Before Dinner✨

I think what granny feeds us were steamed buns.😂

[angrybatart]

A quick continuation. Will there be a part 3? Only if I feel up to it. 🙃

[poppyseedmuffiin]

good news lads our favorite sugar meemaw is once again feeling silly and goofy

while I was waiting for dinner she appeared, which is normal, but before the buns were even on the table she hugged me and disappeared into the sky which is less normal. gam gam was already jumping the gun she had her second coming a bit ahead of schedule but then she respawned and proceeded to do it like 5 more times in a row. gotta show jesus who's boss

and once actual dinner had just started she tried it again, of course I gave my G her hug but then instead of leaving she just stood on her seat which can be dangerous for old women especially if they are past the age of 300 and have postmenopausal osteoporosis but she just really needed some extra hugs today I guess. it probably gets lonely in the nursing home #freegranny

DUDE, they made the graphics look so goooood! 🎵💙

And they made granny's place look so nice!!! (I miss how it used to look, but I like this too! I understand that they removed the hidey place under the tree???)

That explains why granny seemed to forget where the table was this past Thursday. XD

I especially like how some places look now. The Ark is STILL kinda hard to look at (my poor eyes), yet I hung around for a bit to admire the view and take this selfie. And yes. I got the Navigator cosmetics. They're very nice! The hair with the mask kinda (KIND OF) makes me look like Strife from Darksiders and I love it. The hair alone combined with the rest of my outfit (minus the earrings) also makes me think of a MHA character, but I don't know their name. I need to catch up on that series. ^_^; I'm so far behind...

Also I have a new favorite prop spell: the bonfire prop! If it's a prop I can still outside of spells, I'd love to know where and how! Though I hear there's a campfire kit coming for Days of Sunlight. Maybe I'll wait and see what that looks like.

Short update, but I'm loving the graphic improvements! Took my eyes a while to adjust, but everything seems to move/bounce more smoothly. And granny's house is just so nice to hang out at. 💙 I have older to stuff to upload later, but looking forward to sharing my experience with the AURORA Encore Concert! Hope to see you all there! (Though I will not be attending the record breaking event on Friday due to work.)

Strife for context. If I ever get Mellow Musician's scarf/cape and slap that on with my current outfit (plus whatever pants would go better), and I'll have myself a Discount Strife cosplay. Lol

Tiffany is making me remember why I love Granny Weatherwax so much. She's so beautifully imperfect, and her greatest strength is also her greatest flaw. Her pride allows her to win, because she cannot allow herself to ever, ever lose. It's like what she said to Our Jason- the price of being the best farrier in town is that you have to shoe everything that comes your way.

These rocketing wax rolls bug.. poor Delta 🙏

There's a point in Hat Full of Sky where the Hiver is described as shark-like, disregarding all other prey since it had sighted on Tiffany. A few pages later Granny Weatherwax is described as walking through the crowd like this:

And I just think it's fun, especially when you add in Tiffany's slightly uncomfortable understanding that Granny "took over" the mind of the owl the night prior.

[pratchettquotes]

"And Mrs. Earwig," said Mistress Weatherwax, her voice sinking to a growl, "Mrs. Earwig tells her girls it's about cosmic balances and stars and circles and colors and wands and...and toys, nothing but toys!" She sniffed. "Oh, I daresay that's all very well as decoration, somethin' nice to look at while you're workin', somethin' for show, but the start and finish, the start and finish, is helpin' people when life is on the edge. Even people you don't like. Stars is easy, people is hard."

She stopped talking. It was several seconds before birds began to sing again.

"Anyway, that's what I think," she added in the tones of someone who suspects that she might have gone just a bit further than she meant to.

FUNNY SKY GRANNY CROSSOVER HEADCANON TIME!

If you've seen the Courage the Cowardly Dog episode, you know.

In case you don't, or don't remember.

Debating on whether to make a full short comic or not.

One of my favourite moments from the Tiffany Aching section of the Discworld.

