You wished your entire life to find a place over the rainbow. A place where you weren't discarded or ignored...A place where you were loved and valued. A bright dreamy place...Technicolor and fantastical...So when you fell into Oz and you found that place was real you weren't quite sure what to do!

And you made friends there like you always dreamed of...Tender, devoted, sweet friends...Odd sure...But better than any you'd had back home. On your way to meet the wizard you met the scarecrow...Patchwork skin and straw blond hair. Clumsy and earnest hoping for a brain. Then the tin man, silver metallic skin, lovely dreamboat blue eyes, romantic and poetic desiring a heart. And then the lion, soft fur and a mane full of a thousand curls and a tail that never stopped wagging dramatic and dreaming of being a king of the forest needing courage...

And the four of you travelled to the emerald city, melted the Wicked Witch of the West together, took her broomstick to the wizard and got your rewards...

Truly it was in them all along. The scarecrow was a great thinker and leader. The tin man already sweet and full of love. The lion already brave and noble...Now they simply believed it themselves...But your wish couldn't be granted like that.

You're wish was complicated. You wanted to go home...At least you thought you did. Some of Oz...It's witches and dark forests and angry spirits frightened you terribly. And you weren't sure what was going on back home on the farm...But when you went back to your black and white farm girl life...Alone and friendless and dismissed...Would you think of Oz? Cry for you darling friends and their techinicolor world you'd never see again?

You didn't know what to think...

But when the wizard's balloon went off without you. When your chance to go back to Kansas went away...You're friends were there wiping your tears and hugging you. The tinman had started crying with you gently kisses your cheek. "Please...stay with us? It's fate...You're meant to stay with us..." He weeps. Scarecrow hugs you tighter and kisses your other cheek. "Anyone with a brain can see it...You're meant to stay here with us and help us run Oz..." The lion is shamelessly purring and wagging his tail, thrilled your staying and kisses your forehead his tail wrapping around your waist. "Come on...You scared us...Thinking you were really going away!"
