"i do have a few pairs of flats, but heels feel better. plus, they make me taller," she said with a small chuckle. "it's a crime to be this short. people already think i'm from munchkinland," galinda scrunched her nose slightly. @demongemz

Jill had just finished a couple of long nights at the hospital and she couldn’t wait to get home, take a nice long warm bath, and spend time with Lawrence. She knew that there wasn't anything better than having their days off lined up together so that they could decompress from work together. She was pulled from her thoughts by the woman's voice turning to look at her “That is a shame before those were so lovely but I’m afraid I’m all in favor of a nice comfortable shoe though it could be the doctor in me.” @galindafication

[galindafication]

"oh, they absoluteously can be. they're the perfect mix of me and their father, so... there's only us to blame, i supposify," she said with a small chuckle. "they do. i wish they were still babies. they were a lot easier to get out the door in the morning when i had to do it myself. now that they can get ready on their own, it takes an hour longer for less progress. i love seeing the little personalities they're becoming, though. i'm learning more about them every day," galinda said. she did love watching the twins grow up, but she wished they could stay little forever. "oh, how wonderful! it takes a special person to be a doctor. her patients will be lucky to have her as their doctor." @fcdcdmcmories

"TWINS, HUH? THAT'S.. THEY MUST BE A WORLD OF TROUBLE. not that that's a bad thing. of course not." because he knew that he would do anything for his daughter and he knew that NO ONE mattered more to him than she did. which was why he was trying to figure this out, because.. how COULD he not? "yeah, i know what that's like. and they grow up so fast, don't they? LONG BEFORE WE EVEN KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON." grinning. "she's in her twenties. training to be a doctor like her mom. WE COULDN'T BE PROUDER." / @galindafication

[galindafication]

she smiled, giving her a little shrug. "yeah well, someone had to get rid of those phonies and it could have only been done from the inside. i just hope everything i implemented is still ongoing... if whoever has taken over took away the munchkins and animals' rights again, i'm gonna scream." she didn't know who would have possibly taken over after she disappeared, but she hoped it was someone who had the same values as her so oz would be kept in the place she had it in. "ugh! i'd burst into flames if anyone ever compared me to bick. he's an entire sub-species on his own," she said, dramatic, but she meant every word. @fcrafcrtnight

"PRETTY SURE THAT IS A REALLY GOOD TITLE, BUT.. I COULD THINK OF A FEW MORE THAT WOULD FIT YOU BETTER? the hero of oz is more like it?" she teased, glancing in the other's direction, because.. right now, she wanted to make it happen more than anything. didn't she? yes. of course. "glinda, come on. no one could confuse you for someone like boq." grinning, but.. it just made her smile fade. she missed nessarose. SHE ALWAYS WOULD.

"i mean... no? just broke a shoe. physically i'm fine, i supposify, but... if these are unfixable then i'll be out $450, so... financial might be a bummer," she said with a small sigh, staring at her shoe. "i do try, but when you're a natural klutz, unfortunate events happen." @fcrafcrtnight

"WOAH. YOU'RE DOING OKAY THERE OR SOMETHING?" blake wondered, having been brought out of his thoughts by what had happened to the other. did he know how to help? not particularly and mostly, he did keep away from people, but.. what was he supposed to do right now? he had no fucking clue. TRULY. "yeah, it.. same thing used to happen to my wife. please be careful?" @galindafication

[galindafication]

"beauty comes at a high price in these trying times," she said with a small sigh. "heels are my staple. i'm galinda upland, the uplands don't wear sneakers, my friend." she'd never worn a sneaker a day in the life. her shoes consisted of 90% heels, 10% flats, but never sneakers. she'd be utilizing her flats a lot more now, though. galinda scrunched her nose a bit as she giggled, but she gave in and hopped on his back, childhood memories flooding her head of her father doing the same when she was a tiny little witch. "well, i trip over air on a daily basis, it can't get any stupider than that." @phantcmwritings

Stu raised his eyebrows again, but this time in genuine surprise. “450 bucks?” He shook his head. “Man, that’s not a fashion tragedy – this is a whole financial crisis! You can get perfectly good sneakers for like 30 bucks, man! What are you doing?” He laughed a little. His grin returned when she mentioned the possibility of a piggyback ride. “Let me tell you, I happen to be exceptionally skilled in the fine art of piggyback transportation. Got strong shoulders, a great sense of balance – total package.” He turned, crouching slightly. “C’mon, Cinderella! Your chariot awaits! I promise a thrilling ride – 0% chance of injury, 95% chance of me tripping over something stupid.”

