Chapter: Story 06: I Dream of a B-Witch
Huh, apparently being a witch has some occupational hazards.

Do you want to know the REAL reason witches are thought to ride brooms?
Warning, it’s NSFW.

Take THAT Harry Potter.

Ah… That explains the broomstick. Clever my complements CD.
LMAO
Man, witches must avoid hardware stores like the plague.
Imagine if Jeanie teleported herself and Sam together into a Home Depot. It would be pandemonium!
She’d have to avoid a couple aisles at the grocery store, too.
I think that Sam is going to be really pissed at her hubby.
Maybe Derick will be sharing the pole with “Natalie” at The Hiram…
I’d pay to see that!
I am picturing Charlie Brown now. XD
Note to self: If you ever date a witch don’t take them to a broom factory or warehouse… actually never do that with regulars as well.
Or Renaissance Faire where some craftsman is selling brooms?
Suddenly heard Ash shouting “This…is my BROOMSTICK!”

Then you might like “Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality”. It has a scene where Harry says that line VERY badassedly while riding a rocket-powered broom.
Snape: Mister Potter…of all the exclamations of surprise one could possibly use upon the accidental summoning of a djinn, I would have to say that “well bugger me with a broomstick!” is the most unfortunate I have heard of.
@Elfguy:
Ouch.
Also: Favourite fan fiction (for now)!
(In the final frame, the fingers are nor colored in.)
Oh no! I hate it when I miss stuff like that. I’ll fix it ASAP.
Is this how he first swept her off her feet?
Does this make her a besom beauty?
Do you want to say “whisk! whisk!” at these one-liners?
A least she’s not a POOF-tah.
I got a million of ’em.
I decided that I wasn’t going to make a clean sweep of things, but let the rest of you grasp a few straws. 😀
I remember an episode of “Bewitched” where a warlock was a bedwarmer…
I guess that’s a whisk broom.
Or “whoosh” broom.
I doubt that just any broom on a random shelf is attracted to a witch.
But I admit, I don’t quite understand how that would work. I can only conclude that Derick in some way sends the broom after Sam, analogous to Neil’s bottle rubbing.
And, yes, I can’t help but notice that Derick has in effect given his wayward witch a stroke on her bottom.
Derick specifically mentions wooden brooms. Modern ones made from metal or plastics wouldn’t work.
Still, it was not very long ago that brooms were all made of wood, especially from the perpective of an immortal.
But wooden brooms are still on sale; I prefer them. There must be something else involved. For symmetry reasons, I like Derick having some power to call Sam, even as Neil does over Jeanie.
[Aside: Let’s face it: this is probably an oversight on Rudd’s part, and we shouldn’t read too much into it. Rules of Cool and Funny are in full effect.]
This sounds like it could be a problem, imagine sam and derrick are driving down the highway and they pass a truck full of brooms.
Also Endora andd Jeannie both seem to like causing trouble, wonder what’ll happen when they meet.
I think it’s OK as long as they are restrained (the brooms). Notice Derick has no trouble holding the broom, it only takes off once he lets go. So brooms inside a truck would probably not cause a problem. A rack of brooms on display on the other hand . . . 😉
Curse work making me miss updates, oh well more to read and I’m rather entertained by Derrick wondering if Jeanie knows his mother in law.
