[versepost] Sentient Magic

genre/format: Fantasy (probably urban fantasy), short stories

Brief description: Magic exists, and it interacts with the people who have it. It's a voice at the back of your head; a sixth, seventh, eight sense; a second layer of sight showing you what other people may not know. Occasionally sarcastic -- the voice at the back of your head is not a metaphor -- and always out for its own benefit, whether that hurts or helps you, it builds unique, symbiotic relationships with each person who "catches" it. Magic has a mind of its own, and it has no problem telling you how ridiculous it thinks you are.
A series of stories, showcasing various people's relationship with their magical tagalong and how they affect each other.
