#(ex. puck telling parts of the story but not having any personal stakes --

my friend and I are watching the high school musical movies (I think I'd only ever seen the second one before), and yes. Chad is queer in some form and Ryan is obviously gay, but I feel like I've not seen people discuss how Kelsi is so very non-binary coded

#high school musical #im watching high school musical #im watching movies #we've seen the first and second now #also a tad aroace but that may be the unfortunate fate of being gender non-conforming in appearance #and therefore the plot is like uhhh stick'em behind the piano #it's the appearance of course but also the purpose within the plot #nb characters as existing both outside of the plot in some way but also as those who set up plot #(ex. puck telling parts of the story but not having any personal stakes -- #or kelsi writing the songs that get gabriella and troy to sing and thereby get together + reunite) #im sure people HAVE been discussing this and i have simply... not been around the high school musical crowds thus far
