Summary
Elphaba Thropp has never been one to follow the rules. Rebellious, sharp-tongued, and always pushing against the expectations placed upon her, she’s finally gone too far. In an attempt to straighten her out, her parents send her away for the summer to the sleepy town of Shiz Hollow, where she’s to work under the watchful eye of her no-nonsense uncle at his repair shop. Resentful and itching to escape, she counts down the days until she can return home.
Glinda Upland has always been the golden girl—perfect grades, a perfect future. But behind the polished exterior, she’s unraveling.She’s been drifting—shutting down, pulling away, and pretending she’s fine when she’s anything but. Worried, her parents send her to spend the summer with her grandmother in the small town of Shiz Hollow, hoping a change of scenery will bring back the girl she used to be.But Glinda isn’t sure she wants to come back at all.
She’s ready to let go. But before she can fall, a pair of strong hands pull her back. It’s Elphaba Thropp—angry, breathless, and unwilling to let her disappear. In that moment, a deal is made: one summer for Glinda to give life another chance. One summer where Elphaba will help her find the beauty in it again.

Summary
"The sun was rising, fingers of glorious orange, red and yellow crawling across the sky. The window appeared as a frame around a picture, dawn’s ascent bursting from the folds of a delicate skirt the color of burnt copper. I sighed and turned back to Peeta, holding his hand against my cheek." After all they have experienced, Katniss and Peeta realize that things can be good again.

Summary
"You're an awful wife, sweetheart." He's said worse, and so have I, but something about this, maybe the fact that this is the second time I've been told the same thing in one day, makes me burst into tears. Katniss discovers that being married is hard.

Summary
This fic is, firstly, a love story. It is, secondly, a fun goofy time. Thirdly, it’s a case fic.
JJ and Emily have been dancing around each other, slowly growing into something more than they were before. But before they can work out exactly what, a case demands them to put everything on hold, and to attempt to navigate strong emotions and growing affections while trying to lure out an unsub.
-------
“Hey, hey, hey,” Morgan interrupted, holding his hands up. “The unsub just violently murdered a woman a hundred feet from where we’re standing, and we’re seriously talking about sending Prentiss undercover? What happened to ‘no one goes out alone’?”
Rossi looked at him. “Not alone, no. That wouldn’t work. He watches his victims for at least a few days, and only targets women that he knows fits his type. Prentiss would need a partner.”
All eyes in the room went to JJ.

Summary
Galinda needed to make sure everyone at Shiz University knew that she was perfect, and to never allow even a hint of a crack in that veneer to be perceived. She was expected to meet her well-off husband at this school, after all. A flaw in how she presented herself here would not be tolerated.
---
Galinda Upland's whole life has been planned out for her in advance. She is supposed to be the perfect young lady. Unfortunately, she has been saddled with a chronic illness and a green roommate, neither of which were part of the perfect plan.
