Since Dorothy is a LegacyCharacter,, it's also mentioned that the original "Silver Era" Dorothy married Ozma while all other "Red Era" Dorothy's went back home to Kansas and never returned.

Certain that Darling Charming is her PrinceCharming (well, ''Princess'' Charming) and OneTrueLove, Apple White has taken it upon herself to properly court her. However, Apple doesn't know what to do. She begins studying ''The Art of Wooing'' by Darling's great-uncle Passion Charming. Darling is more than familiar with the book, but she'd rather just skip to going on a date with Apple.

''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/8876572/chapters/20350489 By The Book]]'' is a 3-chapter ''Toys/EverAfterHigh'' fic set after ''Epic Winter''.
