Can I just talk about how Boq “Glad he’s heartless so he’ll be heartless killing her” Woodman, when he actually sees Elphaba die, looks like this?

Because it is not talked about enough.

FIYERO AND THE WIZARD ( SCRAPPED BOQ VERSION )

The air in Oz had shifted the moment Fiyero arrived. His effortless charm turned heads, and his dazzling smile seemed to brighten even the dreariest corners of the land. Among those captivated was Glinda, whose laughter now rang louder in Fiyero’s presence than it ever had around Boq.

Boq, the loyal Munchkin, felt the sting of jealousy. He had long admired Glinda, dreamed of being the one to win her heart. But how could he compete with someone like Fiyero? Fiyero was everything Boq wasn’t—tall, confident, and dazzling. What burned most was that Fiyero treated him kindly, like an equal. It was almost unbearable.

Boq’s desperation grew with every passing day. He had to do something.

That’s when he remembered the Wizard.

The Emerald City shimmered in the distance, its towering spires a beacon of power and possibility. Boq entered the Wizard’s grand chamber, trembling as he explained his plight. The Wizard, with his ever-present smile and calculating gaze, listened intently.

“You have such a pure heart, Boq,” the Wizard said, his tone dripping with mock sincerity. “But I see the fire of ambition in you. It’s admirable. I can help you, but there’s a catch. You must bring Fiyero here. Together.”

Boq hesitated but only for a moment. The plan was already forming in his mind.

Back in Oz, Boq crafted a forged invitation from the Wizard himself, writing in elaborate, elegant script:

"To the noble and dashing Fiyero: I, the Wizard, humbly request your presence in the Emerald City. You may bring a companion of your choosing. I look forward to meeting you and discussing matters of great importance."

When Boq presented it to Fiyero, his face lit up. “You’d come with me?” Fiyero asked.

“Of course,” Boq replied, masking his nervousness with a smile.

The two journeyed to the Emerald City together, Fiyero marveling at its grandeur while Boq’s mind raced with anticipation.

The Wizard greeted them with his signature grin, his arms wide as though welcoming old friends. “Ah, Fiyero! A pleasure to finally meet you.” He turned to Boq, winking subtly.

Before Fiyero could respond, a figure emerged from the shadows. Chesery, the Wizard’s loyal partner, was silent but swift. Before Fiyero realized what was happening, he was bound tightly in enchanted ropes.

“What is this?!” Fiyero exclaimed, his voice tinged with confusion and betrayal.

Boq stepped back, unsure of what to do. The Wizard laughed, his voice echoing ominously. “You’ll see soon enough, my boy. Let’s begin, shall we?”

The Wizard opened the Grimmerie, the ancient spellbook, its pages glowing with an eerie green light. Chanting in a language Boq couldn’t understand, he directed his energy at the trembling Munchkin.

A surge of power overtook Boq. He felt his body stretching, his muscles growing. His ginger hair darkened to a rich brown, streaked with gold, and grew longer. His face sharpened, stubble appearing on his chin. His Munchkin clothes morphed into royal blue and gold, perfectly tailored to his new, athletic frame.

Boq gasped as he looked down at his hands. They weren’t his hands. They were Fiyero’s.

Boq turned to Fiyero, his lips curling into a triumphant, wicked grin. He took a step forward, the sound of his boots echoing in the chamber. The sensation of power and perfection coursing through his veins was like nothing he’d ever felt. He couldn’t help but roll his shoulders, letting his newly broadened frame stretch under the finely tailored fabric of his royal blue jacket.

“Oh, Fiyero,” he began, his voice now rich, smooth, and dripping with mockery. The deep timbre—the voice Fiyero himself had used to charm everyone around him—felt intoxicating as it rolled off Boq’s tongue. He laughed, low and confident, his eyes locking on the bound and helpless prince. “You always had it all, didn’t you? The charm, the attention, the looks. You didn’t even have to try. Meanwhile, I stood in the background, invisible. But now...”

Boq paused, his hands moving to his chest, his fingers brushing over the firm ridges of his new pecs and abs. He gasped softly, almost overwhelmed by the sensation. “Now this,” he said, dragging his hands down slowly, deliberately, savoring every contour of his sculpted torso. “This is what it feels like to be... perfect.” He gave his abs a sharp slap, grinning as he watched the muscles ripple beneath his hand. “Solid as a rock. I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of this.”

He turned to the mirror, his eyes lighting up as he caught sight of his reflection. His smirk widened, his hands running up to his shoulders, down his arms, and back to his chest. “And this build,” he mused, flexing his arms to watch his biceps swell against the sleeves of his jacket. “So strong, so powerful. No wonder everyone followed you without question. Just standing there, you command attention.”

