    Summary

    "Even from her towering vantage point, Elphaba did not miss the redness already marring Glinda’s upper arms, the firmness of the guards’ hand prints leaving red imprints in her skin, or the dark purple bruise that had formed on her right cheek, underneath her eye. Sweet Oz, had the guards punched her?"

    ~~

    When Elphaba sees how rough the guards are with Glinda on the palace tower before she flies away, she decides that she won't leave her friend behind and saves her, taking her along on her journey as a fugitive. Now she can add kidnapping to her ever-growing list of crimes.

    Summary

    “I do prefer it when you do other things to my skin.”

    And once again, Hermione’s brain was gone. Off. In the gutter. Derailing itself with horrifying efficiency.

    No.

    She tore her eyes away, mentally superimposing the image of her grandfather at Christmas – spectacularly pissed, stark bollock naked under a tartan robe, arguing with the angels in the tree. Still not enough. So she added the memory of that one chapter in Magical Maladies and Their Management, the one with close-up photos of Spattergroit pustules. That did the trick.

    Refreshed, centred, pure of thought, she cleared her throat and continued the tour.

    Or: Bellatrix Lestrange is supposed to stop committing crimes. Hermione Granger is supposed to stay impartial. Neither of them is very good at following instructions. There’s a dead man, a collapsing investigation, and a rapidly collapsing sense of professional distance.

    (Works both as a sequel to Of Magic, Mayhem and Poor Decisions and as a standalone if you don’t like slow buildings.)
