Very quick Tbhk wicked au for me and me alone. It doesn’t make a whole lot of sense but it felt right.

New chapter pissed me off

(Spoilers )

They just killed everyone off which means when they return to the og world likely no one will remember what happened aside from yashiro. Aidairo had a really good concept with having everyone deal with that loss but now it’s just going to be undone? It happens so often where they’ll have something really cool and they just don’t do anything about it?

Terus such an interesting character and they just killing him so if he returns he won’t be changed at all is such a waste tbh. Terus wasted a lot honestly like the craziest shit happens to him but it doesn’t really affect the plot at all.

We should’ve seen teru return to the og world after losing kou, getting him back, and still acting like we saw him act in todays chapter. That would’ve been so interesting!! After the far shore incident Aoi and Akane both showed significant change and growth but teru who almost died didn’t after he and kou made up. This could’ve been something that really propelled his story forward and raised the stakes more. Him scaring the others when acting violent was so interesting! It would’ve been so cool seeing how they all interact with him once he becomes more reckless. Maybe how he interacts with others would change as well, but now we will never know 😑.

Idk it just really pissed me off that they chose to do this , it’s such a waste and undid what could’ve been a really interesting storyline once everyone returns.

Or worse yashiro returns and everyone is still dead 💀 but tbh I’d prefer that over them being unchanged.

I saw wicked again today and these teenagers talked the entire movie full volume, ran around the theatre, jumped on the chairs, and tried singing along.

So naturally once the film ended I started talking about part 2 spoilers loud enough for them to hear and those kids looked absolutely dumbfounded.

[helen-cooper-fan-account]

I think I’m the only person in the wicked fandom who HATES the idea of Dorothy being a big part of part 2

I do not want her perspective i don’t want her to team up with elphaba I don’t want her to have a song I don’t want her to be more than a few shots that don’t even show her face.

Idea for a hamlet production:

The opening night, the program says The Tragedy of Hamlet, Prince of Denmark and it's performed accurately, word for word. The play, however, closes exactly after Horatio tells Fortinbras that he will tell what has happened. The lights hone in on him, cradling a dead Hamlet and wearing bloody clothes, before the play ends there.

The second night, the program says The Tragedy of Hamlet, Prince of Denmark, as Told By Horatio. The play begins with a small spotlight over Horatio in the same bloody clothes, cradling a dead Hamlet. He says, "Let me tell you how this all began." Everything much everything is the same as opening night except for a few wording changes.

But after that, it goes off the rails.

The subsequent programs say The Tragedy of Hamlet, Prince of Denmark, as Remembered by Horatio (One/Two/Three/etcetera). Each night more changes are made. Early on Polonius shows up with an absolutely ridiculous mustache. Claudius' hair colour changes at some point midway through. Towards the end Ophelia just starts naming random flowers. Laertes, when he's angry/sad/feeling a lot, just straight up starts lapsing into French.

Each night the spotlight on Horatio in the opening grows a little bigger until the audience starts seeing background nobles, then soldiers, and then a figure wearing a crown sitting on a throne who isn't facing the audience. Each night the Ghost looks less like King Hamlet and starts looking more like Horatio's Hamlet. Each night, whenever Horatio is on-scene, Hamlet stops speaking in Shakespearean and starts speaking plainly, because Horatio always understood what he meant.

On the closing night, The Tragedy of Hamlet, Prince of Denmark, as Remembered by Horatio (Finale), it's all gone wrong. People are speaking lines they're suppose to say later or earlier in the play, or they're speaking someone else's lines. The opening scene is fully lit, and the audience can finally see that Horatio is talking to Fortinbras. The Ghost is now fully Hamlet. Horatio spends the entire play wearing the bloody clothes he's worn when Hamlet's died. Every time Hamlet isn't looking at him Horatio is looking at him, heartbroken, grieving, sad. Hamlet is the only one who's still saying accurate lines, except for when Horatio is on-scene and he's speaking modern English.

At the end, the play continues after Hamlet has died. Fortinbras commands that Hamlet be given a grand funeral, and Hamlet's body is taken away, with everyone following it out like a funeral procession. Horatio is left as the last one on the stage, staring at his bloody hands.

It is very, very obvious, the closing night, that Horatio has gone mad.

Someone on twitter or something said people should draw teru and kou as Ivan the terrible and his son Ivan and I made this drawing before that post was made so I like to think that I’m a real trend setter

So tbhk twilight au when? Hoa hoa hoa hoa hoa hoa

Low key find it a bit hard to believe teru actually has a crush on aoi when in this new timeline where they’re literally engaged he doesn’t actually want a romantic relationship with her (and yea he kind of alludes to it being weird that he didn’t want one since he likes her? BUT why would he not like her in this timeline if they actually “get” to be together.)

