i temporarily fall in love with like any guy thats nice to me at all like the checkout guy at CVS told me to “stay dry” this morning bc it was raining and i thought about him for like 2 hours after that
I already miss swimming, and summer just ended. Count me in, Blaine! We need to catch up anyway; it's been too long. Thank you for the swimsuit rule. I don't really want to go blind this young.
we've got to make the most of this sunny weather while it lasts, right? i don't mind that classes have started again, but i'm definitely going to miss the summer weather. and yes, it has been way too long! i can't wait to hear all about your summer. and no problem at all. i wouldn't put it past some people to start skinny-dipping after a few drinks, so i just wanted to set that rule ahead of time to avoid the chaos. not in my pool, please.
Thanks, Blaine. I agree. That always felt kind of high school to me, like it was more about showing off than personal growth. I personally am still the same Brody. How about you? How was your summer? I saw your post about the pool party by the way, and that sounds fun. At least with you setting it up, I know it's out of good intentions. If I came, want me to bring some snacks or something?
exactly! and doesn't that completely defeat the purpose? i'm glad to hear you're still the same brody, because i honestly don't think there's anything you need to change. my summer was pretty amazing, thanks for asking!. i spent most of it in the philippines for my cousin's wedding, but i also got to explore a lot, and it was absolutely incredible there. how was yours, besides you still being the same old brody? please come! i'd love to have you there, and i promise that the second someone tries to pull a prank or anything, they will be kicked out immediately. it would be great if you could bring some snacks! thanks, brody. i hope to see you there!
PUCK: lowkey disappointing ngl but ok
PUCK: you got it
PUCK: it's been way to long since i've given an ass whooping
PUCK: aced? she'd probably just think i cheated
PUCK: but maybe she'd be happy with passing
PUCK: idk, that's for her to figure out
PUCK: you know they make candy underwear? i saw it at spencer's at the mall
BLAINE: well, that's why they invented punching bags.
BLAINE: okay, fine, maybe aced was a bit much. passing sounds doable right? and i'm sure that would make her happy.
BLAINE: i've always had mixed feelings about that candy underwear.
BLAINE: like... the idea of it is pretty hot, but why are they always made out of hard candy? the ones i've seen, at least. are you just going to sit there and chew away while the other person's waiting?
BLAINE: not to mention the risk of it all. one wrong move and it's not candy that's getting bitten.
SEBASTIAN: depends on what family we're talking about.
SEBASTIAN: no, not the exact same one. i was thinking more like guidelines, rather than a copy and paste look.
SEBASTIAN: your mom has a hair brand? do you mean like an mlm thing, or an actual brand?
SEBASTIAN: see? look at that. just won another one. i'm unstoppable.
SEBASTIAN: good. happy to hear that.
SEBASTIAN: we're not so different, you and i.
BLAINE: sebastian. you know what i mean. when you say 'bonding activity', i can't help but have my suspicions.
BLAINE: thank god. how exactly would that work, though? like... 'always use conditioner' or 'hey guys, this is pomade, your new best friend'?
BLAINE: oh no, it's definitely not an mlm. it's an established cosmetics brand with hair products, skincare and makeup. available at your local sephora.
BLAINE: amazing. it really is in your blood. best future lawyer in all of ohio ✨
BLAINE: maybe. when it comes to certain things.
That's really cool of you to put this together, Blaine. And especially that you want to include all of the show choirs from around. I think that speaks a lot to your character. I'd definitely love to drop by! If you need someone to man the grill, I volunteer. Or I can at least bring something.
thank you, stevie! i just figured we could all use a little bonding time. glad to hear you'll be there, and hopefully your siblings will be there to! i haven't done a whole lot of grilling in my life, so i'll definitely take you up on that offer.
Tina: Yes! I really like hanging out with you
Tina: Well no one in WM has forbidden me to hang out with the other schools, but you know, sometimes people get really crazy with the competitons.
Tina: But I don`t really care about that.
Tina: So see you at 16:00?
Blaine: and i like hanging out with you!
Blaine: i'm sorry to hear that. show choir can be a little intense sometimes, right? some of the warblers are like that too.
Blaine: sounds perfect! i'll see you then!
That sounds like an excellent idea, count me in, Blaine. Besides, who says we can’t all have fun together? It’s not like we all share Sue Sylvester’s mindset.
Oh, there’s going to be karaoke? I hope you’re ready to hear some good music — like Justin Bieber.
And hey, if you ever figure out why Mr. Schuester wants New Directions to cover every song from the ’80s, you’ve got to let me know.
exactly! i'm glad to hear you'll be there, sam! wait... remind me again who sue sylvester is? isn't she that creepy cheerleading coach from mckinley? i ran into her at the lima bean the other day and, well, let's just say she's an... interesting character.
absolutely! you can sing all the justin bieber you want, sam. and i'll make sure to share any and all stories i hear about mr. schuester with you. i promise!
idk dude, personally i'm trying to learn the least amount about this guy that i possibly can - there's only so much cringe i can take. i guess from a distance, though, i could see the interest. kind of like a nature documentary. ...or maybe a true crime one.
i knew i could count on you, dani! perfect. it would be amazing if you could just bring some snacks or drinks — whatever you like, surprise me!
honestly, i don't blame you. i think i'd do the same if he were my director. but for me, it's kind of like watching a car crash in slow motion, you know? i want to look away - because why do i care about these random cringy rumours about another team's glee club director? - but i just can't. or like bad reality tv, where i can feel my brain cells die but something tells me to keep watching (or reading, in this case). it always makes me feel relieved that we've only got the council to deal with. at least with them i don't have to worry that they'll suddenly start rapping.
