    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

    "You know…" Rumi mumbles into the fabric, her voice muffled. "I love you. I don't want to lose you too…"

    Celine's breath catches, her body stilling, every muscle taut as the words sink in. Her eyes fix on the ceiling, unblinking, heart rattling against her ribs.

    She didn't expect that. She isn't prepared.

    For a long moment she says nothing, lost in the maze of her thoughts. Then, quietly, almost reluctantly, she mutters, "I love you too."

    Summary

    “Houston, do you copy?”

    Caitlyn panicked, feeling extraordinarily unprepared having been thrust into her new position without so much as even a handbook to consult. What were the formalities? What was she supposed to respond with? Where was the damn push to talk button…

    “Hellooo? I said Houston, do you copy?”

    Caitlyn fiddled with her headset, having finally found the green button on the side and hastily letting out a rather breathless reply. “Um, yes. Hello? This is Houston. I copy.”

    There was a long pause in which Caitlyn sat twiddling her thumbs, anxiety pushing the frantic pulse of her heartbeat through her eardrums. Was that wrong? Did she already fuck up? She took a steady deep breath, finger hovering over the talk button until the familiar voice of the astronaut came through her headset once more.

    “Damn, Houston. I didn’t expect you to sound so sexy.”

    OR

    Caitlyn has been assigned as the personal capcom to one of the astronauts currently on a year long expedition at the international space station. Cue long months of pining and desperate longing.

    Summary

    “As familiar as Galinda Upland still felt to Elphaba, she was nothing more than a stranger to her. Their fleeting moment of shared past mattered nothing anymore. Because Galinda Upland’s name had been printed on these admission papers. Papers that had only found their way into Elphaba’s clammy hands because she was to be a guardian to this person, a job she had begged Dr. Dillamond for weeks to get. But far more importantly, this meant that Galinda Upland had become blind.”

    Elphaba is working at Oz’ best and only boarding school for the blind. Galinda has to enroll after recently losing her eyesight. There was no way Elphaba would ever tell a girl like her about her green skin – and about the fact that they had met once before. Because of that fateful encounter, Galinda would always be special to her.
