WHY. When I constantly gush over your stuff and how I'm willing to read your angst, even though I hate angst with every fibre of my being.

a true story told with macros ever_obsessed August 10 2010, 06:01:46 UTC

I was listening to it and was like, OH HAI, THIS COULD BE A BRUTAL FUTURE!FIC TAKE ON RACHEL AND SAINT-BUT-NOT-REALLY-A-SAINT!QUINN'S -- OH FUCK ME, NO -- NOOOOOO -- and then I made this face:

AND HATED MYSELF BEYOND WORDS BECAUSE IT WORKS IN SUCH A GODAWFUL, GUT-WRENCHING AWFUL WAY.

Fuck me, goddammit, and fuck the angst monster.

And the angst monster is like:

And I'm like, NOOOOOOOOOOO but keep writing anyway so expect it in a few days, -__________________-

Re: a true story told with macros boomwizard August 10 2010, 06:06:59 UTC

OH CONFLICTING FEELINGS. Now I'm even more curious because I haven't heard this song you speak of.

Re: a true story told with macros ever_obsessed August 10 2010, 06:11:42 UTC

OH GOD, IT IS OF THE MOST BRUTAL AWFUL PAIN. And brutally realistic but I try not to process it in that way with my childhood BUT ANYWAY, DISTRACTING MYSELF NOW, here, -_________________-

The video is not good enough compared to how well the song itself tells the story and I do not get the obsession with Megan Fox or whatever the fuck her name is so, uh, knowing your angst issues play it but be careful if you watch it, :|

Basically?

I MUST WRITE THIS SHIT OUT SO I CAN FINISH THE SERIES EATING MY BRAIN.

Re: a true story told with macros boomwizard August 10 2010, 06:17:17 UTC

I don't care for Megan Fox. Like, at all. She ugly.

Also, THAT'S FUCKING DEPRESSING. I can't imagine how bad the fic itself is going to be, angst-wise. I'ma die.
But I'll probably still read it.

Re: a true story told with macros ever_obsessed August 10 2010, 06:19:46 UTC

ASDFGHJKL, I HAVE TO WRITE IT, YOU KNOW?

AND THE SCENE -- AND RACHEL'S SO SAD AND DESERVES BETTER AND QUINN COULD BE BETTER BUT SHE WON'T BE BECAUSE SHE'S A DOUCHE WHO REFUSES TO DEAL WITH HER ISSUES AND SHE LOVES RACHEL BUT SHE LOVES HER REFUSAL TO DEAL MORE AND RACHEL DESERVES BETTER BUT SHE'LL STAY UNTIL THE END BECAUSE AT THIS POINT SHE'S USED TO IT BECAUSE IT'S JUST A NEW TAKE ON THE STUFF QUINN USED TO DO TO HER AND SHE COULD HANDLE THAT, RIGHT, AND QUINN LOVES HER, RIGHT SO...

and it hurts my heart, i can't even.

Re: a true story told with macros boomwizard August 10 2010, 06:23:55 UTC

WHY MUST YOU. WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO HAPPY ENDINGS.
I understand the need to create something though, even if you don't necessarily want to because the urge is just SO EFFING STRONG, and you're like WHY CAN'T I BE INSPIRED TO MAKE SOMETHING ELSE, WHY DID MY MUSE PICK THIS TO FOCUS ON? And then you vow to make something completely different later, but it never happens and you just end up doing the same thing over and over again.

Re: a true story told with macros ever_obsessed August 10 2010, 06:33:54 UTC

Okay, one? IMMA GET SO MUCH USE OUT OF THAT GIF RIGHT THERE, GODDAMN, I CAN'T EVEN.

Two: And then you vow to make something completely different later, but it never happens and you just end up doing the same thing over and over again.
OH GAWD, EXACTLY.

What is keeping me from losing it completely is the fact that I totes am going to write a short series to complete the first series with all the WILD HEART PAIN IN MY CHEST and BRUTALIZED!Rachel and Quinn finally grows a spine and there's a huge scene and someone sings The Rose to Rachel, I WON'T SAY WHO BUT IT'S SOMEONE, WINK WINK WINK.

For reference, The Rose, aka THE BEST LOVE SONG EVAH, FUCK ANYBODY WHO SAYS DIFFERENTLY and if you don't know it, this breaks my heart SO FUCKING MUCH:

JUST LISTEN TO IT, *___________________*

Re: a true story told with macros boomwizard August 10 2010, 06:39:20 UTC

adfsgdhfhj THE ROSE. THE ROSE, OMG OMG THE ROSE.
I've got the version by LeAnn Rimes, but OMG THE ROSE.

