Here’s some relieved Blake with my hypothetical design for V9!
Hello @daisychaindemon ! You were one of the first people to ever interact with my posts and that was a huge deal for me! Thank you!
Kurt’s faces of “why am I friends with these people” “Blaine? Blaine don’t you-”
Why am I attracted exclusively to himbos?
new blog theme to go with the header @drowsywithnochaperone made me ♡♡ tried to pick something with some dreamy colors to fit the theme. also i dont think ive ever had a mercedes icon and thats a damn shame
I’m rewatching early season 1 and gosh. I love the plot lines and the focus on the kids in the rest of the seasons, really I do. But there’s something beautiful in the uncomplicatedness of the first 13? Not many of them get a focus because of how much we follow Schue’s story and that somewhat makes me like the kids better? Like glee really mostly focused on characters or relationships if they were going to be mean or there was going to be drama. But with so much drama being taken up by the Ken/Emma/Will/Terri and babygate plots the rest of the characters live out of background moments. And it’s truly a testament to these actors how well they craft these kids with the little time they have. All these little moments and friendships and callbacks just make me feel warm because it feels real. With how dramatic all the kids are from sectionals on out (and yes they are dramatic in the first 13, but in like a teenagers way) a lot of them being kids is lost? Watching throwdown and sectionals and just seeing all the interaction and ways the casts’ bond came through? Gosh as much as we all rag on the first 13 there’s a reason people came back for more. And it was these actors doing so much with so little in such amazing ways.

I love how much dancing Tina and Kurt and Mercedes get to do in season 1. Especially because later they’re all made fun of and insulted for their lack of skill, or called lazy.
I mean like Kurt had his little Single Ladies video that Tina was also involved in. And Tina was working on her own dance number during Dream On. And Mercedes got to dance some during Bust Your Windows, as well as be part of the flash mob with Kurt and Tina during Safety Dance
And who were they dancing with?? Umm, Brittany, Mike, Matt, etc. The ones we’re told are the best dancers on the show. And they all manage to keep pace with them. And I know it’s not the same for Mercedes cause both hers were fantasy sequences but still. Sure the dances were nothing close to, say, winning first place in a big televised dance competition or anything, but they knew she had moves. I mean they wrote her into these numbers and she wasn’t standing still
But nah it was easier to make fun of Kurt’s common moves and say Tina could barely pick up the most generic dances and give Mercedes nothing to do and then call her lazy (: Anyway if anyone ever wonders why season 1 is my fave season then one reason is because my fave characters weren’t being treated like pure horseshit yet. Those things are very related
Also semi unrelated and I’m not like trying to shit on Naya or anything but the way they told us Santana was one of the best dancers was the same way they told us Finn was the best male vocalist in the group lmao. Like girl where were you during Bust Your Windows huh?? I swear I saw some gifset of the scene where Santana makes fun of Kurt’s three signature moves but instead it’s just Santana’s three signature moves of like. Waving her arms over her head, doing her weird little arm pump thing, and slapping her own ass lmao. But nah I mean she’s good but not like Mike and Brittany good
I need an AU where the TroubleTones win and we get Tina and Quinn and Kurt go to the trouble tones because everyone else is too proud or has other outside issues and Rachel is there until she tries to take over and I need this

We need a little christmas always makes me kinda cringe. And I love Chris’s voice so much but the like really high short speak-sing lines he has come off as really sharp? Idk I like most of their Christmas stuff and I’ll still listen to the song I just kinda only like it for the boppiness
I had to go back and listen to this one -- it sounds like the entire song was sped up to make it sound more childlike, which is... weird. And you’re right, Chris is straining again. Eesh. It’s not good. C- at best.
HOWEVER YOU REMINDED ME OF THE SONG THAT I WILL THROW THINGS AT THE TV IF I HAVE TO EVER LISTEN TO IT AGAIN AND THAT IS.... THE CHIPMONK SONG.
Good god, I hate that song.
Apparently, other people don’t mind it. I don’t know, lol.
But back to your thoughts -- it leads a longer conversation about Chris’s voice -- and how sometimes, a high song he can just soar on, and other times, when it’s in that awkward middle range of your voice, he can seem like he’s straining a bit. The thing, though, that people don’t seem to talk about is that Chris’s voice did drop during the show, and his gorgeous lower register wasn’t used as often as I would have liked it. But also, sometimes I don’t think they knew how best to use Chris’s voice when in group numbers.
