Elphaba had never been good at being still.

Even as a baby, she had been restless, always fidgeting, always thinking, always chewing on something—her fingers, her shoulders, even the hem of her blankets.

Which was why, when she stopped moving, stopped chewing, and simply laid limp in her mother’s arms, it was terrifying.

Her mother had felt it before she saw it—the unnatural heat radiating from her small body, the way her breathing was just slightly off, the way her normally sharp, bright eyes looked dull.

She had pressed her hand to Elphaba’s forehead, fingers trembling.

Burning.

The fever had settled in quickly, like a weight pressing down on her small frame.

Frex had paced the room. Back and forth, back and forth, his hands clenching and unclenching, as if there was something he could do—as if walking fast enough could fix her.

“She bites herself,” he muttered under his breath, running a hand through his hair. “What if she—what if she put something in her mouth, what if—”

“She’s sick,” his wife snapped, holding Elphaba closer to her chest, like she could will the fever away. “Not cursed. Not poisoned. Just sick.”

Frex flinched but said nothing.

Turtle Heart, who had been sitting quietly by the fire, finally spoke.

“I have something that might help.”

Frex turned, desperate. “You do?”

Turtle Heart nodded once, standing fluidly, his long coat shifting as he moved. “An herb, boiled in water. It won’t cure her, but it may bring the fever down.”

Frex exhaled sharply, nodding. “Fine. Fine, do it.”

His wife didn’t respond. She was whispering something, rocking Elphaba slowly, one hand brushing over her damp, dark hair.

Elphaba made a small, unhappy noise, shifting slightly, and her mother’s breath hitched in relief—

Only to freeze when she saw Elphaba’s tiny, sharp teeth digging into the flesh of her own shoulder.

“No,” she said sharply, pulling her hand away. “No, Elphaba, don’t—”

Elphaba made a miserable whimper in response and weakly tried to chew on her own fingers instead.

Her mother caught her wrist before she could.

“Frex,” she said, panic creeping into her voice now. “She’s doing it again.”

Frex turned, eyes wide and stricken, stepping closer.

“Why does she do that?” his wife asked, her voice shaking now. “It’s like she—like she has to.”

Elphaba whimpered again, tiny fingers curling, seeking something, anything—

And then, to everyone’s horror, she latched onto her mother’s arm instead.

Frex pulled back in shock. “Fabala—”

His wife didn’t flinch. Didn’t shake her off.

She simply pressed a soft kiss to the top of Elphaba’s burning head, shifted her arm closer to her small mouth, and let her bite down.

Hard.

Frex inhaled sharply, his hands clenching into fists. “She’s—she’s hurting you—”

“She’s a baby,” his wife murmured, closing her eyes briefly as she felt those tiny, needle-sharp teeth press into her skin. “She’s sick. If this comforts her, it doesn’t matter.”

Turtle Heart watched silently, his expression unreadable.

Elphaba’s small shaking body finally stilled, her tiny hands going limp against her mother’s nightgown.

And then, for the first time in hours, her heavy eyelids fluttered—and she finally, finally fell asleep.

Her mother exhaled shakily, pressing her lips against her child’s hair.

And held her tighter.
