#like blaine is a diva but kurt is A Diva

[blossoms-and-possums]

keep seeing tiktok edits abt blaine anderson being a diva but where are the edits of kurt being the diva ??

[cryscendo]

kurt hummel (and blaine anderson) + @screenshotsofdespair

[nicoise]

i actually blame blaine's parents for why he's Like That

i bet blaine's parents were decently loving (were genuinely concerned and spent time with him after the school shooting episode) but incapable of understanding him. and even though their view of him is incorrect, they still don't really like what they see (see: getting hands dirty to restore masculinity). blaine grows up being made to feel like there's something wrong with him which is why he tries so hard to sham normal. because he tries so hard, he's also afraid of messing up (silly love songs: "i don't wanna screw this up.")

because he doesn't trust his parents to not be judgmental of him, he stops confiding in them at a young age. this is consistent with how he ends up planning to transfer back to dalton in s4 without telling anyone, how he's so stubborn not to admit his guilty pleasure, and how he picks a fight with kurt about texting chandler rather than admit his worries about kurt going to NYC.

i feel like a major breakdown in his relationship with kurt was that bit in the s6 breakup: "i feel like you're just silently judging me." guess why he's sensitive about that

because blaine thinks that just being himself isn't enough to get people to like him, he goes out of his way to do things for people. he takes on the role of kurt's protector which lasts into s3 (michael slushie incident) and becomes insecure when he can't hold onto it (tested). he sang at the s2 prom even though it's not his prom or his glee club. he helped tina with her diva week thing even though he was sick. you get the sense that in some way helping people helps him feel secure in his self worth.

the distant-but-loving thing with his parents probably also explains why he's terrible at long distance relationships. it's easy for him to assume kurt forgot about him because he's already inclined not to fully trust people's affection for him

[fallevs]

No one asked, but I thought, why not?

If Glee kids listened to Italian music

(+ links to the songs if you are interested in listening to them and judging whether I got the genre right; some lyrics too)

Rachel: Mina

Considered the greatest performer in the history of Italian pop music, Mina is definitely the ultimate diva! That is why Rachel loves her. And maybe, just like Mina, it could also happen to her to retire from the stage but forty years later continue to make hits from the walls of her home!

Her favorite song is Se Telefonando.

(If looking into your eyes, I knew how to say "enough!", I would look at you. But I can't explain that our love, barely born, is already finished.)

Finn: Ligabue

Ligabue does a genre that Finn really appreciated, given his penchant for alternative rock music, but what he appreciated most was the words of his songs. Ligabue talks about love, of course, but mostly about life, youth and those tastes and smells that we sometimes forget because we take them for granted.

In fact, his favorite song was Certe Notti. He listened to it on repeat in the period after high school, when he still had to figure out who he was and what to do.

(Some nights the car is hot and where it takes you it decides. Some nights the road doesn't matter and what matters is to hear it go. Some nights the radio playing Neil Young seems to have figured out who you are. Some nights resemble a vice that you don't want to stop, never stop.)

Blaine: Annalisa

Blaine thinks that Annalisa's best phase is up to 2022 when, for marketing reasons, she started making more commercial music. However, Annalisa has a wonderful and powerful voice (many call her the New Mina) and her old songs, the early hits, are true poems. But that of course doesn't mean that Blaine doesn't love to dance to the notes of her more jaunty songs!

His favorite is definitely Questo bellissimo gioco which Blaine listened to assiduously during the breakup. When he (and Kurt) believed there was still room for hope and the opportunity to start over, accompanied by the sunshine and the opportunity to make mistakes. A solution had to be created between them, but they see their relationship as a beautiful game that they continue to play (4x14, for example)

(Love burns the crumpled afternoons, the two of us hugging each other. Trying to find a point of balance between what to say and what to do. And this sweet sickness of ours that keeps me behind your vigil. Too busy courting some of your mental space without knowing if really what you give, can really be enough for me.)

Kurt: Marco Mengoni

Marco is one of those artists who, with his voice, his poems, his music, makes you vibrate in another dimension– makes you feel pure love! His are quite intimate songs that touch chords that, as we know, Kurt tends to keep hidden within himself.

At a specific time in his life, he listened to Venere e Marte on repeat. And you can understand why.

(I can make a thousand promises to you, or swallow them like pills. And swallow these words without even tasting them. This world alone is not much, yes, but neither is it in two. But with you it's a little less dark. Even when the sky is covered with clouds, and you were waiting for the rain to stop but you stayed all day long, I hoped it would rain harder. Because it's good to have you around again.)

Tina: Subsonica

Tina is shy, quiet and awkward. Hers is a mask she wears to avoid getting hurt and others hurting her, but she manages to find herself in music. She loves Subsonica because they are not only a band to listen to but also to watch and discover. Intense and charged, just like her.

Her favorite song of the moment is Universo. It is about a perpetual conflict with herself and the world, told through a succession of metaphorical images such as forests, oceans. The vibes that Tina loves and in which she sees herself a lot.

(Who knows if ever, if sooner or later, among the swarming of people; if you will meet the peace that life has always denied you. If it will end the war in you, the cold friction with the world; if you understand that my universe today is you.)

Artie: Fabri Fibra

The progenitor of Italian rap, Fabri Fibra represents freedom of expression and imagination. Hated even a little by many, he elevated an audience that existed only under the radar. He unhinged the hierarchies of the music industry, dispensed rawness and irony, often coupling them, in doing so he silenced bigots and censors. That's why Artie loves him, because he is someone who is not afraid to speak his mind. Which Artie sometimes fails to do.

In fact he loves Non crollo, because life is hard, but he doesn't give up.

(And this is the reason why I don't give up. Even if I'm with shattered nerves, stoned to the core, I don't collapse. They are squeezing me by the neck. They are strangling me preventing me from taking off.)

