Summary
"It means that you should prepare yourself for what might happen," said Dr. García gently. "Señora, this man is barely remembered. Whoever still holds memories of him and stopped the Final Death… it may not be enough. Perhaps he will eventually recover his strength and wake up. That would be the ideal outcome. But his condition is not promising, Señora."

Summary
It was Kai. Blood pooled around him and over the throne near where he lay, dark like the black strokes of a Japanese ink painting.
“Your Majesty!” Torin cried, racing over and halting just before crashing into Kai. He slid to his knees, examining his body with burgeoning dread. “Where were you injured?”
Torin finds Kai in the throne room after Cinder is stabbed.

Summary
Dorothy Gale has found herself in a strange new world, with a target on her head and some very odd new friends.
The journey to the Emerald City is long and fraught, and nothing is what it seems.
This story explores Act II of Wicked, primarily from the POV of the Scarecrow
(I am making an effort to avoid spoilers in the summary for people just scrolling through. There's a more detailed summary in the Author Notes)
EDIT--Under slight revisions! Nothing major, and not really anything pulling from the new movie, but...well, I wrote this VERY quickly, and I feel it can be improved slightly.

Summary
“Look, I know you’d probably rather chew your arm off than talk about it—” He acknowledges the comment with a snort. “—so I’m just gonna—sit here, and give you a hug, okay?”
Or AU in which Rumple still sacrifices himself to kill Pan, but no curse is cast. Purely so that Neal can have five minutes for a breakdown that, let's be honest, has been a couple of centuries coming.Bookmarked by stolenpostit
