excalibur :)
A lil practice in perspective with this piece mostly, so here's Howl and Sophie, who I designed based 50/50 on their book and movie counterparts! I actually would love to revisit this piece and paring in the future, since the book is one of my all time favs
Okay, but hear me out - In the movie, the sequence of the scenes where Elphaba learns about the horrific treatment of Animals and then meets Fiyero is soooo important. This transition between the two scenes highlights an emotional turning point for Elphaba. Dr. Dillamond's revelations intensify her awareness of injustice, leaving her searching for a way to act. Enter Fiyero, who not only contrasts the bleakness of the previous scene with his carefree presence but also will ultimately influence Elphaba's growth. As we know, eventually Fiyero is a foil to encourage Elphaba to transform her ideals into action, giving her the courage to make her voice heard. The scene order underscores how pivotal Fiyero's presence is in shaping Elphaba's journey from bystander to the unlimited badass she becomes later on. And Jonathan Bailey's version of Fiyero is much softer and is given a lot more space to be kind than stage!Fiyero, and I just really love how that, in contrast to the cruelty described in the previous scene just highlights the differences but also ties them together for Elphaba's story.

A detail I love that they added for the film is the way Fiyero talks to/about his horse using "we" instead of "I". It's a wonderful little indication that he's going to be an ally in the fight for animal rights.

Cannot wait for their performances in Wicked: For Good!!!
Since Wicked: For Good will probably be also around the same amount of time as Part one I hope we get a lot more scenes with these two. Not just because I absolutely adore them, but because the Fiyeraba hate is out of control.
I hope the movie shows just how much Fiyero gives up to be with Elphaba. (not even caring if he dies as long as Elphaba is safe) And how much of an anchor he became to Elphaba, that the moment she believes she's lost him she loses all of her will to try and do Good in Oz.
Note: It is Ok to have criticisms of a ship. My problem is when people come after people who do support the ship, bashing and hating on them .
