I also like that they include “palaces” as something Glinda is excited about seeing in the emerald city because you’re kind of meant to assume it’s because she thinks wealth and royalty is cool. But true Glinda enjoyers know she would be dragging Elphaba around the whole time going “look Elphie! Evidence of late galentine frescoes! Those date back to the reign of Ozma the librarian :-))))” and then doing a backflip cause she was so hyped

elphaba being an unmasked autistic because no one ever expected anything good to come from her anyway and glinda being a high masking autistic due to the rigid expectations placed on her by her family and ozian society at large is the essential ingredient in making the tension between them so palpable

all my love to other autistic people who just know jack shit. the ones who have no "infodump" locked and loaded, nothing they can rattle off the top of their head. the ones who have a specific interest in certain things but still not knowing a lot about it. autistic people who will never be able to memorise fun facts about something no matter how fundamental it is to them as a subject. the point of autistic interests are not being a secret expert on random shit, you just like it a real big amount

hey quick PSA but “reading before bed to wind down” only works if you’re normal about books btw. if you aren’t you are going to end up awake at 2:52am after finishing the whole book just trust me on this one

elphaba being like "look at me" and then glinda's face lighting up and then she has to be like "no, try again you stupid dyke" is the funniest possible way they could've delivered that scene