Santana: Loredana Berté

Even today, Loredana Bertè, at 73 years old, is considered a queen of music. Since her early days, she has been able to make her mark in the entertainment world. A true rock diva, feminist and nonconformist. Like Santana, Loredana Bertè never minded the rules. That's why she loves her.

Her favorite song is, of course, the iconic Non sono una signora. Her motto, basically.

(I am not a lady; one with all stars in life. I am not a lady but one for whom the war never ended. I am not a lady; one with just few marks in life.)

Quinn: Elisa

Elisa is one of the most melodic, delicate and at the same time powerful Italian voices. That's why Quinn loves listening to her and sees herself a lot in her lyrics. Elisa's voice is an expression of the soul, and her compositions reveal its fragility and strength.

Eppure Sentire is her song. Words imbued with a poetic sensibility and tell a story of inner strength and perseverance.

(One step away from possible, one step away from you. Afraid to decide, afraid of me. Of everything I don't know. Of everything I don't have. Yet feel, in dreams at the bottom of a cry, in days of silence, there is a sense of you.)

Mercedes: Mia Martini

Loredana Berté's sister, Mia Martini is considered by many the Italian Whitney Houston. A scratchy, rough and powerful voice, that is why she is Mercedes' favorite. Unfortunately, however, Mia is a misunderstood artist. She will be removed from the spotlight because of the nastiness and jealousy of the entertainment world; the suffering will be such that she will lose her life at only 47 years old. Yet her voice has never been forgotten.

Her song is Libera. You can understand why.

(Free to speak, free to search, free to do and undo, free to be just myself. Free to understand, free to feel, free to realize an end and to be wrong. I know well what I want and what I don't want. I have my pride, what does that have to do with you? A woman used to walking alone.)

Brittany: Lorella Cuccarini

Brittany is Lorella's fan more because of her dancing career than her singing one, but that doesn't mean she doesn't love her songs! At 58 years old, she is still considered one of the most beautiful and talented small screen dancers. The best showgirl of the 1980s. May Brittany aspire to be like her?

However, her favorite song to dance to is undoubtedly La notte vola. They also resemble each other, don't they?

Puck: Vasco Rossi

Besides being the undisputed idol of many and Italian rocker par excellence, he is considered the worthy rival of Ligabue. 70 years and almost 50 years into his career, Vasco's music has accompanied generations with his rock lyrics as well as lyrics about love and life.

That is why, although Puck does not admit it, his favorite lately is Canzone. It reminds him of someone who is no longer there. Someone he never told how important he was to him. His best friend.

(And when I meet you one day, maybe in the street, maybe right under your house. Look at the chance, though! Look at the splendid fate! Cruel and splendid. And meanwhile the days go by and memories fade and habits change. It was splendid.)

[klaineccfanficlibrary]

Finchel, Klaine, and Polin pt. 1

Rachel, Kurt, and Penelope

This... first of all is a reply to this post :: HERE

It's a been an interesting discourse and thought experiment given by @foundfam2754 and it ended up being so long I'm at least splitting it up into two parts, and possibly three...

****

Before digging in, a couple of prefaces -- clearly, these are fictional characters written by very different people, and whose worlds just work in vastly different ways. And I think at the end of the day, this is kind of a thought experiment about how stories and characters can function in similar ways within narratives? At least that's how I'm looking at it.

Also, I'm speaking conversationally more than anything. I don't expect anyone to agree with my interpretation - and as I'm talking about fictional characters, I always like to make the disclaimer that fictional characters are always reflected by the prism of the viewer's experiences, and we all take away from stories something different.

I guess, also, it got me thinking about how similar Finn and Blaine are, and I never really thought about it (all these years later) but it's unsurprising. Ryan Murphy and Co ha(d)ve a tendency to write the same type of characters over and over, and there are a lot of similarities in the Finchel and Klaine storylines (some of it intentional, some of it not). But does make for a fascinating analysis when compared to Polin.

[This first part, though, is really about Rachel, Kurt, and Penelope -- Finn, Blaine, and Colin will be later, as well as exploring some relationship dynamic stuff.]

****

Alright, so I want to start with Penelope and her parallels with Rachel vs Kurt. It's the easier one to compare because I think Rachel and Kurt aren't that far apart from each other. Ryan Murphy and Co really only had a handful of character types -- most characters fall into a few kinds of roles, and literally everyone on the show can be filtered into one of the few.

Rachel and Kurt, are, really, almost the same character. And a lot of the traits that they share, incidentally, they also share with Penelope.

Using some of your examples -- both Rachel and Kurt have been ignored for most of their life. Both have been bullied for being different, and for not fitting into what society deems is worthy. Both have very few people who truly understand them, or even notice them - and their qualities of goodness. Both have had to claw their way to being seen, and at some personal risk.

And I think (show) Penelope shares ALL of that with them.

Kurt and Rachel both, also, have a bit of a dark streak. They can both be divas at times. They can both be sharp and cutting with their words and actions. And, honestly, so can Penelope.

(All of them, also, have an interest and fascination with gossip, which is a funny aside.)

And then there's the point about insecurities. And, I feel like I need more time to think on this. All three of them are socially awkward. All three of them are also self-assured and well grounded within themselves. And all three of them do have insecurities, but I do think it's all in different ways. (But I may need more time to expand on that).

There is one huge, fundamental difference between Rachel and Kurt, though. I don't even mean this in a derogatory way but, Rachel is more selfish, more ambitious, and more willing to sacrifice everything to gain her goals in life. (And thus, often succeeds at being at the top.) Kurt, meanwhile, will always put those he loves first, even at great personal sacrifice. Kurt has an empathy that Rachel often lacks. And while I think that Penelope might land a little in between the two, I do think she does lean on the Kurt side, as she is softer and more caring than Rachel often is.

