    Summary

    I couldn’t go. She couldn’t stay.

    That is what Ga - Glinda tells herself the first night without Elphie. She spends it in a guest suite in the Palace, ushered there by Madame Morrible and visited by the Wizard and given any amenity she asks for and many she doesn’t. She thinks about Elphaba. From the moment she’d met her, Glinda had never stopped. And she won’t now. She can’t now.

    or, a history of Glinda and Elphaba.

    Summary

    “Fiyero, darling,” Galinda hums primly, giving an arch look as she emphasizes the term of endearment like a curse, “are you harassing my poor, sweet Elphie?”

    “He's behaving,” she manages to muddle out, though she can't quite stop staring at Galinda’s lips, “As much as Yero ever does, anyway.”

    Fiyero pulls her closer, arm around Elphaba's shoulders. He just has to be difficult. Elphaba can’t manage to bring her eyes away from Galinda’s lips to examine his expression, but she can hear the amused, shit-eating grin on his lips. “Afraid of a little competition, Galinda, darling?”

    __________

    Fiyero thinks Elphie needs to relax, so like a good friend, he sets off Galinda's possessive streak to ensure she'll get thoroughly laid. Because, really, isn't that what friends are for? Meddling in their lesbian ex's relationships?

    Summary

    A brush of the arm, a touch of the hand.

    Galinda likes to be close to people—and Elphaba wants to be closer to her.

    --
    After being girlfriends for a few months, Elphaba knows that touching Galinda is a comfort. She also knows that it makes her aware of parts of herself that have lain dormant the prior twenty years of her life—parts of her that she wouldn't mind exploring.

    Perhaps she still has something to learn. Something that Galinda can teach her.

    The Exposure Therapy sequel that features much more kissing. And other stuff.

    Summary

    A brush of the arm, a touch of the hand.

    Galinda likes to be close to people, Elphaba has noticed.

    --

    After a lifetime of neglect and ostracization, Elphaba is not what you would call 'good at being close to people.' When Galinda notices her new best friend flinches from every touch, she proposes an experiment: exposure therapy, a way to start small and help Elphaba grow more comfortable with herself and others, one touch at a time.

    But what started as an exercise in psychology might just prove to be the basis of something more.

    Summary

    In exile as a political prisoner at a remote estate, Glinda's only companion is a woman named Elphaba, a quiet, exacting servant with a sharp tongue and her defenses high. But what begins as a reluctant cohabitation blossoms, slowly, into something quietly consuming and difficult to name. As time passes, the two women navigate the aching gravity of intimacy—and allow themselves, for the first time, to be seen.
