(PROSE: Honeymoon Horrors) Indeed, Miss Garglespike herself was an advanced practitioner of acumancy, "pin magic". She wore a veritable armour of pins on her jacket, and most of her decorative pins could be un-shrunken to turn into various magical weapons. Others among her pins were trophies from people she had killed, including a cat-shaped pin belonging to the President Kodachrome. (PROSE: The Bloodletters) The Sixth Doctor wore a similar pin.
