ok im aware thats not his given role but it shouldve been theyre literally the same

• both have a hard exterior (tinman's literal hard exterior - fiyero's emotionally reserved one)
• instead of having a girl leave him (like tinmans girl did in the books for another man) he is the girl in this situation, torn between two women (glinda and elphaba)
• his dancing scene(s) couldve been foreshadowing that as the tinman, he has more limited mobility and can't dance as well as he used to

in my mind fiyero and tinman are the same thank u
