    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

    The idle thought at the back of Glinda’s mind is that Nessarose never talked about her sister as beautiful.

    She shakes herself to stop those thoughts, knowing she can’t have them, and instead gives Elphaba a smile. “Congratulations,” she says sweetly. “Nessarose never told me how talented you were.”

    “Thank you,” Elphaba says, and takes a sip of her champagne. “So kind of you to come over when there are still reporters watching.”

    “I...I didn’t-”

    Summary

    Glinda Upland, PhD candidate in Sorcery Studies, is writing her dissertation on some old, mysterious magic book called The Grimmerie. The only issue is that she can’t read it. Truthfully, she can’t even open it. No, in a dreadfully unfortunate twist of fate — a joke of destiny, the stars utterly misaligned — only Elphaba Thropp, the grumpified green librarian, can.

    Or: Self-indulgent researcher/librarian au featuring musings on people who make things that are meant to last and also an enemies-to-lovers arc for Wicked’s primary throuple — Glinda, Elphaba, and a magical ancient tome.

    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

    "The mathematics are quite simple," the Wizard continued with the satisfaction of a chess master announcing checkmate. "A marriage uniting both kingdoms, securing succession for Gillikin, and..." His smile turned calculating. "Your daughter's renowned charm could prove invaluable in making my Elphaba more... palatable to our subjects."

    Arranged Marriage AU.

    I watched The Great and Frozen in the same week, and this is the result.
