I see a lot of posts taking about how Elphaba couldn’t believe someone like Fiyero would ever love her (because she’s been told she’s repulsive/unloveable her whole life). Like, why would a handsome prince who could have anyone he wanted chose her, the weird green girl?
But you know what I love even more? If Fiyero can’t believe Elphaba would want him.
Fiyero. Handsome, charming, a literal prince. Admired by all his classmates and landed the school’s it-girl, Galinda. No doubt has a bright future ahead regardless of how many schools he’s kicked out of because he’s at the height of wealth and privilege.
And he’s sulking around campus because he doesn’t think he’s good enough to date the green girl everyone dislikes.
After all, Elphaba is so smart and brave and beautiful despite what others say about her green skin. She doesn’t put on airs or act shallow like the other students do. She’s sharply perceptive, seeing right through him in a way that no else really has. She cares deeply about those in need and has the courage to do something about. She spat in the Wizard’s face, told him he has no real power, and ran off from a tempting offer for a better life in favor of doing what she knew was right. Despite her cold exterior, she’s never outright cruel to others despite how cruel others are to her. And on top of all that, she’s a once in a lifetime talent at sorcery.
She’s extraordinary. Why would she go for a shallow, brainless party boy like him? (He tells himself as she’s singing “I’m Not That Girl” elsewhere in the woods).
goofy wicked road trip adventure fic but it's fiyero fleeing shiz the night of defying gravity because he heard morrible's announcement and he knew something was wrong. he runs into boq as he's leaving campus and boq is determined to help glinda so the two of them team up and head for the emerald city, where they find a distraught glinda who tells them what really happened. they break her out of the palace and the three of them start exploring oz trying to find elphaba. chaos and extremely confusing overlapping love triangles ensue

- when they were younger, daring took his role of older brother very seriously and swore to protect them through everything
- their parents made a shitty comment about darling wearing a suit to a school dance, so dexter and daring went in ballgowns
- daring helps style and dye darling’s hair and dexter helps with her makeup because darling is honestly so bad at doing it herself
- they do face masks together and have movie nights
- they tell each other everything
- dexter and daring were originally supposed to be roommates, but they both decided that it would be better for each other and their sanity if they weren’t
- when daring gets arrested, darling and dexter cover for him while they use their father’s money to bail him out
- they can communicate through faces at each other
- darling and daring keep spares of dexter’s glasses because he’s always losing them, while dexter ans darling have an extra of one of daring’s mirrors and daring and dexter have small knives for darling
- they have matching armour and look absolutely badass in it
Concept: Hera doesn’t show up for the Battle of Manhattan but Juno shows up for the Battle of Mount Othrys.
Jason in the midst of battle about to face Krios and praying not to his father.
But to his patron.
In seconds Juno appearing before her champion. And despite despite the dire circumstances, she smiles at him.
To see Jason on the battle field looking every bit the hero she knew he was destined to become.
It fills her with pride.
“You came? I mean of course you’d come.” Says Jason, trying and failing to hide his shock. “Of course, where else would I be when my champion needs me.”
Jason smiles “of course, thank you Lady Juno” he says bowing his head in gratitude. Juno shook her head in amusement “honestly Jason how many times have I told you to forgo these formalities?”
Her champion grinned “oh somewhere between 2 and 200 times.” Cheeky boy, she adored him so. It had been far too long since they’d spoken, a fault on her part of course.
Alas it was then their lovely conversation was interrupted by Krios, the titan staring at them in shock.
“You..but how? How are you so far from your husband?”
Jason glared “how dare you speak to my champion in such a way?!” He rose his sword to defend himself and her honour. Juno softened at the sight before preparing herself for the fight.
“I trust you have a plan.”
“Sure do, but you’re gonna have to follow my lead.”
“Lead the way my boy.”
The major arcana is finished!!!!!!!
I'm thinking of getting this printed in a mini zine. If you're interested please let me know since I'm looking for distributers for a copy for myself at least.
Commissions are open and info can be found here
My ko-fi is here
Arthur: He tossed a few drinks together, poured it out, and made you drink it? How was it?
Albert: Disgusting.
Bartender: That’s not what you said.
Albert: No, because you were there.
Bartender: Well, I’m here now.
Albert: *gesturing to Arthur* But I’m next to my big man.
Jason who is super empathic to his friends and not ever to himself.
Leo could have a cut and he'd be like oh no! I need to get you help! And is super anxious about it.
Meanwhile, Jason is actively bleeding out in every direction and doesn't feel any of it. Leo is a person who deserves good things, and Jason is a soldier who has to endure pain to help people.
I wish the hoo books didn't erase the 'roman-ness' from jason completely just because he adapted to the greeks. we needed a proper, cold, calculating roman representation. hazel and frank could just as easily fit into the greeks because they were very new to camp jupiter and reyna was shipped off to the hunters.
jason was always kind of eccentric in the argo ii if you guys hadn't noticed. when jason was talking in praise about diocletian(?) hazel looked at him in horror because he wasn't supposed to be saying good things about him. but the romans were supposed to be like that. they were supposed to take in the beneficial aspects of even bad people, they didn't think about feelings. they were the "we see good in everyone but only because we need them for our benefit".
it would take a million years for jason to trust someone completely, hot take but he would take longer than nico to warm up to someone. nico is just more open about not trusting someone, but jason would hide it better. annabeth said jason had this unnerving vibe about him and neither she or hazel could get a read on him. he would be calculating your every move and would read so much into what you say, because he's a roman by blood, by virtue.
and jason would take betrayals HORRIBLY, arguably he'd take it the hardest, it isn't easy to anger him but a broken promise, a broken trust, drives him absolutely insane.
When Jason Grace wakes up, he's surrounded by friends. He's holding hands with a beautiful girl who says that they're in love, and there’s a boy with a wild grin who says they’re best friends. Jason doesn’t know what’s going on, but he knows he's surrounded by people who care for him and want to help him.
When Percy Jackson wakes up, he's almost completely alone. His only connection is a wolf that seems to be judging his every move as it decides his worth. He's fighting for his life and desperately searching to find a place that would take him in and accept him.
When Jason and Percy were switched, they didn't just have their physical selves swapped. They had their lives swapped. Jason got to believe that someone loved him, and Percy got to experience what it was like to have no one.
