 [Tiffany really should have known better.

She really should have. However sometimes you have to take a risk. At least she didn't lose a limb.  You can find Tiffany either,

[ Let's examine this for a second. There is a grey piece of cheese rolling down the street. It also happens to be holding silverware. And rolling away from a girl. Thus, the cheese is conscious.

He's heard weirder. ]

...This'd be yours, Miz?

[the_wee_big_hag]

Yes. His name is Horace.

[She seems to be gaining on it anyway.]

[madeofstoic]

[ Yep, definitely conscious. ] Not a bad name. Does i- he not like you or somethin'?

[the_wee_big_hag]

Oh no. It's just the Feegles-

[Grabs the cheese in her arms.]

Got you, you wee scunner. I told you they weren't here.

[She shakes her head and picks up the silverware that was dropped.]

Sorry, no it's a Feegle thing. They steal anything that isn't nailed down and if it is, they'll steal the nails too.

[madeofstoic]

Hm. N'er heard of those. Where'r they from? [ He is learning so much new terminology these days. ]

[the_wee_big_hag]

Oh they're from my world. Small blue men with tattoos that steal, drink and fight. The Nac Mac Feegle.

[madeofstoic]

[ Hm. Higgs has really got to get used to this "different worlds" thing, though he's begun to pick up on it. ]

...'Nd they make livin' cheese, too?

[the_wee_big_hag]

Oh no. That was me. But they adopted him in a way.

[madeofstoic]

Hm. You have to transfer a brain into it or somethin'? [ Higgs is from mad science land you do not have to understand this. ]

[the_wee_big_hag]

No. I just made him and I think some magic got mixed in. I'm not really sure how it happened.

[madeofstoic]

[ Oh magic. That's new. He's going to take a second to comprehend this. Forgive him if he sounds absolutely ridiculous. ] ...Just had some magic lyin' around?

[the_wee_big_hag]

Oh, no I don't mean it's a physical thing. I was just trying to make this type of cheese called a Blue Lancre and...well it turned into Horace.

[madeofstoic]

...Must've been some mighty special cheese. [ No seriously, where Higgs is from Cheese is everywhere. Imagine magic cheese. ]

[the_wee_big_hag]

[....amazing.]

It's very hard to make properly anyway.
