    Summary

    “What does seasick mean?” 

    “It feels like the ground beneath your feet isn’t steady, darling,” Glinda said. Elphaba realized that was a good way to explain how she felt. It was like the marble floor had suddenly dissolved into water, and now she couldn’t find her footing. Because she had to be wrong. This girl couldn’t possibly be her daughter. Logic went against it, even though she had Glinda's eyes and smile and Elphaba's furrow in her brow.

    It should have been impossible, even though Elphaba's heart was saying otherwise

    Or: After receiving a life changing revelation, Elphaba finds herself accepting a deal to stay in the Emerald City four years post DG. Now it's up to her and Glinda to protect their family while bringing the regime down from the inside.

    Summary

    And there it is again, that damn lack of a filter whenever so much as a single drop of alcohol enters Glinda’s system. That dopey smile, too, that she flashes at Elphaba charmingly, even in her current state. Those big doe eyes opening again to look at her, the slightly crooked smile crinkling at their edges. Instead of answering Elphaba’s question, Glinda giggles. “I like it when you call me that.”

    “Mh?”

    “When you call me pretty girl, it makes me feel all fuzzy.”

     
    Or, Elphaba thinks her feelings for her best friend are unrequited, despite the many times Glinda accidentally tries to get her point across after a few too many drinks. They’re both oblivious to the other’s feelings until it becomes undeniable.

    Summary

    When Elphaba steps into Galinda’s case, everyone, including herself, expects the verdict to be clear. Galinda looks like the perfect suspect: the lack of alibi, the right motive, the absense of love for her late husband. Yet as Elphaba delves deeper, she finds the truth is far more complicated than she thought. The more she investigates, the less certain she is, and the clearer it becomes that appearances are deadly misleading. Elphaba is forced to question everything she thought she knew about justice, morality, and the people she’s trusted most.

    Summary

    Glinda The Good is ill, they were saying. Deathly ill. Agonizing as we speak, even. She might already be dead, for all we know.

    And, though exagerated in many ways, there was some truth to the words. Glinda's illnes had started long ago, too long to pinpoint an exact moment. The very day she was born, perhaps. But the particular trigger, the foundation of said rumors, had originated a little under four years ago. The day half of Glinda's heart died.

    (Gossip, as it turns out, is an extremely useful thing. It can cause riot and peace, reveal truths and break promises. It can even bring people back from the dead. Isn't that wonderful?)

    Or: After years of performance and solitude, Glinda finally breaks. Rumors about Glinda The Good's wellbeing bring Elphaba back home.
