I keep saying it, Blaine is me with boy parts. I'm not surprised at all by the shove. Blaine is the kind who cares for others and wants to do the right thing, but he's always had a bit of a temper buried within. There's a reason people say "Beware of the nice ones

[weyrdchic]

Oh, it's not the shove, it's how quickly he did it and how much he went out of his way to do verbal takedowns of everyone too. When someone pushes a button he falls apart pretty quick, but up to now mainly it's been towards Kurt or about sad things, so it's been creys and stuff. It's not that he got visibly judgy and angry at heckling from some stranger adult, it's that he told him so in no small terms to his FACE.

When I was in school with my true platonic love forever (and the one person I usually refer as my Kurt when describing these situations) I saw her with a bully one time. I knew she was being bullied, but she was a grade higher than me and two years older so I never got to see until that day in P.E

What you said here and above re: being taken aback by being combative.. I dunno, this may sound weird but re: Sandy, I thought that it was kind of similar to/a flip side to him talking to Burt. He isn't afraid to say things to people's face, even adults, even if it's difficult/inappropriate, and he is clearly quick to anger - I've thought that since NBK where he was like 'It really ...pissed me off' where he was controlling himself so hard like he had to cut himself off from swearing or ranting for the sake of the conversation with Kurt. Speaking to Burt was very calculated and planned and he still did it - when fuelled by anger, I don't think he has a lot of reservation at all, like that he works very hard to control himself, and hasn't had anything to set him off in a long time, but that it can overwhelm him. Plus Karofsky called him an offensive SEXUAL nickname, as opposed to just an offensive flowery one, and it probably put him back in his old place.

Your thoughts are all my thoughts.

Kurt and Blaine were adorable as always. Especially Blaine in his reactions to the performances and the hecklers' shenanigans.

I keep seeing people commenting on how they weren't being physically affectionate here, and how they didn't seem like boyfriends, but I think their chemistry was as natural as always. Also, I think several factors are at play. They're at McKinley, the place that Kurt was driven away from in tears, and where they know that at least two of Kurt's tormentors are around. Also, their relationship is very new, neither has been in a relationship, and Kurt doesn't strike me as one to be comfortable with PDA anyways.

SANTANA THO. HOW FUCKING AMAZING WAS SHE. I NEED HER AND BLAINE TO BE FRIENDS. BECAUSE BLAINE. BLAINE ALL FULL OF RIGHTEOUS FURY TOWARDS THE INJUSTICE OF THE WORLD. PLEASE BE THE GAY TRIFECTA OF MAJESTY AND WONDER FOREVERMORE.THIS. After that scene, I so badly want a power trio of badass snarky friendship. Pleeease, RIB

I could put a longer response...

But basically I agree with everything you've said

[rm]

You know, it also occurs to me we see Blaine react so quickly to Karofsky because he's not at Dalton performing all the things he's performing at Dalton.

I am also sure Blaine is aware that like Karofsky, he's "straight acting" enough that he could have made choices like Karfosky's, so I'm sure he's a little bit galled by it and I can see him deciding it is his fight for that reason as well.

...I love this interpretation. Like, a lot.

And oh man, yes, Blaine at Dalton is definitely less campy and emotional and generally HIM than he is just sitting with Kurt at coffee or wherever. It's subtler at this point than during, say, Special Education, but I'm glad they kept that.