Then there's how they love. And it's interesting where you write that Rachel wants to be wanted while Penelope wants to be loved. And I do agree with you - but it's interesting that I think how they want to be wanted and/or loved is different. (Because I think Penelope and Kurt love similarly over Rachel)

Rachel and Kurt both crave feeling loved, because both think that they're undeserving of it for various reasons. (And, weirdly, I don't think Penelope believes she's undeserving of it - I think she believes she just won't get it from the source of where she wants it from, which is similar to both Rachel and Kurt but yeah nuance differences there.)

and... It's kind of funny that both Rachel and Kurt both fall for Finn (!!) for similar reasons -- it's a hero worship. It's this belief that Finn is going to give them the love they want and desire but feel is ultimately out of their reach. And yeah, I can see Penelope starting her crush in the same way -- that Colin is someone who was kind to her, who was nice in a world that isn't nice, that seems to look past the weirdness and oddity and the taboo and is like - I like you.

And that's such a powerful thing!

(As an aside, Kurt is going to do this same thing with Blaine.)

The thing that I really want to get into, though, and I'm going to just tease here because I'll probably get into it in a future part -- I think while Klaine, Finchel, and Polin may start out in similar places I think Klaine and Polin have something Finchel doesn't necessarily have -- a foundation of a very solid friendship.

And, again, I'll get into this with a later portion, but I realize this might where we really start to disagree. Because I think Finchel is a relationship that is meaningful for Finn and Rachel while in high school, while they're young and figuring themselves out, but it never progresses to an adult relationship. But, I mean, I also think that Jesse and Rachel are the better match. I think they like and understand each other on a more fundamental level, and they make more sense to me as a couple than Finn and Rachel.

(So while I think Jesse is nothing like Colin (omg that thought is making me laugh) I do think (for me) St. Berry's relationship dynamics are more align with Klaine and Polin -- but again, I'll get way more into that later.)

Anyway, a few more Rachel, Kurt, and Penelope things...

I think all three of them love and feel very deeply. Rachel wears her emotions on her sleeve. Kurt buries them deep and keeps them very protected. Again, I think Penelope ends up a little inbetween -- she exclaims you should declare how you feel fervently and loudly. But she also protects her heart, and keeps her feelings buried, and she's very protective over those she loves.

I think Kurt and Penelope are more so old school romantics. Rachel enjoys romance but is much flashier and gaudier about it.

One of the big things, though, that Rachel and Penelope have in common that Kurt just doesn't --- Rachel and Penelope are women. And there are struggles there Kurt's just not going to get.

Okay, so a quick note about Book Penelope who is... different. She's older -- and perhaps wiser and calmer. She's also softer and kinder. Despite being Whistledown for all those years, she doesn't have the darker edges that show Penelope has (which is more akin to Kurt and Rachel). If anyone, she's a lot more like Mercedes -- but Mercedes wouldn't bother with wasting her time being in love with anyone for fifteen years.

So yeah, I'm going to stop here for now. :)

There are more meanings of Barbie characters' names?

[burkleswinifred]

still haven't written anything for my klaine hsm au, but i'm going to take a moment to talk about my hypothetical idea for it because i have nothing better to do (and idk maybe talking about will help me get in the mood to actually write). under the cut incase your not interested in reading it.

So Kurt is Ryan in this au and Blaine is Zeke. Why Zeke instead of Chad? I don't really know, Blaine just gives off Zeke vibes to me. Also the idea of Blaine trying to impress Kurt by baking for him is adorable. The general plot that I've come up with is similar to the first hsm movie with the school not liking when people don't stick to the status quo. Samcedes will take the part of Troy and Gabriella, so when they try out for the musical, Blaine figures he can talk about his passion for baking. Like in the movie though, people don't like it. Cut to that scene of Zeke trying to talk to Sharpay and instead it's Blaine asking Kurt if he would come to one of his basketball games (don't know if I should stick with basketball or change it to another sport). Kurt is definitely interested in Blaine, but he's scared of what his diva sister Rachel will think as she's already mad that samcedes might steal their spotlight (but mostly her spotlight). And that's really all I got so far. Still going back and forth between this being a fun little one shot or a fic with a couple chapters with alternating pov's from Kurt and Blaine.

[blurglesmurfklaine]

some unpopulars ive come across

1) will schuester and sue sylvester should have been endgame

2) all versions of blaine after season 2 are ooc

3) quinn is straight

1) will schuester and sue sylvester should have been endgame: strongly agree | agree | neutral | disagree | strongly disagree

i... what... like i'm not saying they're wrong but what i aAM ssying is WHAT? neutral because...... i can kind of see it??? in a fucked up way? but also they should have simply killed each other

2) all versions of blaine after season 2 are ooc: strongly agree | agree | neutral | disagree | strongly disagree

listen. blaine anderson is a mosaic and i am a simple stained glass window designer picking up pieces here and there and hoping that people will see my vision. I COUNTER THAT SEASON 2 BLAINE IS THE ONE THATS OOC!! Bc he was just supposed to be Kurt's Boyfriend from a narrative standpoint in that season, and then afterwards we finally see the layers come off and yeah hes a crazy little bitch diva with daddy issues so i def don't think he was OOC for majority of the show, i think people see what they want to and live ur life but that's not for me!

3) quinn is straight: strongly agree | agree | neutral | disagree | strongly disagree

she LITERALLY had sex with a woman but okay (i see biphobia is in the room with us kfjbgkdhskd)

these were SO FUN and so saucy lmao thanks!!

[homosandhomies]

My favorite solo from each main character on glee (because why not)

SUE: Vogue. “WILL SCHUESTER I HATE YOU”

KURT: Rose’s Turn. Chris Colfer rarely got songs that highlighted ALL his vocal strengths. This song used everything. He had a strong head voice, an amazing mix, and he can EMOTE WITH EVERY INCH OF HIS LIFE. No wonder he got the Golden Globe.

