"Hello, everyone, and welcome to another exciting episode of Nia's Q % A with Wicked characters!" Nia exclaimed, brushing dust off of her blue skirt.
"Are all of the questions going to be about the wedding?" Elphaba asked in a tired voice.
"Well, not all of them. Probably a good 95% of them are," Nia chuckled. Elphaba groaned and slumped back in her seat. "Fine! Let's just get them over with!" she huffed.
"Our first review is from Elphaba'sGirl, who says, Hihi again my wicked friends. Yero, really? I only wanted a little piece of your hair *Holds fingers very close together to demonstrate* Like, that much! Glinda, how high are your heels currently? Frex, you know, I'm going to compliment you. I mean, it must take some talent to be as evil as you are Boq, would you prefer to be turned into tin, copper, or gold? Melena, tell me a story about little Elphie! Okay guys. Ttfn. (And now Dorothy knows slang...) Tadios."
"I don't like it when people cut my hair!" Fiyero protested.
"Well, since we have already established that I can't always walk in high heals, I am now currently wearing sparkly pink flats," Glinda said, taking off one of her shoes to show everyone.
"Nia, I protest!" Frex shouted, pronouncing her name with a long 'i'.
"That's not my name!" Nia shouted. "Repeat after me, 'knee'," Nia said, stepping slower to Frex.
"Knee…" Frex repeated, a scared look taking over his face. As soon as the word left Frex's lips, Nia kicked Frex in the knee.
"AHH!" he exclaimed.
"That's it!" Nia exclaimed in triumph as the audience roared with laughter. "Nee-uh!"
"Nia!" Frex repeated correctly.
"That's better," Nia said as she went back to her seat.
"Gold, probably," Boq answered.
"Well, there was this one time when Elphaba was about three years old…" Melena started.
"Mama!" Elphaba exclaimed.
"Shhh! Elphaba, it's story time," Nia said, bringing her knees up to her chest.
"And she was in the gardens in the back of the Governor's mansion. She was just sitting in the fields picking flowers. When she came back, she handed the flowers to me."
"AWWW!" cried the audience.
"That was beautiful! Now, we have MyVisionIsDying, who says, Yes, I got that high five! Umm... Glinda, I hate makeovers... What do you think of that? Oh and I also hate pink and dresses, and everything girly. *Waits for Glinda's reaction*"
Glinda looked like she had just witnessed a murder. "Well… I… I have no comment," she said, crossing her arms.
"Now we have snoozinghamster, who says, Elphie and Glinda can u reenact the fight call. And the 'Well, we can't all come and go by bubble!' I love this story!"
"Fight call?" Elphaba asked.
"When you and Glinda fight after the… you know," Nia explained.
"That's what they call it?" Glinda asked.
"In the musical."
"Well… okay," Elphaba said as she and Glinda stood up.
"I wanted something to remember her by! All that was left of her were those shoes, and now, that retched little farm girl has walked off with them! So, I would appreciate some time alone to say goodbye to my sister. Nessa… Nessa, please, forgive me!" Elphaba recited. Nessa and Dorothy both had confused facial expressions.
"And what exactly have you been doing besides riding around on that filthy old thing?" Glinda said, skipping over a bunch of lines.
Elphaba looked confused, but continued, "Well, we can't all come and go by bubble!" Glinda bit back her urge to laugh, but the audience didn't. "Whose invention was that? The Wizard's? Of course, even if it wasn't, I'm sure he'd still take credit for it!"
"Well, a lot of us are taking things that don't belong to us, aren't we?"
"Now, wait just a clock tick! I know it's difficult for that blissful, blonde brain of yours to comprehend that someone like him could actually chose someone like me! But it's happened! It's real! And you can wave that ridiculous wand all you want! You can't change it! He doesn't belong to you! He doesn't love you and he never did! He loves me!"
"Are they talking about me?" Fiyero interrupted.
