I Don't Have The Fashion Vocabulary For This.

I'm sorry for not being very nice about Puck/Kurt in my last entry! I feel bizarrely guilty about it. I considered writing a Puck/Kurt ficlet by way of apology, but quickly realised that I couldn't write Kurt. Or Puck. Or in a style compatible with the tone of Glee. Whoops.

It's a slightly less fitting apology (although not entirely inappropriate, as I have been generally unfair to Puck), but here is a picture of Puck with a Staraptor. I don't know a great deal about Staraptor, but what I do know is this: if Pokémon existed, Noah Puckerman would own the one with a mohawk.




Seriously, I'm really sorry for being a prat. I can usually coexist quite happily with popular pairings I don't 'ship (Squall/Seifer, Sam/Dean, Ed/Roy); I don't know what happened. You guys have definitely helped me understand the appeal of Puck/Kurt, though, even if I'm not quite 'shipping it yet.


I watched Eclipse last night, to my embarrassment. Charlie is still my favourite character. Roselia NO THAT'S A POKÉMON Rosalie made me think of Quinn, for some reason, and from there it was a short step to picturing Bella as Rachel, Edward as Finn, Emmett as Puck, Jacob as Jesse, Alice as Kurt, Carlisle as Will and Esme as Emma. The film was improved enormously.

Spoilers for Eclipse below; highlight to read:

My favourite point was the one at which Bella asked Jacob to kiss her and a member of the audience loudly exclaimed 'WHAT?'

I'm looking forward immensely to Breaking Dawn, because I have heard such screwed-up things about the book. You will be saying 'WHAT?' many more times, favourite audience member!

When Bella finally agreed to marry that assless freak Edward, incidentally, a small corner of the audience squealed and the rest of the audience cracked up laughing at them. I was generally amused by the fact that the audience frequently laughed at inappropriate moments. I wonder what the ratio of genuine Twilight fans to people who just found Twilight hilarious was.

I'm A Winner And You're Fat.

I have now finished the first series of Glee!


( Spoilers for 'Funk'. )

I lost some respect for Mr Schuester in 'Funk', but what the episode did help me realise was just how much I'd misjudged Puck. Despite his faults, he is a sincere member of the club, and if one of their own gets hurt he'll step in. (He may not always step in in the best way, but I don't hold him to the same behavourial standards as I do Mr Schuester, because Puck isn't in a position of responsibility.) I've had trouble getting past notions of Puck I actually formed from seeing mentions of him on Livejournal before watching Glee; as fannish osmosis also led me to believe that Sue Sylvester would be a hero and Emma a villain, you'd have thought I'd have learnt not to trust my preconceptions, but apparently not. Now that I'm starting to see Puck as the character he is, rather than the character I thought he was, I like him a lot more.

Actually, come to think of it, I think Puck may have been the character in 'Theatricality' who said 'can you fight all of us?' when the entire club came to defend Kurt. He's not the person he was at the beginning of the series, and I really haven't given him credit for that. It's just a shame that Glee has allowed his improvement to happen offscreen, rather than exploring it, because I think it would have been great to have had an episode or two in which we could see Puck's attitude changing.


(I don't think the below is really spoilery, but if you don't want to know minor details about the first-season finale I'd suggest you look away.)

All I really have to say about 'Journey' is 'did I write that final scene and then forget about it?'

Seriously. Ukulele. Kurt, Quinn and Mercedes all being adorable with each other. It was a scene made specifically for me. I love the Kurt/Mercedes and Mercedes/Quinn friendships and have been lamenting the fact that Kurt and Quinn don't really interact beyond frequently being paired up in dances, and all of a sudden three-way adorability. With my three favourite characters! Backed by ukulele music! Because the writers love me!

Kurt/Mercedes/Quinn is totally my nonsexual OT3 for Glee. I want them all to form a big cuddly pile and paint each other's nails. This should be the entire plot of the second season.