QUINN: This Is A Man’s World. This scene is ridiculous, but out of context the song absolutely slaps. Diana can BELT and she deserved to do it more.

ARTIE: Stronger. Probably my favorite Britney song. Kevin ate. That is all.

PUCK: Only the Good Die Young. This song is so fun and I think Puck’s voice is very underrated. A good ol’ jam. Thank you for repping the Jewish community king ❤️

WILL: Sway. It’s a shame that we never talk about his voice because HOLY SHIT MATTHEW MORRISON IS INCREDIBLE. This man is so talented and we never acknowledge it because of Will Schuester’s shenanigans.

BLAINE: Somewhere Only We Know. You can hate Blaine all you want but you can’t deny the POWER of this song. The love in his eyes is sickening I am not okay right now

FINN: I’ve Gotta Be Me. Given the fact that Cory didn’t have any singing experience before, this song makes me so fucking happy because you can see how much he had grown as a singer, but also how proud he was of himself! Look at him go!!! (Bonus: If I’m bending the rules in terms of what qualifies as a solo I would 100% make his Paradise By the Dashboard Light. That was his undoubtedly his very best vocal performance. It’s SO FUCKING GOOD it makes me go batshit.)

RACHEL: My Man. “She may be difficult but boy can she sing.”

BRITTANY: Run the World. The dancing is definitely the more impressive part of this number, but it still sounds great! This song really highlighted Heather’s strengths, when most of her songs weren’t very memorable in my opinion.

MIKE: Cool. Maybe Tina should be a professional vocal coach because damn look at him go!! Idk why an Asian kid wanted to play the role of a leader of a white supremacist group but at least he sounds great 🤷‍♀️

MERCEDES: I Will Always Love You. Literally every single Mercedes song is perfect, so this was the hardest one for me. This means I had to base it on acting. And she DELIVERS here. It should be illegal to be this talented.

TINA: Because You Loved Me. The fact that this is one of TWO solos that Jenna actually got to finish infuriates me. She was ROBBED because she is an amazing singer.

SANTANA: Nutbush City Limits. LADIES AND GENTLEMAN, MISS NAYA RIVERA. HOLY SHIT. Finn saying before the song, “They say that true divas aren’t really mortal” is so true. This woman was an absolute icon and I will always be blown away by her talent.

JAKE: Let Me Love You (Until You Learn to Love Yourself). It’s so EARNEST and HEARTFELT and Jacob Artist popped off with the acting. And the falsetto!! God it’s just beautiful.

EMMA: Getting Married Today. This is a trio, not a solo, but it’s so fucking good that I HAD to do it. That is literally one of the hardest female songs on Broadway, and for some reason they had Jayma sing it even FASTER than the original version? I can’t imagine the stress of trying to do that, but she was perfect.

SAM: Copacabana. This is just a really fun song! Everyone’s having a good time and Chord sounds amazing.

RYDER: Your Song. This is my favorite Elton John song, and boy was it done justice. The acting is really good in this scene. The mix of anxiety and earnestness coming from Ryder is adorable. He had great chemistry with whoever that girl was. (On a storyline note, I hated how this all developed though. If it had gone my way, Unique would confess it was her, then Ryder would sing this directly to Unique.)

KITTY: Signed, Sealed, Delivered I’m Yours. I just really like this number. Obsessed with Becca’s high notes.

MARLEY: Wrecking Ball. The cheating storyline with Bree was so fucking stupid and shouldn’t have happened. That being said, Melissa ATE what they gave her and left zero crumbs. She really came in like a wrecking ball.

UNIQUE: I Know Where I’ve Been. THIS SONG MAKES ME GO FUCKING CRAZY!!! THE TRANS CHOIR!!!! THE ACTING!!!!! THE FUCKING HIGH NOTE!!!!!! IT’S JUST SO GOOD I CAN’T HANDLE IT!!!!!!! This is the best part of season 6, full stop. THE most underrated Glee song ever. I will not accept criticism towards this opinion.

[daisyishedwig]

Glee tag game

I was tagged by @annepi-blog, thank you!

1. Favourite season 1 episode: Okay, so the obvious answer is Laryngitis because it's one of the absolutely best Kurt episodes in the whole show. But I also fucking hate everything about Rachel's storyline but Rose's Turn alone does kind of give it the leg up to still be the best episode anyway.

2. Favourite season 2 episode: Oh I've got so many contenders for this one. I love Furt and the relationships we get to see between Burt and Kurt and Kurt and Finn. But then Never Been Kissed is just a classic with it being Blaine's first episode and Chris' acting in it is just so so incredible. Blame It On The Alcohol would be a higher contender because I love drunk Blaine and I actually really enjoy Finn in that episode, which isn't something that happens a lot for me until season 4, but the writer's biphobia that they push onto Kurt really ruins it. But I think the actual winner would have to be Prom Queen. I love Kurt in that episode and I love it being the first time we start to see that Blaine's not perfect, that he's a little broken, a little fragile. It's underutilized, but it really sets up so much of what makes Blaine my favorite character to write.

3. Favourite season 3 episode: Okay, we all know it's Michael. Like of course The First Time, On My Way, and Dance With Somebody are all great episodes that I really love. But Michael is the episode I rewatch the most. And part of my love for it is, a) the cut Want You Back scene, and b) believing Seblaine to be genuine, very close friends which makes the slushee incident so much more heart-wrenching. But it's still such a good episode, especially for me with my deep love of angst and Sebastian Smythe, it's really just the best episode in general. Plus it has the added bonus of having the one and only Samcedes duet so, yeah, it's the best.

