Elsaba is the femslash ship between Elsa and Elphaba Thropp from the Frozen and The Wicked Years fandoms.
Canon[]
Elsa and Elphaba have never met, given that they are both from different franchises. Though the two do have many similarities.
Both originate as villains in well known children's stories. Elsa as the titular character from Hans Christian Andersen's Snow Queen and Elphaba as the the Wicked Witch of the West from L. Frank Baum's The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. With both being re-imagined to be heroes and protagonists in reimaginings. Elphaba in the Wicked novel, before it was adapted into a musical, and Elsa in the animated musical movie, that later got adapted to a Broadway musical. In the original Broadway run of Wicked, Idina Menzel played Elphaba, and would later go onto voice Elsa. Their main songs "Defying Gravity" and "Let it Go", are often cited as the most popular songs for each other their stories. With both songs used to signify the characters personal freedoms and changes.
The two were both isolated from many of their peers, Elsa self imposed due to her powers, and Elphaba due to her green skin. In addition, Elphaba is also a magic user, with both of their magic powers being pushed down due to words from their family members. The two are both later seen as villains, due to words from others in power, with many people turning on them as a result.
Elsa and Elphaba are both older sisters. With Elphaba being told to take care of her sister when they go away to school, while Elsa has to reconnect with her sister after years of keeping her distance due to her powers. Both also end up leaving their home country. With Elsa leaving Arendale to be protector of the Enchanted Forest, and Elphaba leaving Oz after she fakes her death.
Fanon[]
The ship started as a result of the two sharing an actor, Idina Menzel. Which made it easy for some fans to notice all the similarities between the two. This led to many fans shipping them either romanticly or platonicly. Sometimes fan create AUs where the two are mixed into a composite character. In Frozen Wicked AUs, Elsa is commonly cast as Elphaba, with fans having Elsaba be a fanon nickname connected to Elphaba redesigns of Elsa.
On AO3, there are currently 2 written works.
