The tailor raised his eyebrows. Suspiciously. He suspected something and said as much.

"Steve, I suspect you practice witchcraft. Am I right?"

"No" said Steve. "Women are witches. Men are wizards. You know what, just give me back my robe, I'll mend it myself.".

"I never loo oo o uh" In search of support, Marty looked at his mother who bowed her face in shame, looking in silence at the same broken floorboard for the last hour.
"Son. We know it was you who posted the image. You've admitted as much." The special agent sighed, and then looked at his partner. "We don't want to take up your mothers entire day, so.." The agent beside him chimed in, "It would be best if you came with us, Marty."

This will be the cover feature.

"Looking over everything, I suppose the most immediately important thing to say is that Ethan's vision is completely normal and nothing to be concerned with -- problems seeing the whiteboard are sort of par the course, especially as he's informed me that he's a bit of a gamer."
"Yeah, 'a bit.' But when you say 'immediately important' -- do you mean there's something wrong with him?"
"Well, there's this sort of crystalline buildup near the ocular nerves which increases the pressure on the blood vessels. It's not abnormal, exactly--"
"Like glaucoma? My mom had that -- is he at risk for blindness?"
"No, it's not glaucoma, and it doesn't really impact vision the same way -- it's worth keeping an eye on, but he should be fine. There are many cases of this occurring in childhood and then not progressing into anything serious. The only thing you absolutely need to tell him is that he can't ever take Viagra."

She came in weekly for cheesecloths, yet was not a brewer or cheesemaker, and occasionally for fixes on robes that had been burnt or melted and smelled of foul innards and brimstone. Her face was kind but she wasn't used to people. Her hair was in a practical cut. I think it might have once suffered the same fate as her robes. She was blond and short. Her body is always hidden under robes and what she wears under them. But I know from my work that her clothes were for a fairly attractive girl, if a bit small.
I've offered her better clothes since hers were ragged, I even offered a discount but she always declines. She must not see the need for clothes beyond practicality. It's an odd mindset for a young woman to have.
One day I paid a street boy who sometimes fetches clothes for customers to keep an eye on her for a day. I was just a bit curious but I think I might rather have not put the pieces together. She purchased foul ingredients like fish eyes and guts and gathered the fallen scale from the smithy. What could these ingredients be for but some dark witchcraft detrimental to all civilized folk.
Tomorrow she'll likely come in again as she always does. I plan to follow her to her home.