4. Favourite season 4 episode: Diva and Feud are both a lot of fun, even if a lot of what happens in them is really ridiculous. Guilty Pleasures is such a good Blam episode. And I love I Do for the flirty and thirsty sides of Klaine we get to see. But I do feel like, once again, the angst lover in me has to go with The Breakup. The Scientist and Don't Speak are two of my favorite songs on the whole show. Everyone's acting in that episode is just so so good. Darren and Chris just knock it out of the park in every single scene, and I will never cease to be awed by them.

5. Favourite season 5 episode: I would probably say Tested, because I always love an episode where Blaine gets to cry. And I love Elliot and everything that he does for Klaine in getting them to communicate. And I love getting to truly see Blaine acknowledge his self-worth issues instead of them just constantly being buried and locked away. A lot of the episode is weird and difficult to watch but the conversation that Klaine have at the end will always be one of my favorite Klaine scenes. Other contenders were Bash, because I love Kurt in that episode and once again we get angsty Blaine. And then New York New York because its when we first get to see Klaine actively working to fix the problems in their relationship instead of clinging to the past so tightly that they crush it entirely.

6. Favourite season 6 episode: God, this one is hard because I'm honestly not sure there's any episode that I truly love. Like The Hurt Lockers are iconic, and I love Chris' acting in 2009. But so much of that season is just weird and almost pointless that I'm not sure I have an episode I like enough to consider my favorite.

7. Episode that makes me cry: I haven't rewatched The Quarterback since it aired because of how much it makes me cry. Tested and The Breakup also both hurt a lot.

8. Episode that makes me laugh: The Hurt Lockers for sure

9. Favourite tribute episode: Michael obviously. It's probably my favorite episode of the whole show in general and the songs are so well done.

10. Favourite Christmas episode: Ooof, I love them all for different reasons, but there's just something about Blaine going to New York with Burt to comfort Kurt that will always get to me so it's gotta be Glee, Actually.

11. Episode with the best songs: Ooooh, probably the mashup episodes? I'm not sure I can pick one but it would be a tie between Never Been Kissed and Mash Off.

12. Favourite sectionals episode: Oh, I'm torn between Special Education and Hold On To Sixteen. I love Quinn and Sam getting a duet, and I love Valerie, and I love Mercedes and Tina getting to sing Dog Days Are Over (maybe I just love the lack of Rachel solos, lol). But I do love the set list in Hold On To Sixteen, I love Quinn singing Control, I love Kurt and Tina and Mike all getting solo parts in ABC. And of course The Troubletones are just so good.

13. Favourite regionals episode: I've gotta say On My Way even if it's largely just for Glad You Came and Cough Syrup. The actual competition doesn't matter much to me, but the Karofsky storyline was handled really well and I love Sebastian's apology to Blaine and the New Directions, and it's just good in general.

14. Favourite nationals episode: I really love the set list for Nationals in season 3, but I hate Rachel and so much of that episode is all about Rachel and her choking at her NYADA audition and somehow convincing Carmen Tibideux to come see her anyway. But on the other hand while I don't love the City of Angels set list for nationals as much, I do love the fact that they were all Finn's (and Cory's) favorite songs. And I love Burt and Carole being there. And I love Throat Explosion (or at least John Baptiste) actually being very kind and respectful of Finn's passing. I like that they didn't just lean hard into the show choir rivalry there and let them actually be humans who recognize the pain of the McKinley team. Also Throat Explosion's set was really good too.

15. Episode most people like but I don’t: I might get killed by my Klaine friends. But Love, Love, Love? At the time it aired I was super excited about the proposal, but now as an adult, I really wish it hadn't happened, especially not like that. Like I get that it's romantic in that big grand gesture that Kurt deserves and Blaine would always want to give him. But. They hadn't talked about it! While Kurt guessed it was coming on the drive, it still didn't leave him with anyway to actually pull Blaine aside and talk about it. And with multiple other show choirs there, including Sebastian, can you really expect Kurt to be able to say anything but yes? Like I would have loved for them to have a quiet, personal proposal. To have Blaine ask and have them talk about it and whether or not they're ready for that. And then they could do the big thing. But instead we got Kurt not being given a chance to think about if this is something he actually wants, and it leads to a lot of problems in the future for them.

16. Episode most people dislike but I like: Probably Old Dog, New Tricks. Like it's a weird episode, admittedly. But we get some of my favorite things in it. We get Blaine being a sweet and supportive partner, we get Klaine being a team, we get Kurt calling Rachel out on how selfish she is, we get puppies, and we get Peter Pan. It's great. I have fun with that episode.

and now that I have finally finished that, I'm going to tag @esilher, @calsvoid, @lusthurts, @backslashdelta, and @cryscendo

I re-read the fic ‘Dalton’ by CP Coulter every year, usually starting in November-December. I just finished up and I’m dyyinngggg for an update. An update I’ve been wanting for a decade.

I had a literal aneurism when CP Coulter started posting again on Tumblr, promising to update. I hadn’t been on tumblr in yeaarrssssss and I just so happened to check in on her page one day and had a meltdown! It’s been quiet for almost two years now, but I’m still hoping and waiting for her return. <3

So here’s just a small piece that I was dying to write because Reed and Shane are my all time favorite pairing of ALL TIME! So this is another version of Kurt trying to help Reed figure it out.

_____________

The bristles of the paint brush slid across the canvas, lopping at the end, leaving behind a dark, delicate curl of hair. The artist pulled his brush back, scrutinizing his work. His lips pursed and his brows scrunched as he gazed at the piece of artwork, searching for what was missing. To anyone else, this picture would have looked complete, but to Reed Van Kamp, it was not. Because, well…

He could never finish.

He let out a frustrated breath, pushing his supplies away and crossing his arms. “Having a moment?” He could hear the amusement in his roommates voice.

“Please, Kurt, I’m already struggling.” His strawberry curls fell around his porcelain, freckled face as he dropped his head, shaking it slightly. “Why can’t I stop?”

