THANK YOU FOR THIS OPPORTUNITY TO RAMBLE ABOUT THEM TOAST ILYSM
okay. imagine a girl who thinks she knows everything in the whole world and has her life planned out at age 16 despite having no concept of the real world at all. theoretically, she knows how to do everything.
now imagine a guy who is dancing through life and has all these social skills and actual experiences but won't apply himself to academics or anything because "WHEN WILL I EVER NEED THIS IN THE REAL WORLD...." & "i have waaay more important stuff to be doing right now." he can practically do anything but probably could not tell you how he did it.
but both of these approaches eventually hit a wall. you can't navigate the world without experience, and you can't have everything you want without knowing how to manage everything.
but like. do you know how much they could learn from each other? how many social cues ruggie could help riddle figure out? how many solutions riddle could offer to balancing ruggie's schedule so he doesn't overwork himself with like. 7 jobs while still being able to provide for himself and his family & stuff? how ruggie could help riddle be something other than whatever mrs. rosehearts wanted? how they could learn how to kiss from one another because there is literally zero way either one knows how to do it??? (lol)
ruggie is just a pretty down-to-earth, follower-y (but can stand up when its important), lowkey cowardly, funny guy and riddle is assertive, likes to lead (but definitely needs to be told when to chill out), guy who doesn't know when to back down or quit and also has No clue what fun looks like. (they're also t4t to me; that's unrelated but idk where else to put it.) they need each other i think
they're like fiyero & elphaba from wicked to me but i do not have a specific song from the musical to give you. um but here's guillotine (jon bellion), puppy princess (hot freaks), a beautiful mess (jason mraz), promises (hadestown).
