something about how both wei wuxian and jin guangyao repeatedly say they ‘didn’t have a choice’ in their actions. in both cases, it’s not literal impossibility, instead determined by their mindsets and personal conduct…. but while for wei wuxian that means he can’t do something immoral, even if it means losing all his social power, for jin guangyao it means he can’t do anything to lose his social power, even if it means doing something immoral. the other option is still there, but it’s never one they’d pick.
something about how they’re trying to walk the same path but in opposite directions: wei wuxian willingly left the nice, broad road in favour of upholding morals and debts, while jin guangyao is trying to claw onto it and stay there by any means necessary. in both cases, being parted from it so easily is only possible because this nice, broad road — full of people whose social power is unconditional, given at birth, independent of their actions — was never truly theirs to begin with. but despite how it is possible to be forced off due to nothing, as we see with wang lingjiao, the positions of both these characters were ultimately due to actions they took.
(about how no matter the similarity of the paths, no matter the narrowness of the choices, the direction you take is still up to you.)

My DnD Godsona, say hello to Lady Mothrine 😌

answering messages in a few but as i'm doing a lil thing i've been thinking way too heavily about oz again so if anyone wanted to join in on my au wizard of oz concept and wanted to bring me any of these amazing characters as an affiliate like this and i'll message you to spill all the details.
FINLEY — the awkward shapeshifter companion to the king. he was once cursed by theodora , making him a flying monkey who serves oz as his right hand. casted with charlie cox.
THEODORA THROPP — oz's long since forgotten ex. the two were destined to marry long before the two were even born , but the marriage was cut short due to oz's affair with glinda. the witch was devastated and has had a vendetta ever since , more so regarding her lost place upon the throne of oz more than anything else. casted with sarah shahi.
EVANORA THROPP — sister to theodora , evanora has sat as the trusted adviser to the throne of oz for decades , that is until oscar relived her of her duties upon dumping her sister , leaving the thropp sisters to harbor a shared distaste for the king. casted with mozhan marnó.
OZMA DIGGS — oscar's beloved twin sister and the princess of the emerald city. ozma is oz's most trusted confidant and the most devout member of his team toward his cause. casted with either sophia bush or morena baccarin.
DOROTHY GALE — oscar's estranged daughter in which he has lacked any sort of contact with over several decades as she was raised by her aunt and uncle in the land without magic after the passing of her mother , that is until oscar sends the natural disaster which brings her to oz. casted with madelyn cline.
ANNIE GALE — would be prevalent in flashbacks , being oscar's past lover from the land without magic , whom he met during his time within a traveling circus in which their love affair spawned their daughter , dorothy. casted with katheryn winnick.
LUCREZIA DIGGS — also only prevalent in flashbacks , oscar and ozma's mother. the most powerful witch known to oz at the time and a force to be reckoned with. casted with monica bellucci.
