*Ms. Margaret Braeburn is sitting curled up with a copy of Wuthering Heights and a mug of hot chocolate, should anyone like to annoy visit her. She's got the intensely focused look of a slightly obsessive academic absorbed in a book, but that just means it'll be more fun when someone approaches and scares the hell out of her.*

*Matilda happens to be walking by where she is sitting. She isn't one to pass by a book (even if someone else is reading it) so she cautiously peers over Ms. Braeburn's shoulder.*

I'm sure you'd be a much better mother than mine was. *wrinkles her nose* She expected me to watch television instead of read.

. . . That's horrifying. Was she trying to rot your brain away entirely?

[matildahoney]

*nods* I think so. She was horrible.

She certainly sounds awful. Television isn't even interesting.
