But what if I wrote a high fantasy au? Where Solace and Fallinel were at war after the emperor of Solace (Arthur Aguefort) was assassinated and Ayda had to take up the mantel? And Adaine was a political refugee who sought asylum 3 years back. Now, the crown's board of regents (the bad kids) need to find her and protect her? Also, because she's a massive political ally? And maybe there's some of my favorite rarepair? What then, huh?
god cursed me into seeing this image so im making it everyone elses problem
Something that makes me so emotional about book Elphaba is the incredibly subtle ways she shows her love for Glinda, so on par with Elphaba’s character and so subtle that if you blink you miss it.
Elphaba kisses Glinda on the carriage, that’s explicit, but before that she nearly misses it because she was buying food. For Glinda. Elphaba knew very well she wasn’t going back to Shiz that day, yet she still bought Glinda food with money she definitely needed for herself just so that Glinda wouldn’t be hungry on the way home.
Then you have the way she visits Saint Glinda’s shrine, Glinda’s namesake. Elphaba is not religious whatsoever, she’s very vitriolic towards the idea of religion in the book, yet she visits a Unionist shrine of all places that just happens to have statues of her “best friend’s” namesake.
She also asks the most questions of all about Glinda when Fiyero visits her, and asks about her first to add to that. Elphaba wants to know the most about Glinda. More than her father, Nessarose, Shell, the people who are her family (said loosely). More than even Fiyero, and he’s sitting right in front of her. She couldn’t care less about Fiyero’s wife yet is thoroughly offended when she finds out Glinda “only” married a baronet.
When Fiyero asks if Elphaba is married, she says “yes, but not to a man” and breaks down in tears. In the book water does hurt Elphaba, including her tears, so it stands to reason she doesn’t cry often. But the thought of being “married” to someone that isn’t there, that she can’t be with, is enough to cause her to harm herself even if it’s inadvertently. It would make sense for it to be Glinda, for Glinda is the only person to ever have even brought her close to tears.
And finally, this one is just silly, but the way Fiyero makes a comment on how Elphaba didn’t bleed the first time they have sex and the way she just blows him off by saying “well I’m not as virginal as you think” one hundred percent means Glinda was her first time.
I also do think that Elphaba really does love Fiyero, and I do mean romantically. But in the end he’s still just a distraction, a balm for the fact that the one person Elphaba truly wants is the person she can’t have. And that person is Glinda.
pretty cool, my darling paramour

rewatching fantasy high (AGAIN!!)
I’m putting together a book of all the short comics I’ve drawn over the past year to have for sale at my spring conventions! Not sure what the title will be yet, but the uniting themes of all the stories seem to be Girls and Magic.
I drew this selkie comic really fast and it bounced all around tumblr which was cool, but the messy lettering and simple coloring bugged me so I cleaned it up a bit.
my fetish is people reassuring me that i’m not annoying
There is no words to describe how much I love her
The movie is based on the book which (imo) is much better. Though after the third book the series gets a bit weird so you might want to stop reading after that.
I'm not even an hour into the school for good and evil but if sophie just grabbed agatha and kissed her up against the wall, i won't need to be
sorry but if you think about it, the duel in a court of fey and flowers is soooo funny. imagine you’re watching a goblin captain and “rue’s assistant” (absolutely brutal) square up to each other before they duel. you don’t know why they’re doing this. no one does. not even the goblin. suddenly, in the middle of their fight, pillar boy makes himself known. he disrobes and a storm cloud appears over him. he’s hot and wet. no one is confused to what’s going on down there. everyone’s kinda upset before wuvvy’s like “ok fine”. they argue about the means of battle for about ten minutes, and ultimately decide wrestling (the first option posed). captain hobb manages to pin pillar boy and win, but you’re just so impressed by how slippery andhera is. like so impressed. and so is hob actually. they end on good terms? then he asks wuvvy for a reason for all this. she runs away. justice for viscountess graballba. this shit is insane. would you like some tea?
There's this really good movie called crush and it's a sapphic romcom with no struggles that relate to being gay (except maybe gay panic but that's a different thing). I personally really loved it.
LESS movies about the lgbtq experience MORE movies about people who just happen to be lgbtq. is it really that hard to understand
I'm just a small lesbian that's obsessed with music and has a new hyperfixation every two weeks. hope you'll like me :)
