Summary
“Do you remember Madame Morrible and her awful Prop and Ganda department? Well, I figured that I could put them to actual good use. And so I did a little image rehabilification.”
“A little?”
Glinda twirls a strand of blonde hair around her finger, not meeting her eyes. “Tiny. Microscopical. Infinitesimal. Just a whisper of a coordinated multiyear plan involving publicists, historians, theater troupes, and a very spirited group of fans.”
Elphaba blinks.
Glinda smiles sweetly.
“Elphaba,” she says gently, “darling—to come back from a smear campaign, you simply must have good press.”
—
Or, Elphaba spends ten years being dead. Oz spends ten years falling in love with her. She did not request a redemption arc, let alone one so exuberant.- Language:

Summary
What she needed was some sign that Elphaba wanted her. Desired her, in a decidedly unfriendly sense of the word. And Galinda knew all of the signs very well, considering that just about everybody else in Oz wanted her. So all she had to do was find a way to be a little more irresistible than usual.
Or: the seduction fic.

Summary
Glinda’s got a very full to-do list. Democracy needs founding, her closet needs cleaning, and there’s one famously dead Elphaba Thropp on her balcony forcing her to re-evaluate everything she’s ever known about her life.
Or: Post-canon fic wherein Glinda obsesses over what to call her very strange and elusive and lovely relationship with the former Wicked Witch of the West featuring first dates and first times and first homes and first loves.

Summary
There was more writing crowding that same page, curling around the drawing as though desperate to squeeze every last inch of space. Murth hesitated. Did she even want to keep reading?
It was all so—so incredibly juvenile.
Lady Glinda, who for a long time had been the most powerful woman in Oz, who conducted herself with the unshakable poise of someone befitting her station, who had gathered supporters all over the world with wit and charm and a mind sharper than steel—all of that reduced to a teenage girl involved in petty university dramas.
And involved with the Wicked Witch of the West!
How come that secret had never been brought to light, even years after Lady Glinda's death?

Or, Glinda's handmaiden finds her journal, along with several scandals that are hidden inside the pages.- Language:

Summary
Famously private, the early years of Lady Glinda Upland's life and career are shrouded in rumor and speculation, innuendo and outuendo. She has notably refused to speak about her connection to the Wicked Witch of the West.
Nor is a directionless journalist, struggling to reconcile her unknown past with her ambitions as a writer.
On the eve of Lady Glinda's retirement, Nor receives an invitation summoning her to Pertha Hills, the seat of the Upland Arduenna family.
To hear the entire story.
To know the whole truth.--
Eventual Canon Divergence AU. Inspired by The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo.
