Oz with modern technology au pt. 2
Fiyero's parents: Fiyero, son, why did you use the family computer to Google "the government's trying to murder my girlfriend, what do?"
Fiyero: Because the government's trying to murder my girlfriend and I don't what to do about it.
Fiyero's parents: We get that part, what we're trying to ask is why is the government trying to murder your girlfriend?
Fiyero: Oh, right, well you see, she may have had some disagreements with a few people in the Emerald City and said disagreements may have escalated. You'll understand when you meet her.
Elphaba: *heard one stray comment and is now in an hour long rant about corruption and prejudice in Oz's central government during which she has stopped two assassination attempts without pausing her diatribe*
Fiyero: *has his sword out on the off chance that she needs help and is looking at her in total awe the way one would behold a hundred waterfalls*
Fieyro's parents: Yep, it all makes sense now.
