honestly "no good deed" makes perfect sense when you put it into context of everything elphaba's been through in the last 24 hours. like. went to go visit her sister and dad. found out her dad was dead and not only does her sister hate her now but she's become the dictator of their home and imprisoned everyone who lives there. tries to help her sister a little by giving her the ability to walk only for her sister to immediately try to kill a guy. elphaba saves his life by turning him into a walking statue. during all this she finds out both of her college crushes are marrying each other and decides to go see what's going on there. goes to the capitol and is almost pardoned by the fascist dictator until she finds out that her favorite schoolteacher has been tortured so bad he's no longer sapient. crush a then shows up and almost kills her, then reveals he's running away with her instead. and she's like. what. and they have to leave behind crush b who ALREADY has severe abandonment issues. this is all happening in front of the fascist dictator, who is also her birth father. she and crush a run off and have sex for the first time. she then sees a massive storm and realizes it's heading right for her sister. goes to check and make sure her sister's ok. her sister has been murdered and the murderer is a 6yo girl who was given the family heirloom shoes by crush b. elphaba and crush b get into a fistfight, elphaba is almost arrested and murdered but crush a frees her and gets killed instead. like no wonder she fucking snapped, i would've cracked like eight hours prior
Exercises for all the homies who want to have a long career drawing.
The true problem with being an artist and drawing all day (as I wanted my whole life) is that human backs are not designed to hold that position, so it is very common for artists and designers to have really stiff shoulder blades, creating a chain of muscle strain towards the arm AND the back… and a lot of pain.
These are some physical exercises for artists and honestly anyone who works at a desk.

More Gelphie horses 🫶🏻🐴
Galinda is definitely a domesticated show horse from Oz, probably used for things like parades. While Elphaba is a horse from the Vinkus and has a close bond with Fiyero. Not sure how these two ended up meeting yet…Elphie def ends up in the Emerald City, perhaps captured by the Wizard as she’s the only horse who matches his aesthetic. Idk.
gelphie soulmate AU where once two soulmates bond and spend time together, being separated from each other for too long can physically make them sick. the closer the bond, the more painful it is to be apart.
they only find out after elphie flies away.
Nobody's talking about how Glinda called her "Elphaba" at the beginning of defying gravity (when she was mad) and when she softened she inmediatly switched to "Elphie". It's canon that she calls her by her whole name when she's angry.
In my manic pixie dreamland, wicked: for good ends with Glinda returning to the emerald city after no one mourns the wicked utterly defeated. She’ll begin the process of taking off her makeup and her Glinda the Good Witch mask when there’s a tapping on her windowsill. She walks over and low and behold there’s a note waiting for her. It’s a short folded piece of paper tied to the balcony that simply reads “hold out, my sweet.”
thunderclan's funny found family of four
two of the three werent passing that class anyway
I'm sorry but I cannot get over the deleted scene where Glinda asks Elphie about Fiyero and the lion cub, and Elphie clearly thinks she's jealous and reassures her. But no, Glinda isn't worried about that at all; she's upset that Elphie chose him over her. And then Elphie's slow look of realisation as this clicks. In my mind this is when she realises that Glinda is in love with her.
My heart cannot handle "You could've picked me" (!!!!!) and how "I'm not that girl" plays for a few seconds in the background, a song about the one you love not loving you back. I'm a mess
Just some designs for Gelphie daywear from my fic! I’ve been meaning to do sketches for a while I just never got around to it.
For me I think my favorite designs are Glinda’s stripes from Chapter 12, and Elphie’s casual from Chapter 16. Let me know your faves! I’ll hopefully have more of the casual fits from chapters 20+, and updated formal fits from the first half :3
