” Who took the last furcicle? How can I finish my spell without it?”
Jazzy was concentrating on her own spell, if she didn’t get it right this time she was going to fail spell casting 201. She couldn’t let that happen! Turning towards Maise, she replied, “Just go and find another! You know how you always are so good at finding those obscure ingredients.”
“I suppose I’ll have to or I’ll never finish. I know just where to look too!” Maise exclaimed, whisking out the door.
Maise patiently looked in all her secret locations. “There’s one!”
She knew the fair always had one lying around.
Oh what mystery and intrigue you have created Jackie, excellent story, so where next?

Dear Jackie,
One man’s cotton candy is another’s secret ingredient? I love the spell you cast with this one.

I hope I never find one of these at the fair! I’m not going to touch it now. An evil spell will be cast on me. Great story, Jackie.

Love the idea of a fircicle – an apt description for whatever is on the end of Kent’s stick. I wondered in the last line whether the fair referred to a place or ‘fair’ people – as in non-witches? Either works, and ambiguity allows the reader to make up their own mind.

I thought it was a good description. The fair actually refers to a place. I never thought of ‘fair’ people. Darn it! Thanks for stopping by and reading!