Maybe teru is just in love with the idea of aoi and not actually aoi herself? Like maybe in the og timeline he sees aoi as a concept of a “perfect life” which he loves the idea of but in this new timeline when he actually spends time with aoi he doesn’t like her?

Idk I need more people to talk about this

[helen-cooper-fan-account]

I really like what you have to say about terus teasing. That’s a big part of why it’s so hard for me to buy his love. It’s like the boy who cried wolf, he jokes about it so many times it’s so difficult to believe him at this point. Akane clearly didn’t believe him at first when he was “honest” about it until he realized that teru looked pretty authentic about his feelings. That acts as our confirmation that teru likes aoi, but even then teru doesn’t say it himself. (Granted he doesn’t say much about himself)

Something that confirmed it better to me at least was his surprise that the teru of this timeline didn’t want to be with aoi. He didn’t say that specifically but he was kinda like “oh well it makes sense for aoi to not wanna be with me because of Akane but..”

Obviously situations are different so the world isn’t the exact same but every other relationship we’ve seen still holds true? So wouldn’t teru of this timeline also like aoi? It almost makes me wonder maybe this is a way for teru to realize he doesn’t actually like her at least not in the way he thinks?

At this point I don’t know which I’d prefer, his feelings being left pretty open ended like this, or solid confirmation. Because of the general consensus that his crush was handled poorly maybe leaving it open ended would be better so people could come up with their own ideas that best fit with their understanding. I personally dont want the storyline to continue much, I dont even like Akane and aoi being together so its not that I dont want teru getting in the way of it. I also used to hate terukane with a burning passion so its not that I think aois getting in the way of anything either 💀

(I swear to god if the series ends with Akane dead and a flash forward shows teru and aoi married I will pull a kou in that one chapter (I’ve been severely traumatized by stupid flash forwards))

I saw @helen-cooper-fan-account mention their opinion on Teru's apparent "crush" on Akane Aoi and I would like to share my own. I don't think he likes Aoi romantically, I think when he thinks about her he sees someone who he can relate to. Someone like him who can't shake the perception of their perfection. That's why he has an easier time just coming over and striking up meaningless conversations about nothing to her. She unlike most like her would be honest with him no sugar coating or flattery. He finds comfort in the fact she's not interested in him, they treat each other like normal people like any other person or as normal as they can get as the prince and princess of Kakome.

Also Teru knows Aoi's feeling for Akane and Akane's feelings towards her (he teases about it quite often). And that why in he "new and better" world he is uneasy at first about his arrangement with Aoi. He doesn't want her to love him and why he becomes more comfortable with joking about their relationship once she clarifies their her feelings for him and her love for another(Akane). Now he can go back to teasing, joking and bully Akane without actually hurting him over his relationship that isn't even romantic to begin with.

Back then he said "I like Akane" because it was expected of him to like her and she did the same. They know that they don't view each other that way so they can say that without skipping a beat with full confidence that the other won't get the wrong idea.

Well that's what I had to say about it if anyone wants to correct me or say their peace go right ahead.

This take goes crazy hard I love your perspective on it. I agree it’s way too vague 😭. When I tell people who stopped reading tbhk a while ago that teru likes aoi they always get confused. It just wasn’t properly built up in my opinion.

I really appreciate how a lot about teru is told through visual storytelling and small details you gotta kinda connect the dots for, it makes him a really interesting character. However with something like a love triangle that’s typically something you want the audience to buy, you want people to support their fav pairing and feel connected to it in some way. From what I’ve seen only a small handful ships aoi and teru, far more people seem to hate the plot line or at the very least confused by it.

And while I do hate love triangles, I’m a sucker for unrequited love so I wish it was a storyline I felt passionate about but it’s just not 😔. Since a lot about teru is told visually I feel like they could’ve used that in earlier chapters to allude to his feelings especially since he’s supposedly liked her for a while. I know teru is a no showing emotions kinda guy but aidairo are clever storytellers im sure they could’ve come up with something which is why a lot of people I know think it was a last minute decision. I don’t necessarily believe it was, but I do think it could’ve been handled better.

Also When talking about the teru who didn’t want a relationship I meant the one of this timeline that this aoi said didn’t want a relationship (ofc he could’ve been lying or that changed overtime but she seemed pretty confident in that statement)

Low key find it a bit hard to believe teru actually has a crush on aoi when in this new timeline where they’re literally engaged he doesn’t actually want a romantic relationship with her (and yea he kind of alludes to it being weird that he didn’t want one since he likes her? BUT why would he not like her in this timeline if they actually “get” to be together.)
