Summary
Pretty, Elphaba thinks. It shocks her, how easily it comes to her, but there’s really no other word for it. No one, in all her life, has ever looked at Elphaba like Galinda is right now. No one, in all her life, has ever looked this happy to see her.
“Welcome to Shiz University, Elphaba Thropp. I have a feeling we’re going to be very good friends.”
or: glinda travels back in time to the day she first met elphaba. and elphaba hasn’t got a clue

So good!!!
Very much a slow burn. Glinda is going THROUGH it, but I’m really glad we had a few chapters of her perspective in the interlude.
Chapter 29 is the confession and its so good, perfect angst, perfect yearning, mwuah
I think morrible killed dillamond. And glinda’s secret is out!! I just hope she tell elphaba not to read aloud from the grimmery
Currently on chapter 36

Summary
Azula pushes Zuko off the roof. Things change.
"She offered her prayers and thanks to the gods, particularly whichever one had decided to take mercy on her brother’s fall. She felt a breeze brush past her bangs, one that sounded like a sigh, and thanked them more fervently. She hesitated, then continued with the request that had been resting heavily upon her heart.
“Please let Mother keep loving me. Please let Zuko keep loving me,” she whispered, not sure who she was asking anymore.
She did not bother asking for her father’s love."

Summary
Dear whoever receives my letter,
When I was asked if I wanted to exchange letters with a complete stranger from Gillikin Country, I was quite excited. You see, whoever you are, I don’t have all that many friends. So, this seemed like a great opportunity.
Perhaps I should briefly introduce myself. My name is Elphaba, I’m 12 years old, and I live in Munchkinland. Before my sister was born, my family and I traveled through Quadling Country for a while, but I don’t remember all that much about it.
I have never been to Gillikin Country though. What is it like? Do you like living there?Personally, I’m not really a fan of Munchkinland. I have this image in my head that there is this place out there, somewhere in Oz, maybe even in Gillikin, where I’ll feel at home. But I haven’t lived anywhere else, so it’s not like I know.
Anyway, what I mean to say is, I would love to learn more about it.Kind regards,
ElphabaOR

SO GOOOOODDD
super cute, i kinda wish the proper identity misunderstanding didn’t get resolved so quickly, cuz angst, but this is still wonderful
No idea how 12yos write so eloquently tho, but that may just be the dysgraphia talking
