Son of a Witch, Gregory Maguire

thinking about book glinda crying alone on her balcony while everyone else celebrates elphaba's death and how movie/musical glinda would absolutely do the same

So Buck gets injured, as per usual (you can use the lightning strike) everyone is stressed and Eddie begins CPR.

Except he gives the 2 ventilations by mouth, no face mask, just lips to lips.

And Hen is standing behind, half brought out of her focus on getting Buck’s heart beating again because Eddie really did not need to do that.

That is not in their protocols anymore and Hen is holding the bag valve mask and 02 that they should be using.

But no, because through roughly 5 sets of CPR, Eddie is doing mouth breaths. Which they aren’t supposed to be giving anymore. Right.

When they finally get spontaneous return of circulation and Buck is alive again, Hen just starts psychoanalyzing Eddie because what straight man breaks protocol to get his lips on his best friend?

He used a less effective strategy… and just… wow there’s nothing gayer then going ‘the cure to your lack of life is these lips’
