Is it really necessary for you to break my heart?

Which is to say that I adored absolutely everything about this chapter, but I'm running late and an "YOU ARE THE MOST AMAZING PERSON EVER" will have to suffice. <33333333

[missgoalie75]

I'M GLAD YOU LIKED IT. I swear it's like with every passing episode, RIB was making things bloody impossible to write this story; I was FURIOUS when this episode aired because it came out of fucking nowhere, so I did my best haha

THANK YOU <333

Oh my god, bb. I don't know how you managed to work within the canon of the ep and still make it okay...but you did! Oh, you little genius, you!

Favorite lines:

He can never actually hate Quinn. As he told her once, she had his baby and that fucking means something.

As much as Quinn believes that changing your appearance into what you want it to be as something that comes from a place of self-love, she can't help but think, why didn't anyone fight for me?

But this is probably going to be the most vulnerable he'll ever see her (which is really something, given that he saw her give birth, for Christ's sake).

I just...I love this sfm.

LASKJFLSDKF YESS!!! BIGGEST CHALLENGE YET. Srsly, I was so pissed at RIB for making this her backstory, but I'm glad this works anyway.

LOL the parenthesis was actually a last minute add in for the third line XD And I'm glad you liked the second one because that's one of my favorites - I felt really badly for Quinn in that scene when everyone was telling Rachel not to do it when Quinn's FATHER agreed and paid for the nose job. So sad.

It really made that line for me. Oh, god. So much history with them.

I KNOW. D:

YOU LIED. It's not Friday :)

LOVED IT.

OK, that extra scene with the doctor, YES, because by the end of the episode I was totally thinking he "noticed," her nose.

Okay, this is adorable. His dancing is kind of terrible, but his voice is pure and his face is just so earnest; it's a nice reminder of why Quinn still cares so much for Finn.

Aww.

she can't help but think, why didn't anyone fight for me?

Creys.

From Noah Puckerman:
I know I was totally hating on that Warbler kid, but that was precious as fuck.

I lol'd. Puck is such a sap for singing!

Ahhhh, that last part. :( :/

...couldn't come up with a reason why Quinn wasn't at the mall either, huh? (she's not there right??? I pause and look and pause and look and have yet to find her). Meh.

Looking forward to prom. Seems like you've set up some good for that here.

I KNOW IT'S BECAUSE I FINALLY GOT INTERNET IN THIS FUCKING HOTEL. SURPRISE!!!

Puck totally is - he appreciates a good serenade ^_^

I think she was still recovering from the Lucy Caboosey shit and she's kind of upset with/jealous of Rachel for all this support, hence not going, but I honestly kind of forgot about her not being there /I'M SUCH A FAILURE

I'm really excited for the last bunch of episodes - there's a lot of awesome stuff to work with ^_^

[pee_wee_2005]

Wait, where are you and what are you doing now? I saw that beach pictureuhh, you bitch weren't you just at The Hamptons ;D. Looked awfully nice.

[missgoalie75]

I'm in South Carolina at the moment - it was kind of bad planning of mine that I was in the Hamptons, I came home for less than 24 hours, and then hopped on a plane with my family to SC, but yeah. That's where I am. I'm flying home tomorrow, though, so I'll be around tumblr/LJ more soon ^_^

But yesss, it's so beautiful here - the ocean is a great temperature and it's hot weather, which I like after the sucky winter I suffered through living in CT, so.

[queen_lefay]

This was everything I knew it would be- absolutely brilliant. If I tried to list all the things I loved, this would be as long as the chapter itself! It was really great to see not only how much Puck understood Quinn's desire to change herself (which, really, Quinn has a point- she loved herself enough to get in shape, who cares if she had a nose job and dyed her hair?) but that he really saw Lauren in a harsh light for what she did. I wish they'd let us see that on the show, because I don't think Puck would have been happy about her exposing that kind of personal shame for any of the Glee girls, let alone his baby mama. Love this story, as always, can't wait for more!

[missgoalie75]

I'm so glad you liked it!! Yeah, I think that's what bothered me the most with Lauren doing that - Puck was clearly involved and yet he so wouldn't have been okay with the entire thing. Dumb writers, focusing on stupid shit and forgetting that Quick existed.
