Title: Different
Rating: PG-13. Sex is discussed, so, if that bothers you... but who am I kidding? You're all going to yell at me for not being more explicit.
Pairing: Gelphie
Summary: Bookverse. Elphaba and Glinda are both in Munchkinland for Nessa's funeral, and Elphaba finds herself unable to sleep after they have their fight over the shoes.

At least they part on good terms, though. Even if it does involve awkward sex.

I was going to be. But it was one in the morning and I wanted to go to sleep.

Cool!

Bittersweet.

Especially liked the last line:) But then again, your Gelphie is always likable if not impressive:)

[fabala_belle]

Aw, thank you.

Awwwwwwwwwwwww

I was kinda half hoping you'd break canon and have them run away off into the sunset, shoes be damned. But it works better this way, it's way more real.

Lovely as always.

I'm glad you liked it :) It was originally going to be happier... but I just couldn't.

I never thought about it, but the awkwardness is perfect. I mean, the awkwardness itself is imperfect, which is important, because the way that things were, that Elphaba was at Shiz seems untouchable farther on in the book. But it's perfectly done. If that makes sense.

Thanks for writing.

Thank you. I'm really glad people are appreciating the awkwardness and all that. I was expecting a string of angry comments about how they didn't have hot sex and then stay together... but everyone's behaving :)
