Hello I have to let you know and warn you that Unwelcome Ozian has really concerning and serious grooming allegations against them. There's a lot of proof and he doxxed the teenage girl when they came forward. They're a predator and not safe

Oh shit! Thank you for that information. Not that I don’t believe you but can you send me the proof of it?? I’ve followed them for a long time for information on trauma and mind control and as a trusted source of sensitive gov information so I do also worry that there may be those that would want them to not speak on these things and try to discredit them in some way. But I also prioritize believing victims first so I will no longer be interacting w Unwelcome Ozians content. Thank you for making me aware.

I was left unsupervised in a Barnes and Noble and this was the result. New Oz books added to my collection!

It's finally setting in that I'm going to have to wait an entire real life Earth Year before I can hear not only the two new songs Stephen Schwartz composed for the movies, but have my soul ripped out of my body and thrown in a trash compactor by Erivo's No Good Deed and For Good.

Princess Jinjur! She may not be the rightful ruler of Oz but she has a can do attitude and a lifetime of injustices seething beneath her skin!

[pro wrestling au] [in the middle of a promo] Elphaba: We are the most dominant tag team in the history of this organization! Galinda: Well...I'm definitely dominant! My girl here, not so much! Elphaba, blushing: Not right now? Galinda: Oops, sorry about that! Go on about how "dominant" you are...Elphie.

I hope everyone had a great summer! I myself was busy with summer reading and visiting libraries. To get back into art, I drew the boys having their own summer reading fun. I thought it would be cool to have them both reading Oz books; Lumpy is reading the original Wonderful Wizard of Oz (aimed at children), while Flippy is reading Was by Geoff Ryman, an adult re-examination of Oz (I've owned a copy I found secondhand for a couple years now and finally got around to reading it). 

I didn't love Was as much as I wanted to, but I still thought it was fascinating to read, even if it does end on a bittersweet, if not outright depressing, note. Also, I personally think Was is more engaging to read than Gregory Maguire's Wicked. That said, I am still looking forward to seeing the movie version of Wicked later this year. (I can't wait for the full version of their cover of Defying Gravity to be released.)

Also, I almost forgot that it's currently Banned Books Week (September 22-28, 2024). Here's a (not-so) fun fact, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz has been banned at various times since its publication for a variety of silly reasons, including but not limited to: being “untrue to life”, depicting women in strong leadership roles, and promoting "godless supernaturalism". Anyway, this is your friendly recommendation to read more banned books.

i went through hell for that damned jacket. i need to kiss whoever made it

[halcyon-hyacinth]

my wicked hot take is that there's not enough AUs of Elphaba staying in Emerald City and trying to usurp the Wizard from there...

as much as I know that Elphaba's moral code would ever prevent her from working with the Wizard, I feel like it'd be more interesting to see her fight against the system with all this power but zero influence

mostly I just love it when fics get political and it'd be super interesting to see how exactly the politics in Emerald City/Oz works... because Elphaba's attempt to change things from the outside end failed, and ultimately it was only her changing Galinda that wound up leading to long-lasting change in Oz...

also I've not seen part 2/read the book, but does Elphaba ever find out the Wizard is her biological father??? I think that reveal would be a huge catalyst and change some things, at least on the Wizard's end far earlier on...

[measureyourlifeincake]

the thing that's really funny about the wicked movie to me is that like. okay i simply cannot read g(a)linda as anything other than a closeted lesbian deep into the comphet. i dont need to explain this, people have been saying it, y'all know what i mean. but ALSO nearly all the guys seem... kind of queer-coded? like i dont just mean bowen yang doing the gbf thing, most of the background dudes were definitely presenting in kind of gnc ways, not to mention that they were definitely fawning over fiyero just as much as all of the girls and fiyero was clearly not against it.

putting this together, it seems to imply that homophobia exists in Oz but only for women. like boys can fag it up as much as they like and thats all fine and good, but god FORBID anyone catches a whiff of dykery around, that must be STAMPED OUT!!!

