    Summary

    Children were tested early, and their aptitudes and affinities were sorted like clothing in a shop. Some fit neatly into one path, while others, like Galinda, straddled two.

    She had been a natural fit for the ruling faction, her charm and wit practically a birthright in the Uplands. Her skill with a blade had secured her a place among the knights, too. But the wizard faction? That had always been out of reach.
    She had shown little to no natural talent for magic, no sparks of the arcane to mark her as special. And yet, standing here now, she felt a pull she couldn’t quite explain.

     

    OR Fantasy AU wherein Galinda is a swordsmaiden.

    When Elphaba reluctantly agrees to help with the charade, Galinda knows they have just six weeks to make their fake relationship convincing. The deadline? The upcoming Emerald City Gala, where her charming ex-fiancé Fiyero awaits.
