    Summary

    “Do you remember Madame Morrible and her awful Prop and Ganda department? Well, I figured that I could put them to actual good use. And so I did a little image rehabilification.”

    “A little?”

    Glinda twirls a strand of blonde hair around her finger, not meeting her eyes. “Tiny. Microscopical. Infinitesimal. Just a whisper of a coordinated multiyear plan involving publicists, historians, theater troupes, and a very spirited group of fans.”

    Elphaba blinks.

    Glinda smiles sweetly.

    “Elphaba,” she says gently, “darling—to come back from a smear campaign, you simply must have good press.”


    Or, Elphaba spends ten years being dead. Oz spends ten years falling in love with her. She did not request a redemption arc, let alone one so exuberant.

    Summary

    “I didn’t keep most of the memories. Other people’s memories. I get flashes of big things, births, deaths. Except about you.”

    Carol feels the confusion slip onto her face. Nervousness creeps up her spine again. “Me?”

    “I know everything that anybody has ever thought about you, Carol. Every memory. Every feeling. Helen. Your ex-girlfriends. Your dentist. It’s like I have a Carol encyclopedia in my head.”

    Carol had thought that she was done experiencing fresh horrors. What a nightmare it is to realize that she is not. “Oh, god.” She says.

    “Oh, god,” Zosia agrees.

    After they manage to break Zosia free of the hive, Zosia and Carol try to navigate the field of landmines that is their relationship.

    Subject: Legibility of requisition forms

    Dear Dr. Upland,
    please refrain from filling out your requisition forms with a pink glitter pen. It makes them extremely difficult to read.
    Sincerely,
