Glee 4x14 - "I Do"
I can only imagine what fandom must have looked like these past weeks if y'all were spoiled for anything Klaine-related in this episode!
I... I'm very short on emotional energy this week, so let me list the things I liked:
1) Tina being called on her stuff with Blaine.
2) Blaine getting his first hag, even if I'm not fond of the term.
3) Ryder's ideas for Jake with Marley.
4) Seeing Ali from The Glee Project as Artie's date and Artie having something to do.
5) Pretty much everything Finn.
6) "I'm Not Getting Married Today" OMG!!!!!!!! And everything Emma in general.
7) There was a Klaine duet that I can purchase and listen to.
8) Blaine's body language when he bounced back onto the bed after they had sex.
9) Kurt and Blaine in tuxedos OMG.
But then there's Klaine.
This is not the squee you're looking for. Move along.
I don't know what to say.
I honestly don't. I'm assuming fandom is celebrating. I am deeply and utterly confused and conflicted, because while I can fill in the blanks and am beginning to do so, there are so many of them to fill, from how on earth Kurt and Blaine started making out in that car before the wedding to why Kurt is being so blase about sex (and Blaine) which is something that he has always cared so much about in canon and makes him decidedly NOT Kurt-like (except he is, because it's canon, so by definition it's him) to why I think we're supposed to believe totally head-over-heels Blaine that Klaine is meant to be together except that Kurt is acting like he doesn't think so or want them to be (with the obvious over-compensation about the being friends thing and a few little tells that say maybe otherwise, but honestly Chris didn't give them tons of nuance or emphasis).
I'm assuming as fans we're supposed to be squeeing, but I'm... not. I don't understand how the characters got here. And I'm not a stupid watcher. I pay attention. I know canon from the start. I rewatched every single Klaine moment in this episode at least three times.
And I just can't be happy right now. I know I'm not going to get what I want from the show, and that's fine because it isn't mine to write. But I just... I want all of the steps. I want to understand how these boys who imbue everything with meaning didn't tonight, or at least Kurt didn't, because Blaine seems to have a lot of feelings going on. I don't care if Kurt is fighting it; I want to see him doing so in a meaningful way. I want motivation. I can write it in my head, but I feel like I shouldn't have to write all of it.
I want not to feel like it's sad and empty when my OTP kisses.
Oh! And this episode gave me a new contender for my least favorite Kurt outfit! The title is still held by the jumpsuit in the prom dress judging part of "Prom Queen," but his red sweater at the end tonight is a close second.
Anyway, as always I'm unspoiled. Please don't spoil me! Thanks! :)
