Canon is Wicked (Book and musical)

[elphabathropp]

Well. The good thing about all the issues with the other site is that you are coming back to all of us that you had tucked away here for 'safe keeping.' It has been a lonely year, but things are going well.

The biggest issue I have with you is you need to remember how old I am. I do not like to be a college aged child, please do not treat me as such.

But the fact that you have found the_enemy_ace gives me the greatest joy I have had in a very long time.

I do have a request for you, though. I would like to return to that community, in order for that to be a reality, you must convince them to move here.

Thank you.

Do you think your mundane capable of such a feat?

[elphabathropp]

It is rather a large task, I admit. But with the features this place has? It is not impossible.

[morewidows]

It is a very interesting place, I will give it that much, perhaps more. I was never on the other one, though it seems like a very good choice on my mundane's part the more I hear and see of it.

Dear, I must confess, you look absolutely ravishing. Morticia Addams, charmed to meet you.

[elphabathropp]

[That surprises her, she doesn't hear that often.]

Uh, thank you. Elphaba Thropp. Pleasure, Morticia. As for the choices of your mundane? It is understandable. My mundane was at the other place before she began to "pick up muses" whatever she means by that. But the steady decline over the years finally made her leave there for good.

[morewidows]

The pleasure is all mine, Elphaba.

Oh, yes, my mundane has been there for many many years now. She seems to have issues with making "more accounts" there after such happenings, so I am content to be just where I am. Things will flourish soon enough, perhaps?

[elphabathropp]

[She smiles softly.]

For a year there has been all but silence. So, I do hope this increase in population remains. It is quite lonely otherwise.

[morewidows]

All but silence? [Her lips suck in together.] I dislike the sound of silence. [Screaming is always wonderful, after all.] It is the new year, is it not? Things seem to change with them.

[elphabathropp]

Silence might be a bit of an exaggeration. However, there are many more people here now than there used to be. Which is pleasing.

[morewidows]

Hopefully many more will come in, and the new year will be much better than the last.

[elphabathropp]

[She looks hopeful.]

Well, that's always a possibility.

[morewidows]

Most anything is possible; this situation has an advantage of not only being possible, but also entirely plausible and logical.

Good luck, Elphaba.

[elphabathropp]

And you, Morticia.

[tinfoil_angel]

[Karl is quite startled by who you could find in this place. It was obvious who this witch was but luckily he knew that she wasn't so bad in her younger years.]

Hello.

[It was simple but he was trying not to blather on especially since he believed her story was similar to his own.]

[elphabathropp]

[She hadn't really expected a reply and looks a bit startled.]

Hello?

[tinfoil_angel]

Oh I'm sorry I didn't mean to startle you. I just thought I should be sociable, everyone including my mundane says that I keep to myself far too much.

[elphabathropp]

[She smiles softly.]

It's all right. I just... Well, I figured my mundane wouldn't answer, so why would anyone else?

[And why would anyone want to talk to her anyway. They usually want to kill her.]

[tinfoil_angel]

[Well he supposed that honesty was going to be the best policy in this case.]

Let's just say. I understand being targeted for what you are.

[He'd take off his goggles to show her that he had purple eyes.]

[elphabathropp]

[She's from Oz, this doesn't really surprise her.]

I don't understand. What are you?

[tinfoil_angel]

Even I'm not sure. Something powerful though, something people from my world were afraid of when my abilities came to light.

[elphabathropp]

Sounds... rather familiar.

[And she wishes it didn't, for both their sakes.]

[tinfoil_angel]

Exactly my point. The only difference between us? There were twelve of us and we were all sick of being attacked.

[elphabathropp]

How do you know anything about me? We only just met?

[It's a fair, if paranoid question.]

[tinfoil_angel]

The same way your mun knows. It's fiction in my world. Though honestly I could of read your mind to find out if that wasn't the case.

[elphabathropp]

[She's not exactly pleased with either of those answers.]

So I'm fiction to everyone but myself?

[tinfoil_angel]

Or they don't know about you at all, yes.

But that is how we all are. To one degree or another we're fiction to somebody. Some are also more popular than others.

[elphabathropp]

You speak strangely. But I think it would explain why I do not know anyone else.

[tinfoil_angel]

I'm sorry the way I speak is usually more relaxed.

[elphabathropp]

[She shrugs.]

Everyone is strange to me.

[tinfoil_angel]

Oh by the way, my name is Karl.

[He'd offer a smile.]

[elphabathropp]

[She gives a nod of her head.]

Karl. I'm Elphaba.

[tinfoil_angel]

A pleasure Elphaba.

Do you happen to garden at all?

[elphabathropp]

Are you asking because you're curious, or do you have expectations because I am... fiction in your world?

[tinfoil_angel]

I'm asking out of curiosity. I have no expectations of you and to be perfectly honest I'm hoping this changes what is to come for you in history.

[elphabathropp]

[She nods her understanding.]

I do. How else would I have ways to feed myself.

[tinfoil_angel]

Ah right I'm guessing Oz is more of trading economy then?

Though that doesn't matter much I asked because I was going to offer to show you my garden.

[elphabathropp]

Sort of. I think it more has to do with.... me. But, I can always learn new things. Yes, I would like to see your garden.

[worm_dancer]

I hear you are called a witch.

[elphabathropp]

[Her eyes narrow.]

According to some...

[worm_dancer]

According to the ignorant, you mean. [A smile. That reaction tells her what she thinks she needs to know.] I have been called such too.

[elphabathropp]

Actually, no. "Witch" is simply a word. It is the way in which that word is used that reveals if one is ignorant or not.

/just finished Out Of Oz

[worm_dancer]

I suppose you have a point. I am Sheeana. [She may notice she has the same color as a Quadling or half-Arjiki, though there is no smell of the swamp about her. Then there are the total blue eyes. Not as eye catching as being green, but still noticeable.]

This Elphie is a cross between musical and Life & Times...

[elphabathropp]

Elphaba.

[She's never been one to acknowledge physical differences. What kind of hypocrite would that make her if she did?]

And why would people call you a witch?

[worm_dancer]

It is popular slang for advanced members of my order. As per your earlier point, sometimes it is used affectionately and sometimes derisively.

[elphabathropp]

And sometimes it is a simple statement of fact. You rank low in your community, then?
