i'm such a "no no, it's okay" person with tears in eyes

[blainetm]

BLAINE: yeah, you probably don't. i don't think i do either, actually. maybe if i straighten it, but that's definitely not going to happen. BLAINE: perfect. i'd like it to be one. [...] BLAINE: i mean, i'm fine either way. if you're leaning more towards something casual, that's okay! we can just go with the flow, see how it feels. no pressure! BLAINE: oh, i think you're definitely right about that! it's less about the spotlight and more about how competitive people can be, regardless of whether they're athletes or artists. BLAINE: it must have been pretty intense in those locker rooms, though. BLAINE: well, you look good in a jersey. why mess with a classic, right? BLAINE: oh, i have faith in you, spencer. i think you're nicer than you let on. it might be subtle, but i'm pretty good at reading between the lines. BLAINE: and i'm looking forward to this chill-maybe-a-date. either way, i think it's going to be a good night.

SPENCER: i don't think i even have enough hair to braid. SPENCER: yeah. this is a date. SPENCER: i mean SPENCER: you wanted it to be a date, right? SPENCER: doesn't have to be. we can just chill, idrc. SPENCER: guess so. SPENCER: tbh though, idk if it's just a performer thing. i've definitely dealt with some drama queens on the football teams i've been on. SPENCER: some people are just like that. SPENCER: yeah? i guess i'll have to wait and see. SPENCER: i'll probably just toss on a jersey again. i'm not really a costume dude. SPENCER: i'm sure i'll find something to give you a real compliment about at the bar. i'm not totally incapable of being nice.

BLAINE: you're the coolest mom!! BLAINE: you're going to be iconic ✨ BLAINE: oh my god BLAINE: shouldn't i have noticed if that was the case?? BLAINE: i can assure you that i did not use my body to have people kicked out, though

KITTY: i'm not a regular mom, i'm a cool mom. THANKS!! KITTY: maybe a member of the ensemble went crazy and started biting??????

[blainetm]

blaine: santana, that's so exciting! blaine: count me in!!! blaine: should i wear a disguise? i can wear a baseball cap. maybe a letterman jacket??

texts || santana&blaine

santana: i've got a hinge date tomorrow. wanna come with in case they're an axe murderer? @blainetm

[blainetm]

BLAINE: exactly! it should count if you ask me. BLAINE: i always hear my own voice in my head when i read, actually. sometimes even someone else's. BLAINE: and i'm not sure how santa claus feels about you touching him, to be honest. but you're right — you could, if you wanted to. technically speaking.

BRITTANY: it's probably fine, i mean, a book on audio is just a book for your ears. it's not more real just because you see it with your eyes. i mean, i can't touch santa claus (except at the mall) but i know he's real.

[blainetm]

BLAINE: i know, i know. but what matters is that they changed their mind! BLAINE: so am i!! and thank you, rachel! i'm so glad tina gets to be the janis to my damian. i'm so proud of her, and you! BLAINE: do you think there's anything i can do to help? it breaks my heart to see you guys like this.

RACHEL: THANK YOU!! RACHEL: honestly it is embarrassing for them to not have gotten it right the first time, but i respect that people can change and grow, so i hold no ill will for the casting team. RACHEL: i'm so excited! and you and tina as damian and janis is really perfect. RACHEL: i know tina hates me right now...and maybe forever, but i'm still really proud of her and happy for her.

what’s a fear you had when you were little that you grew out of?

you know how parents and grandparents would often say that if you make a silly face for too long, it would stick that way? my brother took that to the next level. he claimed that's how jim carrey got famous — he made a face and got stuck in the mask forever. i was too terrified to smile for my school picture a few days later.

BLAINE: i mean, i was kind of saving that for our second date. but i'm willing to make an exception, if you insist. i'm sure you'd look even hotter with braids. [...] BLAINE: i mean, this is a date, right? BLAINE: sounds fair. BLAINE: things do get a little dramatic around here sometimes, don't they? i guess that's what happens when you gather so many passionate and highly competitive performers under one roof. this is a performing arts school, after all. a little drama kind of comes with the territory, and the chaos is simply inevitable. BLAINE: well, maybe you'll get to see if you’re right come halloween. i haven't decided on a costume yet, so who knows... BLAINE: i figured it wasn't, but one can always hope. 'not an insult' is good enough for me. i can work with that.

