BEHOLD

[drachis917]

One complaint I have with Wicked For Good that I haven't seen a single other person talk about is that Fiyero's Horse Feldspur has zero lines of dialogue. It's a very minor thing, yes, but to me Fiyero and Feldspur's friendship is a subtle indicator for him being on Elphaba's side in the Animal rights argument. Their casual conversation, the use of language ("we have just been spurned by a girl" instead of "I"), it supported that Fiyero was a kind person. And now Feldspur has seemingly been reduced to just another horse. I was expecting a little moment of the two of them in private like "Sir are you sure this is a good idea" "Careful, can't have the Gale Force find out about you" or something like that, but we get nothing! And Glinda is no better! She just grabs him and runs off to find Elphaba. It was a dramatic scene, I know, and those moments work better with no dialogue, but come on, not even a "hey can I please ride you"? I am annoyed that the Animal plot as a whole was kind of brushed aside, but this feels especially egregious.

i think the most aromantic thing i've ever done is when my friend told me a guy kissed her the only thing i could think to say for several seconds was "im sorry" before deciding on "i don't know what to say to that" before going back to playing bingo-

Anyone but her

Hey gang I’m back for a bit of chaos if you haven’t already go read ‘anyone but her’ as this is a continuation of one of my favourite fics I’ve ever wrote. I’d also like to say thankyou for the recognition my silly little story got from so many people, even to this day I keep getting notifications from people liking the posts, I love you all and even if this isn’t seen or pushed back onto all of your feeds (I fear this will most likely flop so hard) here it is anyway, have fun.

time skip a few years into the future everyone is in college now and nothing has really changed. Damien and Cady are still causing chaos. Tess and Aaron are now in a two year relationship. Regina and the plastics are still being plastic. But most importantly Janis and Y/N are still Janis and Y/N. New friends are formed and new futures are to be made.

——————————-

(Pre time skip filler)

The rest of junior year seemed to fly by, y/n and Janis kept getting to know each other more whilst y/n kept helping Janis study and lead her to get higher grades. Aaron and Tessa FINALLY confessed their feelings for each other and went to spring fling together, winning queen and king. Damien got his drivers license and decided to travel to the beach every day with Tessa to learn rugby. Cady got perfect grades and later got into an advanced class that would look good on her college applications.

During summer break they all quickly realised senior year approached, some got jobs whilst some decided to spend their break having fun.

Eventually senior year rolled around everything got incredibly stressful. Y/n fell back into drugs. Cady had a mental breakdown (multiple times), Damien even got into a relationship with a jock…

But alas they all pulled through

And they all promised to get into the same college. Which by some miracle they all did.

Tessa study’s film production

Aaron study’s sports science

Damien study’s theatre

Cady study’s history and math

Janis study’s art and art history

Y/N study’s art and fashion

So, I finally got diagnosed with ADHD (and autism)

Honestly, I don't know if I would've started asking for help without hearing people like Markiplier openly talk about their struggles with ADHD.

I’ve seen too many shows (mostly kids shows but still [id argue that’s even more important]) almost romanticise people pleasing in a way.. the characters are treated as almost heroic and the only consequences to people pleasing is their own pain and it’s treated as heroic… even when the characters learn their lesson it’s treated as “aww poor baby, you care so much about other people you don’t see yourself” which is true but dosent feel like actual criticism

Heck the characters in those shows end up getting exactly what people pleasers want due to their people pleasing, love and friendship so it’s refreshing to have digital circus show the reality of such behaviour in ragatha, she’s not this hero everyone loves that sacrifices herself too much, she actually struggles to connect with others cause others are not sure if she’s genuine or not.

As someone who was a huge people pleaser in middle school I think I would stop much quicker if people pleasing was shown in it’s pure, ugly form like in tadc and not as some sort of a heroic almost positive trait that just costs you your own pain. It costs you genuine connection and dosent make you a better person necessarily, it’s just another unhealthy coping mechanism tadc is not for kids but I feel like it’s a show I’d watch back then and it would be very helpful
