    Summary

    Francesca has lived as a secret alpha for her entire adult life - using herbs to repress her alpha instincts. She'd thought she'd found safety and comfort in the arms of John Stirling, but his tragic death stole that away from her. To make matters worse, his cousin, Michaela, is an omega who makes her feel excited and scared for reasons she cannot explain. When Michaela is named the new Lady Kilmartin and announces her intention to return to London, Francesca flees back to her brother's home and sets herself onto the marriage mart.

    But of course, masking as a beta will not be as easy for Francesca as it was the first time, and complications quickly arise when her Majesty threatens to select a more "refined" diamond for the season.

    Title & Vibes loosely inspired by "DON'T YOU SEE ME TRYING" by Erin LeCount

    Nile my beloved… wonderful character study and very interesting “what happens now?” upon Quýnh‘s return.

    Summary

    “You’ve won, then.” Hades spits out, like it’s something caught between her teeth.

    “Indeed I have, lady mine.” Persephone shoots back, still catching her breath.

    Her nails tap against the metal of their table, before pushing herself up, crossing the tiny length of the table, and Hades pushes her seat back, waiting for her. “And as such, I get to have my fun.”

    Summary

    Finally, Elphaba speaks. “I’m sorry I didn’t tell you about my plan.”

    The anger is gone now. Glinda’s voice is small and petulant. “Well, good,” she says. “You should be.”

    Her tongue twitches to shed more. I’m sorry too. I missed you. I wish I had saved us. I wish I was braver. I will never forgive myself. I love you. I’m sorry. I love you. I’m sorry. But she refrains.

    or, 5 times elphaba leaves + 1 time she comes back. moments from canon plus bonus fix-it material.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    I feel I am lost in time and in warmth and in trying… a beautiful piece to delve deeper into the pages of canon, and keep on asking - when, when, and what if we can finally say what we’ve been wanting to say all along? Very sweet.
