No... NO!!!

Did I read the incantation wrong? That can't be... it felt right, it was the right one... I know it was! Then why am I here on this-this beach!? Chistery... the castle... How could I make everything disappear?! Time is running out and I have to find him!

A transportation spell perhaps? Maybe... Could be the fact that I wanted

*...she's green. that's a new one.*

You didn't make everything disappear.

[witchofthe_west]

*Yeah well... what can she do? Carefully putting some distance between the two of them*

So... what is this place then? Are we in Oz? *snappy questions from a snappy lady...*

[ceres_mongrel]

*hey, it's not his fault her mom drank Green Elixir and had an affair with the Wizard--oops, did I just say that out loud?*

I dunno what Oz it, but they call this place the Island.

[witchofthe_west]

*Yes you did.... thank goodness she didn't hear that or you would be falling under a spell by now!*

That's what I've heard from the other inhabitants here... and that you can't leave at your own free will.

A tropical prison... how nice.

[ceres_mongrel]

*...not good.*

*shrug* It's just another prison for me. What's your name?

[witchofthe_west]

*Not really but he's safe right now... so it's all good*

... Elphaba. And you?

So you were a prisoner before coming here?

[ceres_mongrel]

Riki. And you could say that, even if some people wouldn't.

[witchofthe_west]

I'm not 'some people' if you hadn't noticed...

[ceres_mongrel]

That hat gave you away.

[witchofthe_west]

*eyes glance up at the brim of her hat and chuckles under her breath*

Just the hat?

[ceres_mongrel]

I don't judge people on what they look like.

[witchofthe_west]

Really? *finds that very hard to believe*

It's very rare to find anyone who would say that... especially in Oz.

[ceres_mongrel]

Where I'm from people judge more based on other things. Mostly birth and status before appearance.

[witchofthe_west]

Our worlds are not that much different... I just happen to be the exception since people seem fixated on my verdigris. I was born into a well to-do family and that status did nothing to stop people from judging me.

[ceres_mongrel]

*shrug* Then they're small-minded idiots. All worlds have those, I think.

[witchofthe_west]

Well... they are munchkins... *shrugs at her little joke*

So Riki... how long have you been here? I've met two others who have been here for about a year or even longer.