Instead of answering, Glinda stage-slapped Elphaba. Elphaba let out her famous witch crackle. "Feel better?"
"Yes, I do!"
"Good!" It was Elphaba's turn to stage-slap Glinda. "So do I!"
"Wand-Fu!" Nia shouted. Everyone slowly turned their heads to face her. "Sorry. Please continue," she said, blushing.
"I think that's it!" Glinda said, slumping back into her chair. Elphaba did the same.
"Great!" Nia exclaimed. "Now we have WickedisWicked, who is reviewing as a Guest. Welcome! First off I want to say this interview is AMAZING! I was seriously laughing so hard I cried. And I only have one question and (surprisingly) it's for Melena. Why in all of Oz did you marry Frex in the first place? Oh, and can I please have a signed broom for Elphaba too?"
"Two words, arranged marriage," Melena said sadly.
"Signed brooms for everyone!" Nia shouted as the bucket of brooms appeared next to her.
"Oh, great!" Elphaba groaned.
"Next, we welcome back theHAPPYobsessedwickedfan3611. Hi! She says, AHHHHHhhhHHHhHHKHhhHHHhhHHHHHHHhhhHHHhhhhhhHZZHHHh hhhHHHhhHHHhhhhHHHHhhhHHHhhHHHHhhHHHhhHHhhHHH! I MISSED THE LAST EPISODE *sits down and cries* Ahem, now that that's over with... *takes broom and flies onstage*"
"Are you ever going to just sit in the audience?" Nessa asked.
"No, and I did last episode when I forgot to review!" Obsessed retorted as she went to take her usual place on Elphaba's lap.
"Okay, now questions. Elphie do you like your cake?"
"I loved it! I didn't think that you could actually pull it off!" Elphaba smiled.
"Fiyero: Do you like steamed artichokes?"
"Well, Elphaba does look very cute when she gets angry," Fiyero smirked.
"Shut up!" Elphaba scolded him.
"Glinda: Do you like steamed artichokes?"
"I never really liked vegetables," Glinda answered.
"Nessa: After you got your ruby slippers and could walk, did u ever miss your chair?"
"Of course not! I was so glad to ditch that sorry chair with wheels behind!" Nessa answered.
"Glinda: When are u going to get a boyfriend?"
"I don't know!" Glinda sobbed. Nia gingerly handed her the box of tissues.
"Now we have snoozinghamster again, who says Awwww. Great chapter. Loved the wedding. I have a couple of questions for you. They are both kinda for Nessa. How do you feel about the fact that in one fic, Elphie has to kill you to save her, Yero and Glin from you and Morrible? Whilst in another fic, Morrible is forcing Boq into killing Yero. Everyone is frozen bar you. And you save Yero's life, but you die. (Which is really sad.) So here have a cupcake! But, yeh. And Elphie can you sing I'm not that girl and Glinda sing the reprise!"
The cupcake appeared in Nessa's lap before she could answer. "Well… I… die?" she asked. Nia slowly nodded her head, having read the stories. "I think you know the answer to that," Nessa said as she ate the cupcake.
Elphaba took a deep breath and began to sing, again.
"Hands touch, eyes meet
Sudden silence, sudden heat
Hearts leap in a giddy whirl
He could be that boy
But I'm not that girl
Don't dream too far
Don't lose sight of who you are
Don't remember that rush of joy
He could be that boy
I'm not that girl
Ev'ry so often we long to steal
To the land of what-might-have-been
But that doesn't soften the ache we feel
When reality sets back in
Blithe smile, lithe limb
She who's winsome, she wins him
Gold hair with a gentle curl
That's the girl he chose
And Heaven knows
I'm not that girl
Don't wish, don't start
Wishing only wounds the heart
I wasn't born for the rose and the pearl
There's a girl I know
He loves her so
I'm not that girl..."
As Elphaba sat down, Glinda huffed and stood up to ring the reprise.
