Summary
But Glinda must know. She counts to three in her head before she opens her eyes.
And well, she can’t help the gasp that escapes her.
“Elphie.”
It surely has to be a ghost. Because there is no way that Elphaba Thropp is sitting on her favorite lounge chair, looking as green as she ever has.
...in which Glinda the Good Witch has created the Oz they imagined all those years ago, and Elphaba can't stay away any longer.

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
It’s five months after the worst day of Glinda’s life that she wakes from one terrible nightmare into a new one. It’s the barest whisper of a sound, the smallest flicker of a shadow in the low light, and Glinda springs awake.
“Elphie?”
Or: Elphaba is alive. She and Glinda have some stuff to work out.

Summary
Five times Galinda tells herself when it comes to Elphaba "I'm not that girl" - whether out of denial, guilt, regret, a need to fix things, more denial, more pining, and even more regret - and each time more non-canonical than the last.
From Ozdust, to a fix-it where Galinda is spared from sleep in class and joins Elphie's rescue mission, to her supposed goodbye at the train station, to a fix-it where she gets 10 more seconds to make a different choice - and then an aftermath where her guilt and self-worth comes crashing down.
All for Elphie to keep upending - and to finally prove wrong.
Spoilers for the movie/musical and eventually part 2 [even with its own fix-its]

Summary
Glinda struggles with grief after Elphaba’s demise. She finds herself tormented by dreams to the point of exhaustion. Her life, uprooted and twisted into an ugly mess, can only be fixed by one person: Elphaba. But Elphaba isn’t there. Not even when Fiyero shows up with a disguised stranger. Not even when Fiyero confesses to a years long con that leaves Glinda heartbroken and happy all at once.
