Summary
As his eyes fell closed and the room started to soften and flow away, Martin felt the barest hint of a kiss pressed to his temple. It was so fleeting that Martin wondered if he was dreaming, keeping his eyes shut.
Did he just - ?
“Sometimes I still can’t believe you loved me.” A whisper, nothing more than a breath between heartbeats. “To imagine that someone as kind and patient as you, had ever felt something for me...it’s unbelievable. It’s impossible.”
or: One rainy afternoon in the safe house, Jon and Martin have an unexpected conversation about what their relationship means. And, of course, both are a little surprised by the result.

Summary
Glinda, always concerned about her image, wants to make sure she's "the best kisser in college" before her first big date. 𖦹 ☼ ⋆｡˚⋆ฺ ♡
To do this, she proposes an experiment: she needs someone who is completely uninterested in romance to test her technique. The only person she can think of? ☼｡˚❀ * ꕤ
Elphaba, of course. At first, Elphaba refuses, but Glinda knows how to be persuasive. The problem is that the "test" doesn't go as expected when feelings start to emerge... 💚🩷
