    Summary

    It was wishful thinking. It had to be the truth. Glinda may not know much but she knew performance, and the more she thought about it the better it fit. Elphaba’s death didn’t make sense. Glinda had seen it with her own eyes and had stupidly believed that was proof it had happened.

    Elphaba’s melting shadow had been wearing the hat. Glinda wasn’t sure of the scientification of melting, but surely either all or none of her clothes should have melted. Surely Elphaba herself shouldn’t have melted. Fiyero’s body was missing, and Elphaba’s hat was in her hands.

    Glinda stared at herself in the mirror. Her eyes were bloodshot, and she realized she must have been crying. She looked crazy. It didn’t matter.

    Elphaba was alive.

    Summary

    They decriminalized it today, Jeeves—not that you don’t know that already. I know the dead aren’t supposed to have a jot of knowledge about the world below, but I can’t imagine that goes for you: in fine print of every King James, I’ve no doubt, if closely examined, it says “except for Jeeves.”

    Summary

    It’s not, like, a thing.

    It’s only happened twice, if you don’t count the time during the pre-season when Max shoved a thigh against George’s crotch, and George, touch-deprived and broken-hearted, let out a sharp gasp and came instantly. Max, looking shocked and frightened, stormed away.

    Summary

    Charles has been good, really. He’s given Max plenty of space, and they’ve had a perfectly amicable break up.

    But after the race he’s got a little too much energy to burn off, and Max looks at him with a little too much longing.

    So sue him. He just wants to be wanted.
