    Summary

    “As long as I’m alive, I’ll be where you are.”

     

    Or: Glinda was supposed to be untouchable: beautiful, beloved, and useful to the people in power. Instead, she becomes a prisoner in silk, trapped in a role she never chose and carrying a pregnancy that was never hers to decide.

    Elphaba, meanwhile, becomes exactly what Oz needs her to be: a villain. A warning. A story people can fear instead of facing the truth.

    When their paths collide again, love becomes impossible to ignore and even more impossible to survive. Because freedom in Oz has never come without violence and hurt and lies.

    Summary

    She had been ready to burn it all down.

    That is the thing Elphaba keeps coming back to, afterward, in the narrow hours when she can't sleep and the Emerald City hums green outside her window. She had been ready. Her whole body had been oriented toward it, toward the fire and the fight and Fiyero's hand and the sky opening up ahead of her like a door.

    And then Glinda had looked at her.

    And she had come down.

    Or: what if the Wizard and Glinda did convince Elphaba to stay. And what if Elphaba starts to see exactly what Glinda has been surviving, deliberately, so that Elphaba could come home safe.

    Summary

    "Of all the women in this stupid village, they had to pick me"

    When Mira's name is chosen to be sent to the demon king as his bride, she knew it was a death sentence. Gwi-Ma was known to devour souls, and she knew he would devour hers.

    But when she's taken to meet the demon king...

    Mira looked up to see his face— "Oh!" For the second time tonight, Mira was startled to see a young woman's face. The demon king wasn't a king at all. She was a demon queen. Her eyes were a soft brown, though when she stepped into the light, they reflected with a golden hue. The tiger striped patterns were on her face and neck too. She wasn't human, that was for certain.

    But she didn't seem dangerous either.

     

    OR

    Rumi gets sent two brides she didn't ask for and she can't seem to get either of them to go home.

    Summary

    Zoey thinks, lying back against the paper covering of the cold examination table, while trying to ignore the sensation of inorganic equipment being lodged in places they had no god-given right to be, that this is, inarguably, the least sexy way to get knocked up.

    Zoey isn’t really sure how she ended up here, in all honesty.

    Well, she is. She can recount the steps chronologically. How Mira and Rumi had looked so god-damned defeated. How her big, stupid mouth had opened and volunteered, initially, and then had said yes to all of their concerned interrogations as to whether or not she was sure, like, really sure, one hundred per cent sure?

    And now she’s said yes so many times and so adamantly that it isn’t as though she can suddenly back track and say, surprise! I am actually no longer willing to carry the baby you have been so desperately trying for because I think it would be a really super-duper bad idea! Sorry for getting your hopes up!

     

    Zoey agrees to be a surrogate for a married Rumira. Things get messy because she's already in love with them, has known this for years, but she might be falling in love with the baby, too

    Summary

    Before, Rumi thought she would never find a place to belong, that she was destined to be alone in the forest since she'd lost her pack. But then she found a home in Kang Mira's arms, a safe home full of love and joy.

    Now, Rumi had learned that living with humans wasn't all bad. She was willing to improve her behavior for her pack, her mate, and their pup, and she was doing exceptionally well.

    Until she was guided by the sweetest scent she had ever smelled in her life straight to Miss Zoey—her daughter's favorite teacher, who turned her pack upside down with her adorable smile and floral perfume that wouldn't leave Rumi's mind in peace.

    Summary

    Pretty, Elphaba thinks. It shocks her, how easily it comes to her, but there’s really no other word for it. No one, in all her life, has ever looked at Elphaba like Galinda is right now. No one, in all her life, has ever looked this happy to see her.

    “Welcome to Shiz University, Elphaba Thropp. I have a feeling we’re going to be very good friends.”

    Summary

    Galinda’s eyelids are fluttering, gaze hazy and lost. She’s still fighting for air, and when Elphaba slips a hand over the girl’s wrist, she can feel her pulse is absolutely racing. Their teacher hustles over with a few other concerned students, and Elphaba can see Galinda flinch away with a whimper, something panicked and scared appearing on her face.

    Elphaba turns to the group with a grimace. “I think it’s heatstroke,” she says.

    Summary

    "Oh we're live!" Zoey's eyes flick up to the camera, her smile widening and both hands coming up to wave vigorously.

    The chat explodes in greetings.

    Rumi remains close to the camera, her brows furrowed together. "How do you know we're live?"

