    Summary

    Elphaba should not have let it come to this.

    She was not some lovesick fool.

    Not some desperate, sighing, poetry-scrawling schoolgirl, clutching at her chest and dreaming of golden curls that caught the morning light like they’d been spun from the sun itself.

    And yet.

    Here she was.

    Summary

    She goes to bed that night, the Grimmerie open at her side and Elphaba’s hat tucked under her sheets.

    She goes to bed exhausted, grieving, hurt, aching, angry at the world, angry at herself.

    She wakes up, the next morning, five years earlier.

    There’s only one person on her mind.

    ///

    Glinda wakes up years before Elphaba's death with a chance to fix everything.

    Summary

    “What are you doing here?”

    “I should ask that of you. Seriously, Elphie, a religious convent? Who have you become?”

    “A ghost,” said Elphaba. “If I'm anything at all.”

    “You were always a ghost. Even back at Shiz, you were.”


    Or, Glinda visits the cloister of her namesake. Things spiral from there.

    Summary

    “Shhh. It’s me, it’s… it’s Glinda.” She’s suddenly not sure that’s going to be at all reassuring to Elphaba. “You’re safe. You’re safe, okay? Just sleep. I promise I won’t—” Won’t what? Tell anyone she’s here? Arrest her herself? Hurt her? Take her broom away? Imprison her? Everything that could finish that sentence feels to Glinda like she’s only reminding Elphaba what she could do. “I promise you’re safe.”

    Elphaba crashes onto Glinda’s balcony, and Glinda has to hide Elphaba from the world while she recovers.
