At this rate, pretty soon, between us, we'll have them locked in caves suspended in mid-aim from ropes tied to the roof of a poot beanstock.
But coming back to the plot for a moment, you've told us that Cleo isn't a witch, just a rep for the council, and we already know that Coriander is a chocolate teapot, but what about Gemma - if Cleo knows her, could she be a witch? Or for that matter, could she be anythin useful in this situation?

Indeed, they are!  Gimme a break, though; I just got back from my German class, and the language center of my brain is all tuckered out.
Coriander is a chocolate teapot? Did I miss something? 
Gemma's past (or the more important bits of it) will be explained, hopefully, in the next chapter, though I'm sure everyone's already guessed anyway. I still have a few tricks up my frayed sleeve.

I'm guessing that Stubby's referring to the phrase:
"About as much use as a chocolate teapot"
(perhaps...  )

Well there's an expression I haven't seen before. It's a goodie, though.

Chocolate fireguard is the one I've heard most often, but teapot works for me.

Yeah, I'd say that sums up Coriander's usefulness pretty accurately. But perhaps he'll prove himself later. Who knows?
I do, that's who.
Edit: Poll's up, people!

Went for the poot root option, despite the typos.

I went for the root of the tree that goes poot.
So down fly the cages while up the elf shoots!
I know that it's my own idea I toot,
But for all of the others I don't give two hoots!
Well, actually, some of them were rather good, but I couldn't think of a Better rhyme!

I would go about saving a poor tree, but I think I will just go with my idea. You know to add some competition.

Get off my lawn, you smelly hippies!
You guys are certainly determined to make me work for this, aren't you? If that option wins (which it looks like it will), I'm going to have my work cut out for me in chapter five. But that's what makes all this worth it, I suppose.
Or is it the fables? Yes, that must be it.

*laughs* We make you work hard, so you can give us some good stuff. Of course the fables are useful. We earn a lot.

Yes Lordy, 5 comes after 4.
Well actually, it's chapter 5 in storygame terms, but I think if this were a novel, it would be like chapter 8 or something around there.

Voted for poot root purely because it it seems the most likely to get them out of trouble.
And cos everyone's raving about it so much... :biggrin:

Actually, Rave, lordy's comment was in reference to the fact that I accidentally said I'd have my work cut out for me in chapter four, instead of chapter five. Huh-whoops! Like I said, the language center of my brain was all pooted out last night.

Heh. Funny you should mention that, because last night I went to print out chapters 2-4 of my story for my brother (because he's too lazy to get off his arse to read it off the internet like everyone else). I was expecting maybe ten pages at the most, but instead it printed out, like, fifty. Am I long-winded, or what?

You and me both, kiddo!
I seem to have lost the ability to write short chapters these days. You, it seems, never had the ability in the first place.
With chapters this good, though, who cares? Keep it long, keep it funny and keep the poots coming

Long chapters are so much easier to write than short chapters. We have so much to say, and it's hard to put it in within a few short pages. You should see my NanoWrimo Story, it's about 120 pages typed on Microsoft Word.

So do we have to wait long for the fifth chapter, Thracy? I think the tree-huggers are winning.

You mean I have to wait a tad bit until the next chapter? Or are you a tad bit of a tree-hugger, Solie?

Well, I'm going to try my hardest to avoid a repeat of the month-long wait between chapters three and four. I'm putting together some ideas (since the way the poll went was unexpected and completely changed my plans, you darn sneaky Iffians), and I'm going to try to start tonight. Giving up coffee for Lent has definitely taken its toll on my writing, though, since nighttime is the only chance I get to write in peace, and now I get tired around 12 AM. I have a feeling things will really take off after Easter...

Didn't notice the month-long gap. I just got into this story this month. I pity those who do Lent, though I myself would never be able to do it. *pats Thracy* You will a lot better soon enough. Keep strong.

I once hugged a tree. After losing a bet. In the ninth grade. When I was fourteen. *hangs head in shame*
If anyone knows a good source of caffeine, other than coffee (and if it's tea, it had better be darn good, 'cause I hate that stuff), I would greatly appreciate it if they could let me know about it. Last night I had to go to sleep at 12:30 AM because I just couldn't keep my eyes open.

Redbull is good - but isn't half-past midnight a reasonable time to fall asleep?

Not when you're a high school student trying to get into college. I hear most students stay up till 3 in the morning, which is normal. I pulled a near all-nighter once for an English paper, 4 AM. I would say going to sleep half-past midnight is just plain luck for any of us. I usually drink tea, straight black jasmine tea, or Korean ginsing tea.

Half-past twelve is usually a good time to sleep, but I live with my family still, and the only time I can write in peace is after everyone else has gone to bed around 10:45. When I wrote chapter four, I was up until 4 AM (and I had to get up at 9, but it was worth it to finally get the stupid thing written).
I've never tried Redbull. Does it taste any good? I'll have to look into that and the two teas you mentioned, Rave. Thanks! *passes around grateful cookies*

If you can cope with intense sweetness and like Calpol with a touch of cough medicine - then you'll love Redbull.
As it is - I do

There was some other energy drink I heard of that my brother and his friends like since they're all gamers and need it when they have LAN parties...but I can't remember the name of it.
*takes a bite of the cookie* Yeah, double chocolate chip!

There are these wierd tablets called 'Foosh' which as much caffeine as a cup of stong coffee. Just like a really strong breathmint, but they work. WoW all-nighters got easier with 'em, though I've finally stopped doing that now. *hangs head in shame*

I have tried drinking soda in general for caffeine, and it just doesn't work for me. So I just catnap for half an hour, and am wide awake for several more hours.

Oooh, apparently it would take about 52 cups of coffee to kill me. Cool. *passes out more grateful cookies*
I think I've finally hit upon a solution: Vernor's ginger soda. I don't think it contains any caffeiney goodness, but it does keep me awake somehow. Thanks for all the help! I almost bought some Redbull at the store tonight, but I chickened out.