    Zoey gestures at something off screen, "Because I hit that," and then she points over to something in the corner that makes Rumi visibly balk. "And because everyone is saying hi."

    Rumi blinks slowly, "That's moving very fast."

    Zoey lets out a laugh that is equal parts fond as it is amused. She reaches across Rumi for the mouse, faint clicking audible before she's addressing the chat. "Guys, baby's first stream! How do we feel?"

    Or, Five times polytrix is almost outed on Rumi's stream and the slow descent into total freedom

    “I only wish—”

    “What?” Fiyero asks her.

    “I only wish that Glinda could know… that we’re alive—”

    “She can’t know. Not if we want to be safe.”

    Elphaba disagrees.

    Summary

    Zoey doesn’t know how long she stands there in the middle of her room, gawking at the notification flashing at her screen.

    Well, notifications, plural. They’re back to back on her home screen, right under all her social media notifications of people showering her with likes for today’s breakfast.

    Ryu Rumi sent you $250.00
    “For lunch! Let me know if you need more xo”

    Kang Mira sent you $501.00
    “lmk if she sent more than 500, I can double it lol”

    Zoey loudly declares, “What the HELL?”

    Or, broke college student Zoey goes viral for her revolting college meals—and rich girls Rumi and Mira find a little pity (among other things) in their hearts for her.

    Summary

    Set during/after the events of For Good.
    "Glinda looked from the Grimmerie to Elphaba. The calculated acceptance of the situation was clear in Elphaba’s eyes. She wasn’t quite defeated, but something only a step above was evident. It was an expression she had only seen once before - right after she had defied the Wizard all those years ago, when she had left Glinda behind. Only this was more definitive. This plan didn’t end with Elphaba soaring into the nighttime sky. This ended with something far worse."

    Summary

    Glinda wakes in an all-pink bedroom, and immediately shrieks and falls out of bed. She’s not sure how she got here, but maybe she can finally make things right. She can be Elphaba’s friend from the start. She can take down the Wizard without losing her friends. She can give Elphaba and Fiyero their happy ending.

    She knows none of it will be easy; she’s not the starry-eyed eighteen-year-old who got everything she ever wanted, and she knows that every choice has a cost. But maybe, this time, she can choose good.

    Summary

    Breathing in deeply so the smell of old parchment fills her nose, Glinda tries to put the memory aside. Her hands shake, crumpling the edges of the letter where she’s clutching it. She closes her eyes.

    Suddenly, she’s eighteen again, writing home asking if it’s alright for Elphie to come home for half-term; nineteen, celebrating her birthday with a cake, a field of poppies at sunset, and her four dearest friends, whispering in Elphaba’s ear about some secret that she can hardly remember now. She wracks her brain too long for what it could have been, and then she’s almost twenty-five—though birthdays hardly seem to matter anymore—and she has her hand pressed over her mouth because she knows Elphie is right, she can’t be found here, and she hasn’t heard a sound from Elphaba since she closed the door between them. But Elphaba said everything would be fine, and she believes her, has to, because she can’t imagine what will happen if, if—

    The sound of Elphaba’s agony rings in Glinda’s ears.

    Deciding to accept and be yourself is one thing; actually consistently applying that to your life is a whole other. After the creation of the new Honmoon, Zoey, Rumi, and Mira have promised each other no more lies. They're going to be there for each other, no matter what.

    Everything becomes much more complicated when Zoey gets bitten by a werewolf.

    Summary

    (Mira’s fast. Her reflexes, reactions)

    Or

    Rumi wasn’t stopping, her patterns, oh, such cruel things; ignite her skin an acidic pink in the dark. She’s begging them to understand, to listen, staggering toward the deadly, cutting end of Mira’s gok-do. Even as Mira begs her to stop, please, stop.

    Fingers trembling, betrayal sits heavy on her tongue—she can’t do this.

    Rumi grows close, to close.

    (Desperate to seek penance in the only way she knows how, sacrifice)

    In a hair’s breadth a blur of black and gold moves between Rumi and Mira’s gok-do, the sick, wet, sound of flesh colliding with starlight—being speared inward, through.

    (Zoey’s always been faster though.)

    Self-taught demon hunters Zoey and Mira get in over their head when they take mercy on a demon named Rumi.

    AKA,

    This was a kinktober prompt that got way out of hand. Rumi gave up on humanity a long time ago and went full demon, Mira is the last living heir to a tattered legacy, Zoey is here for the ride (and lying about everything) and nobody gets the ending they deserve.
