    Summary

    “Or perhaps because a novelist can’t write every scene, perhaps when the lights were out and the novelist was out having a smoke in the back alley, the girls had sex in the bed on the way to the Emerald City. I wanted to propose this possibility, but I did not want to make a declarative statement about [it]...”

    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.

     

    or, months after the Witch's death, Glinda sets out to look for her again
