Author's Note:
I just saw Nightmare Before Christmas and realized the main characters were a tall, skinny guy in a striped suit and a redheaded woman with a big mouth, and I just had to write this:)
There was a terrible noise and a rush of wind. Leaves scattered across the cobbled street. A man and woman stepped out from behind a lopsided building. A tall, thin man, in a striped suit, with a smooth, round white face like a grinning skull, and fingers white and bony. The woman wore an old, patchwork sack of a dress, stitches circled her chalk-white arms and leaves poked from between the stitches. The wind tugged on her long red hair.
A scrawny black cat stalked across the road. A fat man with a frowning face walked by, his face turned into a smile when he saw them. "Jack Skellington! And Sally! That's perfect! I just saw the movie, it was wonderful. I thought about going and seeing it again but I'm out of money. The theater's around the corner." The man pointed. "Happy Halloween/Merry Christmas. Have fun!"
Donna pushed her hair back out of her face and glared at the Doctor as his eyes twinkled at her from behind his skull mask. "Fine! But I still say your suit should be black with stripes. Not brown."
