Elphaba and Dr. Dillamond for real smashed the “gays and their emotional support English teacher” trope. She’s GREEN (i mean this affectionately) and caught in a BISEXUAL ENEMIES-TO-LOVERS THROUPLE IN DENIAL. He’s a LIFE SCIENCES teacher in the book and a HISTORY teacher in the musical. And they are BOTH ENEMIES OF STATE.

See you November 21st, 2025

due to certain things coming to my attention I should clarify: what I mean by "crying ableism over Nessa's death" is people forgetting Wicked is based on Wizard of Oz and therefore Nessa (re: the Wicked Witch of the West's sister) is inherently doomed by the narrative (to have a house fall on her) and thus her death was not a decision "to kill off the canonically disabled character" made for the movie

What I don't mean is to diminish the voices of fans who take issue with the way the Wicked Witch of the East scene is handled in the show. Whilst I don't personally see it as harmful, I am not a part of the disabled community; so it's not really my place to say whether it's right or wrong. Depending on how they handle Nessa walking (I don't know whether or not Marissa is ambulatory) genuine discussions of disability representation and ableism might be brought to light; but that isn't a speculation I wanted to include in what is meant to be a light-hearted meme. That is a conversation that should be taken seriously if it does come up in regards to part two, and is not what I intended that bingo square to refer to.

All that being said, was it a questionable choice for Greg to make Nessa disabled when he wrote the book? Well... that's a convo for a different day.

Pick a Wicked lead if you dare! 😈

[dayas]

The Wicked brainrot is literally taking over so have these songs and lyrics from my On Repeat for some ships and characters!

Thrupple: My Love Mine All Mine by Mitski

Lyrical Highlight: “My baby here on Earth showed me what my heart was worth”/ “Nothing in the world belongs to me but my love, mine, all mine. Nothing in the world is mine for free but my love, mine, all mine, all mine.”

Gliyero: All to Yourself by Emerson Azarian.

Lyrical Highlight: “You got what I need but you’re kinda smothering” / “I know you’re capable but you’re too available” / “Yes, I love you but it’s a living hell.”

Fiyeraba: Fools Like Me by Lisa Loeb

Lyrical Highlight: “If love is blind, if love's a drug, it always is, it always was and love was surely made for fools like me” / “I did, I can, I was, I am only human, living, dying, just like any fool who ever breathed. Maybe it's the sanest thing or just the sweetest kind of dream but love was surely made for fools like me.”

Gelphie: The Black Dog by Taylor Swift

Lyrical Highlight: “That was intertwined in the tragic fabric of our dreaming, ‘cause tail between your legs, you're leaving. I still can't believe it, ‘cause old habits die screaming.”

Galinda: Taste by Sabrina Carpenter

Lyrical Highlight: “If you want forever, I bet you do, just know you’ll taste me too.”

Elphaba: Hurt Feelings by Halsey

Lyrical Highlight: “And in a few years I will leave, but I'll perpetually believe that any man who says he loves me is hiding something up his sleeve” / “Wash me in the water, you can cut off all of my hair and I'll be changing like the weather but I'll never be like him” / “'Cause blood is thick but water is forever and I'm stiffer than a board, lighter than a feather. And that girl will be a problem only if you let her, and I left her back home but I cannot forget her.”

Fiyero: Sweet Delusion by Bella Poarch

Lyrical Highlight: “It's a fantasy, better than being alone. Keep me company, don't you ever let go. Lose my sanity and get lost in the smoke, ‘cause reality is inevitable.”

GUYS I SAW THE MOVIE TODAY!

THERE WERE GELPHIE VIBES GALORE!!!!

ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

MY THEATER-OBSESSED ASS IS NOT OKAY!!!!!

[pureanonofficial]

You and me, we're perfect together.

[incorrectgliyeraba]

Elphaba: [maniacal laughter] At last! I control everything! You are my pawns to do with as I please. You have no choice but to BEND TO MY WILL. Yes...I will own you...I am your Creator. And I can be...your Destroyer!

Glinda: Honestly, Elphie, stop being so melodramatic!

Elphaba: Glinda, am I not permitted an occasional moment of melodrama?

Fiyero: Yes, but it's only a game of Monopoly!

Elphaba: A game...that I am winning! [maniacal laughter] Yeees, there is no power but mine! I control Park Lane...Mayfair...the Waterworks-

Glinda: Elphie!

Elphaba: I want to imagine what it feels like to be a power-crazed dictator! See into the enemy's mind...

Fiyero: And?

Elphaba: Boring. And I hate hotels.

[sheofthebookandsong]

And this is why Gelphiero is the best love triangle in existence, I will hear no arguments

look, sometimes a relationship can be a high femme mean lesbian, her comphet/beard pansexual boyfriend, and their terrifying domestic terrorist goth girlfriend on the run from the police

[moon-axolotl]

Y’all, the situationship just got A LOT more complicated…

[shinyruby]

The biggest tragedy of splitting Wicked up into two parts is knowing how disappointed the Gliyero shippers will be in part 2.

I’ve seen shippers post pictures of Glinda and Fiyero, and being like, “Oh, I want what they have.”

Trust me though, you don’t. The only thing they have is feelings for another woman.

[stphaba]

going to be so for real though, in a piece of media that talks about some really fascinating themes (like the importance of choice and the impact of your choices on your relationships, how the powers that be can and will manipulate populations to stay in power, how a woman of color's attempts to change the system are villainized and downgraded in comparison to her white counterparts, to name a few), having the fandom focus solely be on who works best with elphie romantically or how elphie is in the way of gliyero (?) is really, really annoying and off putting. let me be insane about elphie and the political themes in peace

[yourartmatters-itswhatgotmehere]

PLEASE!!!

Please someone has to draw Gelphiyero in this pose with Elphaba in the middle PLEASE

[frottica]

tomshiv balcony argument except it’s flinda…. gliyero…. whatever the kids are calling it

[victoriously-wicked]

Glinda: Thanks for pulling the fire alarm, you saved me from giving an oral report about 'Charlotte's Web'. Fiyero: You were too lazy to read the book? Glinda: I was too lazy to watch the movie.

[pureanonofficial]

Fiyero—I miss her too! But we can’t just stop living.
