i don’t think anyone talks enough about how romantic the dance scene between elphaba and glinda really was. it’s such a pivotal moment for both of them, but especially glinda. in some ways i believe this is the moment she goes from galinda to glinda— this is the moment she begins to drop the mean girl façade and not try to force herself to see past elphaba’s differences, but face them head on and love and accept them.

she leaves behind fiyero, her friends, her judgements, inhibitions, and shame; everything that had been defining her as a character up until that moment. when glinda whispers to fiyero, “she does, she’s just good at pretending not to,” after he says elphaba doesn’t care what others think, that’s because she’s pretending too. when they dance, they become mirror images of one another. glinda copies her movements, lets elphaba guide her, and it’s their shared vulnerability that guides the crowd behind them.

and yet, it’s the first moment neither of them truly care about people’s judgements, their own perceived reputations, or anything but each other. in that moment, the crowd disappears, and all that’s left is elphaba and glinda, closer and more intimate than either of them have ever been with anyone. in my mind, that’s the moment they really fell in love

Always wanted to do one those Gelphie polls but like discuss ur answers in the comments or smth bc like let’s talk about it! Dhsjsjsj

This is poll #1: Who fell first?

I get Glinda fell first but would she be able to admit it because of her comphet…

I also get Elphaba falling first bc imagine her finally meeting someone who sees her beyond her green skin. Yah Glinda loathes her but it’s not bc of something as shallow as the color of her skin. It’s because when they first met Elphaba challenged her instead automatically adoring her like everyone else, and it’s because for the first time, Glinda didn’t get her way but instead Elphaba got what she wanted, and it’s because Elphaba took up Glinda’s space when she was suppose to have a private suite, and it’s because Elphaba is so brilliant Glinda finally has a worthy academic competitor, and it’s because Elphaba is an outcast and holds her head high in it while for Glinda, that would be the blonde’s greatest nightmare!!! Like finally someone hates Elphaba for who she is!!! Gosh I’d be in love too!! And if you look through the “What is This Feeling” montage, you can clearly see Elphaba is lovingggg their little games/ rivalry. Like she’s constantly smiling and smirking throughout!!! And like girly waits on a balcony just to get Glinda’s reaction to her tomfoolery and then she just leaves once she’s able to see the look on Glinda’s face dhsjsjsj

Elphaba was kinda insane for telling Glinda to wait for her and then immediately disappearing for 20 years

Glinda is also insane for actually waiting
