whenever I'm around my friend, or am talking on the phone with her, and I cast a spell, it always seems to work better than when I cast one on my own. Today, for example, I was talking to her on the phone because of bad weather. I decided to cast the "To Weaken a Storm" spell. I cast it while still on the phone with her and it worked better than it probably would have if I had cast it on my own. Am I unknowningly stealing my friend's energy? And if I am, is this a good or a bad thing?
