One of my favorite parts of the movie. I just think they are sooo cute together. I really liked the textures on Fiyero's skin. I have the full breakdown of this illustration on my YT channel.

book!fiyero's death is like. fucking devastating man. like...having a conversation where elphaba says bystander deaths are acceptable and him disagreeing then, later, her telling him she loves him and thus his death, despite being one of those innocent bystanders, is unnacceptable. aka her realizing she's not willing to pay the price of innocent lives for the sake of the revolution. and him--the one person she wanted to protect, the person who made her realize the value of life--fucking dying anyways. maybe she's not willing to pay the price of civilian lives, but not everyone feels that way and so fiyero dies. fiyero, who challenges her rigid sense of morality, who poses the ultimate question of what she's willing to do in order to do what's right, who gives her the answer that there are some things she's not willing to do, who gives her the hope that she can love and be loved. fiyero, who gets killed because of how he's affected her, changed her, loved her. god. im like. he's present in this book for 1.5 sections and im distraught.

the way Glinda’s name change happens in the book is just so much more it always makes me a little upset of how shallow it is in the musical

like it’s more or less a trauma response for her. Because it’s still more or less because of Dr. Dillamond, but it’s because Dr. Dillamond was murdered

And its not only “I feel bad about getting upset that Dr Dillamond said my name wrong” but it’s also like, a response to Glinda realizing the kind of world she’s in

Because Glinda is the only person who would immediately know that Madame Morrible was responsible.

Because the only witness was Ama Clutch, who immediately upon witnessing it fell ill with a relapse of a disease that she supposedly had, and the only people who knew about this supposed fake illness was Galinda and Morrible.

And then suddenly Ama Clutch has it for real and right when she could reveal what happened to Dr. Dillamond?

Glinda obviously knows that Morrible is involved because they point out immediately that she won’t go to see Morrible anymore and when she tries to reassign her and Elphaba to the main dormitory, Glinda just accepts it when she had been repulsed by the idea before. It’s Elphaba who has push against that and to get Nanny (and Nessarose) to Shiz so that they can stay roommates and “preserve Glinda’s dignity.”

Like Galinda would never have let herself meekly get shuffled in with the common students. That’s what got her in this in the first place.

But Glinda knows shes in a dangerous world with dangerous people who can and will use her. It’s not all social climbing and polite company, it’s two people she knew having their lives ended and her being directly tied up in that, and knowing that she knows who did it and that she can’t do anything.

It’s a very, very scary world suddenly and that’s the reason why Galinda makes way for Glinda. She can’t be a naive girl anymore and literally has to become someone else to go on

my fav line from the book is still “i am married. just not to a man” and then elphaba proceeds to cry for the first time ever

musical elphaba:

"come with me" "where?" "to the emerald city!"

book elphaba:

"come with me" "where?" "to hell, you dumbass, where do you think?"
