Glinda: "A few years ago I lost my best friend."
Elphaba: *from across the room*
Elphaba: "Quit telling people I'm dead!"
Glinda: "I can still hear her voice."
You know I had to do it.
Also, how do Spotted and Tiger react to Cloudkit? Especially Spotted now that we've seen her speech about letting kittypets in!
-🐻
Tiger: You're telling me, small Fireheart is kin to this ball of snow that's almost as big as Brindleface's kits despite being like a moon younger? No, no way. I admit if it had been freshly named Fireheart I would've probably rolled my eyes, but Cloudkit is just a kit, and he will only remember the forest... That makes him Clan now.
Spotted: I just... Look, if Fireheart lied about not visiting kittypets, how much has he lied to Bluestar? And she just lets it pass? Hmm, I wonder how uch she'll let it slide with this one
My conspiracy theory is that one of the reasons they fired Stephanie J. Block for the role of Elphaba in 2000 and replaced her with Idina Menzel at the end of the OBC workshops is because SJB played the role SO gay that it was quickly crossing the line of plausible deniability. Like she doesn't seem to be able to help herself.
And thank god she eventually got to play the role on Broadway (arguably one of the best - if not THE best - actresses who ever did), because we finally got to see her get super fucking handsy and stare lovingly into Glinda's eyes inches away from her face for three hours:
Like holy shit why do you keep looking at Annaleigh Ashford like you want to eat her alive??
Plus I cannot emphasize enough just how effective and moving this particular version of For Good is. Straight up feels like wedding vows.
(Ironically, she also has the best chemistry with Fiyero's character, and arguably the very sweetest performance of As Long As You're Mine in the entire slime tutorial universe.* So I'm just reading this as a Thropple Truther performance.)
*But that's just because she was (and still is) literally married to him. So they get uh. A little carried away in their performance. *cut to Sebastian Arcelus holding lantern up, his face covered in green makeup from aggressively making out with his wife on stage for several minutes* Apparently the makeup team HATED that song for them.
The funny thing is that in your traditional Superman story, Lois Lane is enamoured with big strong heroic Superman and wouldn't give mild-mannered reporter Clark Kent a second glance.
Then in Supergirl you have Lena Luthor, who's like "I need that reporter carnally (oh and there's also a superhero around that's cool)"
He wants to make a deal
@sakurabraches not sure if you still remember, but one time I left you a comment about Dorothy and Glinda being at a Wendy’s post act 2. Finally got around to it :D
Need Gelphie artists to draw Elphaba in this shirt (in pink ofc)
haven't seen anyone do this yet so...

Man, the producers and writers of Supergirl on The CW really did just lie, gaslight and queerbait for sport, huh?
Kara almost dying and her biggest pain/loss of all time was losing her HOME, and hurting LENA.
LENA’S FACE was the last thing she’d see.
I repeat, in the Crisis crossover script they really had Lena as Kara’s biggest loss in life — equal to that of watching her home planet destroyed and losing her family as a child.
They could’ve added in the time she hurt Alex or the idea of losing Alex, or losing Mon-El more than once, worrying about her friends, etc.
But they really just said nope… in her final moments of life, Supergirl would be thinking about her home planet, and Lena Luthor.
LENA’S FACE WAS THE LAST THING KARA PICTURED BEFORE SHE (NEARLY) DIED.
That’s some next level romantic soulmate shit. Between Maines’s book confirming they knew what they were doing and it was queerbait, and a SGCW / Batwoman writer making them official in the DC/Arrowverse canon follow up comic via a romantic date on the page and online confirmation when asked —
Kara/Lena really were that ship.
Supercorp really was endgame.
Wicked is a story about everyone being doomed because two gay people thought they were straight.