“Stop what?” Kurt asked. “Stop painting him? Or stop failing to paint him?”

“Stop thinking about him.” Reed whispered. Kurt tried to suppress a smile, failing only slightly. “I don’t know what’s happening to me.”

“You’re falling in love, I think.” The countertenor answered from where he was proofreading an essay for the 10th time. Professor Murdoch would never be able to fail this one.

“Kurt, don’t say things like that!” Reed flailed so hard, he almost sent himself off the edge of the stool he sat upon. “I don’t even think I’m…gay. Or at least, I’ve never thought about it!”

Kurt let out a breath through his nose, noting his place in the essay and pushing his chair back from the desk. He strutted over to Reed, grabbing his wrist and yanking him to the artist’s plush white bed. Reed stumbled on the way, falling onto the bed with an “oof.”

“Reed,” Kurt gave him a stern look as he pulled him upright. “Have you ever actually thought about anything? Like being straight, I mean,” the diva clarified. “Have you ever been attracted to a girl?” Reed was silent for several seconds. Kurt waited patiently, knowing the answer.

“Well…not exactly, I guess?” The small artist finally relented. “I’ve grown up watching the most gorgeous women strut down runways and model for magazines, and I’ve always been able to acknowledge that, of course. But, I guess I’ve never thought anything other than that. That they look good in the designer clothes.” He sighed and fell backwards on the bed, his legs hanging over the edge. “It’s just…scary. I’ve never had someone so openly…taken with me?”

Kurt snorted. “‘Taken’ is the understatement of the century. Shane literally worships the ground you walk on. When you’re within a mile of him, his eyes never leave your direction.” He patted Reed on the knee. “I know it’s confusing and stressful for you, Reed, trust me, I do. But no one is expecting or forcing you to make any decisions. Even Shane. He may be hoping and praying and pleading to the heavens, but he would never pressure you into an answer or reciprocation. Time is all yours, my fellow fashionista.” He glanced over at his best friend, who had his face hidden behind the arm draped over his head. “I do think, however, that you should seriously consider trying to figure it out soon, though. I can see how much this is bothering you. We will all love and support whichever decision you make. Do you want me to ask Blaine to have Shane back off?”

A small spasm caused the bed to shake slightly. “I’ll take that as a ‘no?’” Kurt smirked, enjoying the color making its way to Reed’s face. “Okay, let’s get real here. Do you think he’s cute?”

“Kurt-“ Reed groaned, pulling his arm from his face and glaring at the ceiling.

“Answer the question, Reed. Stop being such a drama queen.”

“…” Kurt could hear Reed grumble a quiet response.

“Reed! Sit up and answer me right now, or I’ll take the tweedles’ zombie apocalypse baseball bat to your brand new art supplies!” Reed shot straight up, staring wide eyed at Kurt.

“…you wouldn’t.” He narrowed his eyes suspiciously. His roommate just raised a delicate eyebrow at him, poker face strong.

“Would you like to test that theory?” Reed wasn’t sure that he did. He saw Kurt destroy Tabitha without even breaking a sweat. “Now, do you, Reed Van Kamp, think that Shane Anderson is cute?”

Absentmindedly, Reed was tinkering with the ring that hung around his neck as he glanced over to the abandoned painting. His eyes traced over the perfect details of the subject’s face. Every laughter line and every smooth curl of his brunette hair. He lingered on the swirls of green in the eyes that he had memorized and he almost smiled. “He’s beautiful.”

Kurt’s eyebrows shot up. “Like runway model beautiful? Or like you’re falling in love beautiful?” Read glared at him, but he was failing at fighting the grin that began to grace his face. “Noted.” Kurt laughed. “So, what does anything else matter, then? You don’t need to label yourself, Reed. If you’re not completely comfortable with shouting it from the rooftops, then don’t. But if you like him, and he makes you happy when he’s around, then isn’t that enough? It would be enough for him. And you know as well as I do that everyone here would be more than happy for you.”

Reed shook his head with a laugh, eyes misty. “I do know that, of course. I don’t know why I’ve been so worried.” He threw his arms around Kurt, who yelped in surprise, but hugged him back, patting his messy hair. “Thank you, Kurt. You always know what to say.”

Kurt chuckled as Reed pulled away, and he held onto the shorter boy’s shoulder. “I just want you to be happy. I can see that, even though you get jumpy around him, you do enjoy his company. I just hope you can “diva up” soon and claim it.” The ‘Alice’ of Windsor winked at him. The ‘Dormouse’ just pushed him slightly away with an eye roll accompanied by a smile.

“Don’t hold your breath,” Reed sighed, eyes still a little prickled from the conversation. He stood and brushed his hands over his wrinkled clothes. Yanking his sleeves up, he made his way back over to the canvas, only tripping slightly on the way. Planting back down onto the stool, he picked up a clean brush, dipping it into one of the colors on his palette. Kurt considered him for a moment, but decided to just let him be for now to sort through his thoughts. The countertenor walked back over to his desk, starting back where he left off on his paper.

It could not have been more than 20 minutes before Kurt heard the clatter of a brush hitting the ground. He cringed at the image of spilled paint, but the concerned thought left him the moment he saw Reed’s face.

The strawberry blonde boy sat, paint streaked down his clothes from where the brush fell, staring in amazement at his artwork.

His finished artwork.

“I…I did it.” As Shane’s lovestruck expression stared back at him from the canvas, the expression he always wore when looking at Reed, the smile that took over the artist’s face was small and intimate, and a single tear finally escaped his eyes.

