    Summary

    "Can you take her?" Keyleth blurts out, because if she doesn't ask now she'll never ask. "She needs a home. Someone who can help her understand. There's no one else I would trust."

    "You know I would in a heartbeat."

    But there's something in Vex's eyes, something in the weight of her words, that gives away the ranger's next words before they even leave her lips- "But you know that she already has a home."

    or, i started thinking about "what if laudna grew up in whitestone in its glory" and "what if imogen had a support system that didn't give up on her when she was little" and i also wanted to write a love letter to vex and kiki AND imodna

    Summary

    Having a girlfriend is funny. It makes you do funny things. Funny things like giving up your coat when it’s cold out. Funny things like coming to the realization that though you hate the cold, you hate the idea more that she is.

    “It looks perfect on you,” Galinda tells her, her bare arms covered in goosebumps as they walk back from town one night after dark. She can’t take her eyes off of Elphaba in her favorite grey coat with the pink buttons.

    (Or, four times they share clothes.)

    Summary

    “Tomorrow—” It should sting. Should be outrageous, and yet it’s not. It’s—oddly relieving. It makes her laugh. “Make sure to cause a ruckus, then.”

    Elphaba’s eyebrows knit together, confusion flickering across her face. “I beg your pardon?”

    “A ruckus,” Glinda repeats, still fighting that strange bubble of laughter in her chest. “You know—chaos, mayhem, general disruption of carefully laid plans. That’s why you’re doing it tomorrow, no?”

    “Glinda.” Elphaba’s voice carries a note of wariness now. “Do you want me to cause a ruckus at your wedding? Because I will.”


    Or, Elphaba visits Glinda the night before her wedding, and Glinda desperately tries to fix things.

    Summary

    She turns back around and picks up Abby’s hands to try and rub warmth back into them. She very pointedly does not acknowledge the pang in her chest, and how much it feels like when she found her, starved and tied to a post. Then, Joel’s lessons on survival ring in her brain.

    Warm the body first. Losing a finger or two ain’t nothing compared to dying. Okay? Dry heat until they are no longer in danger, and then move ‘em to a warm bath if ya have one on hand.

    Abby isn’t going to get warm enough like this. Lying stiff on the ground, her eyes close as she loses consciousness again. Ellie presses her fingers to her pulse. It’s too slow. She’s still too cold.

    There was, another bit of advice that Joel gave.

    Now Ellie, sometimes you’re not gonna have enough blankets to get ‘em warm. Or maybe they don’t have much time. If that’s the case, body heat works well.

    Ellie closes her eyes and swallows.

    If she was going to go to all of this trouble to save Abby in the first place, she can’t just stop at the finish line.
