Post Eight: Advertizing?

[England has given her an idea and so there is another sign set up outside the house with a sign that reads

Tiffany Aching: Witch
-Disputes settled
-Help with problems
-Midwifery
-General witching

Fresh Cheese for sale

 

Tiffany is sitting on the lawn with her pointed hat on as she reads a book. It appears to be a history text book and she's making notes in a notebook to the side.]

What kind of general witching?

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

Helping people mostly I suppose. I doubt I'll need to sit up with the dead since they come back to life here.

[lasersallover.livejournal.com]

But...why would you help people?

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

Because I am a witch.

[lasersallover.livejournal.com]

So you're doing it for money, right?

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

Money?

Witches don't get paid for their work.

[lasersallover.livejournal.com]

That makes you a terrible witch. Everyone knows that witches have magic shops and they sell potions and their services.

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

No. Witches don't sell anything. Besides we tend not to use magic when we can help it.

It's our duty to help people who need it. We never ask for payment. Though Nanny says there are ways of not asking....

[She shurgs] As it is, where I come from witches don't sell magic...or potions. That's all just nonsense.

[lasersallover.livejournal.com]

Don't use magic when you can't help it?!

[SHOCK]

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

Of course not.

Most problems can be solved with hard work and common sense. If there's no need to use magic, then we won't.

Only wizards use magic for trivial things...and from what I've heard about them....they have "interesting" lives.

[lasersallover.livejournal.com]

I refuse to believe that I'm hearing.

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

What do you mean?

[lasersallover.livejournal.com]

It's obvious I'm going to have to show everyone how to be a real witch.

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

[She laughs, oh you really are Annagramma, aren't you]

Of course you will.

[lasersallover.livejournal.com]

I'll do it for sure.

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

[Nodds]

I'm sure you will. Now, since you're not here for my help as a witch, would you like to buy some cheese?

[lasersallover.livejournal.com]

Nope. Cheese gives me indigestion.

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry to hear that.

I just made it this morning.

[lasersallover.livejournal.com]

You should have made cake or something.

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

I like making cheese.

[lasersallover.livejournal.com]

You like giving people indigestion?

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

No, but I'm a cheesemaker, so I enjoy making cheese.

[lasersallover.livejournal.com]

...you enjoy giving indigestion.

You're a pretty evil witch. I see why everything is free now.

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

Not everyone gets indigestion from cheese you know.
