So this is basically just where everything is canon, but Elsa is a teenager and the accident with Anna hasn't happened so that's why it's canon divergence.

Have a great Christmas everyone!

( P.S. Idk if anyone knows this but I roleplay Elsa on Tumblr so constructive criticism in particular about the way I write for her is very much appreciated, thank you! )

Day 23- Magic: Canon Divergence AU

Elsa had always liked magic as a child. While she didn't know why she had her powers, or even how to control them, using magic always made her feel whole.

It was just unfortunate that her family didn't understand.

It wasn't that they were afraid of her powers, or disliked them at all. In fact, Anna always loved her powers. They just didn't understand that she liked them, or how much they meant to her. That was why she was so happy when they boy at the window came along.

Elsa was always supposed to keep her window shut; sleeping in a castle that was a given rule, but as she got older she couldn't help it. She didn't just want to watch the moon as she fell asleep, she wanted to be able to stick her head outside and feel the cool breeze on her cheeks, calming her and taking away the stress of the day and that awful Princess training.

So that was what she did. She opened the window, she stuck her head outside and there was the boy.

She had been dreaming about him for some time now, but the problem was he wouldn't stay in her dreams, where dreams were supposed to stay. She would catch him at balls, in the library and in the gardens, but nobody else would be able to see him, and before she could reach him he would be gone again.

"Jack Frost." She said, staring at him, half of her pubescent body dangling out of the window like a horse in a stable. He stared right back at her, his lips twitching and his eyes wide as if he couldn't quite believe what he had just heard. "You're...Jack Frost, right?"

"That's me." He said. His voice sounded hoarse, as if he hadn't used it in a while. "You're Elsa, right? Sorry; Princess Elsa."

Perhaps she was a little distracted by the way he was sat in mid air on a staff, but it took her a couple of seconds to respond.

"Call me Elsa." She said, and he nodded, the corners of his lips moving into a quick grin. They stared at each other a few seconds longer, before she asked. "Would you like to come in?"

"Would you like to come out?" He returned, and she thought she could see some of the surprise wearing off and something lighting up in his eyes. She briefly considered.

"Are you using magic?"

"Yes."

"Do you like magic?"

"I would say so, yes."

She returned his grin for the first time in a while, and began to haul the rest of her body out of the window, behaving more like Anna than she had since her sister had been born.

"Then yes."