Boq ran a hand through his hair, marveling at the soft, golden-brown strands that fell perfectly back into place. “And this hair,” he said, his tone almost reverent. “It’s ridiculous, isn’t it? Silky, thick, flawless. You could walk through a storm, and it would still look like this.” He laughed sharply, turning back to Fiyero. “No wonder Glinda’s eyes light up every time you’re near. With this hair and this face...”

He stepped closer to the mirror, leaning in to study his new jawline. His fingers brushed against the light stubble that now adorned his chin, and he couldn’t help but smirk. “This is incredible,” he muttered, testing out his new, dazzling smile. He tilted his head, flashing the grin at his reflection, watching as it lit up his entire face. “How could anyone resist this? No wonder you were the center of attention everywhere you went.”

Turning back to Fiyero, Boq’s grin took on a sharper edge. He ran his hands slowly down his torso again, stopping at his waist before letting them drift lower. “And this,” he said, giving his crotch a deliberate squeeze. He let out a soft, mocking chuckle, his eyes locking on Fiyero’s horrified expression. “You know, I always wondered why people whispered about you behind your back. Now I get it. You weren’t just handsome—you were blessed.”

He stepped closer to the bound prince, leaning down slightly to sneer in his face. “But you didn’t deserve it, did you? All this perfection, and you never really appreciated it. You just walked through life, taking it all for granted. Well, don’t worry, Fiyero. I’ll make sure this body gets the attention it deserves.”

Boq straightened, turning slightly to admire his reflection again. His hands moved to his backside, giving it an exaggerated pat. “And this!” he exclaimed, laughing as he gave it a firm squeeze. “This is just... absurd. How did you even walk around without everyone stopping to stare? Honestly, Fiyero, it’s a little unfair to the rest of us. But now... it’s mine.”

Fiyero’s face burned with a mixture of fury and humiliation. “Boq, stop this! This isn’t who you are!”

“Oh, but it is,” Boq shot back, his tone venomous and full of delight. “Maybe this is who I’ve been all along, Fiyero. Waiting, watching, knowing I’d never measure up—until now. Now I don’t just measure up; I surpass you. I’m stronger, better, perfect.”

He leaned in even closer, his lips curling into a smirk as he stared into Fiyero’s betrayed eyes. “But don’t worry,” Boq whispered, his tone mockingly sweet. “You won’t be forgotten. In fact...” He paused, his grin widening. “I think I’ll give you a proper goodbye.”

Before Fiyero could react, Boq leaned in and pressed his new lips against Fiyero’s in a mocking, exaggerated kiss. It wasn’t an act of affection; it was a final, cruel taunt. When Boq pulled back, his smirk was wider than ever, and Fiyero’s face twisted in stunned disgust.

“Goodbye, Fiyero,” Boq said, his voice dripping with mockery. “Enjoy obscurity while I enjoy... this.”

The Wizard’s laughter filled the chamber, a booming symphony of malice. Chesery stepped forward, dragging the real Fiyero away as he struggled futilely against his bonds. His protests faded into the shadows as Boq turned back to the mirror, his hands moving over his new body one last time, reveling in every inch of his stolen perfection.

“Yes,” he said softly, his voice brimming with confidence and delight. “This is who I was meant to be.”

The Wizard clapped a hand on Boq’s shoulder, his grin wide and approving. “You’re perfect, my boy. The new Fiyero is ready.”

Boq adjusted the collar of his jacket, flashed one last dazzling smile at his reflection, and turned to the Wizard. “Let’s get started.”

Hii I'm posting an Extra story, this is a scrapped Version of the " Fiyero And The Wizard " story that I didn’t post for alot of reasons, but I still liked it, so here you go, there's even a THIRD scrapped Version coming to patreon tomorrow!!

[thatmultifandomchick]

Saw Wicked Part 1 the other day and decided to do some character designs. If you’re wondering where Fiyero is, I haven’t designed him yet because I cannot for the life of me figure out how to make him look interesting.

[valerie4ever]

feeling #blessed and #unwell every time frances hannon opens her mouth and gives us character design spoilers for boq and fiyero’s future tin man and scarecrow selves in “wicked: for good”. HOW IS SHE NOT RECEIVING CEASE AND DESISTS??? keep feeding us until universal silences you, queen!!

(here’s the link to the article that the screenshot is from)

[nobodysdaydreams]

While I’m on a roll with Wicked posting, I gotta ask my fellow musical fans whether anybody is feeling different about Nessarose and Boq after seeing the movie?

I mean, it has been a while, but I do remember thinking they were okay in the musical: they show how they become the tin man and the Wicked Witch of the East in the Wizard of Oz story. But when I first saw the musical I was mostly focused on Galinda, Fiyero, and Elphaba’s stories. (Yes: obviously that makes sense since they’re the main characters, but make no mistake, I am not above hyper fixating on minor characters with two lines of dialogue).

