I am a salty bitch that everyone is obsessed with this fan fiction relationship and nobody cares about how gay Dorothy and Ozma are with each other in canon.
Someone make a movie about those two instead, damnit.

Seconded! Too much is tied to that mangled adaption, and now the feature film fanfic based on it will ensure it keeps stagnating as the sole vision of Oz.
Fanfiction that does everyone dirty at that. Tin Woodsman and Scarecrow, Dorothy's gay uncles who exhibit a wholesome relationship whilst raising philosophical questions about personhood and how belief interacts with reality? Straight normal guys who eventually get turned into other things A and B. Oscar, stage magician who ends up in a position of power, ends up letting it get to his head, abdicates, risks his life saving Dorothy and fights gargoyles whilst dual wielding flintlock pistols, and ends up getting to learn real magic as Glinda's apprentice? He's just a fascist asshole now. Glinda, 7 foot tall god-queen based on the author's feminist mother-in-law, commanding an army of amazons? She's a basic bitch now.
Hell, from what I can tell, whenever Dorothy shows up in the Wickedsphere, she has even less agency than MGM Dorothy.
The people deserve to see Ozma's piss-and-vinegar girlhusband on the big screen, damn it!

Really, y'all? Wicked fucking rocks, and it's bringing new attention to the original Oz books as well. I don't really see how that could be a bad thing. I'm personally thrilled that Judy Garland doesn't have to be the undisputed face of Oz for the rest of time. Different interpretations can have value of their own!

Wicked is wonderful. Ì love it. It should have it's own tag, though. Can we please remember Dorothy's canonically gay as and Ozma's a transbian, now?

Yeah, I'd probably be a lot less salty if the Oz tag wasn't just Wicked fanart.
^ It's quite a bit more effective if you keep trying. I'll slap a tag request onto this fanart as well (something else you can do too)

^ Ok, there isn't an actual Doujin: Wicked tag yet, so I suggested for the Oz one to be removed and for a Wicked one to be created. Again, though, I encourage others to do the same.

Well, now that this stuff's been moved to the Wicked tag, I tried again to put in requests for a bunch of high quality (proper) Wizard of Oz/Land of Oz/Oz yuri images - not just one or two this time. With any luck, we might finally get a Pairing: Dorothy x Ozma tag yet.