Name five scenes that show off Blaine’s best qualities?

sorry for taking a couple days to respond I knew I'd really have to sit and think this one out!

the first scene that comes to mind is when finn basically baits him into thinking he's going to get a solo but is actually talking about rory. while like 90% of the other glee characters would yell at him, storm out, or slap somebody, he just says it's a great idea and rory will do a great job. I think it's something people get wrong about his character all the time, that because he sings a lot he's a diva the likes of rachel. I know anderberry is popular but I think they're more disimilar than people think. rachel throws a fit when things don't go her way. the kick to blaine's character is whether he gets something good or not he doesn't mind. I think it's a really endearing quality. he loves singing, and does it whenever he gets the chance, but he also is so positive about sharing the spotlight in a way that's sort of rare on the show. another example to this point is that he was willing to not audition for tony for kurt, or that he always is featured in group numbers or a duet in competitions after joining NDs.

which reminds me of the whole thing in season five where tina offers him a solo for nationals because everyone agreed he deserves it for working hard, and then like two episodes later when he got valedictorian they're mad he got a solo because he gets 'handed things' but they were the ones who handed him this thing. and then he doesn't perform a solo at nationals and does a duet with tina, who was the one mad at him also. what. anyways. back to the question at hand LOL

secondly we always have to acknowledge the scene at the end of prom queen. i think it's a really beautiful moment of character growth. blaine in season two is clearly someone who went through some things and is very afraid because of this, and we get this very special moment where he faces his fears for kurt. to me it shows his heart. he loves sooo big

a third thing i really like is blaine standing up for jane in season six. at first he's a little thrown off by the whole thing but he ends up being fully behind her and i think it shows a good quality that even after the vote when she maybe doesn't even want to be in the group anymore he threatens to quit. just wants to make things right either way!!

fourthly can i just say a lot of his relationship with sam? in general i think the way he handles having a crush on him shows this quality he has in sort of putting those he cares about before himself (not always so much to the healthiest degree.. but he's sweet). he really wants to make people happy. i think for the last scene i can point out this in a lot of his friendships but i think i'll refer to my favorite: tina. particularly when he's concerned about her in the season five premiere so he schemes to make the guys take her to prom. that's his best friend who is so mean and he just wants to help her. anyways this has been long and gone a little all over the place but here you go.

[daltonblaine]

Can you give a run down of Blaine’s relationships with the original six girls, and season 4 new girls. Rank importance to him?

i giggled a little at first because. Rank Women BUT this was actually really fun to think about !!

tina #1 OBVIOUSLY. "you are the most important person to me at this school right now" + "i know i can't possibly leave here without having at least one slow dance with you" + all those shots of blaine hugging tina or them holding hands/linking arms in the hallway are so !!! blaine joining the cheerios with her, hanging out with her & sam as a #Trio, comforting her when she cries, supporting her status as prom queen (though he did admit he fell asleep texting her about her prom dress 😭), singing a duet with her at nationals, poking fun at her for mistakenly being into gay guys lightheartedly ^_^ also tina is SO ride or die for blaine. she's the only one who voted blaine in the blaine vs sue feud duet off !! she's the only one blaine told about his crush on sam !!! they went to sadie hawkins together !!!!!! they have super cringe nicknames for each other (blainey days bling bling tay tay queen t) !!!!!!!!! but they can also be super snarky with each other LOL like blaine saying "thanks tina" + tina going full diva on an (oblivious) blaine <33

santana... this might be my bias talking but i imagine they're somewhat tight... "it's not unusual" is amazing performance fodder (though rip purple piano 💔), but also santana stepped up for him (and kurt) against karofsky in night of neglect, and she was willing to risk everything in getting revenge on behalf on blaine in michael (they spend a sizable number of scenes together in that ep)... also they have that fun dynamic where santana makes little disgusted faces at certain things blaine does in performances ("love doesn't come in a minute" + santana's shocked face during the dance breakdown of "hungry like the wolf / rio" + blaine rapping in "perfect" + santana giving kurt an offended look during "it's not right but it's okay") also they walked down the wedding aisle together 🏳️‍🌈

rachel comes next i SUPPOSE but i always kind of got an impression they were more coworkers than friends even during high school 😭 they had a shocking number of duets for a duo that hardly seemed to relate to each other otherwise but they DID get drunk together & kissed in biota and also starred in west side story as leads... rachel is definitely closer to kurt (e.g. she "sided" with kurt during the dance with somebody ep + hummelberry were actually college roomies) but it does seem like blaine & rachel coordinated some nyada assignments together, also blaine cheered her up in s6 when she was in her flop era !! doesn't seem like she kept too close contact with him after he & kurt broke up though because she didn't know about blaine and karofsky dating when she spoke with kurt later on

MERCEDES AND BLAINE WERE ROOMMATES. so much lost potential there like they could've been Peak "this is my boyfriend sam and this is his boyfriend blaine" energy... that one scene where mercedes walks in on a million lit candles in the apartment and immediately goes like "BLAINE?" but blaine was literally guiltless in that endeavor... also mercedes invited to the bachelor chalet ❤️

brittany - weirdly hostile and friendly with blaine at the same time. they were hanging out during lunch together and blaine asks how santana is?? they also performed "shout" and couple other fun numbers together & she kissed him on the cheek during "heroes"... they also made out in a made-up glee script (WHY 😭). blaine & artie arranged & choreographed ULTIMATE CAMP "boys/boyfriend" to cheer brittany up !! brittany banned hair gel from prom and then made fun of blaine's hair?? also asked if blaine was born in america during the s4 elections arc 💀 anderpierce going head to head as president candidates during elections would've been interesting but she was paralleled to sam instead... although i DO have to thank her for giving us the blaine & sam pres/vp duo ^_^

