Summary
“Elphaba,” Glinda said, her jaw bobbing up and down uselessly. “What did you do?”
She said it as more of a statement than a question because she knew. She could see it quite plainly, the Wizard’s body slumped over on the cold marble floor.
“I didn’t mean to,” Elphaba said. “I mean, I kind of wanted to, but I didn’t know what I was doing.”
Glinda’s eyes narrowed into something judgmental, but honestly not nearly angry enough considering Elphaba had just committed a murder, an assassination at that–-but suddenly there were footsteps. Elphaba paused like a deer in headlights, but Glinda grabbed the Wizard’s feet and dragged him quickly back over to the perch behind the curtain.
“Don’t just stand there. Help me!”
OR
what if elphaba accidentally killed the wizard when she went to free the monkeys lmao

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
It’s a tombstone, and a beautiful one, though the Ozmapolitan fails to acknowledge the craftsmanship when it releases its next issue with a fat, bold headline stamped across the top that reads Mystery in Mourning. There’s no name anywhere on it, the article stresses in the first paragraph on the front page. No marker to identify the body interred underneath, only poppies etched into the bevel and pediment. And so, speculation abounds.
Or: Post-canon fic wherein Glinda erects a grave for a green witch that never actually died in the first place. One thing leads to another.
Or, or: Sad cemetery smut with a helluva lot of religious overtones

Summary
Elphaba’s lucid dreams allow her to hope for things that, by day, she would never even consider a possibility.
No longer being green.
Being loved for who she is.
Things like that. Impossible things.
(Also repeatedly fucking Galinda, but that’s not quite as poetic.)

Summary
"You've never been kissed." As she keeps speaking, Galinda finds a giddiness rising within her. It's much easier to offer help rather than ask for it, after all. "I can help you practice, too! For whenever you decide to date someone!"
Another stretch of silence, but Galinda is steadily regaining her usual confidence. Because had she not just been wishing for an acceptable reason to kiss her best friend? And if she's helping Elphaba with all of this, as well—well, that's so many birds with so few stones!
or
Galinda needs practice doing something she's never tried before. Who better to ask for help than her best friend? But Galinda quickly discovers the truth about what--and who--she really wants.

"Glinda didn’t know what made her do it, but she reached out for Elphaba’s face, her fingers digging into the flesh just beneath her ears, and pulled Elphaba those last few centimeters to kiss her with all the ferocity of throwing the first punch, holding her there, needing her there."

nessa rolled into the doorway, looked at elphaba’s outfit, and raised an eyebrow. “are you going out with your tradwife again?”
“she’s not a—” elphaba stammered. glinda kind of was a tradwife. “she’s not my—” she cleared her throat. “we’re not going out. it’s—” she felt herself blushing and decided to quit while she was ahead.
when nessa shows elphaba a tiktok from the conservative and painfully heterosexual influencer @glindathegoodwife, elphaba can only roll her eyes. but when elphaba runs into glinda in a bookstore just a few days later, the last thing she expects is to leave with a recipe and a new friend.

Summary
I couldn’t go. She couldn’t stay.
That is what Ga - Glinda tells herself the first night without Elphie. She spends it in a guest suite in the Palace, ushered there by Madame Morrible and visited by the Wizard and given any amenity she asks for and many she doesn’t. She thinks about Elphaba. From the moment she’d met her, Glinda had never stopped. And she won’t now. She can’t now.
or, a history of Glinda and Elphaba.

Summary
“Fiyero, darling,” Galinda hums primly, giving an arch look as she emphasizes the term of endearment like a curse, “are you harassing my poor, sweet Elphie?”
“He's behaving,” she manages to muddle out, though she can't quite stop staring at Galinda’s lips, “As much as Yero ever does, anyway.”
Fiyero pulls her closer, arm around Elphaba's shoulders. He just has to be difficult. Elphaba can’t manage to bring her eyes away from Galinda’s lips to examine his expression, but she can hear the amused, shit-eating grin on his lips. “Afraid of a little competition, Galinda, darling?”
__________
Fiyero thinks Elphie needs to relax, so like a good friend, he sets off Galinda's possessive streak to ensure she'll get thoroughly laid. Because, really, isn't that what friends are for? Meddling in their lesbian ex's relationships?

A brush of the arm, a touch of the hand.

Something that Galinda can teach her.

Summary
A brush of the arm, a touch of the hand.
Galinda likes to be close to people, Elphaba has noticed.
--
After a lifetime of neglect and ostracization, Elphaba is not what you would call 'good at being close to people.' When Galinda notices her new best friend flinches from every touch, she proposes an experiment: exposure therapy, a way to start small and help Elphaba grow more comfortable with herself and others, one touch at a time.
But what started as an exercise in psychology might just prove to be the basis of something more.

Summary
“You know, we haven’t seen snow together in almost ten years?” she says, pressing her lips to Elphaba’s shoulder.
Elphaba nods, slow, measured. Thoughtful. “Snow at Shiz was different, though.”
Galinda knows what she means. It was softer, somehow. It didn’t feel nearly as cold, even though it most certainly reached lower temperatures.
It felt wilder back then—life—more fun, and the urge to throw snowballs at each other hadn’t quite curtailed. Galinda smiles at the memory of Pfannee accidentally taking one to the face before he tackled ShenShen onto the ground. Elphaba had laughed and laughed; in response, Galinda kissed her, her warm mouth on Elphaba’s suddenly timid lips, while their friends whooped and hollered.
It feels too long ago. Out of reach.
Maybe— maybe they were just different. Still taken by how every snowflake looks different if you catch them beneath a magnifying glass.
“I was going to surprise you and make tomato soup,” Elphaba says after a moment.
(Or, winter over the ridge at the farmhouse.)

Summary
*
Galinda is an ignorant, sheltered girl who only has one thing left to do to ensure she has a perfect life: present as an omega. Her determination remains unwaivered as she enters her college years while somehow remaining unpresented, but that may change when she meets her new roommate. Not only is this girl's skin color far more vegetable-like than anyone Galinda has ever met before, but... she also happens to have the one thing Galinda doesn't.
In a world where omegas are already seen as less than, it seems like a cruel joke played by the universe to have the girl with green skin present as one at fourteen. And when Elphaba is forced to room with a girl who's obsessed with having the same trait that aided in making her teenage years miserable? Well, she wonders how she will manage to keep her sanity as she learns to coexist with this prissy, stuck up blonde who can't seem to handle the fact that she's just a beta.
The thing is... Galinda is far too determined for anyone's good. What happens when her plan to finally present as an omega goes terribly awry and results in the complete opposite?
OR an exploration of Galinda's comphet using a/b/o dynamics