That sounds great, Blaine! Of course I’m in. And honestly, I don’t see why we couldn’t be friends — rivalries should really stay on the stage, right? At the end of the day, we’re all here for the music.
Do you want me to bring anything? Snacks, drinks… just let me know.
Oh, and thank you for banning everything pre-2000. Seriously, if I have to listen to or sing Journey or any disco song outside of Glee Club one more time, I might lose it. I have no idea why Mr. Schue is so obsessed with that era.
It’s not like I don’t respect the legends, but I think we’ve all had enough of the ’70s and ’80s to last a lifetime. A little fresh air wouldn’t hurt, right?
exactly! i couldn't have said it better myself, and i'm so glad you'll be there, tina. it wouldn't be the same without you!
if you could bring snacks or drinks, that would be very much appreciated! and i'm so sorry, but i'm actually banning anything post-2000, just to make sure people don't get caught up in show choir drama when this is supposed to be a party to bring us all closer together. and while at least half of my spotify wrapped consists of 70s, 80s, 90s and 00s songs, i can definitely see how frustrating it must be to have a director who keeps forcing you to sing classics from those eras. not that i always agree with our council, but at least they know how to keep things balanced, and they're usually willing to listen if i have suggestions. i promise i'll make sure not to sing any journey at the party, though!
Sam: Blond Thor totally it was his best look,
Sam: Not really, but I don`t think I can managed that color without dyeing it.
Sam: Wanna help find the right tone?
Blaine: i agree!
Blaine: and yes, of course. i'd be happy to help! are you free tomorrow?
Blaine: we could also hang out while you dye it. it might be useful to have someone there to check the back of your hair for you, just in case you missed a spot.
Marina: That sounds like you repaying me, which defeats the purpose. But I'm not going to say no to splitting sweet treats with you. You know the way to my heart.
Marina: On my way. Get your shoes on, Mister.
Marina: Silently judging? I think at that point in out lives, we'll be beyond caring what anyone else think. Might have to say it to their faces just to proce a point.
Marina: Oh, of course! Nothing makes me happier than a Blaine Anderson anecdote. It's my favourite past time, you know that.
Blaine: you need it, though. and i'm happy to do it!
Blaine: one step ahead of you! already got them on, miss alvarez. i'm sitting here anxiously waiting for you arrival.
Blaine: i sure hope so, but knowing myself? i'm not sure if i'm ever going to get to that point. i will of course have your back anytime you decide to tell people exactly what you think of them, though.
Blaine: and i will of course beg you to tell me one of your crazy vocal adrenaline stories. i'm sure you'll have lots of them.
Your parents either have a lot of faith in you, or they're falling for only child syndrome. They don't know any better so they're assuming the best. Although, I know you... kind of and if our dances classes are anything to go off, you're a good guy. I guess leaving you alone isn't entirely unreadable. That blazer does make you look entirely too innocent. You won't be wearing it at your party, will you? Trust me, the girls rendition of 'Walking On Sunshine / Halo' will go down in infamy. Think I was the only sober one there, and that's only because she had the sense not to dope up a pregnant girl.
Maybe you're a Saint in Warblers clothing. You'll be the first party of the college year. Are you read for that? What can I say? I am a genius. More people should take my suggestions on board. I promise, just get some cheap beer, good snacks, then up the music and everything will be fine. No ones going to complain when you're giving them booze. My saviour. Just for that, I'll be cheering the loudest when you blow everyone way with your voice. There are so many stories to tell. Wish there was a button I could press so I could erase his entire rap persona. Who told him that was okay? You haven't seen it, have you? Consider yourself lucky.
Me and my fun self will definitely be there. Think the Warblers are going to enjoy the cross contamination of choir groups? That Vocal Adrenaline lot can be pretty vicious.
oh, i think it's a bit of both, honestly. i have an older brother who always took advantage of these kind of situations, but he wasn't exactly subtle or sneaky about it. so i've definitely learned what not to do, and how to not get caught. i think my mom might secretly be happy that i've finally got enough of a social life to actually host a party, as that wasn't exactly the case for most of high school, and my dad probably thinks i'm incapable of throwing anything more scandalous than a tea party. they've both always been really busy with work, so being left alone and in charge of the house has been pretty normal since i was a teenager. and apparently i haven’t thrown enough parties to lose their trust yet. no blazer at the party, though. i want people to see me as blaine, not blaine warbler. and that does sound like a pretty amazing mashup! thank god she drew the line somewhere, even though it should've happened long before that.
i hadn't even thought of it that way, to be honest, but now i'm definitely starting to feel the pressure. still, i’ve already made a list with all of those essentials, so i think i’ll be okay. thank you for the support, quinn. and hey, maybe i can convince you to sing something with me? oh my god, so he really raps? i've heard so many rumours on the show choir blogs but i never know which ones to believe. i haven't seen it, no, and i don't think i want to. no offense to mr schue.
some more than others, i think. and see, that's exactly why i decided to do this. i get that we're competitors but i do hope that this might bring us all a little closer together. friendly competition is way more fun. fingers crossed! i just hope they won't pull any pranks.
