Well. This was certainly not what she was expecting to see when she turned around. It seemed as though someone had replaced the inside of her cottage with...well. She's not exactly sure what this is ( Read more... )

"Okie-dokie, Granny. You ready to find out which one of our fantastic lands you'll be livin' in?"

Granny's eyes narrowed at 'Granny.' Generally the only ones that called her that were the children of Lancre. And Magrat, but she was a Wet Hen and didn't count much. But the Mouse's voice made it such that it was impossible to tell exactly how old it was, so she decided to let it go and focus on its question instead. "How many lands you got?"

Mickey did have a certain childlike quality to him...

"We've got eight neato lands that you could live in." The mouse ticked them off on his fingers and there were just enough fingers for lands.

"There's Adventureland for tough guys and gals, Tomorrowland for people of the future, Critter Country for critters and the people who love 'em, Toon Town (that's where I live), Fantasyland is a magical place, Main Street for normal folks, New Orleans Square which is a little spooky, and Frontierland for those folks who are on the edge and in between. If you could choose your home, where would you want to be?"

Granny paused, lost in thought. Assuming 'my cottage in Lancre' wasn't an acceptable answer, the question became surprisingly difficult. Fantasyland was the obvious choice, being a witch, but she had a a sinking suspicion that the magic the mouse was talking about was all wishes and fairy dust. Spooky might suit her more. But...

"On the edge and in between what?"

He blinked. No one had ever asked that before. "Just in between..."

Granny was particularly hard to place.

She was also particularly hard to please. "You got to be in between somethin'. Two somethin's in fact. Otherwise you're just 'next to'"

"Frontierland is in between Adventureland and New Orleans Square," the mouse pointed out.

"Then you ought to say so," she said. "What's the point of bein' vague?"

Mickey didn't get frustrated, but he did get confused. Unable to answer, he just skipped ahead to the next bit. "Then you wanna live in Frontierland?"

Granny did get frustrated. Of course, as she was a barely controlled mass of rage and pride, this wasn't unusual. "Did I say that?" she snapped. "I just wanted to know what it was in between." She paused. "No. I thinks I'll go to New Orleans Square, if it's all the same to you."

Mickey shrugged. "Okay. You are pretty spooky. I'll put you in New Orleans Square. Your mail will go to Granny. Welcome to the Happiest Place on Earth!"

((And if you'll put your contact info here, she'll be all set to move in. :D))
