Elphaba being an idealist while Glinda is a realist always gets to me. Like you would expect the girl who’s been ostracized all her life for being green to be cynical and think that the world can’t change. But no, Elphie is all starry eyed and hopeful that she can change the world. That she can fix its wrongs and create a better future, not just for her but for every citizen of Oz.
Meanwhile Glinda, the girl who’s had everything, admiration, money, etc, knows how the world is. She knows that the world is led by those who are popular despite their talent or lack thereof. She knows how to play the game, knows the rules of the game, and knows that not playing by those rules will make you an outsider. She’s already resigned to the world as it is.
gelphie ponies but i couldn’t decide between pegasus or unicorn glinda so i did both hehe
Ariana Grande shares a voice note of her and Cynthia Erivo rehearsing what is this feeling in 2022.

Horrendous violence on my cellular device every day since the movie dropped.
I have once again underestimated the internet. My bad. When I wrote my dark!Glinda AU, I wanted her to be insane and scary and violent.
She is.
But my commenters?
BLINDFOLD ME MOMMY LETS BANG!
And I am once again reminded why I love the internet :) we are apparently thirsting over the CRAZY PINK KILLER LESBIAN and that’s just fine with me 👍
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.
With all the whacking she did, I think Glinda would love this as a weapon (and it's cute!!)
that's true love