SPENCER: oh? and here i thought we were going to braid each other's hair and share all our secrets. guess i was mistaken. SPENCER: nah, i think i am. but it's cool that you're not. SPENCER: idk. i don't really care either way, tbh. if you want to gossip, go for it. i'm not gonna report you or anything. SPENCER: i don't have the energy for that kind of thing either, but i lowkey admire the mess of it. the drama around here - the kind offstage, i mean, is so petty and stupid sometimes that it's kind of nice to have this mirror held up to everyone, showing them how stupid they all look. SPENCER: i bet you'd look hot in a little superman cosplay ngl. SPENCER: it wasn't, but you're welcome. SPENCER: tbf, it wasn't an insult either, i guess. just a suspicion i have.

[blainetm]

BLAINE: they are! i honestly have no idea why though. BLAINE: i mean, not that i'm aware of?? BLAINE: and speaking of mean girls - congratulations, mrs. george!!

💬 big ass bigger heart

KITTY: i hear people are dropping out of mean girls? are things that bad there? fuck. @blainetm

[blainetm]

you know what — i'm just going to take that as a yes. we'll save you a seat.

It's penciled in, but I'm fully expecting to bail if I get a better offer.

[blainetm]

you are being way too kind, miss frannie. thank you. and there absolutely is! more than i realised, now that i think of it... no scrubs by tlc might be my favorite at the moment. what is one that always makes you want to dance or sing along?

You know, this is one of the reasons you were always my class favorite. You actually make me think! You're just naturally smart, it's okay to admit. I'm glad to hear it, as you shouldn't be ashamed of either! Now I have to ask though, is there any crossover between the lists? Some 90's girl group hit that make you dance like a king? As a 90's girlie, I need to know.

[blainetm]

PRIVATE. me too! and once a month sounds perfect to me.

of course we will. i'm expecting to be there for your 50th birthday, silly.

PRIVATE. i would really, really love that. maybe once a month? that's probably doable.

you think we'll still be friends when i turn 25?

[blainetm]

i think it was rachel and tina. i heard they rekindled their friendship and worked together to eliminate their competition.

seems unlikely, given that rachel recently left tina in the dust to go sing showtunes with blaine in vocal adrenaline. tina is jealous that blaine has a new hag and that has made her double down on her dislike for rachel. from the looks of the miscast party, it looks like brittany has taken over as tina's token insufferable friend.

BLAINE: i mean... technically, you'd be getting the exact same information, so i don't see why not? if it works better for you, i personally don't see the problem. BLAINE: BUT i think it's best to check with your professor, just in case!

💬 blaine & brittany.

BRITTANY: i have to read a memoir by a performer for one of my classes...if i listen to an audiobook does that still count?? @blainetm

[blainetm]

BLAINE: well, i heard that one rachel berry landed the part 👀 BLAINE: CONGRATULATIONS ⭐ BLAINE: this is so exciting!!

💬 rachel & blaine.

RACHEL: who do you think is going to take over karen smith? 👀 @blainetm

[blainetm]

who do *you* think is responsible for so many people dropping out? are jesse and harmony being too demanding? did blaine do it to help his besties get a better role? is santana responsible somehow by doing... something?

i feel like it probably has something to do with jesse, or maybe harmony. it's interesting that you use the word demanding, it makes it sound like either of them actually has authority - but he's not and she's not the director or in charge of anyone's role but aaron and regina, so why are they stomping around barking at people acting as if they're directing? i smell tyranny and real life mean girl-ism. the director needs to get control over their show. i can see harmony tripping someone and making them break an ankle just because they crossed her, and i can see jesse annoying someone to death to the point where they have to leave. i don't know if blaine did anything, but he is close friends with roachel, and he did mysteriously end up with the role of damian, who did he blow to score that one? did he do the actual director to get certiain people ousted? does blaine use his body to eject people from musical theater productions - is he that powerful? @blainetm @nyadajesse @harmonynyc
