    Summary

    Glinda feels suddenly very brave and very stupid. “Do you not want to kiss me because you actually don’t want to or because you think you’re being noble?”

    Elphaba is quiet for so long that Glinda becomes convinced she didn’t actually ask that question aloud. Instead of answering, the green woman looks out over the ink-dark harbor, the sea beyond it. “We’re leaving again tomorrow.”

    “Okay? And what about tonight?”
    _________

    Or: Glinda's a bartender in a harbour town and Elphaba's a sailor at the whim of the sea. A situationship ensues (they're actually in love).

    Summary

    "And who are you, exactly?"

    Galinda pushed her glasses up her nose. "Upland. Galinda Upland," she said, channeling every ounce of friendly energy she could. Elphaba did not seem like the type to warm up easily, and Galinda could not leave without her story. "I'm with OzCo Magazine."

    "Hmm," Elphaba rounded her desk and sat back in her chair, folding her hands under her chin to study Galinda. "Shame. I thought you were a journalist."

    "I'm a reporter," Galinda corrected, though sweetly. "That's why I'm here. To get your side of the story."

    OR, Galinda is Supergirl, and Elphaba moves to National City to take over her father's disgraced company.

    Summary

    “Hey there.”

    Elphaba isn’t superstitious; she doesn’t believe in magic or ghosts or the supernatural; she has always been wary of organized religion; she’s never understood the people who believe in fate. Some might say it’s cynical. But Elphaba just doesn’t get it - she likes logic and reason and believes that everything can be explained.

    So the thump in her chest at the voice is confusing to her. The sudden sense that the world has shifted on its axis is confusing.

    Summary

    “I have a package for Galinda Upland.”

    “It’s just Glinda,” she corrects reflexively.

    “Well.” The voice on the other side of the buzzer pauses. “Unless there is a Galinda living in apartment 3C, I’m going to assume this is for you.”

    “Bold of you.”

    A huff. “Glinda Upland, can you please just buzz me up so I can do my job?”
    _________

    Or: Glinda's infatuated with a hot and mysterious bike messenger who keeps delivering things to her apartment.
