    Summary

    Kojiro Nanjo realized there was, perhaps, a small part of him that took his best friend for granted. Because Kaoru had always been there, and Kojiro had come to believe he always would be. Then, in one moment, he thought he’d lost him. Completely. Permanently. Adam had swung his board at Kaoru, and Kojiro had been the one to shatter.

    In the aftermath of the Full Swing Kiss, both Kaoru and Kojiro reflect on life and friendship, love and healing, and what it means when all of that is wrapped up in one another.

    A three-part journey about two dumbasses getting together after a lifetime of already being together.

    Summary

    It was wishful thinking. It had to be the truth. Glinda may not know much but she knew performance, and the more she thought about it the better it fit. Elphaba’s death didn’t make sense. Glinda had seen it with her own eyes and had stupidly believed that was proof it had happened.

    Elphaba’s melting shadow had been wearing the hat. Glinda wasn’t sure of the scientification of melting, but surely either all or none of her clothes should have melted. Surely Elphaba herself shouldn’t have melted. Fiyero’s body was missing, and Elphaba’s hat was in her hands.

    Glinda stared at herself in the mirror. Her eyes were bloodshot, and she realized she must have been crying. She looked crazy. It didn’t matter.

    Elphaba was alive.

    Summary

    'The passion caused by the great and sublime in nature, when those causes operate most powerfully, is astonishment; and astonishment is that state of the soul, in which all its motions are suspended, with some degree of horror… A mode of terror or pain is always the cause of the sublime.'

    Or, -

     

    "If I come out," Hikaru says, "all the way, you promise you won't be scared of me?"
