If there is any Aida/Amneris fic out there, I want it. I've been looking and cannot find any.

What I was thinking about when I was at Aida last week was that all the musicals (the two examples in my head being Aida and Wicked) go as such: Girl A loves Boy. Girl A and Girl B are friends. But Boy likes Girl B. Boy, Girl A, and Girl B angst over dilemma, Girl B eventually gets Boy.

Why don't the musicals go this way: Girl A and Girl B are friends. Boy sorta likes Girl A (relationship for status purposes [Wicked] or arranged [Aida] or something), makes her think he likes her a lot. Boy really likes Girl B, and is trying to court her on the side. Boy angsts over whether he picks girl for status or girl for love. Meanwhile, Girl A and Girl B run off together.

Just for a new twist. Because lots of them tend to follow the same pattern.

Or Girl A likes Boy, and is friends with Girl B, who boy likes, although Girl B likes Girl A, and someone ends up sacrificing their own happiness someone else.
I've always wante dto write a story like that.
