Mun shares modern cure for the broken heart with Muse

[goodnotwicked]

[ Theodora sits with her mun, both seated tailor-style, with a big tub of mint-chocolate-chip ice cream between them. Mun had taken the green apple from Theodora's hands and instead placed a big spoon, with which Theodora scrapes the creamy treat inside the tub, then pops it into her mouth, savoring the taste, though the tear streaks are still telling on her cheeks. ]

Are you certain this is best method for healing broken hearts in your land? [ Theodora eats the ice cream nonetheless. ] It still hurts. [ She hiccups, then takes another spoonful of mint-chocolate-chip. ] I wish you'd let me take the apple.

[ Mun slings an arm around Theodora's shoulders.

The apple is the last thing you need, Dora. ]

But it would have helped.

[ No. It would have made things much worse. ]

Better than this pain.

[ Do you really want to be like your sister? ]

...no, I don't.

Mun saw the train wreck.

He was kind of a jerk who had a lot of growing up to do. Problem was with him, not you.

And your mun's got a point about the ice cream. It is a pretty good fallback. So is going out of the house and finding something else to do. Keeps your mind off it.

But he is the Great and Powerful Wizard. There mustn't be anything wrong with him.

My, yours certainly is wise. It's good to see you in such hands, Theodora.

[ AND! Theodora freezes. She really didn't think Glinda would appear, and now that she has, it just makes Theodora remember that Oscar threw her over for the Good Witch of the North. Her eyes got to her mun for a silent question of "what do I do?", so mun pulls Theodora close.

She won't kill you, Dora. ]

Thank you, Glinda.

Just because he's powerful or a wizard, doesn't necessarily mean he can't do stupid or immature things. And sometimes being great and powerful means that someone's more inclined to do stupid things, because the power goes to their head.

[His godfather? First-rate example.]

No one's perfect. Unfortunately, his actions meant you got hurt. With time, maybe he'll grow up, and you'll find someone who will treat you right.
