    Summary

    “Galinda.”

    Galinda turns at her vanity and smiles softly, as she so often seems to do under Elphaba’s attention. “Yes, Elphie?”

    “I heard the most confusifying rumor today–”

    She erupts in a gasp, whipping to face her roommate so fast that her little stool nearly topples over. “Elphaba Thropp, are you about to gossip with me? Whatever has gotten into you?” She waves the thought away and stands, ready to excitedly flounce around her roommate. “Oh, it doesn’t matter. This calls for a celebratiooon!”

    “Do you know that everyone thinks we’re dating?”

    Galinda freezes in her tracks. “Oh,” she says. “That one.”

    or: everyone thinks gelphie hooked up after the ozdust. they don’t exactly correct them.
