Post Sixteen: I hate this place

[witchofthechalk]

[Tiifany Aching is a witch. She knows she shouldn't let her emotions control her. But it's hard not to as she sits in the park looking down at the Feegle who seems to think he's a dog now. She's already tried yelling at him and now is just sitting there quietly.

She's in a bit of a shock and will sit like this for a long time. A very long time. Family you may have to come looking for her.]

[She's staring at the ground and looks up blinking quickly and wiping an eye. She was not crying before...really]

Ah...England I'm sorry....I must have lot track of time...

[is-an-island.livejournal.com]

... Why are you crying?

Was it a boy? I'll give him a good talking to if it was somebody who made you cry.

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

[She blinks again]

I wasn't I...

What? It wasn't a boy.

[She sighs and folds her arms]

....It's Rob....They droned him.

[is-an-island.livejournal.com]

... Is Rob a boy?

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

He's a feegle. One of the ones from home.

[is-an-island.livejournal.com]

... Oh.

I'm sorry to hear that.

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

[She nods with a sigh]

[is-an-island.livejournal.com]

... He might return.

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

....he might.

[is-an-island.livejournal.com]

[awkward embrace

with cursory pat-pats on the back aww yeah so smooth]

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

[Awkward hugs are Englands speciality so he gets a hug back.]

[is-an-island.livejournal.com]

... You can have your favourite dessert tonight.

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

[She smiles a bit]

....thank you.

[is-an-island.livejournal.com]

Spinach pie is your favourite, right?

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

I like cheese better.

[is-an-island.livejournal.com]

Spinach is a so much more consolatory food.

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

Is it? Why?

[is-an-island.livejournal.com]

More green.

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

And green represents what?

[is-an-island.livejournal.com]

It's just a good colour.

You can have some cheese tomorrow if you'd like.

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

I need to make some more anyway.

[is-an-island.livejournal.com]

... We can just stay home together.

I'd call you in for school.

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

Really?

[Glances over surprised.]

[is-an-island.livejournal.com]

Only for one day.

... Must be hard for you.

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

[It takes her a moment to realize what he's saying and that might show more then anything she's not doing as well as she's pretending to. Her thoughts are all messed up]

....it's just hard to see him like that...

[There's a pause]

I'd like that. Staying home I mean.
