Summary
“Oh. Oz,” Galinda breathes, taking a step forward. “You’re me. Future me.” Grass crunches under her feet. “Do you have any advice for the you of eleven years ago?”
“I will give you only one piece of advice. Any more, and I’m afraid of what might happen,” Glinda tells her, and Galinda sits up straighter, rapt. Glinda’s face hardens, steels. She scowls into the darkness of the woods around them.
“Stay away from Elphaba Thropp.”
Or: On the night of her nineteenth birthday, Galinda bungles a spell and winds up in touch with an older version of herself. Glinda the Good leaves her with a single piece of advice. Galinda has some trouble taking it.
