OMGWTFBBQGLEE 2x08

[renrenren3]

I'm reduced to a whimpering pile of goo and even hugging Ducky for comfort isn't helping. Why can't it be next week now. I don't even know why I'm so hooked on Glee.

I saw Glee. And it was epic.

Now I feel a little heartbroken. Because seriously. FFFF KURT. Why so adorable. He breaks my heart with every single scene he's in. And I just can't stand the idea that he left, because DAMMIT NO! Why is he all leaving his friends behind. D=

I get that he wants to leave, and he feels awful, been there done that. And his friends tried to protect him but in the end didn't succeed. (I think I love Sue even more for what she did in this episode. That woman's human when she needs to be. And awesome.) Karofsky's one messed-up kid, by the way, but I lost all my sympathy for him when he scared Kurt into transferring schools. Besides his dad seems like a normal, decent person, so that's one excuse he can't use.

(By the way, I teared up a little during Burt and Carole's wedding. "Sometimes, he knocks down a wall."
I love that family.)

In this episode I actually didn't care about any other plot but Kurt's. And Sue was the other half of the plot, and I usually love her. It's just, urrgh, I need Kurt back. It'll be a pain to watch him with the Warblers, as awesome as they are and as much as I love Blaine.

I even got an appropriate icon. I wanted just an icon of Kurt, but I'll have to compromise. By the way, my OTP for this series is still Kurt/his clothes. (I loved the sweater he had in this episode.) Or maybe Sue/Sue. True fact: I shipped it long before it was canon and I have proof.

I'll shut up now and go do something productive.

I loved loved loved this episode. And I actually loved how they talked about bullying and even more how Sue reacted to this all, I was proud that she stood up for Kurt, also I'm excited for the next episode, because sectionals and everything, I want to know will Kurt sing with Dalton Academy or maybe he will return.

Yeah, Sue! I'm a bit annoyed that Will didn't react sooner, or in a stronger way, but maybe it's just because he wasn't in the episode much. Sue was awesome though, I loved how she didn't suddenly act nice and kept calling Kurt names and being snarky, but you could feel that she wanted the bullying to stop immediately. ♥

I actually went and had a look at the musical numbers for the next episodes so I know a bit of what will happen, I couldn't have gone a whole week wondering who Kurt would sing with. I want him back at McKinley's so bad though!

Such a great episode! Principal Sue was amazing and I loved how they showed her doing everything she could to help Kurt.

I thought Karofsky's scenes were creepy last week, but the scene at the start of this episode was ten times worse. That smile, and the finger dragging down Kurt's chest, and then putting Kurt's wedding figurine in his pocket? That kid is ten kinds of messed up, and I'm so glad Kurt finally let people know how unsafe it was making him feel (even if he hasn't let anyone know about that aspect of the harassment).

On the one hand, I've been looking forward to Kurt going to Dalton (because he needs to be safe, and Blaine and the others will accept him), but on the other hand, the Glee kids finally stepped up and were awesome again this ep, which made me sad to see Kurt leave them.

Sectionals are going to be sad to watch - I honestly won't know who to root for!

Sue. ♥

Seriously, Karofsky's scene was terrifying. The worst part is not knowing what's going on in his head. I'm now officially creeped out by people who ship Kurt and Karofsky, especially if they think it's romantic because that's one unhealthy and fucked up relationship if I ever saw one.

I get the idea that Kurt is going to miss New Directions after a while. Maybe it's the uniforms, but the Dalton boys seem all so... impersonal. Plus I have this irrational fear that Blaine might pull a Jesse and turn out to be a jerk. But he needs to go back to McKinley soon. Whyyy couldn't Karofsky be the one who transferred far far away?

[batgurl88]

OMG if they made Blaine another Jesse I would be really upset (though, given what I've read, I'm not too worried - I think he is genuinely just a guy who wants to help and maybe date Kurt). But yeah, I don't think Kurt's going to stay at Dalton for too long (it'd be hard to keep writing him stories at a separate school, and the stuff with Karofsky doesn't seem done yet).

The Kurtofsky shippers weird me out big time (and have since the obviously nonconsensual kiss). I mean, if they ship it while acknowledging the fact that it's creepy and onesided, then that's one thing, but the ones who think this is Karofsky's sweet way of seducing Kurt and the two will walk off hand in hand into the sunset have some serious problems. They really just do not get what's going on with that character/storyline or its implications. 0.0

[renrenren3]

Yeah from what I got from Darren Criss' interviews Blaine seems like a good character but I can't help be worried since all of Kurt's storylines revolve around him being miserable. I hope this time he gets some sort of happy end, and maybe can solve the Karofsky situation too.

I'm fine if people want to write their relationship as creepy, but if they start treating it as romance I start having issues with that. It'd take me a lot of character development on both sides to acknowledge that they could have a normal relationship. By the way, I can't help admiring the writers for pointing out that the noncon kiss and the bullying are NOT okay and showing how distraught Kurt is over this, because there's too many other shows/books where a character kisses another by force and then it's suddenly ~true love~ and it makes me sick because. That's. Not. How. Romance. Works.

*feels strongly about the subject, in case you hadn't noticed*

[batgurl88]

I feel the same - I'm really glad the writers let the "this is not okay" come to the forefront with all of Kurt/Karofsky's scenes, because yeah, far too many shows think that forcibly kissing someone will make them realise their true love feelings (and I saw a disturbing amount of commentary on that kiss where people refused to acknowledge that kissing someone who didn't want it could be considered anything other than harmless :/ People's perceptions on this sort of thing are seriously skewed by stories that romanticize that behaviour, and I'm glad Glee is taking it seriously instead). Kurt's face really tells you everything you need to know.

MTE, I didn't expect a plotline like this to crop up in Glee of all shows but I'm really happy with the writers. Just give me back Kurt before Christmas, kthx.