"Don't wish, don't start
Wishing only wounds the heart,
There's a girl I know
He loves her so
I'm not that girl"
"That was beautiful," Nia complemented them. "Now we have Galindarules – stop smirking, Glinda! – again. She says, Its me again and i still hate Frex and Madame Morrible, mostly Frex because after of what he did to her I wish Nia could kill him hopefully. He is a stupid idiot! Why did u slap Elphaba in the face!? I just hate you and you are ugly. And Morrible is really horrible! And you do look like a fish! Why did u even invite them in the first place NIA!?"
"First of all," Nia defended herself, "Frex," she pointed at the hated man, "was not my idea! And Morrible, I have no idea why she was there."
"No one told me that I couldn't come, so I did!" Morrible said.
"We didn't think that we had to tell you not to come," Glinda said.
"Someone had to preform the wedding ceremony!" Frex shouted.
"He's got a good point!" Nia admitted.
"I didn't mean to slap Elphaba…"
"Lies!" Elphaba shouted.
"Truths!" Frex retorted. "I was just so full of anger. I'm sorry, Fabala."
Elphaba's face slowly softened. "Can we please get to the next question?"
"Sure, now we have Mad-Idina-Fan98. She says, Oh my Oz that was the most beautiful wedding ever. And Elphie you were themost gorgeous bride. Yero you look so happy. I can't believe I got to go toit. Glin you did amazing. Everyone looked amazing. Great job Nia, you alsolooked amazing. Wow Frex did the service well I suppose they did make vows were absolutely beautiful. Ok now we need some Fiyeraba but we seriously do. Ok let's see if I can come up with anyquestions. Elphie how does it feel to be married? Do you plan on havingchildren soon? That question also goes for Yero. Glin what was it likewatching your best friend get married? Melena and wizard how was it seeingyour daughter get married? That father daughter dance was lovely and youmelted my heart again well done. Nessa are you happy for your sister? Do youhope to get married someday? Ok group question. What was your favorite partof the wedding? Ok that's enough for now. Wow all wedding related hahaha. Do Iget my signed broom and hug now oh wait I got my hug but what about my broom?Amazifying wedding and I can't wait for your answers."
"It feels wonderful!" Elphaba said, staring deep into Fiyero's eyes.
"Babies? Already?" Nessa asked.
Fiyero began to shift in his seat. Elphaba knew exactly what he was thinking. "You want children already? Fiyero, we haven't even been married a week!"
"Watching Elphie get married was amazing. Honestly, people, it's like you think that I'm jealous or something!"
"I am so happy for Elphaba and Fiyero," Melena said. The Wizard nodded in agreement.
"Of course I'm happy for Fabala! I'm with Glinda on this one. Why do people think that I wouldn't be happy for her?" No one answered, causing Nessa's face to turn a bright shade of red. "FINE!" she shouted. "And I would like to be married someday," she added calming down.
"The after-party!" Fiyero exclaimed.
"Reception," Elphaba corrected. Fiyero stuck his tongue out at her.
"Dancing!" Glinda said.
"Catching the bouquet of flowers," Nessa commented.
"Dancing with Elphaba," the Wizard said.
"Being the flower girl!" Nia chirped.
"Filming everything!" Dorothy said, upset that she didn't get a question in a while.
"Being with Fabala!" Melena whispered.
"Being the best man!" Boq chimed.
"The actual ceremony," Elphaba said, blushing.
"Aw!" Nia said, placing her right hand over her heart. "That's all the time we have for today, everyone. Keep those reviews coming! See you at the next installment of Nia's Q % A with Wicked Characters! Oh, and before I forget, don't forget to read and review Psycho Therapy by ExoticPeachBlossom. She's writing me in as Elphaba's daughter! I can't wait! " The lights dimmed as the episode ended.
Special thanks to Elphaba'sGirl, MyVisionIsDying, WickedisWicked, snoozinghamster, theHAPPYobsessedwickedfan3611, Galindarules, and Mad-Idina-Fan98. Flying brooms for all of you!
