    Summary

    Glinda wasn’t really sure what made her do it. All she knew was that she hung up the phone to silence her mother’s screams, took a right at an intersection where she normally turned left, and found herself in front of a tattoo shop.
    The sign read “Oz’s Oddities” in that classic font that every tattoo studio seemed to use. A bit cliche, but it had caught her eye. She’d never gotten a tattoo before. The pain had been a slight deterrent, but more than anything it was the threat of being cut off from her parents’ money if she ever came home with anything more than simple earlobe piercings.

    But now she was cut off. Her ex was dragging her name through the mud to all their friends, she’d graduated college, and found herself alone with no job, a lease ending in two weeks, and no more allowance.

    What else did she have to lose?

    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.

    Summary

    “As your wife,” Yor repeated, and her voice grew firm as it picked up in volume. She tore her eyes up from the spot they’d been glaring at on the floor. She hurriedly traveled her gaze up Loid’s impressive physique, settling instead on his face. A flush was setting into his fair skin, giving his cheeks and nose a pinkish glow. His blue eyes bore into Yor’s, ever-patiently waiting for her to continue. Licking her lips, Yor told him, “It’s my duty to take care of you.”

    Or,

    After catching a rubber bullet for Nightfall, Twilight scores some heavy bruising. Later in the evening, Yor, wrapped up in her sad overthinking, catches sight of Loid exiting the bathroom. Stunned and concerned, Yor tries her best to be a good wife, and tends to Loid's battle scars.

    Summary

    The woman bit her lip and snarled, “I’m not here to play games, Agent Twilight.”

    There was a short pause as Twilight glared up at her, pondering his next move. He decided to test her limits. Maybe he could buy some time. He switched his look to a softer gaze, “Has anyone ever told you how beautiful your eyes are?”

    The woman’s face bloomed with crimson. She drew the blade closer to his skin, “Has anyone ever told you to shut the hell up?”

    Summary

    “Excuse me… Erm, ma’am?”

    “...O-Oh! Um, yes? What is it?” The assassin felt a soft sweat on her upper brow; what did this random man want from her?

    The man gives a sheepish smile in response, looking down softly.

    “Well… I noticed how pretty you were and I… Well I couldn’t help but want to ask for your name.”

    -----

    Loid is worried Yor is having second thoughts and has a heart-to-heart with his wife.