However. The movie had me feeling very differently about Nessa and Boq, and I can’t quite explain why. Maybe it’s the fact that the movie let’s us have close ups of the actors’ faces and shows more little moments that the characters have together, but I really care about them now, and I’m so sad for what’s gonna happen to them.

Nessarose was so happy and excited to tell Elphaba that Boq asked her out and when Boq saw Galinda kissing Fiyero, it looked like he might finally take no for an answer and appreciate what was in front of him. Baby Nessarose was so cute and when she’s with Boq, there are so many scenes where she’s smiling and looks so happy to be with him, and Boq is so endearing with how awkward he is and how he does that thing where he stands on stuff to look taller. That meet cute moment Nessarose and Boq had during the assembly where they look over at each other was adorable too. I want them to be happy even more now, and it’s worse when I know they won’t!

Why would you take two perfectly adorable relatively kind and endearing people and turn them into (in one of their cases, literally) heartless people? 😭💔 I know the act one characters are flawed, but that’s true of all of them, and it’s not like either of them are irredeemable at this point. They show Nessarose getting upset at the Ozdust when people made fun of her sister and crying when her sister was branded a wicked witch, and even though she says hurtful things, you can tell she does care about Elphaba. And even though Boq still has feelings for Galinda he’s not being honest about, it’s clear he doesn’t pity Nessa like other characters do and won’t use that as his reason for showing interest in her.

Honestly, I don’t even care so much about whether Nessarose and Boq end up together romantically as I do them staying friends and still being loving and happy people.

Some Curses, Some Choices—A Wicked Fanfic✨💚✨

This short story idea has been living rent-free in my head for a while now, since the movie came out and re-sparked my love of the Wicked fandom, and I finally put it into words and decided to post it. If you love found family, redemption arcs, and a little bit of angst with your magic, I hope you’ll check it out. 🌿🔮

Also, I had to commission some art of Elphaba and Fiyero for this one, and Redroka on Fiverr absolutely brought them to life. 🖤💛

What We Became Summary (Link copied below):

In the mysterious Shadowlands of Ev, where outcasts seek sanctuary, Elphaba has built a quiet life in exile with Fiyero and Chistery. But when Boq crosses the Deadly Desert seeking answers about the magic that transformed him into tin, both must confront whether understanding can grow in the space between curse and salvation. Some transformations can't be undone - but perhaps they can be forgiven.

Fiyero and Boq can be the ultimate tragic couple… Boq had a heart full of love and he lost it all, Fiyero only has heart but he’s too late…please its peak

[sailorscout93]

Rewatching Wicked for the who knows how many times now and I have ANOTHER newer thought about Dancing Through Life and Ozdust Ballroom scene (and for once it has nothing to do with my beloved Gelphie). Time for another episode of Scout’s rambling!!!!!

Boq and Nessa both show a bit of their toxic potential behavior/mindset in the scene…. Boq in the library shows his complete and utter devotion to Galinda and how he is literally crazy enough to ask out another girl, because the girl he likes asked him to (essentially). And then at the Ozdust he’s with Nessa but literally cannot stop staring at Galinda, actually starts feeling BAD for what he’s done, is about to confess(a) to Nessa, and then Galinda kisses Fiyero and BOOM! Changes his mind. Sure. He can settle for Nessa. Because that’s what I truly think he believes he is doing in that moment. Settling for Nessa. (None of Boq’s toxic mindset is new to me but I wanted to point it out before I got to Nessa’s, which IS new to me)

Now for Nessa. I can see how when she’s talking to Elphaba in the library and says “this is our chance” it being more an excited girl talking to her sister about her crush on the boy, so I’ll give her that and call it less toxic, more typical. but once she repeats it to Boq at the Ozdust you can see he’s visibly kind of taken aback/uncomfortable when she says “don’t you see, this is our chance!” Like the look on his face just screams “chance for what? This is our first date!” To me. Like she almost sounds like she’s thinking about forever on the first date and let’s be real, that would scare ANYONE away. (I did have that happen to me once. A guy I was literally meeting to hang out with on our college campus before I came out as gay started talking about marriage and this was the first time we’d ever met and I literally had to send my best friend at the time an SOS message to call me and get me out of there). I’m sure once I’ve seen act 2 and more specifically For Good I’ll find more ways to analyze the scene into their future together, but that’s 300 days away.

If I had a dollar for every time the Tin Woodsman character in a fucked up OZ reimagining got trapped in a toxic relationship with a female ruler who "owns" them in some way and just inherited the throne after her dad's sudden death, had a hand in him becoming the Tin Man, and then died, while the Scarecrow character used to be Glinda's boyfriend and a soldier,I'd have two dollars, which is not much but still weird that it happened twice.

They're each fucked up in their own fascinating and unique ways however.
