Chapter 1: What's the Problem, Baby? (Shrek & Wicked)

Summary:

Originally posted on Three Sentence Ficathon 2025.

Written in response to the prompt: Wicked & Shrek, Elphaba & Fiona (or Shrek), a perfectly acceptable colour

Chapter Text

"How could you possibly ever want to be any other color?" Princess Fiona asked, looking askance at the significantly more magically powerful (but possibly less intelligent?) witch, Elphaba.

"Green is unnatural, and it isolates us from society," Elphaba replied, and something in her voice told Fiona that green had indeed caused problems for this other woman.

"Almost all the best people are green anyway," Fiona said with the certainty of a woman who had fought the world, together with her husband, for the beauty and shade of her own skin.
