    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

    Galinda Upland has never been anything other than her mothers’ pride and joy.

    Which is why when Elphaba tells her, quiet and reserved in their room that same night they get home from the Ozdust, “My father hates me,” Galinda feels nothing but shock and horror.

    Or: Galinda loves her moms, and she absolutely hates Elphaba’s dad.

    Summary

    "All of Oz thinks I’m dead.”
    “Not all of Oz,” Glinda said. Something like shame flickered across Elphaba’s green face. “Water, Elphaba, really?”
    “You know the rumors. Apparently I’m so wicked water can melt me.”
    “Well, I can agree that you’re wicked, but the rest of the sentiment is ridiculous.”

    Ten years after the melting, Glinda gets a visitor whom she is less than pleased (and unsurprised) to see.

    Summary

    Sudden bursts of magic are occurring in Shiz and Elphaba can only assume that she needs more discipline to better control her abilities. She doesn't dare to think that these incidents are at the fault of a certain pink roommate.

    Tl;dr: Elphaba's magic is spawned by her anger. Galinda's is spawned by her jealousy.
