MASON: You can definitely bring snacks! I'll trust your mom's brownies are good.

MASON: Definitely the maximoff twins. Have you settled on anything?

MARLEY: They are, I promise. I wouldn't lie about brownies.

MARLEY: Oooo that will look so good. Did you decide what you're going to do with your hair? And not yet. I'm thinking I might just wear a lot of black and some fake tattoos and pretend to be a Divergent member. I'm kind of at a loss. I feel like I've used up all my good costumes.

No. There’s this whole episode where the girl’s play poker against the guys, and because the guys don’t think they’ll beat them, the girls go to a poker player to learn how to play and win. Oh, well thank you. I already love Tina, she’s so sweet. Okay, got it. I’ll try not to shoot people when I’m too close to them. And all of those rules seem very easy to keep up with. I can do that. That’s what I figured. It’s easier to learn how to do something by just doing it, getting an explanation, no matter how detailed, might still be hard.

They play paintball in Friends? Fine, we can call it that if you want. Still think it’s kinda sexy when you do it. Tina’s a total bro. A hot Korean bro. You’ll love her, she’s a good choice. Too close is like, fifteen feet? Not sure on the specifics, but it hurts a lot more when you’re right up in a person’s grill. Sometimes I screw with Finn and hit him when I’m close, but you don’t gotta worry about anyone doing that to you. They say you’re not supposed to play under the influence, but I’ve definitely had a couple beers before heading into the field. You’re also not supposed to shoot shit unless you know what you’re shooting or you can see what it is, but sometimes sticking your gun out there and shooting like a mad man can save your life. Those are the only ones I ignore. There aren’t a ton of rules. The biggest one is keeping your mask on, and that one’s for real cause you can lose an eye or some shit if you don’t stick to that one. Pre gaming never hurts. It’s the Puckerman way. And you’ll learn a lot more that way, me just explaining it won’t do much.

You don’t know what you’re talking about.

If repeating this to yourself over and over, helps motivate you like a self help tape then go for it. But what I know, is that Jake is not on our team during this and I know your panties are drier than my nana’s attic but no will excuse you if you trip over your own Jake drooling tongue.

What’s wrong with that? We get enough competition from outside groups.

Because then it wouldn’t be a competition. Just some sad group of misfits geeking out over music together.

Why wouldn’t you?

I’m not sure I believe you.

MASON: Hey guys, don't forget!!! Halloween Night (next Friday). McCarthy Residence, 9:30PM. Costumes are a must (unless you're LAME) because why not? Bring what you consider to be your scariest movie, too. Whatever's voted Scariest movie is not only watched, but the person who brought it gets a prize if everyone's genuinely freaked by the end. #McCarthyHalloween

MARLEY: You can definitely could me in! I'll be there in a costume and with a movie. Do you want me to bring anything else? My mom makes some mean brownies.

MARLEY: Also, did you and Madison decide on a costume?

[marrosesings-blog]

Thanks, Harmony! How could I not be excited though? Are you excited? for Invitationals?

It’s nice to see that you’re so excited. And as you should be. I’m confident that you’re in for an amazing experience.

[marrosesings-blog]

I’m sorry! I just know that cheery coke seem to be universally loved, which is why I suggested it!

You’ve never tried it? So you were just telling me to try something that could have been the most disgusting thing in the world? Not cool, Marls. 

[marrosesings-blog]

After todays practice, I can say I’m definitely having a blast. And being apart of the Troubletones does make me feel like kind of a bad ass.

Oh we have a blast. Having new people will make it even better and probably make us sound even more bad ass than we do.

[marrosesings-blog]

Oh, okay. I was just saying what I’d hope to be there, but I’ll make sure not to mention it it public any more. Really? I’ll definitely take you up on that offer. Thanks, Brittany.

Remember that you’re totally not supposed to tell people what’s on the setlist. Q and Santana get way mad about that. And if you need any extra help learning the dance routines, you can totally call on me.

[marrosesings-blog]

That sounds like a lot. Hopefully it calms down for you soon. I’m good, excited about Invitationals this week. What about you?

Oh you know, school work and stuff like that. Takes me a while to study and everything. How are you doing?

[marrosesings-blog]

It might be full of surprises, but someone doesn’t just become surprisingly bad at something else over night. I’m going to practice and I’m going to get better, simple as that. He’s not the competition. We’re all apart of the JV team together. And I don’t have a doe eyed look. He’s just a really good dancer and it’s impressive.

Oh you never know, the girl in Showgirls never thought she’d be pushed down the stairs, did she? Life is full of surprises. Interesting but remember that it’s in your best interest to not get too close to the competition. With that doe eyed look you sport, it’s pretty clear that you’re easily swayed.

[marrosesings-blog]

Yeah, I’m not going to lie, but I’m expecting big things.

Yes, it was. I ended up flipping a coin because it was so hard for me to choose between the two teams. If they do, you can bet I’ll put The New Directions on the top of my list. Really? Maybe that means you’ll get a solo!

