    “But I don’t want you to leave.”

    “And I can’t promise you I’ll stay.”

    Or,

    Summary

    “I only tell the truth now, Lucy Gray,” he replied, crossing one foot over the other, posing, preening, like a bird, “learned my lesson. It was Sejanus, by the way. My third.”

    “Well isn’t that something, you Capitol boys can learn after all. Color me astonished. You could have had them shoot me in the woods. Left my bones to bleach.”

    “That’s no way for a victor to go. Besides if I actually wanted you dead I think I’d have to prove it to myself, do it with my bare hands. Send you off like Desdemona. I think I prefer Beatrice, though, or perhaps Viola, they both had happy ends. Wouldn’t you prefer a happy end, Lucy Gray?”

    And damn her soul, she would prefer a happy end.

    Summary

    The idle thought at the back of Glinda’s mind is that Nessarose never talked about her sister as beautiful.

    She shakes herself to stop those thoughts, knowing she can’t have them, and instead gives Elphaba a smile. “Congratulations,” she says sweetly. “Nessarose never told me how talented you were.”

    “Thank you,” Elphaba says, and takes a sip of her champagne. “So kind of you to come over when there are still reporters watching.”

    “I...I didn’t-”
