Summary
“He found himself wondering if anyone would notice before the spell was up. It seemed unlikely; there were often stretches where contact was limited between him and his family. Normally, it was not born from necessity but rather strife. And perhaps strife would bleed from this.
He hoped not.”
When a confrontation with a powerful magic user goes awry, Damian is cursed, robbing him of his voice. Or, communicate without a fresh bruise appearing, that is.
What begins as an inconvenience quickly spirals into something far worse, as he finds himself struggling with the mounting realization: no one has noticed. As his silence deepens, so do the rifts with his family. He’s not helped by the many more sinister theories the people around him assume because of his new temperament.
One thing is certain: he really, really hates magic.

Summary
The woman has long blond hair, a straight nose, and thin lips. She looks like a delicate thing, small inside the crater in fetal position. She is entirely naked.
But that’s not the most surprising thing. No, the magic thumping in Elphaba’s veins tells her:
This woman is a god.
OR
Where the Wicked Witch of the West finds an unconscious god in the woods, and everything changes.

Summary
“You should have left Nessa out of this,” Elphaba continues, approaching but still out of sight. “She– she did nothing to you. If you wished to wound me after Fiyero, you could have—”
“That’s not how it happened,” Glinda interrupts suddenly. She’s trembling. “You don’t understand.”
“Oh?” Elphaba says, but she doesn’t sound particularly curious, not really. Righteous anger. Always so righteous, and right for it. “What don’t I understand? Tell me.”
Glinda opens her mouth, then closes it. There’s so much she could say. So much she wants to, but it all feels out of reach. She can’t help but think it pitiful really, that when she really needs her words, she can’t find them, but before a crowd of thousands, the lies pour from her like tears.
“You should get out of here, Elphaba,” she tells her instead. “Before someone discoverates you. Please.” She leaves the chocolate for Nessa and scoops up her useless, useless wand. “We both should.”
(Or, a re-write of the cat fight scene with a twist. Crowlinda beloved.)
