Guys, Glee has taken over my life. SERIOUSLY. How is it that *one single episode* has had me head over heels like this?!
Crazy stuff, I say. Except knowing it's insane didn't stop me from watching I don't know how many related videos, or reading every single piece published about the show... not to mention the already awesome fic.
Also, and this is something that I really didn't expect -- for the past couple of years I've been watching a whole bunch of stuff in which the characters are well, older than me. And I guess that kinda gave me the impression that I was way past identifying/relating/loving teen characters. So when I started watching the Glee pilot the first time, I really figured I would immediately connect to Will and his would be the story I'd be interested in. Yeah, right. Sure, the dude is awesome and I love him, but I doubt my interest in him will ever reach the ridiculous levels of obsessiveness I've already reached re: Rachel and Finn.
That's right, folks, I'm back to 'shipping a stupid high school couple. And the truth is I'm not even remotely ashamed of this. BECAUSE THEY ARE THE MOST ADORKABLE PRE-COUPLE WHO EVER PRE-COUPLED AND I LOVE THEM A LOT A LOT A LOT, OKAY?
Also, it's been a week and the crazy amount of AWESOME FIC has done the rest of the work, so. YES.
...
Anyway.
