    Summary

    "Can I ask you something?" Galinda whispers, pulling back just enough to see her Elphaba nods, cautious but open.
    Galinda hesitates—a pause, careful and quiet. Not from embarrassment, but from care. She knows she’s stepping gently into something delicate.
    "Have you ever…" she begins, clearing her throat, a sharp flutter in her belly, "touched yourself?"
    Elphaba goes still.

    -
    Or - Galinda has sex with Fiyero and doesn’t enjoy it. Elphaba is there to help her sort through what she really wants—and maybe give her exactly what she needs.

    Summary

    “For an alpha,” Galinda murmured, “you get wetter than me.”

    Elphaba sucked in a breath. Galinda laughed softly at her own joke.

    “You’re practically dripping,” she added, almost surprised, leaning forward to inspect the precum.

    Or: It takes a lot to keep an alpha in line—but not for Galinda Upland.

    Summary

    Morrible unfurls Glinda’s mind like a scroll, examining the contents of her memory the way she examined the displayed organs of the first fetal pig she ever dissected. It’s less cohesive than the innards of a pig. That’s the problem with memory bound by emotion. Love is diffuse. It so easily becomes entangled in every aspect of the human experience, regardless of whether the target was physically present or not. Extracting it with any amount of elegance can get…dicey.

    Summary

    Oh, Glinda, she thought, if you had come with me, if you had been brave in my way, when I needed you most—it would be you in an instant, you, always, and not him. 

    Miles apart, Elphaba and Glinda march headfirst into their new lives, even as a strange new resonance is growing between them.

    Summary

    There it was at once—the power, that indescribable quality that drew Galinda to her and repelled her at once, repelled her because it spoke to her of things she did not want to face in herself.

    Elphaba was beautiful, and Galinda told her so, and then, in a sudden ecstasy of tenderness, she leaned forward and kissed her cheek, and then, just to see what it would feel like, kissed her mouth.

    Summary

    “Fiyero won’t sleep with me,” she said. Their bodies were touching now, her naked clavicle against Elphaba’s leather coat. It had a musky female smell to it, amplified, she imagined, by the smell of Elphaba’s skin, her sweat, the sweet oils in her hair. It suggested rough, unspeakable things. If Elphaba had grown into the woman who could wear this coat, what else might she have grown into?

    ”He never touches me, unless we’re in public.” Her lips inches from Elphaba’s ear. “But I don’t want him, Elphie. I want you…”

    Glinda sees Elphaba again the night before her wedding.

    Summary

    At Shiz, Galinda asks Elphaba to cast a bonding spell with her so they'll never be apart. They misunderstand the ancient spell and realize too late that it doesn't enhance emotional ties, but allows them to feel every intense or intentional physical sensation the other experiences. (There's no doubt it's a spell for lovers and not best friends.) To make matters worse, the spell is irreversible. Though they spend decades separated, thanks to the spell, they're never apart. For better or for worse.

    Summary

    “And? Have you found a purpose here?”

    “Well, as I said in my letter, I have more money than I know what to do with, and after meeting all of your lovely little faces, I should like to help you very much indeed.”

    Glinda glanced around, as if trying to find something hidden in their surroundings and coming up short.

    “So long as I can take counsel with your anchoress.”

    That officially dragged proceedings to a halt, all feet stopping in a cluttered shuffle except for Glinda’s pair moving ever forward.

    “With our anchoress?”

    Glinda nodded and put on her most winning smile.

    “The very one,” Glinda said, “Or, rather, I suppose it is possible that you have two? Is the other hiding in the kitchen behind the preservatives?”

    or:

    Summary

    "All of Oz thinks I’m dead.”
    “Not all of Oz,” Glinda said. Something like shame flickered across Elphaba’s green face. “Water, Elphaba, really?”
    “You know the rumors. Apparently I’m so wicked water can melt me.”
    “Well, I can agree that you’re wicked, but the rest of the sentiment is ridiculous.”

    Ten years after the melting, Glinda gets a visitor whom she is less than pleased (and unsurprised) to see.

    Summary

    “I’m fine. Things are going well. I…” Glinda hesitated. She tried not to ever say anything too sappy to Elphaba, who never knew how to accept such things gracefully, but she couldn’t help it. “I miss you,” Glinda admitted softly. Again, the line went silent for a beat too long. Glinda opened her mouth to soften the admission, but before she could, Elphaba’s quiet voice filled her ear.

    “I miss you, too.”

    After graduation, Elphaba and Glinda find themselves in separate cities and therefore apart for the first time in years. They keep in contact through letters, phone calls, and occasional visits. When Elphaba won’t stop being elusive about how she’s faring after being cut off financially, Glinda worries a completely appropriate amount. (She tries to offer a completely appropriate amount of help, too.)

    Summary

    “Shhh. It’s me, it’s… it’s Glinda.” She’s suddenly not sure that’s going to be at all reassuring to Elphaba. “You’re safe. You’re safe, okay? Just sleep. I promise I won’t—” Won’t what? Tell anyone she’s here? Arrest her herself? Hurt her? Take her broom away? Imprison her? Everything that could finish that sentence feels to Glinda like she’s only reminding Elphaba what she could do. “I promise you’re safe.”

    Elphaba crashes onto Glinda’s balcony, and Glinda has to hide Elphaba from the world while she recovers.