Though she was known universally as "Granny", Granny Aching was eleven year old Tiffany Aching's actually Granny, and she loved her dearly, and missed her a lot when she died.

As time goes by, even though Witches are not common, or popular, on the Chalk (the part of the Discworld Tiffany is from), it transpires that Tiffany has a lot of potential as a witch, and she starts to wonder if perhaps Granny Aching hadn't been a witch too, in her own subtle way. Eventually she asks the witch who is currently mentoring and training her, Miss Level, about it in a slightly roundabout way.

‘Granny Aching . . . that is, my grandmother said someone has to speak up for them as has no voices,’ Tiffany volunteered after a moment.

‘Was she a witch?’

‘I’m not sure,’ said Tiffany. ‘I think so, but she didn’t know she was. She mostly lived by herself in an old shepherding hut up on the downs.’

‘She wasn’t a cackler, was she?’ said Miss Level, and when she saw Tiffany’s expression she said hurriedly, ‘Sorry, sorry. But it can happen, when you’re a witch who doesn’t know it. You’re like a ship with no rudder. But obviously she wasn’t like that, I can tell’

‘She lived on the hills and talked to them and she knew more about sheep than anybody!’ said Tiffany hotly.

‘I’m sure she did, I’m sure she did—’

‘She never cackled!’

‘Good, good,’ said Miss Level soothingly. ‘Was she clever at medicine?’

Tiffany hesitated. ‘Um . . . only with sheep,’ she said, calming down. ‘But she was very good. Especially if it involved turpentine. Mostly if it involved turpentine, actually. But always she . . . was . . . just . . . there. Even when she wasn’t actually there . . .’

‘Yes,’ said Miss Level.

‘You know what I mean?’ said Tiffany.

‘Oh, yes,’ said Miss Level. ‘Your Granny Aching lived down on the uplands—’

‘No, up on the downland,’ Tiffany corrected her.

‘Sorry, up on the downland, with the sheep, but people would look up sometimes, look up at the hills, knowing she was there somewhere, and say to themselves “What would Granny Aching do?” or “What would Granny Aching say if she found out?” or “Is this the sort of thing Granny Aching would be angry about?” ’ said Miss Level. ‘Yes?’

Tiffany narrowed her eyes. It was true. She remembered when Granny Aching had hit a pedlar who’d overloaded his donkey and was beating it. Granny usually used only words, and not many of them. The man had been so frightened by her sudden rage that he’d stood there and taken it.

It had frightened Tiffany, too. Granny, who seldom said anything without thinking about it for ten minutes beforehand, had struck the wretched man twice across the face in a brief blur of movement. And then news had got around, all along the Chalk. For a while, at least, people were a little more gentle with their animals . . . For months after that moment with the pedlar, carters and drovers and farmers all across the downs would hesitate before raising a whip or a stick, and think: Suppose Granny Aching is watching?

But—

‘How did you know that?’ she said.

‘Oh, I guessed. She sounds like a witch to me, whatever she thought she was. A good one, too.’

Tiffany inflated with inherited pride.

'Did she help people?’ Miss Level added.

The pride deflated a bit. The instant answer ‘yes’ jumped onto her tongue, and yet…. Granny Aching hardly ever came down off the hills, except for Hogswatch and the early lambing. You seldom saw her in the village unless the peddler who sold Jolly Sailor tobacco was late on his rounds, in which case she’d be down in a hurry and a flurry of greasy black skirts to cadge a pipeful off one of the old men.

But there wasn’t a person on the Chalk, from the Baron down, who didn’t owe something to Granny. And what they owed to her, she made them pay to others. She always knew who was short of a favor or two.

‘She made them help one another,’ she said. 'She made them help themselves.’

In the silence that followed, Tiffany heard the birds singing by the road. You got a lot of birds here, but she missed the high scream of the buzzards.

Miss Level sighed. 'Not many of us are THAT good,’ she said.
