my respect and appreciation of the narrative and its characters who all serve important functions vs. my desire never to talk about this stupid man again
#i guess technically this is#anti fiyero tigelaar#bless jonathan bailey and your silly little buttons#but i feel myself progressively caring less the more people talk about fiyero#cool character concept fine execution not where the meat of the story is#and i'm getting so unreasonably cranky about people using his resistance as a moral gotcha to gelphie#(it's unreasonable because i know people can prefer whatever ship they want)#but a) the fundamental moral and method rift between gelphie is PART of that ship's appeal#and b) the stage musical does not do a very good job of framing fiyero's resistance as a moral one if that was the point#he likes that elphaba is principled and rebellious but#he is not driven by anti-fascist ideals#his arc is going from caring about nothing to caring about one (1) person#it's why fiyero and elphaba's ending in the musical is LEAVING THE FIGHT#anyway#*yells at cloud*
