Title: Above All, Dignity
Author: il_mio_capitano
Prompt: Pumpkin
Setting: Season 5. Giles


There were a great number of heavy boxes, but then Mrs Hilderhurst was a great and heavy spender at the Magic Box and Giles had been compelled to carry her purchases to her Cadillac.

“My,” he exclaimed as a dachshund wearing an orange suit with green cuffs and a jaunty green cap, cast forlorn eyes at him from the back seat. “Why is your dog dressed as a…” He’d wanted to say carrot but stopped in time.

“Sweetie makes a delightful pumpkin doesn’t she?” she gushed before snapping, “Don’t drop those, you clumsy oaf.”

Dog and man exchanged sympathetic looks.

Thank you. I loved that film, you making me think of watching it again.

You should; it never gets old. :-) However, I must advise you to not waste your time reading the book. I thought I was going to actually get a book I loved because the movie was based off of the book, but I couldn't even finish the thing. It had practically no Howl/Sophie romance, and that was the best part of that movie!

I do, however, highly recommend The Cat Returns from the same studio. If you haven't seen it yet, you must!!
