    Summary

    Then, Elphaba pulls a single poppy free from her bouquet. A tiny thing, so small and so lonely, now clasped in Elphaba’s left forefinger and thumb. Smile shy, glasses tipping down her nose as she holds it forward.

    “For you, Miss Galinda,” she says gently, the words pulling her smile wider to show the shine of her teeth beneath.

    And Galinda cannot help the way her heart stutters in her chest at the delicate gesture. Her hands shake as reaches out, plucks the flower free of Elphaba’s grasp and spins it slowly between her own fingers. The white petals swirl, stem wet and so soft against her skin, and she brings the flower to her nose.

    “Thank you…”

    Summary

    On her best days, Glinda thinks that this is the kind of Oz Elphaba always wanted.

    But only on her best days. Because on her worst days, all she feels is the slow drip of all her drive and enthusiasm fading away. Without anger and ferocity, it’s much easier for despair to consume her. On her worst days, she finds herself aching for Elphaba. The smell of parchment and pine and magic start to fade from the hat, and Glinda aches at the thought of what she’ll do when she loses it entirely.

    All she’s done means nothing if Elphaba can’t be here to see it. It means nothing if Glinda lost her along the way.

    It’s what she deserves. She knows that every day, good and bad. But she yearns for Elphie all the same.

    Summary

    Elphaba’s first friend is… is it unkind to say she doesn’t like the practice of thinking?

    It’s not, actually, because when Elphaba mentions it, Glinda wrinkles her nose and says flatly, “Oh, that. Awful, isn’t it.”

    OR: Glinda time travels to the past.

    Summary

    Glinda Upland swept through the bustling corridor like a golden comet, her perfect curls bouncing in tandem with the high, musical giggle she released at the expense of some lovesick boy’s fumbling attempt at flattery. She was magnetic, every eye following her, every heart yearning for her gaze.

    But not Elphaba Thropp.

    Or so she told herself.
