A Dance Of Our Own

Elphaba + her heart's desire

Wicked (2024)

thinking once again about how someone translated the Grimmerie from the movie and for the spell they believe is for Fiyero’s transformation it said something like ‘a different form, yet the same soul’. 😭 like everything really just comes full circle, so carefully tied to the deeper meanings in Wicked. Elphaba loves Fiyero for who he is, under the superficial appearance he shows to others. under the barriers he put up to protect himself, until she came along. she wanted to keep that intact. she wanted him to stay alive, no matter what form, just with the same soul. with everything that made Fiyero who he truly is.

i wish they kept this scene because cynthia looks so unbelievably good in this like???? ik everyone would've been SCREAMING this is so unfair the cut content makes me cry.

elphaba + smiling 🥰

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.

Kiss Me too fiercely, Hold me too tight, I need help believing You’re with me tonight My wildest dreamings could not foresee Lying beside you with You wanting me, and Just for this moment As long as you’re mine I’ve lost all resistance And crossed some borderline And if it turns out, it’s over too fast I’ll make every last moment last, As long as you’re mine.

"Poppies are my favorite." "Mine too."

I hope you are thinking pure thoughts, considering we are returning to our family home. I am simply enjoying the view of my ravishing wife and soon-to-be mother of my child.
