#not gonna do a long rant bc i dont care enough but um lets stop making things up

[arthurily]

Lol I chuckle whenever ppl unironically say that arthur didn’t care that john was mauled by wolves😭 im not sure you understand their dynamic quite well… that man sat by john’s bed and didnt even allow him to get up

#txt #not gonna do a long rant bc i dont care enough but um lets stop making things up #but yk some people are meaner to the people they love #because theyre so close theyre comfortable doing so #thats arthur #in general. in the beginning there may have been other factors that caused him to act like that to john but❤️ #he’ll bully john but he loves him. thank you for coming to this useless talk. #i just get so €;)3)dhwu9297 when ppl say arthur didnt care abt johns wounds but only abt charles’ #ik some say it as a joke but now i see it everywhere and im like u dont actually think that tho….right? #bullying is arthurs love language trust me he was classmates with me in hs #hes my cousin’s neighbour #🦌🐺

aight so i got that undiagnosed adhd thing so who really knows where we're going rn-

Defying Gravity. song from Wicked. (i am also a theater nerd, strap in)

(also heads up i dont actually remember a lot of the plot details, i was just trying to figure out how to properly do a belting/mix singing thing and this song is good for that and i got sidetracked listening to the lyrics)

so first off. this is a huge turning point for both Elphaba's and Glinda's lives, and it's super vital to their stories how they bounce off each other in this. it's fascinating.

then. lyrics. starts off with the whole sarcastic "i hOpe yoU're hAppY/ I HoPe YOu'rE haPpY nOw" which is hilarious except also very sad. (they're both mad at each other and hurt, and they don't understand Why the other person would react this way!!!)

then this!!

though I can't imagine how I hope you're happy right now

ugh they're still mad but also there's that bit of "i don't understand what you're doing but Im sure you know and believe it will be better for you"

then Glinda's bit here: (also i copied the lyrics and i think it's screwing with the formatting but im on mobile and really just don't care enough to fix it :/ sorry lol)

Elphie, listen to me, just say you're sorry!

You can still be with the wizard What you've worked and waited for You can have all you ever wanted

she's so hopeful. sweet innocent child. (which wow i could go on a rant about how book!Glinda, movie!Glinda and musical!Glinda are such wildly different people -book!Glinda being the most different- but im trying to focus. another time Perhaps)

Elphaba:

I know

But I don't want it No, I can't want it anymore

wowww the strength. the power. I love her!!! um- honestly though. Glinda is begging her to stop and literally Live Out Her Dream Life! but Elphaba says no!! bc -ok well um a lot of things but i'm gonna do that romantic theater kid thing and idk romance it- bc dreams change. and sometimes you realize the person you were or wanted to be isn't you. and you can't just brush off this realization and pretend things are fine bc you've taken off your green-tinted glasses (lol like rose colored glasses but oz reference. do i need to spell out jokes like that? probably not but also like. in the nicest way possible. people can be dumb. um foecjcus. focus. yeah that.) -And now you see colors that the people around you can't. and it's not like you can tell them. they're happy in their screwed up life where everything is green. (wtf even tho) pull their glasses off and they'll pretend not to see.

i think that's enough of that. let's keep goinggg! (skipping some stufff) Elphaba:

I'm through accepting limits 'Cause someone says they're so Some things I cannot change But 'til I try, I'll never know!

this is important!!! just because someone says something Does Not Mean It Is True. especially on the internet. !! try things. do things even if people say you're bad at it. do research on things before saying it's fact too. (not really related the song just like. life lesson :) )

Too long I've been afraid of Losing love I guess I've lost Well, if that's love It comes at much too high a cost!

<3 love is valuable and so r u. um things are scary!! that's okay!! not everyone will love you and that's also okay even though it sucks!! also you shouldn't have to fit in someone's box for them to love you.

(uhhg it's gettin glitchy up in here. i should like. downloadthe actual app cuz stuff is stinky through chrome. which! im open to advicabout that cuz i keep deleting my socialsand using chrome toget to them and it stinks. like ik i probably should just download stuff but annoying. not esiting this. suffer. :))) also im just gonna postthis amd maybe add onto it later bc we were just getting to the best part)

till the next time our paths cross <3
