part 1 of a little comic / art sequence that i've been working on! :D it's part tribute, part experimenting with brushes n colors and trying new thingz :]

| 1 | 2 | 3 | ... |

and thus continues my endless quest of spreading the carrot fics like a plague! if you've seen my art floating around you probs already figured that this au holds a very special place in my heart, forever and always!!

if you haven't heard of it, it's a fic series by @crowned-ladybug called carrot soup!! it made me wish i could speak colors and i need more people to share my struggle xd

go check it out if you're into sweet voice lore and qpr level gayness and just wanna feel warm and soft and warm (hurt/comfort my beloved) <333 there are some heavier themes cos everyone's traumatized but they're working through it! be sure to check the tags and stay safe! <3

Initial drawings of that old man… I literally, I haven’t finished reading the book of bill yet!!! I had to stop and take a break for a week to feverishly draw fanart of myself petting fords floofy hair and giving him attention and shit…!!!! The urge was too great….!! I’ve literally. I had a crush on this guy the instant he was first REVEALED in the show, but I did not have the artistic prowess to draw good looking old men back then… but I do now�� thank god… thank fucking god

Thoughts on Glinda

Bro I can't with all these Breakdowns of Glinda's character I'm like so obsessed. The way madam Morrible utilizes her need for external validation as a means to manipulate her throughout act 2. Her genuine insecurity that comes from only ever being beloved for surface level attributes until Elphaba finally sees her for her. The way her grief at the loss of Elphaba leads her to crave that same validation even more, the need for someone to tell her she'd done the right thing, that she’d made the right decision only for the one that shows up to fill that void to be the one to manipulate her.

The way society controls her with praise, holding her high on a pedestal while simultaneously chaining her to the image they have of her. The way all of Oz will turn against her if she dared break their perception of her, a perception that was forced apon her from a very young age. Even if she benefited from it, that doesn't change the fact she'd been bound to it for as long as she'd known. Glinda is a victim too, even if she doesn't appear like she is one. She's a hostage to the throne smart enough to know that had they not needed her influence she’d be chained up in a dungeon somewhere for treason.

By the end of act one she's practically a prisoner who just happens to have a nice cell. She never asked for any of it, she's scared and alone. She regrets not going with Elphaba but knows she would have slowed her down. She's used to being used for her influence, and status, so she resigns herself to that fate, but she's not okay with it. She's manipulated, and scared, and trapped, and tired. She wants that feeling again, that connection with someone who sees her, all of her, the same way Elphaba did. But she knows people like her don't get love like that so she clings on the scraps of adoration and validation she gets anytime she does something right, because she has to do it right, and if she doesn't she'll be alone again. And that's a type of pressure that could break a person.
