WHAT KIND OF A PLACE LACKED IN DUST and cobwebs? It seemed barbarically preposterous! she would have to write a letter of some sorts complaining to the landlord in question. Yes, that’s what she can do, at least for the time being before proper preparations could be set into motion. An air circulation system, on top of everything else; there was fresh air. ❝ My poor darling. But don’t fret, we’ll have it taken care of for you. ❞ Wednesday was old enough now to handle things on her own, Morticia was well aware of this fact however, she felt an obligation. They were the ones who had set up the accommodations for her, so it seemed only fitting that they ensure their daughter’s discomforts in such a place. That’s what families were for after all.
A reassuring sort of smile graces her lips then as she’s collected most of the ingredients that would be needed for their spell. Handing a few bottles to Wednesday, she reaches forward to touch on the girl’s cheek in a tender manner. ❝ Your father and I are so very proud of you, chérie. Though I do wish you had addressed this to us sooner, the only one to blame here is that treacherous landlord of yours. ❞ Her tongue practically hisses with distaste near the end of her statement, but she’s quick to return to her usual demeanor, not wanting to spoil this evening with further talk of such disgrace.
❝ Come, we still have one more ingredient to obtain. ❞ Renwick would be residing in the vulture feeding room, she suspects. Perhaps feeding on leftover remains that had been tossed there earlier that morning. Morticia leads the way, book still in hand along with several bottles that lightly clink together with every graceful step. ❝ Pluck just one of his feathers, will you? ❞ She doesn’t need to remind Wednesday to ask the bird for permission of course as this would be common knowledge. ❝ Then meet me outside in the cemetery, I’ll have everything set up once you arrive. ❞
“ Thank you mother, that means a lot. I just miss everyone. “ Hearing that her parents were proud of her was nothing new to her. But these tender moments shared between mother and daughter is what she missed the most. The city was very lonely, only the DEAD kept her company on those desolate and lonely nights while she was working at a job she absolutely adored with every inch of her melancholic soul. Without really thinking much of it, the young woman moved her cheek tenderly into her mother’s hand as it was laid gently on her cheek. Closing her eyes for just a moment, a moment to soak up that affection she lacked. Following soon after her mother into the feeding room.
Looking slightly up and the massive bird of prey, turning her head towards her mother as she had told her where to meet her. “ Of course mother. “ Said with a slight smirk, before casting her dark eyes back up at Renwick. A lopsided frown. “ Renwick may I grab one of your feathers ? “ She asked the large bird. He then dipped his head down as she plucked just one of his feathers. Then turning on her heel to head out of the cemetery where her mother waited for her. Clouds clung to the blue sky which made for the perfect ambiance to perform this spell. Setting the bottles down and then handing her mother the jagged looking feather.
