The (Stage) Musical version that is.
My other thought is Urianger because I am... Basic
Gold: [immediately triggered]
Okay but the hilarity of her being Actually Nice
Just... Poorly Socialized
(and hitting him with a broom and then immediately apologizing because OH YOU ARENT ACTUALLY TRYING TO KILL HER OR WHATEVER)
As with Disney Belle and his understanding of pop culture he knows it's not her. He knows. But he is also suddenly having to be reminded to actually deal with his trauma
You are cool Elphaba but just know there is another version of you that if she shows up here is just gonna get murdered over and over
Okay but if you tell her, she'd probably help
Or at least not stop until the like. 20th time.
Gold is very for team!We Do Vengeance Inigo Montoya Style, not team!standard vengeance is bad-storyline
Elphaba is team "There's a line somewhere where you stop getting justified vengeance and are just as bad, sometimes ignoring someone is better revenge than murdering them Again"
But also How Dare That Bitch Ruin Her Name Further
Gold: I'll stop when my son stops being dead or she starts staying dead.
Elphaba: ....wow I wish my father cared even a fraction of that much.
Gold: [I'm sure she does too] You have my sympathies and my empathy.
Elphaba: .......okay what do you want? Nobody is nice without wanting something from me.
Gold: [Oh that's a mood.] I would be more up front if I wanted something.
Elphaba: ...fine. well. Good. I'm not helping people anymore anyway. I'm going to the library.
...yeah I think I'll toss her up on the TDM next round lol
Last time I had her in a game she.... Ended up accidentally married to Zaknafien from the Drizz't series
And also a Fairy Godmother.
god I love the chaos of cross-canon shipping I can't
Oh it was because of very.... Dramatic Reasons. Drizz't got arrested for Bullshit Reasons and she pretended to be his Step-Mother to get him out of jail and the lie got out of control
She then hit Jarlaxle with her broom for showing up because Drow
But yeah Elphaba would probably be Genuinely Offended at ouat-wicked witch
~~and slowly adopt God as Father Figure. He's Statistically Better than both the guy who raised her and the Wizard~~
If SOMEONE had just done THAT there wouldn't even be a problem
HES A GREAT FAIRY GODUNCLE
Tbh I fell off of watching during the.... It was either during the Oz bit and I came back for Frozen or the other way around.
Or first fell off during the Belle Stuff and kinda checked back in during those
I remember giving a Costuming Care about Elsa
Elsa's costuming pissed me off
well, that season was really when the costuming suddenly took a drop in quality
but Disney was so adamant about the Frozen characters being direct copies of the original property that Elsa's costuming was pretty much "Hot Topic Brand Recreation"
Honestly the eternal Disney Meddling with Frozen in general has ruined any crossover it's in (LOOKING AT YOU KINGDOM HEARTS)
that said, Anna was so perfectly spot on in character that she was a bright spot in an overly rushed plot that did nothing but make me angry
but I dropped off shortly after because I gave up on this show NOT giving me anxiety attacks every week worrying how they were gonna screw things up next
but the Oz plot has some good key character moments despite me having a LOT OF PROBLEMS with it
including a Back to the Future style finale that in any other season I would have loved
This is why we have Fanfic
yeah the series I have been working on since 2021 would ignore everything after Neverland were it not for the fact that I needed Gold getting kicked out of storybrooke at the end of the Frozen story as a canon point
everything established as canon after that point I am ignoring and rewriting
...when we actually get back to Storybrooke. It's a crossover with The Stand because the 2020 miniseries uses the Storybrooke set/location as a stand-in for Ogunquit, Maine
Gold does not like Stephen King Land
but he also wound up displacing on some weird teenager and getting too involved with things that don't involve him finding a way home
It's awful being a teenager again.
she has two modes (now that i am at my desktop)
