    Summary

    “It’s been three weeks since the semester began, and she’s… well, she’s not acting like herself."
    ____________________

    When the first semester at Shiz ends, everyone goes home for the holidays. For most students, this is a welcome break from the business of life at university, a relaxing few weeks spent at home with family and old friends.
    For Elphaba, it means being trapped with her father once more.
    When she returns to Shiz again, she isn't acting like herself. And Galinda doesn't understand it.

    Summary

    As she grew older she learned not to bother explaining herself. She learned that he didn’t want explanations; he didn’t even want apologies, not really. He just wanted to be angry.

    But she didn’t know that. Not then.

    She was only eight. 
    ________

    Elphaba Thropp was born with powerful magic. Dangerous magic, magic that escapes her control whenever she has a nightmare. Her father doesn't understand this - or perhaps he doesn't care to hear her excuses, not when her powers wreck her bedroom, break her things. Does she have no respect?

    Summary

    Galinda lifted her hand slightly, interrupting Elphaba’s panicked flow, mouth snapping shut as she flinched back, and oh, Galinda didn’t like that at all.

    “I - hold on, wait, slow down,” she rushed out, trying to reassure her. “I’m not - I’m not… mad or anything. Just breathe.”

    Elphaba’s head lifted at that. “But - what?”

    “I’m not angry,” Galinda said carefully, slowly sitting down on the edge of Elphaba’s bed. “It’s - it’s fine Elphie, really. It was just a nightmare.”
    ________

    Elphaba has a nightmare and her magic throws her bedroom into chaos. Galinda tries to reassure her that she isn't angry about the mess.

    Summary

    She slapped a hand over her mouth at once, muffling the rest of her cry as it trailed off into a strangled whimper, her body trembling as she shut down her terror. She had gotten better at this, over the last few years, reeling her terror back inside of herself, slamming a lid on the memories, silencing herself upon waking before she even knew where she was or what had happened, before she had even opened her eyes. Silence was safer - silence was vital. She couldn’t let her father hear her.
    ________

    Elphaba Thropp's magic is powerful - too powerful for her to control. Especially while she sleeps, nightmares throwing the room into chaos as her magic lashes out, trying to protect her. All too often, growing up with a father like hers, it does the opposite.
    She learns it's best to suffer in silence.
