Hello, once again! For the hundredth time, I am SO sorry for never updating on schedule! I'll try to get better at that, but don't count on it happening anytime soon. Sorry about that. That aside, I have some AWESOME news! This fic has been nominated for not one, but TWO GREG AWARDS! Thanks to anybody that nominated me!
If you haven't already, go vote for your favorites. There are so many awesome authors and fics nominated this year, I can't wait to see if my favorites win! Now, here's the 8th chapter! (Really really short, but the next chapter will be the Christmas special and will be rather long)
It had been a few weeks since Galinda's huge birthday party. According to Galinda, throwing a big party would earn the green girl a bunch of respect from the S.U.C.O.S.A.A.T.F.P.P. And to Elphaba's surprise, she was right. Partially right, at least, as many of the members of the council had been more accepting Elphaba, but a few of them hadn't. According to Galinda, all that she needed to do was win them over. Fortunately, the blonde had a plan.
It was a random day in December and Elphaba was doing what she always did this time of year, sitting by the fireplace and reading, it still amazed Elphaba that their dorm had a fireplace in it, when Galinda came running in.
"Elphie! I have an idea!" She chirped. Elphaba looked up to see her roommate running towards her, a long piece of paper in her hand.
"What's your idea?"
"Look at this list. It's a list of the entire S.U.C.O.S.A.T.F.P.P! We throw a holiday party, inviting all of these people, right? And we make it the most epic party ever, and we get you some respect from the council, and then you're in!"
"Another party? I literally just threw that party for you a week or two ago!"
"Oh, come on! This is an awesome idea! It'll work!"
"Why is it so important that I be on the S.U.C.O.S.A.T.F.P.P?"
"Wow, Elphie, you memorized the name! Why would you memorize the name if you didn't want to be part of it?"
"Galinda, if I agree to do this, will you just let me be in peace after that?"
"I don't make promises I can't keep, Elphie."
"Okay, fine! I'll do it, but I'm not planning this alone. You're helping me a lot!"
"Of course I am! Parties are my thing. I'll help out as much as I can!"
"Okay, then let's do this."
I know that's ridiculously short, and I'll make the next chapter extra long. Again, thanks for the nominations!
To my 'Thank Goodness' readers: I have a poll up on my profile that I want to ask you to vote on. The poll is to determine the gift that Beau and Leo will give to Galinda. It needs to special,as they think it will be their last Lurlinemas together. Have any ideas? PM them to me, please!
An important note: Right now, my grades aren't where I want them to be. They aren't horrible, but I've reached my all-time low. For me, it is important to bring them up and so Fanfiction won't be my main focus. Not that it has been recently, and I'm sorry. There will be a Christmas/Lurlinemas special for this and 'Thank Goodness', but I have no idea when I'll be back after that. Once I get at least halfway to where I want to be, I'll be back. I hope that you guys can understand. For me, my education does and always will come first. Thank you guys so much!
