Network

Things are moving along quite nicely for House of Glinda now, we're meeting with designers and sorting out websites and promotion. It's all getting rather exciting!

If anybody is still interested in being a part of it we will always be looking for talent - new or established! Fashion is an ever changing world after all.

Animals are... rather fascinating, really. To wake up to a world where animals can't talk, where it seems almost like whatever plan Dillamond was talking about might've already long come into place... I can understand why some people are so passionate about Animal rights now.

I don't trust the headmistress of Shiz at all either. Madame Morrible. Something about her just... doesn't sit right with me.

Hi everyone.

My name's John, and I just moved out here from Texas to join [law firm]. I came across this network thing a bit by chance, but it seems sort of like the way to know what's going on around here and meet new people.

I've never been out to California so it's all pretty new to me still, but, uh, is it always so ... Eventful?

This is just getting ridiculous.

It's a good thing these... creatures are so fragile. I never thought I'd be able to use a wheelchair as a weapon I'm half-tempted to just work from home until this passes.

Never been more glad that I don't have pets. Hearing animals outside talking is bad enough.

...Incidentally, I think my father in the dreams might be completely insane. Why would you give a girl in a wheelchair jewelled shoes? Silver ones, at that.

YOU HAVE BEEN CORDIALLY INVITED
TO THE WEDDING RECEPTION OF
TENOH HARUKA & KAIOH MICHIRU.
( Rest of the invite after cut )

I'm going to be cautiously optimistic about this.

For the last few days, I haven't had any issues walking. It's... strange. Wonderful, though.

I wish there were more intelligent and sophisticated people on here to talk to. It's always drama, sex, drinking, drugs, and violence. Can't there just be someone willing to sit and have tea?

For anyone who's wondering after my last post on the subject - having more dreams seems to have made my ability to support myself, and yes, my ability to walk, suffer even more. Which is fantastic.

I'm trapped in a wheelchair in the dreams, and it looks like I'm heading the same way here.

I feel well and truly welcomed back to the OC now.

First new dream in a while - I dreamt of my sister, of the mother I never got a chance to know. Fairly usual, except... Elphaba, why were you green?

I really have to ask.

I've seen tales of people gaining things because of those dreams, but... has anyone ever lost something? Because I'm starting to get worse Like a physical ability or something like that. Not something they've gained from the dreams.

Well, father insisted I come back here, rather than worrying about him all the time... I guess I can't complain. It's warmer here.

Means my body complains less too.

The dreams just get stranger. More of the annoyingly pink woman: this time, she threw a party, alongside some ridiculous Vinkus playboy.

...Not that I have any idea what Vinkus means.

...Last night, I dreamt of the most hideously pink woman in, quite possibly, the entire universe.

It can't be legal (or sane) to wear that much at once.

Ok, so I'm doing this while I'm feeling brave and slightly drunk. My new friend Lúthien has inspired me to be a bit more...daring, so this is me...coming out of my shell.

Hi Valarnet! My name is Elphaba Thropp and I moved here a few weeks ago but wasn't brave enough to introduce myself. I've also bought a flute, but I've never played before, so if anyone can give me lessons I'd be very appreciative! And also, does anyone know of any local animal shelters in the area? Once this quarantine's finished I would love to volunteer!
Thanks!

Strangest dream last night. Wonder what could've caused it.

I swear, you leave home to try and get a new start, and your sister never stops emailing you and texting you...

Honestly, Elphaba. Get a hobby.
