A/N: I finally got inspiration!
Meeting your boyfriend's parents is often nerve-racking. It's worse when they already expect something of you.
Fiyero's parents were no different. When they got Fiyero's letter, saying he was going to bring a guest with him to their monthly dinners at the Vinkun restaurant just outside the campus, they already knew what to expect, or so they thought. They expected a bubblehead, who wouldn't understand a word of Vinkun and have to have Fiyero to translate everything for her.
So when Elphaba came in on Fiyero's arm that day, they were surprised to find an air of intelligence and grace surrounding her. She sat down and calmly nodded her head to them before picking up the menu and beginning to scan it. When the waiter came to take their orders, they waited for Elphaba to ask Fiyero to translate what she wanted. Instead she spoke, in perfect Vinkun. "Me gustaría tener un agua con una ramita de limón. También me gustaría tener su sopa de gazpacho." She turned to Fiyero's parents, who watching her with amazed expressions. "¿Mencioné que hablar con fluidez Vinkun?"
End Drabble. Here's the translation of what Elphaba said, "I would like a water with a sprig of lemon. Also I would like to have your gazpacho soup. Did I mention I speak fluent Vinkun?" (Gazpacho soup is a vegetarian Mexican dish.)