[galindafication]

"i do, indeed. ellie and farrah, they're twins," she said. it still bewildered her that she had twins. twins didn't run in her family, and as far as she knew, they didn't in fiyero's either - then again, she didn't know his family, and didn't truly know him as well as she thought she did. "they're five. i wish they'd stay this little forever. we made a pact when they were eight months old that they'd stay that little forever and... well, they clearly went back on their word," galinda joked. "how old is your munchkin?" @fcdcdmcmories

"YOU'VE GOT KIDS? ME TOO. A DAUGHTER, AS WELL." nodding in the direction of the other immediately, because it was nice to have something that could help him CONNECT to the other. wasn't it? he happened to THINK so. and right now? he didn't even know where his head was. in a pretty horrible place, clearly, because.. he didn't like feeling hopeless and right now, that was what he DID. right? "thanks for that. i'll forward to their feedback, too. how old are they?" / @galindafication

[galindafication]

galinda tried to stifle a giggle, but the grin on her face let it be clear that she was amused. he was a strange one, but he made her laugh. plus, oz was nothing but strange. she was used to it. "well, with these specific shoes the cost was about $450, so... a pretty good dent." she let out a disappointed sigh, gazing at the broken shoe before taking the other off so she was flat on the ground. "oh, never barefoot. not on hard ground, that's how you get callouses, dry skin and cracked heels. i'll just use my bubble once i'm done wallowing in self pity... can't say a piggyback ride wouldn't be fun, though." @phantcmwritings

Stu let out a loud, theatrical gasp, his eyes wide as he clutched his chest like she had just dropped dead right in front of him. “Oh no! Tragedy has struck! A fallen soldier!” he pointed at the broken heel like it was a crime scene. “I mean, damn. I knew fashion was pain, but at what cost, Galinda, at what cost?!” He crouched down to get a better look at the shoe, tapping his chin like he was analysing evidence. “What’s your plan now? Tough it out like a true warrior? Go barefoot and turn it into some kind of Cinderella moment? Or do you need a piggyback ride?”

[galindafication]

"thicker would be the smart way to go, but the thinner heel makes me look a little taller. i need all the height i can get," she said with a polite smile. she'd come to terms with her shortness - but she still liked to feel tall. "that would sure beat carrying around a broken shoe. told myself i wouldn't buy anymore shoes, but desperate times call for desperate measures. it's practically an emergency. at least that's what i'll tell my conscience. and my bank account." @daydrcamerss

val let out a small hiss, shaking her head. "been there." several times, in fact. it was often a... hazard of the job back home sometimes. she cleared her throat and offered a small smile to the other. "i can relate. which is why i tend to go for something thicker now." she nodded towards her boot with a thicker heel. "i uh... there's a shoe place right round the corner which is a pretty good one. i'm sure they'd have something there that would go with your outfit." val mused. @galindafication

[galindafication]

"i mean, 'most trips made in a bubble' would be pretty cool too," she smiled. she really did love her bubble. once she figured out how to make her bubble with magic instead of that mechanical contraption the 'wizard' made for her, she stopped using the platform. magic was more fun, anyways. "i know, but... it would be nice to be a little taller. people confuse me for a munchkin every now and then," she said, scrunching her nose. @fcrafcrtnight

"YOU SHOULD BE. BUT NOT JUST FOR THAT." as well as she knew, galinda had always been someone that she could trust. she had always been someone that she trusted with absolutely everything that she had and.. well, maybe.. it was always going to be like that. right now? SHE HAPPENED TO THINK SO. "your height doesn't define you, you know? you're so much more than that." @galindafication

[galindafication]

she nodded. "mhm. yeah, just my usual klutzy self. i really should be in a world record book," she chuckled. it wasn't a secret that she was clumsy, but one would expect someone as poised as galinda to have better luck in minor inconveniences. she had all these years in london to transition over to flat shoes, but she was too attached to the heels. "they fit better. and they make me look taller. it's a crime to be this short," she said. "how've you been?" @fcrafcrtnight

"WOAH. IS EVERYTHING OKAY?" she hadn't supposed that she would get to see galinda again. if anything, elphaba had kept to herself, as she so often did, because.. what else was she supposed to have done, she wondered? she had messed up and that.. as far as she was concerned? was nothing all that easy to come back from. "you did always like your heels, as far as i'm concerned." @galindafication

[galindafication]

"oh, come on!" galinda whined as the heel of her shoe snapped. she stepped to the side out of the walkway with a small huff, taking the broken shoe off and examining it. it could definitely be fixed, but she couldn't do it until she got home - and she left her wand behind, so magic repair wouldn't do. she'd just have to float home when she was ready to go back. "i guess this should be a lesson to not wear heels for casual wear." @walstarterblog

[galindafication]

she gave him a polite smile. "well, i'm personally not a muffin person, but i can take it home to my girls and give you their honest feedback. they have no filter," galinda chuckled. "but if i was a muffin person, i do have to say they look pretty good." @fcdcdmcmories

"WOULD IT BE TOO MUCH TO ASK IF YOU WANTED A MUFFIN? i've been.. huh, stress baking. it's a thing. but seriously, i used to owe a restaurant and.. they're pretty good," was this the only thing that he could DO? it seemed as if it was something close to that, yeah, and now .. parker knew that it was either that or lose his own fucking mind. this was better than he had been before. OR WAS IT? HE HAD NO IDEA ANYMORE. NOT AT ALL. handing out one towards the other, he stopped a little bit. "well? want to be the first to try them?" / @walstarterblog

