I'll be having a tight eye on you." With that, she gave Sally a taste of her "tight eye".

"But dear 'stepmother,' it is Nogrod who committed the offense of waking me, and a child such as I can not be held responsible for her reflexes. Thus I refuse to apologize."
Greenie started to reply, but
Sally quickly raised a hand to silence her and continued. "As for your 'tight eye,' I think it loose, as you seem to have lost your ability to separate accuastion from good fun. I quite like
Nogrod, and if my suspicions are correct and he IS indeed of the furry variety I shall be quite sad to see him go, but I must tease him nonetheless in case he has made such a clumsy error. And so I say to you, oh bossy one, be gone, and find yourself some nice prunes upon which to feast. Perhaps then you may be fully awake and able to join our discussion."
Sally lowered her hand and waited for
Greenie's response, but the stepmother simply stared at her, mouth agape, then collected herself, huffed angrily, and stormed off.
