The Great and Powerful Trixie, homeless, bitless, friendless, has been spirited away from her situation to the undecorated aerie of Gilda. The two are complete strangers to one another, knowing only that they are a match for each other. Now, inside the ramshackle redoubt of the arrogant griffin, both will see just how different they can be, and how much of a match it makes them.
(A challenge to myself, I sat down and wrote a fic all at once. It's short, and kind of quick. But it hits a lot of the elements I've always wanted to get to, especially Trixie being (what I named) Roani, inspired by the fic "Gypsies, Tramps and Thieves." Incidentally, the Romani is as accurate as I can make it, with modifications for use in Equestria, and yes, Gilda's name DOES contain Latin/Greek primary elements with Gaelic conventions; think of the Griffin Kingdom as akin to Roman England, though more England than Roman.)
