Post Twenty Eight: The Worst Hogswatch Ever

 [The phone is knocked off the hook as Tiffany takes a step backwards from the sight. You can hear her voice and it is strained and more shaken then it normally would be]

I am a witch and I do not scare this easily...

I am a witch and I do not scare this easily....

[She seems to be trying to convince herself of this fact. Family feel free to notice that there is a rotting corpse under the tree. It is an old woman dressed as a witch. Tiffany is staring at it in horror. It's Granny Weatherwax.]

Yes.

[She nods.]

I'll help you, then.

[She almost says something about doing it herself but then....she realizes. She isn't a witch alone. Sophie is a witch too. Even if she is a strange witch and acts more like a wizard sometimes....She nods.]

....thank you.

Of course.

Did you have some place in mind?

.....

I'm not sure...

[She rubs her head.]

She wouldn't want to be buried anywhere other then Lancre ....but it isn't her....

We'll have to do our best to find a suitable place here, then.

[identity profile] the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com 2010-12-27 03:20 am (UTC)(link)
I suppose we will.

...the yard maybe?

[identity profile] eldest-hatter.livejournal.com 2010-12-27 03:29 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, that should be fine. We'll have to shovel the snow away as well...

[identity profile] the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com 2010-12-27 03:32 am (UTC)(link)
Yes. The ground will be rather hard as well.

[identity profile] eldest-hatter.livejournal.com 2010-12-27 03:39 am (UTC)(link)
I'll see if I can persuade it to soften up a bit.

[identity profile] the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com 2010-12-27 03:46 am (UTC)(link)
[She smiles at that.]

And I can probably get rid of the snow quickly.

[identity profile] eldest-hatter.livejournal.com 2010-12-27 03:48 am (UTC)(link)
Then it will be just fine.

Shall we get started?

[identity profile] the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com 2010-12-27 03:54 am (UTC)(link)
I suppose...it would be for the best.

[Spares another look over at Granny.]

....I'm glad Nanny isn't here to see this.

She was another witch from your world, then?

[identity profile] the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com 2010-12-27 04:02 am (UTC)(link)
Yes. Granny Weatherwax. She's....a friend of mine but she's also the closest thing we witches have to a leader. In an unofficial way of course.

[identity profile] eldest-hatter.livejournal.com 2010-12-27 04:37 am (UTC)(link)
I see.

I'm sure she is fine back home, though.

[identity profile] the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com 2010-12-27 11:01 pm (UTC)(link)
.....Yes.

I hope she is.
