#met gytha (curvy as a road through the ramtops and biddable - as long as you suggested what she wanted to do anyway)

[notbecauseofvictories]

I'm re-reading Pratchett's Wyrd Sisters for book club, and there should really be a truly epic saga about The Friendship Of Gytha and Esme, Young Witches Who Absolutely Shouldn't Get Along But Do, Shockingly (Even If Sometimes There are Minor Natural Disasters Because There Has Been A Row)

#the scene where they get into a snarly fight because the country is poisoning them against each other? #and then the scene where granny is SO pissed off that magrat and nanny have to wrestle her down #and as the trees start to shake and the wind picks up - nanny slaps her. #that is friendship. #I would love to read about how it started. #how esme (thinner than a hat rack and easily offended as a cat; charging after every scrap of knowledge she can find) #met gytha (curvy as a road through the ramtops and biddable - as long as you suggested what she wanted to do anyway) #and they ended up getting along - more than getting along. being....friends? #even when gytha was more mother than maiden and esme was mumblemumble #they were friends. #discworld