[galindafication]

"she was never nice to me before it all happened... she told me she didn't have faith that i'd be a good sorceress - she hurt me. and... i still chose to follow her after elphie flew off. i should have just left with her when she asked me to. i waited too long. i was going to go with her... but the guards grabbed me before we could jump," she said. she regretted every day waiting until the last second. but, had the guards not held her hostage, she would have been on that broom with her. she was ambushed. galinda gave him a sad smile and shook her head. "don't be. i know there was never any ill intent." she was more nervous now than ever. her hands were fidgeting with the rings on her fingers and tears sprang to her eyes, the anxiousness washing over her. "when - when you and elphie left, i um... i - i found out i was pregnant. i didn't have any way of telling you," her voice cracked. "and... then i ended up here. and... and i'm - i'm sorry... i'm so sorry, i didn't mean to spring this on you like that, i didn't even mean to mention them," galinda said, quickly wiping a tear that fell when she blinked. @fcdcdmcmories

"YOU SHOULD NOT BLAME YOURSELF FOR THAT. SHE FOOLED ALL OF US. and.. so did he, i suppose." the wizard. elphaba had looked up to him and perhaps fiyero was aware of that more than MOST PEOPLE and he had just let her down. that wasn't right. but looking back? nothing of that was right at all. nothing had happened how it should have and fiyero was more than certain of it. "we should have not left you behind. that much is certain. for what it is worth? i am sorry." he was, certainly. he wished that things had been different. "my twins... i... WHAT?" / @galindafication

[galindafication]

"she knew more than she let on... i wish i understood that before i followed her," she said. part of her did understand it - but not completely. if she knew madame morrible and the wizard's intentions were to hurt elphie, she never would have joined them to begin with. but then... part of her had to be glad she did, because she really did change things from the inside. she still made sure the causes elphie was standing up against were eradicated. she even reinstated the animals rights as soon as she was able to. galinda gave him a sad smile and nodded a bit. "i know you cared. you just... cared for me differently than you did her. i can't be mad at either of you for chasing the love of your life. i'd be a hypocrite." her heart raced when she realized she heard what she said. well, she mentioned them, she couldn't just brush over it now, could she? that would be deceptive, and that's not the kind of person galinda was. "the twins... um... our twins. your... twins." @fcdcdmcmories

"OF COURSE. SHE WAS ALWAYS KNOWN FOR.. HER WICKED WAYS. I WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED IF THIS WAS HER DOING." fiyero had changed. he was quite aware that he had come a long way from the smug prince that believed that he deserved to have everyone's admiration and he was.. MUCH MORE DIFFERENT NOW. WAS HE NOT? YES. "it... i am sorry. for how all of it turned out. i wished to take care of her, but.. it means not that i did not care about you any longer. I ALWAYS HAVE, GLINDA." and not a single part of him wanted to see hurt. never. "you and the.. what now?" / @galindafication

[galindafication]

she let out a small gasp of excitement and nodded quickly. "it is! no one's ever added 'with a guh', that makes me a happy witch," she said. even when she introduced herself as galinda to people, they still called her glinda - and it drove her absolutely insane. the only two people that were allowed to call her glinda were elphie and fiyero, and that was because they'd been there to witness her change her name. but she went back to her roots when she ended up in london. she missed galinda. @monumented

"Oh — is that Ga-linda, with a Guh ?"

He took a moment to glance at her wand, wondering what meaning it held for her and if it was a music theatre thing, or ' live action role playing ' he'd been hearing of lately. His curiosity held no judgement, only trying to paint a better picture of London, trying to understand the rhythm of the people who lived here — whether grown up here or transplanted like he had.

she smiled hearing that voice. it was nice to hear it in person and not in nightmares. "well of course i am, where else would i be? there's no way out of this place," she said with a smile. "besides, i wouldn't leave leave without you." if she could go back to that moment at the top of the palace and decided to go with elphie, she would choose to go with her. but... would she have the life she has now? would the twins exist? "well, we're better now than we were this morning. somebody decided to jinx her sister's broom," she said, glancing above her, where her small girls were floating - one on a little broom and one encased in a bubble. she wished magic had come as easily to her growing up as it did to ellie and farrah. they had abilities in the womb, she had to learn how to develop and control hers. "she popped my bubble," farrah said. "it was an accident," galinda said with a small sigh before looking at elphie again. "they kept turning each other into different animals last night. if anything, at least their squabbles are harmless and entertaining." @fcrafcrtnight

"GLINDA! YOU'RE.. ACTUALLY HERE. i didn't think that i'd see you again. or i thought that maybe.. i don't know, all of that had been a dream." because it wasn't something that she had seen happening anytime soon? it hadn't been and.. if she were to be honest, part of her still felt as if that had been a dream. to see her best friend again, free of all of the drama? it had, hadn't it? "are you okay? the girls?" @galindafication
