Saffron This is something you need to handle on your own. Personally, I don't get involved with mediating, not even for a friend. That kind of thing always ends badly. Pepper P-please Saffron... I'm not learning anything with my godmothers, all they do is take over my home, complain about their old creaky bones and shout at me no matter what I do... You really can't come and help me talk to them about it ... ? Saffron Listen, you're a witch , start acting like one! Talk to them straight! Like a big girl! Alright, alright! I suppose I can come with you and talk to them about it.
