'You really are the most detestable thing I ever saw!' Glinda says hotly. 'Don't you have some hideous turtleneck convention to crawl back to? Why, what in Oz's name did I ever do to deserve such a horrendible colleague as you?!'
Or; Elphaba has avoided fashion, and for good reason, until she is unwittingly hired as second assistant to the head of Ozmopolitan Shiz.
Or or; The Devil Wears Prada AU!

Summary
“Do you remember Madame Morrible and her awful Prop and Ganda department? Well, I figured that I could put them to actual good use. And so I did a little image rehabilification.”
“A little?”
Glinda twirls a strand of blonde hair around her finger, not meeting her eyes. “Tiny. Microscopical. Infinitesimal. Just a whisper of a coordinated multiyear plan involving publicists, historians, theater troupes, and a very spirited group of fans.”
Elphaba blinks.
Glinda smiles sweetly.
“Elphaba,” she says gently, “darling—to come back from a smear campaign, you simply must have good press.”

Or, Elphaba spends ten years being dead. Oz spends ten years falling in love with her. She did not request a redemption arc, let alone one so exuberant.Bookmarked by JustAgreenElf

Summary
Glinda Upland, PhD candidate in Sorcery Studies, is writing her dissertation on some old, mysterious magic book called The Grimmerie. The only issue is that she can’t read it. Truthfully, she can’t even open it. No, in a dreadfully unfortunate twist of fate — a joke of destiny, the stars utterly misaligned — only Elphaba Thropp, the grumpified green librarian, can.
Or: Self-indulgent researcher/librarian au featuring musings on people who make things that are meant to last and also an enemies-to-lovers arc for Wicked’s primary throuple — Glinda, Elphaba, and a magical ancient tome.

“What?” Fiyero asks her.
“I only wish that Glinda could know… that we’re alive—”
“She can’t know. Not if we want to be safe.”

Summary
Frustrated by the pressure from both work and university combined, Galinda signs up for a pole dance class on a whim to finally do something for herself. It goes as good as could be expected, which is not at all, but she decides to soldier on anyway. Then one evening, her roommate joins her there. Turns out Elphaba is much better at this than Galinda ever hoped to be, and that doesn't help the crush Galinda has had on her for years.
Or, a story about pining and yearning and wilful ignorance born out of fear to ask for more, and how sometimes a bird in the hand is no better than two in the bush. How taking a risk could feel like both falling down and falling apart, and how it suddenly isn't that terrifying when someone is there to catch you.

Summary
“If only someone paid attention to their surroundings while they were flying around on that dirty old thing.” Glinda gestures with a curled lip towards Elphaba’s broom, and Elphaba huffs in irritation.
“Excuse me for not considering all the other flying people out there,” Elphaba drolls, then glances around. They’re in some sort of contraption—a metal platform encased in a shiny, shifting transparent sphere—hovering steady in the fog. “What the hell even is this thing?”
“My bubble,” Glinda announces with a proud lift of her chin.
Or: Bubble sex. Sex in the bubble. And what comes after. (AKA, the one where they start hooking up during intermission and Act II)

Summary
“Oh. Oz,” Galinda breathes, taking a step forward. “You’re me. Future me.” Grass crunches under her feet. “Do you have any advice for the you of eleven years ago?”
“I will give you only one piece of advice. Any more, and I’m afraid of what might happen,” Glinda tells her, and Galinda sits up straighter, rapt. Glinda’s face hardens, steels. She scowls into the darkness of the woods around them.
“Stay away from Elphaba Thropp.”
Or: On the night of her nineteenth birthday, Galinda bungles a spell and winds up in touch with an older version of herself. Glinda the Good leaves her with a single piece of advice. Galinda has some trouble taking it.

Mind the Gap by LaMombey

12 Apr 2026

Summary
Galinda Upland and Elphaba Thropp technically work together—if you count different branches in entirely different parts of Oz as working together.
Until now, their paths had never crossed. But during the annual inter-branch fair, fate, bad timing, and a spectacular chain of unfortunate events shove them into the same booth, the same project… and, somehow, the same relationship.
Now they have to smile, nod, and convincingly act like they’re head-over-heels for each other in front of colleagues, clients, and the entire Emerald City corporate network. Which is fine.
Because all they have to do is survive the fair, keep the act going, and absolutely, under no circumstances start enjoying it.Bookmarked by JustAgreenElf

Summary
“There was something about her wincing face that the woman found intriguing. The release of control was a desire she understood quite thoroughly, but here there was something else, something that deeply troubled the young Throne Minister, something that—to L.’s confusion—inspired a different approach. It was almost as if the bubbly little blonde nursed a wound she wouldn’t let close, some hurt she wanted to honor only with more hurt. What was the ethical standard in servicing someone like that in this way?”
or
Glinda has been named Throne Minister in the wake of Elphie’s death and has dedicated herself to Oz (including some resistance activity). Still, she’s lonely, and refuses to accept that the witch she loves is gone. When the ladies of the Emerald City begin frequenting the Plum & Pip, Glinda finds herself drawn in. Her life is about to change for good.
or
Glinda and Elphaba reunite in the spiciest of ways.

Ghost notes between us by guhlinda

Summary
Glinda Upland is everything she was supposed to become: the voice of a generation, the face of a global brand, and the world's biggest pop star. But underneath the gloss and glitter is a woman quietly falling apart, tired of playing a part she didn’t write, and haunted by the only person who ever really saw her.
Elphaba Thropp walked away from the spotlight almost ten years ago. Now a jaded, fiercely independent guitarist scraping by in the indie scene. Elphaba wants nothing to do with stadium tours, glam squads, or the pop star she once knew too intimately to forget.
Thrown together on the biggest stage of their lives, what begins as tension and unresolved history gives way to stolen glances, late-night songwriting sessions, and the terrifying possibility of something real.

Summary
Galinda Upland is an up-and-coming architect with one of Oz' premier firms, Morrible & Diggs. She's most definitely straight. (But, still, she has sex with women and tells herself it doesn't count.)
Elphaba Thropp is the dour, antisocial chief legal counsel at the same firm. She's bi. She has needs. People aren't exactly lining up to date her, and Galinda is convenient, even if Elphaba knows better than to get involved with the most closeted woman she's ever met. (Besides, she's absolutely not looking for anything but sex.)
And thus, the arrangement.
Reader, you'll be shocked to find it goes off the rails.

Summary
Morrible unfurls Glinda’s mind like a scroll, examining the contents of her memory the way she examined the displayed organs of the first fetal pig she ever dissected. It’s less cohesive than the innards of a pig. That’s the problem with memory bound by emotion. Love is diffuse. It so easily becomes entangled in every aspect of the human experience, regardless of whether the target was physically present or not. Extracting it with any amount of elegance can get…dicey.

Rather than any information identifying the body, Glinda has written a note over the photo that reads in a frenetic scribble NO SHOES WHY?????? and Elphaba thinks yes, Glinda Upland of the Upper Uplands does seem like the type to fashion-shame a corpse.

On the eve of Lady Glinda's retirement, Nor receives an invitation summoning her to Pertha Hills, the seat of the Upland Arduenna family.
