Annnnnd we are BACK Pardon the rickety images...Tato insisted on WHITE...and it does not lend itself very well to edits XD ONCE UPON A TIME there was a LOVELY PRINCESS named TATO Yes...he is very lovely But Princess Tato had a problem.... He could not find a suitable halloween costume for the haloween BALL that happens every year (seriously you'd think that if it was a huge deal there would be a little planning ahead) THIS year...Tato decided to see the help of the witch in the woods... Who...while being VERY CUTE and SMOL and SPOOPY....cackled and said "wish for a costume more beautiful than all....beauty skin deep leaves many appalled"
Tato does not care for poetry unless he writes it so he ignored this totally and demanded a new COSTUME
THEN WAZZAM
HE WAS TURNED INTO THE MOST MAGICAL BEAUTIFUL CREATURE ALIVE: DUH DUH DUUUUUUUUHHHHH
TA DAH
MAGICAL MAGNIFICENT PERFECT IN EVERY WAY EXCEPT!!!!
Tato was now doomed to be in costume forever. The cost of being the most perfect means you must carry this burden forever
-evil cackles-
NOOOOOOOO (DIDN'T SEE THAT COMING...well you probably should have at this point)
......
Moral of the story: pay closer attention to poetry
even if the poet is the cutest evil witch in the woods there is
*my husband helped me write this story and his moral of the story was "ain't no free lunch, bitch" XD
So.... seriously Tato....that is your tale of woe?
I guess so.
THE END

Scrampus has a story for you.
"This is a completely true story. It actually happened to a friend of mine, let's call him R.
R wanted to take his whole big family to the Fall Festival. Fortunately, he was good with kids, so he took a babysitting gig to save up some extra money. The kids were nice, the house was comfortable, and the parents were going to be out overnight so they told him he could stay in their own bedroom.
Things went pretty well. R played with the kids, even though he had to scold them for making such a mess out of their toy room.
They ate popcorn and watched some child-friendly movies.
Eventually, it was the kids' bedtime. R tucked them into bed and sang them a lullaby.
After all this, R was pretty exhausted and looking forward to a good night's sleep on the parents' huge bed. Just as he was about to head to bed, he heard the phone ring.
He went to the kitchen to pick it up. It was the parents, checking in on everyone.
"The kids were wonderful! We played some games, we watched a movie, and now they're sound asleep."
"Great, great. Like we said, feel free to sleep in our bedroom. It's more comfortable than the couch!"
"That actually reminds me of something I wanted to ask you," said Raffles, somewhat nervous, "Do you mind if I cover the creepy clown statue in your room? It makes me uncomfortable."
There was a pause.
"Take the kids out of the house NOW," said the mum's voice, urgently, "We don't have a clown statue in our bedroom."
THE END"
EDIT: I just realised I didn't check if this was ok. I didn't write a wholly original story, I wrote an urban legend that was popular when I was a kid and put a petzy twist on it. It's ok if it doesn't count

[ QUICK APPLE TURNOVERS ] π I am most looking forward to indulging in all the little cozy things about fall; baking spiced goods, wearing my cozy socks and oversized sweaters, cuddling into a soft blanket while reading, drinking cinnamon chai tea, and watching the leaves change for the first time in my new home's backyard! π I have far too many favorite fall drinks and treats! A few of my faves would be cinnamon chai tea, pumpkin spice lattes, ginger cookies, and homemade pumpkin donuts! π Here is Mottle balancing on a pumpkin! (: Thank you so much for these adorable stamps, Neb! I love them!!

Word Scramble[ Message 1: For many, autumn symbolizes change -- may you all reap the bountiful rewards for your hard work this year!
Message 2: Autumn is the season for rest and recovery so take care of yourselves everyone!] Petzy PredictionsTurbo approaches the Three Witches cautiously and whispers, "I'm a golden retriever who isn't gold." As the Three Witches look at her amused, she then looks at them and says, "My question is, why is that auto-rolling ball SO addictive?!"

I am highly entertained by the stories so far, and of course, the pictures! Dew that is indeed the tiniest sweetest evil witch i've ever seen (and lol @ the lesson LOL!) (also, your username isn't collieluver!!? what!!) lobb i love the incorporations of the different scenes, particularly that tv shot! childfriendly movie indeed. i think all stories (especially horror tropes) are recycled / passed from one person to another to a degree, so anything counts as long as it's not copied word for word and was written/adapted by you it's just bonus points for originality (and scrampus just makes the best narrator and statue!) Bunni just describing my ideal fall ahh π and to experience the season and all it brings in your new home for the first time, that's something really special β₯οΈ you're welcome for the stamps! mottle is looking adorable
Emmer reading turbo's words made me laugh haha, our witches will get to you slowly but surely (it really is addictive, isn't it?) meezers incoming below! β

I have a randomiser for each cat to determine they answer or not, with a small chance of them getting distracted / giving out something amusingly unhelpful or irrelevant instead of answering! Do you know if Grissi and I will ever be able to get along better? I really do try not to fight with her!
- - - - πΎ - - - - πΎ - - - - πΎ - - - - lobb & Raffles
His question for the venerable witches is: "Why don't the mice want to be my friends? I'm always nice to them, but they still seem scared of me and keep running away " hoping get some time to sit down and relax with these meezers this weekend, and relay the rest of the answers to the' questions back to everyone (:

Thanks for clarifying the story rules! I don't know why but I thought that taking an ~edgy~ urban legend and making it petzy would be hilarious (and no worries, the text was written by me) I LOVED the witches' answers, they're so creative and fun! I've got to say, though, Raffles is horrified by the suggestion. Mice are friends, not food, why do cats want to eat them! Everyone knows food comes in boxes or bowls, it doesn't run around in the backyard

nebula βοΈI love this, I really like the idea that you used a tarot card randomizer to draw his cards, that's so cool! While Peter was nervous at first, he's happy with his fortune! (Also I look forward to those challenges, I'm sure they'll be a lot of fun!!)
