Haha, I ship Gelphie in both, but I actually like book!Fiyeraba more than in the musical (mostly because I hate Fiyero in the musical... not the character himself but the changes he represents... and the fact that they just HAD to create a 2 girls wanting 1 guy love triangle... when there already was a perfectly good love triangle in the book... just with Elphaba in the middle, not Fiyero.)

I liked book Fiyeraba too, it's just that book Gelphie seemed more appealing somehow; tragically beautiful (heh, c wat I done thar?). Honestly, I can't choose and just sort of drift between the two of them at random moments. Pink goes with green, but so do blue diamonds. I have to say I did prefer the book's love triangle, though; still, I suppose they felt Broadway wasn't quite ready for a lesbian pairing between the two main characters, subtle as it is.

Oh, I totally prefer book gelphie over book Fiyeraba, I just meant I prefer book fiyeraba over musical fiyeraba. But I totally agree with you - whenever I read the book I actually get all these fiyeraba feels and I'm like "what no gelphie is meant to be" and then I start crying.

Sadly I think the producers made a too-conservative mistake with the musical. I don't think Broadway "wasn't ready" for a prominently featured lesbian relationship in a musical - the most famous one was in fact originally done by Idina Menzel as well (RENT, of course) – and that did pretty damn well. I know where the decision came from, but I still strongly disagree with it. No helping it now, though; and the musical is still great, but it disappoints me when people only know the musical and not the book.

I actually saw the musical before I read the book (although I at least knew there was a book), whilst I'd heard it was darker I was pretty surprised; I hadn't expected it to be such an adult book given the musical and the fact it was based on The Wizard of Oz.

Tragically, I've never seen Rent, although I had to sing a song from it at a drama group once.
