Hey! I designed this GAY shirt that I really like. If you could help me out by voting it on the link below it would be great! It's for a contest, I could win some money and the possibility that this shirt is sold on the Asos website. The link is in Spanish sorry, first you have to click the "No soy un robot" (I'm not a robot) and then " VOTA AHORA" (vote now). Thank you so much! Yay gay avocado shirts! http://m.asos.com/es/descubre/students/basico-sin-limites/#/vote/840
So if glinda and elphaba take pictures together would you call it
a gelphie
“Everyone has their own slightly different interpretation, even with all the similarities of what we have to bring as Elphaba, because we’re all different people. That’s what I think makes it really interesting.”
Queer Conventions in the musical Wicked - Stacy Wolf
I’ve never given Wicked much thought beyond like, a general appreciation of Defying Gravity, but then @gelphie‘s art/fic sucker punched me into loving these two with a fervent passion and tbh I’m pretty grateful
what are some of your favorite wicked fics?
I kind of tend to go off other people’s rec lists because 1) i’m not that big of a fanfic reader tbqh 2) this fandom is kinda ancient and 3) fanfiction.net is a nightmare to browse so i need someone to help me guide that wasteland.
Considering you’ve probably seen this recommended before I’ll also add what I think makes them unique. Let’s start with the writers who are still active in alphabetical order:
GretchenMaurice
If you like your gelphie slowburn, there’s no better writer than GretchenMaurice. With a total word count of over 400k you’ll be quite content for a while (pretty sure she actually needs writing to survive at this point).
I love how she has grown in her skills so visibly, and all her fics are absolute gems. Also, while we’re at it, don’t forget to follow her on tumblr @lily-onher-grave bc every once awhile she reblogs one of those prompt games and your dash becomes a complete party of gelphie drabbles! :D
neednot’s Far Safer
Nita hasn’t published that many gelphie fics yet, but definitely keep an eye on her! When I read her work I always feel like every word matters. As if she handpicked it and placed it and no other construction could work. Definitely the most “poetic” gelphie writer. The flow in her writing is magnificent.
Also, if you don’t already, totally follow her @need-not! She is wonderful & kind and deserves all the love!
Wagyubeefy
I mean, at this point, who doesn’t know Emmanuel’s work in the gelphie fandom? Their work is almost a character study in the deepest details. Their characters are so fleshed out and feel so real and human. They aren’t afraid to make their characters incredibly flawed and isn’t afraid either to show the ugly sides of our beloved faves. Really interesting concepts and has definitely influenced my reading of the book.
*Note, I haven’t read all their work bc most of it is explicit and I’m sex-repulsed lol. I have been reading Shame Machine though, because Em’s been really good with warnings and letting me know where the explicit stuff happens. So even tho I can’t vouch for all their work, knowing Em it’s still excellent! Have fun in the E-rated corner if that’s your thing. :P
If you don’t follow them already @gelphie I’m just assuming you’re new here. In which case, welcome! :D
Okay and now for the “Oldies but Goldies” in alphabetical order:
Beta Nova - Emerald City Lies
This might be my favorite fanfic period. I’ve read this fic over and over again, even though I’m a person who barely reads anything twice. It has incredible sharp dialogue and wit. God, I’ve laughed so much with this fic. It’s exactly my sense of humor. IT’S NOT EVEN FINISHED! IT PROBABLY NEVER WILL BE! and I still love this fic so goddamn much. go figure.
Beta Nova has exactly two other fics, both under 1,5k. One is fluffy and domestic and lovely, the other rips your heart out yet somehow summarizes gelphie perfectly in such few words. Love this writer.
jemandhyel’s A Very Bad Idea
I would’ve never discovered this fic all over on livejournal if not for Em’s gelphie fic rec list, but boy am I glad that I did! It’s Shiz era. It’s careless fun. It’s hella in character and absolutely lovely. I would say more, but honestly? It’s more fun if you go in blind. Just read it. Just read it and have an absolute blast of a time.
RidiculousMavis
There’s a reason why you see this talented asshole on every gelphie fic rec list ever. Universally acknowledged as one of the best writers in this fandom. RM’s work will fuck you up in the best way possible. Read it. Read all of it. Yes. even the Avaric-Elphaba bodyswap one. Even the glessa one. Yes. Do it. Have fun. Have an absolute fucking blast.
(Personal faves amongst the faves: The Last True Eminent Thropp and The Variables in Our Equation but again. just read all their work. Phenomenal).
The Noble Arduenna’s The Narrative Strain
I found the concept of this fic absolutely fascinating. The overall question of this fic is “what would happen if the story was written by someone else?” which, given it’s fanfic, is wonderfully meta.
If this was published after Hamilton came out, I can guarantee you it would’ve had a “Who Lives Who Dies Who Tells Your Story” quote at the beginning. Really well executed AU.
And fuck it, while we’re at it, might as well plug my own fanfic Walls of Sanctuary right? I’m a big fan of clashing different stories together. This time it’s gelphie in a Hunchback of Notre Dame timeline. Fun times! :D Tomorrow we get another update woo!
Not sure if there’s anything new here for you anon, but it’s always great to reread these fanfics!
how to come out to your friends, Glinda style: stage the most aesthetic kiss ever to happen during one of your picnics, then have the moment immediately ruined by your girlfriend being extremely shy and storming off
and because I knew you, because I knew you, I have been changed for g o o d.
