    Summary

    It’s five months after the worst day of Glinda’s life that she wakes from one terrible nightmare into a new one. It’s the barest whisper of a sound, the smallest flicker of a shadow in the low light, and Glinda springs awake.

    “Elphie?”

    Or: Elphaba is alive. She and Glinda have some stuff to work out.

    Summary

    “I just wanted to say I had absolutely nothing to do with the changes. I mean honestly, when they asked for recommendations I asked if I could be alone,” Galinda starts, gesticulating as she talks, launching into something that can only generously be described as a ramble.

    More bewildered than anything, Elphaba can’t do anything but watch as words tumble forth from Galinda’s mouth, as she goes on and on, probably further attempting to absolve herself of any blame.

    Suddenly, Elphaba remembers that she hasn’t actually seen who her roommate is…

    And she’s got a sneaking suspicion that her assignment is standing right in front of her.

    (Or: stage management should be easy for Elphaba, but the actors seem to go out of their way to make it difficult— namely Galinda Upland, her new roommate, hellbent on disrupting every inch of Elphaba’s carefully-laid routine.)

    (Or or: sometimes you need enrichment time (extroverts adopting you) in your enclosure (stagemanaging a national tour))

    Summary

    “I hear you’ve been looking for me,” Elphaba said.

    “Well, yeah,” Glinda huffed. “I know water doesn’t fucking hurt you, Elphie. I would’ve killed you by now if it did.”

    She thought of the wet warmth of her mouth on Elphaba’s skin, Elphaba’s sticky face popping up from between her legs, taking Elphaba’s fingers into her mouth, replacing one kind of wetness with another. She thought of her tears at Elphaba’s bare back. Elphaba ducked her head, the brim of her hat covering everything above the tip of her nose. Glinda’s chest felt like it was sinking in.

    “Come inside before somebody sees you,” she said. “Quickly.”

    Summary

    She didn’t even really ask a question when she told Elphaba what she’d done, when she told her about the house, the biggest purchase of her life: a safe place; a place where, if she’s horrendibly honest, she imagines that maybe they could grow old. Galinda never saw the appeal of it before, of the ache in her bones or the aging lines on her face.

    But looking in the mirror lately, they’re there— and she doesn’t hate it. She doesn’t hate knowing she’s changed. That they both have.

    (Or, a post-canon fix-it. Elphaba comes back to her. Galinda buys them a house. The eroticism of a gentle life.)
