Title: Common Man's Tale
Rating: PG-13
Type: Book/Musical
A/N: I know, I'm so slow at updating. I've just been so stretched out amongst everything…Also, I love my mother. This is not based off of her.
It was the worst night of the year when the future headmistress was born, but that could just be a common man's tale. She never met her father and her mother was the 'mistress of the older gentleman's nights.' But every person could, and more than likely would in great detail, tell you she was a gentle, caring, lovely woman who would do anything for her daughter. The woman sold her grandmother's jewels to get her daughter through that high class school.
But the daughter never gave her mother the respect she deserved. In fact, it is said that when she was accepting her position as headmistress at Shiz, she took the name Madame Morrible because 'I had such a horrible mother and without her I wouldn't know the right way to fail and the wrong way to succeed.'
But that could just be a common man's tale.
