⚢꩜ Big Witch on Campus

(assuming university students, but could probably be moved to some other group)

Craig has known something was wrong for a while, but it's only recently he started putting the clues together and realised they were all connected. A few strange occurrences around the college campus, that different groups of people explain as "magic", "UFOs", or "urban myths". The fact that every girl he's dated in the last year has dumped him when she realises she's not into guys. One dorm, one faculty, and one sports team getting virtually all the funding to make their students'/members' lives more pleasant.

Then he overhears someone talking on the phone. Katrina mentions magic, complaining to her mysterious distant mentor that "she" is proving spectacularly resistant to spirit control. And Craig suddenly realises that Katrina is in the right dorm/class/team to get the benefits of all the funding discrepancies. There's a *witch* on campus, manipulating people for her own nefarious ends, and she's using some kind of spell to turn the girls she likes gay. That would be fine, maybe, if her preference in girls wasn't so close to Craig's. So he resolves that he's going to find proof, and reveal this witch once and for all.

He starts out by working his way into her circle of friends. That isn't too hard; she likes to have as diverse a group of friends as possible, for some reason. But things get a little more complex when Craig finds himself getting involved with her roommate, Ash, who he quickly realises is the only one able to resist Katrina's spirit control. Hijinks and chaos ensues, as he learns more. If this was a longer series, there'd probably be some 'odd couple' antics with the introverted yet awesome super-science geek Ash and exotically seductive witch Kat. When Craig gets caught snooping through her stuff and admits he knows she can do magic, she assumes he's "interested", and Craig finds himself turned into his ideal woman for a single night of flustered fun with hormones he can't control. But he's still finding it hard to get to the truth. He also discovers that talking about the strange occurrences on campus, or magic in general, is somehow a turn-on for Ash. Maybe that's a consequence of the 'spirit control', even if it didn't work completely. He's getting more and more invested in stopping the "evil witch", now he's got someone he really cares about to save from her magic.

The eventual twist is when he finds Ash's porn stash; both pics/videos of hot guys and girls, and her collection of rather explicit stories garnered from the internet.

Seems she's quite a fan of erotic mind control. Ash is bi, and she's had a huge crush on Katrina for as long as they've known each other, but is too embarrassed to say anything. So Katrina's been using her spirit control spell to make her roommate fall for her, and is completely unaware that it's unnecessary. Ash, the super-geek, couldn't bring herself to admit her attraction, so she did the only logical thing: she tried to get Kat to develop feelings for her, hoping the other girl would make the first move. She created a computer virus to generate subliminal messages, and put it in one of Kat's college projects. She didn't expect that Kat was helping a classmate with her homework, and that rather than sitting on Kat's computer slowly warping her mind, the subliminal program has ended up on all the computers in the library.

So Kat and Ash are both trying to MC each other to fall for them, not realising that their efforts are redundant. It was actually Ash's virus that's responsible for half the girls on campus turning gay. Maybe other girls who look like her were more likely to get the effects early on, because Kat associates with them a little more. But really, Craig's assumption that it only affects the girls he likes is more due to confirmation bias than anything else. And yes, Kat has been fighting demons on campus, hence all the magic/faerie/UFO sightings. She's an immortal witch, recruited by the college governors to seal a portal to hell in the basement of the old Supernatural Sciences building (which became a normal science department a hundred years ago, but was never properly cleansed). A witch isn't allowed to receive payment for magic, which makes freelancing a bit troublesome, but the college council is quite happy to distribute some extra funding in a way that makes her life more comfortable; the loophole in the rules.

Once he finally reveals both the girls' secrets to each other, it's a happy ending. Katrina offers him a reward, and now it seems like the whole world is open to him...
