Ahahahahaha I’m so fine with this
my beautiful princess with a disorder
Galinda & Peaches
Just a sketch of Galinda and her daughter Peaches from Eternally Yours. They’ve been through a lot recently, but they’re making it work. No bond is more potent than that of a mother with strong genes and her fully deaf, on crutches flower child 🌻🌻🌻
The Gelphie found family is strong between them; these girls need some much needed loving in their lives 😔
This is the same paper that we see her get back in this scene, in which we can see this was a large essay too.
There's nothing rushed to her handwriting, this was not an essay done at the last minute, and still, it shows several signs of a learning disability and/or dysgraphia.
Misspells her name in the second line
Wrong and inconsistent pronoun usage
Her margin spacing is consistent with someone who can't do proper syllable division
Immature transcription (see: writes her "um"s)
Limited vocabulary
Shows signs of: difficulty expressing ideas in writing, having a limited vocabulary, mispronouncing words or using a wrong word that sounds similar, and having trouble organizing what she wants to say. Those are all symptoms of a learning disability.
Less of a checklist sign, but her handwriting is very round and careful, while still not being consistently sized (see unfashionable). This and the margin sizes are very common in kids with bad dysgraphia who are made to take rigorous calligraphy courses to "fix the problem". Courses that work on the visual without remedying its underlying issues and causes. Form over content if you will.
Looking at this very blatant sign that she has a learning disability and immediately defaulting to calling her names (yes calling her stupid and saying Elphaba is a moronsexual for this counts), asking how she got into Shiz, or defending Dillamond in doing the very first thing teachers are told NOT to do with disabled students (re: calling attention to it in front of the entire class) is ableist!
Question! With the part WAYYYY back in the beginning where the clan split into two, how'd you do that in game? Were some of them lost? Were they still in the same clan in game but you pretended they split? Or did you manually move them?
Okay so! I no longer have the screenshots of me doing this, but what I did was I made a new save file. I then copied all of the folders in VaporClan's save file folder thing and replaced the ones in the new save file with those. So I had 2 identical save files (with a different name)
I exiled Fire, Frost, Wolf and Fog in one save file. And in the other I exiled Rain, Branch, Soot and Mantis
When the Clans merged together, I added Rain, Forest and Pale into the VaporClan save file, leaving Ice alone in her own little save file (that used to be the MantisClan one.) This save file would be the one all her kids is born into. When the Clans merged and she went off alone, i played her save file alongside VaporClan to see what she'd get up to
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."
In utter disbelief
I think the real tragedy of Wicked is that no matter how many times you see it or listen to it or whatever you believe that this time something will be different, this time Elphaba will stay or Glinda will go or Elphaba comes back but it stays the same. The alternate paths are just barely out of reach and that’s the real gut punch
haven't seen anyone do this yet so...
@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
