict doctrine or expectations anymore, and believe that giving something space to breathe often helps it grow deeper roots.

I love to play with the contrasting tones of my instinctual nurturing and empathic self. I easily slip into the strict, toxic female dominant archetype, with a love of emotional sadism and mockery. Teasing and denial (with or without chastity) is what I find to be energizing, while I’ll reach for restraints and impact play to slow down and build tension. Throughout, I engage various sensory techniques to build you up and steady you as appropriate.

I put emphasis on, and value the importance of, my aftercare practices, and will not rush through them. This may include smaller ritual practices at your comfort level (see my library post on this), gentle bodywork, and meditative technique. I shift into a strict nurturing role for this portion of our time to give you a steady grounding back in reality, I will not play mind games during aftercare.

I will never run our scene without preliminary communication about your needs, or without discussing safewords/cues. There is no impressing me if you don’t use your safeword in scene, just as there is no disappointing me if you use your safeword multiple times in a session. Your safeword use keeps the scene safe for both of us, so use it when you need to.

I do not maintain my archetype behavior out of scene or in communications unless discussed prior. I do not greet new bookings in archetype.