With three captains, I’d definitely hope so too.

…it was? Oh! Well, I’m sorry to not have you as a part of the team this time around either, but hopefully they’ll do another invitational later on in the year. We could all always use the extra practice, and Rachel’s been really cool about thinking it’s a good chance to let other people shine and see if they’re competition-ready. 

[marrosesings-blog]

I don’t know. I don’t think I look anything like George Clooney, but you could pass as Will Smiths son. It’s nice to know you have my back, but right now I don’t think we have to hit up the rumor mill. Exactly. Like who would want to repeat chemistry? No one, I’m guessing. I don’t know, but maybe you could see if anyone would be interested in making one for you.

Oh I know, I’m just crazy. That works for me, I have no problem living through your trouble making side. Okay, that sounds like a plan. I think you will though, it get’s good as it get’s going. Maybe you’ll even find yourself relating to some of the characters. I’m totally up for it. I want to bring my A game to the Troubletones. Exciting, I was having a hard time choosing between the TTs and ND. Did you like your first day of practice?

Hey, that could have worked. We’re both definitely hot enough to work the whole movie-star-blood thing. We’re way too awesome for this town. Say the word and I’ll hit up the rumor mill. I guess that’s a pro of showing up… as much as Chemistry sucks, it would suck way more if I had to repeat the class. S’mores day should be a school-wide holiday. Where do I petition for that?

Whoa, Rose, slow it down. You’ve almost got me worried, you party animal. Fair enough. I think I’ve got the whole trouble-making thing covered. I guess we’ll just have to live vicariously through each other. You do that, and then I’ll watch Gilmore Girls and tell you if I ever move past all the fast talking. After school works for me, if you’re up for it. You’ll be awesome, Marley. Don’t sweat it. I ended up with the New Directions, which was my top choice, so I’m cool with that. You? 

[marrosesings-blog]

I definitely know how difficult it can be. I don’t know who I want to be apart of most, The Troubletones or the New Directions. I like everyone apart of each groups and I kind of just tossed a penny in the air to decide for me. Hopefully this week will make is easier for me to choose at the end of the year. Oh, and don’t worry about tell this to me. I promise I’m really great at keeping secrets.

I’m a little shocked though, that you and Mason didn’t both choose to be on the New Directions. It’s like you two are joined at the hip.

I did! It’s so nice of her. I can’t believe people have the audacity to say she’s doing all of this for publicity. Those are both great things to love. I just heard the Heather’s soundtrack recently, and that’s been playing a lot on my laptop. But my favorite has got to be wicked. I’m a big fan of The Wizard of Oz though, so I may be biased.

 I don’t think so. Maybe we could suggest the idea to Mercedes, Santana and Quinn before deciding to do it, and see what they say.

PRIVATE

Can I tell you a secret? This is everything that I want. I want to be a Troubletone. I have since I first heard them sing, and really since I first heard about them. All the New Direction people are being so nice to me though, so it makes it difficult, you know? I really hope I haven’t been wrong, and this is the place for me. It’d be great if it was the same for you, Marls. Because you’re a super nice person, and it’d be great to be teammates. 

Anyway, Taylor Swift is a total sweetheart. Did you hear that she recently donated like fifty thousand dollars to this little girl that has cancer? How precious is that? My favorite show tune? That’s an incredibly hard question. I guess my absolute favorite is “For Good” from Wicked. I’m currently obsessed with The Last Five Years and Legally Blonde, so that’s what I’ve been jamming out too lately. What about you? Do you have a favorite? 

Hmm. That could be a good idea, Marls. Show them how serious we are about all this? You don’t think that’d be overstepping, do you? 

[marrosesings-blog]

Hey, we could totally pull a Friends and get some training outside of the paintball grounds and beat all of you boys. Don’t overlook up. Uh, thanks. I wouldn’t really say it’s sexy, just something all human beings should support. I didn’t know that, but if she’s not an option, then I think Tina would be great. Okay, I won’t close when I’m too close, I’ll remember not to do that. But could you tell me what’s too close? And what rules you tend to ignore, so I can keep a look out for them? Okay, well then I’m down for some pre game practice. It’s not like it would hurt.

Sure. I mean the dude’s would end up creaming you guys, we’re old pros, but it’d be fun. Feminism. Sexy. I’ll see if she’s up for it. But Dani and I don’t get along, she’s a hard no. She’d probably try to take a nut shot and complain cause her goal in life is being the ultimate fun sucker. Everything with guns is dangerous. That’s why you shouldn’t shoot when you’re too close and crap like that. You won’t die or anything, and sometimes we ignore rules, but still. Hell yeah it’s allowed. I can make it happen.

[marrosesings-blog]

I hope so.

Thanks Tina. I’m a little bummed not to be apart of the New Directions, because it was like a tie in my head, but if anything like this happens again, hopefully I can join your team.

I’m sure they’ve already got something all ready to go for you guys. 

Congratulations, Marley. I’m sure you’ll have fun; the Troubletones are great girls.
