Oh girl I thought these were never coming back! I'm so happy I have your fangirling to remind me I'm not alone...
Agree with nearly everything except the bad!sex, which I loved for 4 reasons: 1) normal people in love don't have spectacular sex on the first go, they have to learn what the other person needs; 2) the fact that 10 billion obstacles couldn't stop them from having sex, even bad!sex itself, is a testament to how much these two are mtb; 3) Dan's celibacy could only end in Blair*, and hilariousness; and 4) look, our ship can be smart, sensitive, snarky, silly, and sexy, and all five of those were on display with this ep. They gots range!
Also, rumor has it Bart's gonna be back on the show soon, so we gonna have even more parallels to C/B/D than ever before!
*EDIT: lol meant to say "end in Dair" but I'm leaving it because that's too perfect.
Ans yes, I realize that mindblowing first time sex is not realistic, but that's why I watch GG, lol. I kind of wanted that for my Dair babies, but I see your POV as well.
Also, yes, this Bart rumor is so ridiculous and awesome at the same time.
I absolutely adore your episode recaps! The bored/sleepy icons made me laugh every single time and for me, they seriously summed up each GG scene that didn't have Dair in it.
I used to at least like Serena but her hypocritical drama just makes me want to throw my computer against the wall. Of course, I have to remind myself that if I do that, I miss out on all the amazing dair lip sex. SO yeah . . . not going to happen!!
And OMG the only thing better than dairevator sex was that awesome cedric moment!! These two are just so freaking perfect!! I can't wait to see your recap for the next episode!!
Love the little squeak sound Blair makes. Seriously, this is what I adore about our ship. Even in the midst of sexy times, they're still having fun.
This. 1000000000 times this.
Because, call me crazy, but one of the selling points of a couple is believing they like each other and being with each other.
I don't care if you tell me "Look at this Tortured Lovers! It's Destiny!": if 85% of the time I see them they're angsting, unhappy and brooding I can only ask myself WTF are they even doing together if it only makes them miserable. Conversely, if I see a couple constantly smiling, laughing, wrapped up in each other and looking genuinely thrilled about being together I just might believe they care about their partners and their relationship. I might even believe said relationship to be a good thing and be invested in it. Weird, uh?
Let's hope the GG writers have learnt something from past messes and don't screw this up.
Thank you for the comment. And, yes I agree, Dair has a great balance: they are not too OTT dramatic and they aren't just wacky, screwball comedy romantic either. That's one of the things I love about them.
Ahahaah, yes. IKR?! Dair is slowly becoming one of my all time OTP and it's on such a crappy show. To be fair, GG USED to be good. It's too bad they picked the worst season to go into to Dair, but ::Shrug::, I'm not complaining.

Oh, and don't even get me started on Serena. I was just starting to 'get' her again and now the show's ruining her character.
And Cedric! Probably my fave part of the ep (minus dairevator sex, obviously lol)

Dair are perfection. I still can't get over how they could be written so well when the rest of the show is SO SO SOOOOO BADDDDDD.
