    Summary

    The Scarecrow notices when Dorothy can’t sleep. He notices, and he talks to her. About little nothings, at first, gradually building into conversations and familiarity.

    Then one night, as if he's been building up to it, he says, very softly, “She's not as wicked as they say.“

    Summary

    Oscar, or rather the Wizard as he was calling himself, wasn't ready for fatherhood. But when Melena Thropp showed up at his door, he barely had a chance to get two words in, before she was shoving a baby into his arms, and disappearing into the night. And not just any baby. A green baby. He was all prepared to drop the kid off at the next orphanage, when a former employee of the Thropp Household shows up and offers her assistance. Together they set out to raise the child that was unlikely to be accepted by the world, while at the same time building the reputation and dominion of the Great and Powerful Wizard of Oz.

    Summary

    Katara steals four more lessons that week. Four more boys around her age who know the forms but don’t know the desperation of a true fight. They are bad at anticipating her movements and her decisions because Katara will never have the luxury of learning the way they did. She fights dirty, not fair, and their pride doesn’t let them understand that they’re in over their heads until it’s too late.

    They leave her scrapes and bruises and cuts that fuel her healing sessions. When those are done, she goes back to their suite and resumes putting together a combat bending style from stolen pieces and her experience in the wider world.
