At some point over the years, Hawkfrost has been cemented as the "spare" for me. You only need one son for an heir; the second son is just the spare. He's not important until something goes wrong.
In my headcanons, Tigerstar wants Brambleclaw to be his successor. He needs Hawkfrost to lure Brambleclaw in and disarm him, but Hawkfrost is just a pawn. Hawkfrost knows this and it burns him, he wants to be the important son, he wants to be the one his father wants. He'll do anything to earn Tigerstar's approval.

More Gelphie horses 🫶🏻🐴
Galinda is definitely a domesticated show horse from Oz, probably used for things like parades. While Elphaba is a horse from the Vinkus and has a close bond with Fiyero. Not sure how these two ended up meeting yet…Elphie def ends up in the Emerald City, perhaps captured by the Wizard as she’s the only horse who matches his aesthetic. Idk.
My conspiracy theory is that one of the reasons they fired Stephanie J. Block for the role of Elphaba in 2000 and replaced her with Idina Menzel at the end of the OBC workshops is because SJB played the role SO gay that it was quickly crossing the line of plausible deniability. Like she doesn't seem to be able to help herself.
And thank god she eventually got to play the role on Broadway (arguably one of the best - if not THE best - actresses who ever did), because we finally got to see her get super fucking handsy and stare lovingly into Glinda's eyes inches away from her face for three hours:
Like holy shit why do you keep looking at Annaleigh Ashford like you want to eat her alive??
Plus I cannot emphasize enough just how effective and moving this particular version of For Good is. Straight up feels like wedding vows.
(Ironically, she also has the best chemistry with Fiyero's character, and arguably the very sweetest performance of As Long As You're Mine in the entire slime tutorial universe.* So I'm just reading this as a Thropple Truther performance.)
*But that's just because she was (and still is) literally married to him. So they get uh. A little carried away in their performance. *cut to Sebastian Arcelus holding lantern up, his face covered in green makeup from aggressively making out with his wife on stage for several minutes* Apparently the makeup team HATED that song for them.
In utter disbelief