Whew, it may still be February, but it is SPRING in the city and my eyes and nose can feel it with every persistent sneeze 😵‍💫🤧. It'll only get worse as March approaches...annoyingly itchy. I'm armed to the teeth with claritin, inhaler, nebulizer. 🙈

After much discussion with @themiseryandcompany , the ✨️Elphie blog to my Glinda💕 blog, I decided to post this lil collection of snzcanons. 💚💗 Thank you, Miele for the inspo! Please check out her BEAUTIFULLY written Wick/ed fics and headcanons.

Oz Universe HC - Each culture in Oz has their own way of handling illness and maladies of the like. Vinkus, Gilikinese, Munchkinland, Quadling country. So some unconventional methods might be used when caretaking between students. Been meaning to brainstorm more on this because book and musical lore are SO different and the movie showcases a bit of both.

Elphaba/Elphie/Fae/Fabala (Book nicknames) -

- She is used to isolating and taking care of herself. Was isolated a lot when sick as a child to protect Nessarose, and in turn, told to stay away when Nessa was sick. Nessa would sneak books for her to read through the servants.

- And Fabala would in turn sneak in and read to little Nessa in secret.

- Not snz, but 'Fabala' is a nickname used by Nessa in the book. In canon, it's dimuntive of Aelphaba, kind of like the name Billy/William. MY personal headcanon divergence is that baby Nessa couldn't fully pronounce Elphaba...so Fabala stuck. 🥺💚

- Allergic to Milk flower pollen just like Nessa, just not at severely. Nessarose headcanons on this reblog.

- Nose gets darker green when irritated, rather than red when raw, same with her fever flush. She hates this.

- Has made glass break and sent things flying with unrestrained sneezes.

- Silently stifles as SHE was deeply stifled and stunted as a child. Frex indoctrinated the idea within her early on that her sneezes were too loud and too dangerous to those around her.

- Harsh deeper vocal sneezes. Sudden. Not much build up. Three syllabled.

- EHT'shuh! ER'HHT'Shew!

- Elphie scared Glinda the first time that she caught a nasty cold, couldn't stifle anymore and let out a loud sneeze while in the dormitory.

- "Sweet Oz!...How can such a thunderocious sound come from someone who's always so alooficated?"

- Even with stifles, it's a hit or miss that something will go wrong. During the first day of a cold, she might try to attend some classes. But say...a sudden repeated stifled fit in an alchemy class?...it could turn disasterous. She bolts...Glin and 'Yero follow a trail of levitating objects and hear her sneezing in a storage room. She's deeply embarassed, accepts Fiyero's Vinkus crested handkerchief through the door when offered.

"Oz bless you...it's alright, Fae...nobody saw..."

"Elphie?...can we come in?"

...but...she only lets Glinda into the room.

Galinda/Glinda/Glin

- Borderline hypochondriac, not quite, but definitely dramatic. Sensitive system.

- 🌸 Allergified 😔 Sneezonal, and particularly susceptible in Oz's Autumnial Solstice, and when everything is in bloom. Takes a regular tonic that Momsie and Popsicle regularly send from Gilikin to combat symptoms.

- (Am I projecting a lil?...totally...shamelessly. Pink and Glinda are one in the same, allergified and whining about it.)

- Elphie finds Glin crying and sneezing helplessly trying a ridiculous "cure-all" found in a magazine to 'Desternutate and clearify her Sinuses' when she's run out of her regular tonic and makes her tea instead.

- Has asked Madame Morrible, in private study, if there are 'Any spells that help with Allergification'...Unsuccessfully of course...😮‍💨

- Rapidfire high pitched sneezes, drawn out itchy buildups. Persistent. Elphaba thought this was for attention at first, before their friendship. But then she sees how genuinely miserable her fits are, how they can hurt, how embarassed she is and often holds her until they stop.

"Shhh, breathe, my sweet..."

- Hpptshhie! Aptshieew! Heeht'shieew! Eht'shiu!

- In class, Fi, Elphie and Boq have made an fond unspoken game of counting her sneezes as she has fits. Boq recounts the record in one sitting is 19 and offers his handkerchiefs...They aren't just for crying.
