why am i so bad at being good?

people are PMO turning it into a circular argument and making it seem like zks are the ones making it abut ships when we are just RESPONDING to being prevented from joining Kataan-- I mean.. katara week. everyone defending it has their heads up their asses.

Guys! I’m making this post quickly because I had somewhere to be. But I’ll probably make a longer post about it tomorrow. The thing I hate about people undermining ALAYM, and saying she’s lying to herself or other stuff like that, is because this song is so much more than that. It’s the same reason people say her feelings for Fiyero are crucial to the story. Because it’s the first time she truly takes time to think and act on what she wants. Jon Chu said it every time he talked about the song. Her saying her lines at the beginning is important to her and the audience, because it’s when she declares what she actually wants. It’s not her letting someone else decide for her, or following someone else. She is saying what she really wants. And when they actually start interacting, Fiyero lets her take the lead, she guides them through the place. She levitates them. It’s her finding herself and what she wants and acting on it. Not caring about other people or the consequences. The song is a love song, but it’s mainly about Elphaba. It’s for her to find herself in a way she hasn’t been able to before. This is one of the only times Elphaba is unapologetically herself, and taking that away and making it some sort of miserable moment, takes away from Elphaba as a person. As long as you’re mine in the movie is more about Elphaba finding herself rather than unnecessary Fiyero scenes. Him being there, her attraction for him, and her acting on it, is only a result of her truly understanding herself and her wants first. That’s why the song and their relationship is so important.

ZK Fanwork Appreciation Week Day 6: Court

Zutara Week 2026 Day 6: Court

Zuko was not subtle at all when he started trying to court Katara... 🌸 @zutaraweek

The line means that Fiyero didn’t have to look past Elphaba's skin to love her. He, unlike Glinda, saw her for who she was, instead of trying to change things about her. It also is a hint to him losing his Vinkun blue eyes when he becomes the Scarecrow.

Zutara Week Day 4: Visions

Based on @kachuusha’s idea (thank you bestie)

@zutaraweek day 5: legacy

ZK Week 2026: LEGACY (for KING)

.

Deep Water AU:

Itijuk knows who he is and what he wants. The life of Prince Zuko is far behind him, buried under a sunken ship. His fate was chosen when Hakoda saved him from the water's depths and named him a survivor. This will be his destiny, if he has any say in the matter.

(As it turns out, he doesn't.)

.

Or: When the Chief's daughter carries the Avatar's dead body into the Southern Warrior's camp, Zuko finds there's some things one cannot forsake.

.

KING AU:

Come morning, Ozai will be Fire Lord. His wife has planted poison in his father's tea and joined dinner to secure an alibi. Pointless, he thinks, she will be gone by dawn as well. Ozai doesn't spare her a second glance. He's busy with his glory. Busy with his drink.

Suddenly, the world blurs and his hands begin to tremble.

“Oh, dear husband,” Ursa whispers lovingly in his ear as Fire Lord Azulon bursts into the room, Royal Guards trailing behind him. “You never did appreciate subtlety.”

(Come morning, Ozai is found dead in his cell.) .
