Post Twenty Six: .....Time Skip

[witchofthechalk]

 [Forward dated to Friday morning. Did you enjoy your 24 hours of droned Tiffany household? I'm guessing no. Anyway while you were sleeping all the photo's changed and you'll notice your daughter looks a bit older. And when she wakes up this morning she notices she's back in this place. Not family feel free to hear her talking to herself in her room.]

-again. I can't believe they would just drag me back here.

[A pause]

Actually I can believe that. In fact I'm surprised they didn't drag me off before this. At least everyone at home should be fine without me for a while....though if time doesn't pause I hope someone remembers that Mrs.Lawson needs her bandages changed....

[And after a moment there is a teenage witch exploring the house to see how long she was gone. Feel free to have been listening at her door the entire time.]

[Phone call. Tiffany sounds a bit older now to anyone who knew her.]

Well that was a nice three years away from this place. Though I've been told it's only been a day here....time certainly works oddly in this place.

No matter. For those who didn't know me, I am Tiffany Aching, witch of the Chalk. I'm not sure if anyone knows what a witch from the Discworld does but I thought I'd offer my services up anyway since I'm going to have a great deal more free time here.

[Do you like being tackled into a hug by your adorable little brother, Tiffany? I hope you do, since it's happening now.]

[Sophie had come to check on Tiffany to see if she were still droned or not. She's guessing by the tone of voice that she is not.

She knocks on the door.]

Tiffany?

[..aw. Hugs back.]

Hello France. I wasn't gone for too long I hope.

[victimofgod.livejournal.com]

A witch?

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

Sophie?

[Goes over to open the door.]

[eldest-hatter.livejournal.com]

[Being as watchful as she is, she notices right away that Tiffany looks older.]

Tiffany? What happened?

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

Yes.

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

[Smiles at that.]

Well, I went home. For three years as it turns out.

[seniorfilia.livejournal.com]

It was a whole day! Ah, and you got taller... That's horrible...

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

A day?

[Oh well...that is strange.]

And I'm taller because I'm three years older. I'm sixteen now.

[eldest-hatter.livejournal.com]

Three-?

[She's a bit startled at the idea, since it has only been a day, but she knows that it has happened to others there, before.]

How old does that make you now? Sixteen?

[seniorfilia.livejournal.com]

I forget how quickly humans grow sometimes... [Pats her arm.]

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

Yes that's right.

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

[Smiles at that.]

Yes I suppose three years wouldn't be much too you, would it?

[victimofgod.livejournal.com]

In what way?

[eldest-hatter.livejournal.com]

[She sighs.]

Arthur isn't going to like this one bit.

[seniorfilia.livejournal.com]

Oui, it usually takes a century for me to grow noticeably, I think. Three is nothing!

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

In the way that I am a witch. It is as much my profession as it is who I am.

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

[....Crivens]

Oh dear....that's right. He was always going on about people growing up....

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

Mmm, well I may be a witch but I still age the same as anyone else I'm afraid.

[victimofgod.livejournal.com]

We're all from different worlds here. It means different things. What is a witch where you are from?

[seniorfilia.livejournal.com]

In just a few decades, you'll probably be dead. [Cheerful.] Anyway, what happened while you were home?

[eldest-hatter.livejournal.com]

He may just pretend you're still the same age.

I hope that will be the worst of it.

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

I see. I apologize, I'm still a little used to being in my own world.

At home I look after people who are sick, I help solve problems for people who need solutions, I help those in need and I keep things balanced as best as I am able.

....This is going to be quite interesting, I can tell.
