when i was 11 and first got obsessed with wicked, i had no idea i was shipping these two women. which is insane because i'd already been reading fanfiction for years at that point. but with elphaba and galinda it was "their friendship is so beautiful and meaningful..." and it honestly wasn't until adulthood that i was like "...and also they lez out like crazy"

#i had a friend who went on a rant about how gelphie as a ship undermined their power as a friendship #and that was the first time i'd heard of people shipping them romantically #but because it was my friend i agreed with her #even though on the inside i wasn't sure #and i just put those thoughts and feelings away for a while and refused to examine them #but the funniest thing is that i came out like 2 years later. i was a pretty early bloomer in my gayness #and yet. still i didn't consider gelphie to be A Thing #even though they were for all intents and purposes my first wlw ship #my first exposure to toxic yuri <3 #wicked #ableist language cw... on my own post. for shame