kitty & artie had apparently invited blaine to go out bumper bowling with them but he declined because he didn't want to be a third wheel (sam voice Fifth wheel). when tina pokes fun at blaine's very obvious feelings about sam during "against all odds" kitty smacks her on the arm and says "shut it" LOLL there's a lot of snark between her and blaine, with comments from kitty like "SOMEONE'S manstruating" or "no one reads show choir blogs, just you blaine" or blaine saying in his time capsule "kitty, who’s kind of a bitch but we kind of love her" ?? also anderwilde appearing as the dirty dancing + twist duo in the pro-twerking presentation 😭

the marley and blaine "i may have a juicebox" anderson relationship is a little scant, but seems friendly !! that one time mr. shue kept shutting the glee clubbers down when marley wanted to suggest one of her original songs for regionals, blaine put together a meeting and they tried out her songs ("all or nothing" blaine & marley duet ^_^) also that one scene where marley's like "we should light up sparklers INDOORS" blaine's like 😕🥰 about it in response LOL also there's this little moment in "chasing pavements" where blaine guides marley to the center of the stage when she was singing in the wings <3 and a shot in "diva" where marley's trying to fix his hair and blaine acts all diva-like. crumbs truly

unique & blaine have that fun little rapport going where she talks about her fake boobs LOLL like there's that scene and there's also the scene where she's like "you might need some woman parts to help you sell that" to him and hands him padding right out of her shirt 😭 also that OUTRAGEOUS scene where unique's like "say i'm a girl" and ryder is kind of just squirming standing there. but blaine turns to ryder with eyebrows raised like slay king

sorry quinn, i can't remember anything beyond that one time blaine said "looking good fabray" as he passed her in the hallways after she donned the cheerio uniform in s3

the ranking itself is a little fuzzy by the end just because like. it really is all crumbs LOL blaine canonically has maybe 3 friends and he married one of them but i can STILL DREAM...

[jovenshires]

I know you’re on a break but after that last incorrect quotes I would love it if you could give your thoughts on which glee characters everyone else would get, cuz you were so right with Sam for Spencer

My thoughts are; Blaine for Angela, Quinn for Courtney, Brittany for Olivia, Sebastian for Tommy, Santana for Chanse, and Marley for Kimmy

DLNAFLKNFKLNFKLNRKL this is so funny bc i debated on who to make him for forever and i was worried that sam was my fave so i was just being biased but im glad it went over well xxx i did check in with my bestie before drafting it and she confirmed sam made most sense.

hmmmm excellent q!! i am putting all these thoughts under the cut just so im not raw glee posting on the dash LNSDKNFKLN

this was. SO MUCH harder than i thought it was gonna be okay LKNDNAKFNKL this may be nonsensical and for some of them i simply don't give a concrete answer bc ykw. idk!

olivia is SOOOOO brittany-coded oh my GOD. marley for kimmy just smacked me in the face with how real that is. and quinn-courtney......... yEAH you're so correct. i gotta text my bestie shes gonna freak. her favorite Blonde Girlies. i do love all of these though!! i might personally make some tweaks but i TOTALLY see where you're coming from on all of them

i do like chanse as santana.... but i might switch arasha to santana instead?? just makes sense for the queen of lies imo. the medical examiner feels so santana-coded especially. might shift chanse to kurt bc he can also be a bitch but he's so much more ambitious than that. although it's a Tough call bc i feel like chanse fits both BUT who else would arasha be...

on blaine (and im talking seasons 2-3 blaine bc thats my baby and they cant take him away from me) i do like angela but i am caught between her and damien. it's the Most theater-kid energy of all the glee characters and they are the Most theater-kid energy of all the smosh members. yeah im not 100p sure what Else to do with either of them so that's just a sub note. unsure on that one !

anyway additional thoughts: jackie might be tina-coded?? hopeless romantic, extremely emotional, low-key diva when she wants to be, incredibly talented and they didn't deserve her. again im talking 1-3 tina. they hated her after that for some fucking reason. and on that note shayne is mike im taking no questions at this time. level-headed, smart, not a singer, just here to be a lil guy. yeah.

i think im gonna go with amanda as rachel. lovingly. SO lovingly. all the silliest rachel moments. i could see a couple different people as her (i think angela is also good here but she's too okay with being wrong/the butt of the joke, and then i think my second choice is tommy) but yeah i think amanda is my top pick. and then i might be so controversial as to say ian is finn-coded. just some guy. team leader. everyone's dad. just seems like he would have things to say about grilled cheesus. and anthony is jesse st. james. goodbye. that's all. these three are THE love triangle moment.

kiana is mercedes. why? because i said so. above it all, incredibly talented but underrated. (also im not thinking too hard ab the relationship implications but that does make the samcedes dynamic SO fucking funny.) and keith is artie. it's the 'wheres my hug at' guy of it all. its okay i like artie im allowed to bully him and i Love keith so

i do like sebastian for tommy and ya know what. im tempted to agree and leave it there bc i feel like thats as kind to him as i can possibly be KLNFFKLN but i struggled with placing him anywhere else... he could be rachel i think (and then amanda would move the whole paradigm. i would make her sue for funsies.) but i think that's All i can see him as. and then trevor is. rory. bc i have a hyperfixation on rory and trevor Is the rory in my head. so there.

aaaaand garrett IS mr. schuester. that's all goodbye

[gleefulpoppet]

For the @gleedrabbleblog week 16 prompt: recording (rated teen) --- “Babe?” 

Kurt scrambles in bed to appear like he’s not doing what he’s doing. “You’re home early!” It’s breathless, and he fumbles to silence his phone.

“You okay?” 

“Yeah. Uhm. Hi.”

Blaine grins, seeing Kurt blush and the state he’s in. “Hi, to you, too. Exactly what were you up to?” 

“Nothing! I was just—”

“Mhmm. I see. And would this ‘nothing’ have anything to do with that ‘Diva’ video you found of me last night?”

“No!”

“Lucky me that I came home early. We can finish that if you want.”

“Oh, god. That outfit…”

“I know.” He kisses him.
