In Utter Disbelief

Thinking about how Glinda never really hated that hat. She actually really loved it. It was dear to her. Her granny made it for her and probably played pretend with her, making Glinda’s dreams of becoming a sorceress come true. Glinda was just embarrassed when Pfannee and Shen Shen found it, so she pretended to hate it.

Maybe when she said she didn’t hate anyone that much to give it away, she really meant she didn’t love anyone that much— she didn’t trust anyone to understand how she could love a hat so hideous.

Maybe she knew Elphaba would understand. Maybe she knew Elphaba would take care of it.

And maybe Elphaba proved her right. And now, Glinda gets to admire as the most fearless person she has ever met cherishes her hat as dearly as she did.

Her intrusive thought won

part 2: ✨ loathing residue ✨

saw wicked live again the other day and while i’ve seen it many times as slime tutorials, cameras cannot capture the poetry that is the finale like it is in person. 

fiyero holding out his hand for elphaba and having to actually say “come”. she goes to reach for it, but she pulls back at the last second once glinda starts singing. her literally WALKING AWAY from fiyero to match where glinda is but just on the ground is so emotional. 

meanwhile she turns back for a second and fiyero is still holding out his hand for her to take but she stays where she is to sing the reprise of for good with glinda. and omg the ozians singing “no one mourns the wicked…” in between their lines AHH

then elphaba joins fiyero while no one mourns the wicked starts up for real. glinda has to snap into social figure mode, wipe her tears, and start from the beginning. tell elphaba’s story to move on with her life, as elphaba leaves part of her life behind. 

no no cause the thing is- i think its super curious that within the wicked fandom glinda is really fucking popular. we love our little blonde witch over here.

but the casual wicked viewers, people just watching a movie, are almost always anti-glinda. I've seen a couple of like post-wicked-coming-out-on-peacock-first-watch videos on tiktok now and they're all like "fuck glinda, she's not her friend"😭

Here, take these

Ahahahahaha I’m so fine with this

that's true love

alicent feels the vibrations of rhaenyra kissing another woman and immediately goes to drown herself in the lake. real lesbian representation right there
