    Summary

    In another world, another time, there was no death. It would all be a farce, though she wouldn’t have known it. Her grief would have been real and vulnerable and raw. No, one mourns the Wicked.

    In this world, the tragedy is all too real: her beloved is dead. But Glinda will not grieve for that which she does not accept to be permanent.

    A faked death mourned, a real death refused. What a twisted world Oz is.

    Or:
    What if Elphaba actually died at the end of Wicked? Follow Glinda in her journey to bring her back to life.

    Summary

    “Do you ever think,” she asked softly, “that it’s strange how simple forever can look?”

    When the Eminent Thropp brings her sister to Shiz University, she expects politics and polite introductions. She does not expect Galinda Upland—sunlit, fearless, and declaring her intent to marry her before lunch. What begins as a scandal becomes a love story of impossible ease: tea shared, promises traded, and a future built one stolen morning at a time.

    Summary

    She didn’t even really ask a question when she told Elphaba what she’d done, when she told her about the house, the biggest purchase of her life: a safe place; a place where, if she’s horrendibly honest, she imagines that maybe they could grow old. Galinda never saw the appeal of it before, of the ache in her bones or the aging lines on her face.

    But looking in the mirror lately, they’re there— and she doesn’t hate it. She doesn’t hate knowing she’s changed. That they both have.

    (Or, a post-canon fix-it. Elphaba comes back to her. Galinda buys them a house. The eroticism of a gentle life.)

    Summary

    “Your son is perfectly perfect,” Glinda whispers softly.

    “When he’s sleeping, maybe,” Elphaba teases. Still, her green eyes are soft, glancing at him.

    “Oh, always,” Glinda argues, hand cupping Liir’s soft, round cheek. He’s so precisely and exactly like Elphaba. “Always, always.”

    Or: Completely self-indulgent family fluff, featuring Gelphie as gay moms, Fiyero as a very involved third-wheel father, and, of course, everyone’s best boy Liir.

    Summary

    Elphaba smiled, tilting Galinda’s head up. “Thank you for caring.”

    “You don’t have to thank me for that. It’s not hard to do.”

    Elphaba looked deep into her eyes, trying to express how appreciative she was for Galinda’s attentiveness. “Yeah, I do. I want you to know that it means everything to me.”

    “Well, you mean everything to me, so we’re even.”

    ———

    Or Modern Gelphie AU where a very shy Elphaba meets Galinda during finals seasons at Shiz and agrees to tutor her in exchange for popularity lessons, and along the way Elphaba learns what it means to be loved the correct way.
