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.

“I only wish that Glinda could know… that we’re alive—”
“She can’t know. Not if we want to be safe.”
Elphaba disagrees.
