Sorry about being MIA, been busy IRL. Second part of ch11 has been sent to beta. Now to write the last bit of this long-ass chapter!
After that I think I'm going to take a break from wrapping up TEF pt2 (one side chapter followed by one regular chapter to go) and try to play catchup on the fic I owe, oh, PRACTICALLY EVERYBODY.
I did want to break my MIA-ness to say I can't get Lady Antebellum's song "Need You Now" out of my head. I don't actually like the song, it's way too slow and schmaltzy for my tastes, but I get to the chorus and I can't help but envision Brick showing up on Blossom's door, hanging off the frame in a drunken stupor, and she is, of course, SUPER UN-AMUSED and is just like GET YOUR DRUNK SELF OFF MY PORCH AND GO HOME.
If I have not stated this outright, by the way, a good portion of my Reds playlist (certainly the most entertaining portion on account of all the bubblegum pop it contains) involves Brick fabricating these personal fantasies about him and Blossom being romantically involved while she just carries on with her life unawares. And then when he confronts her about this relationship that doesn't actually exist she is all I'm sorry what drugs are you on?
He's not on drugs, Blossom. He just represses everything. ESPECIALLY WHEN IT COMES TO YOU.
I only started doing this after I listened to Weird Al's "Polka Face" btw
The tempo he sings "Need You Now" at is way preferable to the original IMO
Oh shit if some pop punk boy band covered this song that would be perfect I would never stop listening to it
P.S. By the way, I finally
updated the sticky with links to the awesome fanart people have done of TEF!