YOU JUST KILLED ME. I DON'T KNOW HOW TO FEEL. I'M TORN BETWEEN A BROKEN HEART AND A ...FIXED BROKEN HEART. WITH DUCT TAPE AND SPARKLES ON IT.

Re: a true story told with macros ever_obsessed August 10 2010, 06:43:29 UTC

Rachel's got the first two verses, right, and she's all BLAH, BLAH, I CAN'T TAKE IT because nothing's okay after everything that happened and she's in love but she can't trust Quinn and EVERYTHING HAS GONE TO SHIT and instead of the rest of the club comes out, it's not the club THAT COMES OUT, YO, IT'S JUST ONE PERSON.

And she's like, O___________________O

And Quinn's like, I CAN'T FUCKING SING GOOD ENOUGH TO DO THIS PART JUSTICE BUT FUCK IT, HERE, BB, FUCK YEAH, IMMA SING THIS FOR YOU because she doesn't have the vocal talent to pull it off AT ALL but right then IT DOESN'T MATTER and IT'S THE MOST ROMANTIC, PAINFUL THING I'VE EVER WRITTEN, YO.

.... I love that song so much, *_________*

Re: a true story told with macros boomwizard August 10 2010, 06:44:40 UTC

TEARS IN MY EYES. FOR REAL.

Re: a true story told with macros ever_obsessed August 10 2010, 06:50:57 UTC

asdfghjkl, it totally. Pulls off the exact point of what Quinn is saying by that point.

Because.

Rachel's been fucked over completely and can barely deal and is terrified and doesn't think she can actually give anything even if she were sure Quinn were actually serious and this is basically Quinn saying, NO, THERE ARE NO CONDITIONS.

She's like, if nothing happens and if you tell me to go fuck myself and run off with Finn or Puck or whoever the fuck you decide to get with when you finally recover, THAT WON'T CHANGE ANYTHING. And if you decide to try but don't want to yet? I WILL BE HERE WAITING, PATIENTLY. BECAUSE I CHOOSE TO WAIT. BECAUSE YOU'RE WORTH IT. EVEN IF IT MEANS I'M WAITING UNTIL I'M, LIKE, EIGHTY-NINE OR WHATEVER, THERE ARE NO CONDITIONS ON THIS.

And Rachel's like, O____________________O

And Quinn's like, YEAH, REALLY.

And I totes teared up writing this shit, FOR SERIOUS.

Re: a true story told with macros boomwizard August 10 2010, 06:52:50 UTC

Seriously. You're gonna kill me with this and I haven't even read it yet. IT HURTS BUT I WANT IT.

Re: a true story told with macros ever_obsessed August 10 2010, 06:55:13 UTC

asdfghjkl, I couldn't figure out what song, right, because nobody was epic enough and then The Rose popped up on my shuffle and I was like, *_____________________* because, like, YES.

Because Rachel Berry deserves to have her big love confession given through something this classic, dammit, <3

AND THE FACT THAT, LOL, QUINN CAN'T EVEN PULL OFF THE VOCAL SHE NEEDS MAKES IT EVEN BETTER because Rachel doesn't give a fuck and THAT'S THE WHOLE POINT, YO because she realizes that Quinn ACTUALLY GETS IT and ASDFGHJKL, DO YOU SENSE MY GLEE WITH THIS AWESOMENES

Re: a true story told with macros boomwizard August 10 2010, 06:59:09 UTC

HELLS YES. I'm a sucker for the epic romantic thing, serenades own my heart. I can't stress how much I love them. REALLY CAN'T. I'm trying, but there are no words.

Re: a true story told with macros ever_obsessed August 10 2010, 07:03:20 UTC

asdfghjkl, I feel like it's. The whole point of the growth Quinn has to go through from the beginning of the fic. Because even when she's saving Rachel from Shelby, yo, she still can't show enough vulnerability to actually show Rachel that she means it and that it isn't just her on one of her "better days" or something.

And then she's like, NO, THERE ARE NO CONDITIONS. I LOVE YOU. PERIOD, and if you don't want me, I will support you completely and even be your fucking maid of honor if that's what you want, yes, BUT I WILL STILL LOVE YOU, NOTHING CHANGES THAT.

And, like.

THAT'S THE WHOLE FUCKING POINT.

Love can have no conditions.

And then Rachel's still like, *______________*

AND THEN SHIT GETS EVEN MORE AWESOME.
