Cafeteria | Afternoon | Thursday | November 25

[fratboybitch.livejournal.com]

It was Thanksgiving Day. It was time for parades, football and food. Currently, Alex was leaning against one of the walls in the kitchen, watching the catering company set up for dinner. There was a shitload of food and his stomach growled just watching.

It was good to be president. He got to delegate everything.

When one of the caterers stepped forward and thrust a plastic wrapped garment bag in his hand, Alex frowned.

"What?"

"Outfits for the dinner," the caterer said. "The contract states that we make and you serve the food. No fulfillment of the contract, no food."

Confused, Alex unzipped the bag and peeked inside. The costume was not cool at all.

"Are you serious?" Alex asked, glaring. "No way!"

"No costumes," the caterer said, already signaling his workers to get ready to package the food up, "no food."

Alex continued glaring at the caterer and the costume. He hated his life.

Oh, how little Elphaba knew.

And how incredibly not equal they were truly treated, back in Oz.

"Yes, I know," Elphaba said. "Hence, vegetarian." She shrugged. "But I suppose it's different for different people."

As in many cases, ignorance was bliss? At least for the two of them.

"Well, you could convince people if you tell them that. If it wasn't today I would say I will try. And maybe I will, once I manage to set that in my mind."

"I don't mean to make people change themselves," Elphaba said. "But if you do want to try to change, I would help. I haven't missed much, from stopping eating meat. There are plenty of great fruits and vegetables in this world. I keep discovering new ones."

She gave Elphaba a warm smile. "I'll let you know then. I will need someone to keep and eye on me."

"And who better than the person you share a room with?" Elphaba said. "Happy Thanksgiving, Zatanna."

"Can't imagine anyone better suited for it", replied Zee as she nodded. "Happy Thanksgiving, Elphaba."
