i know what you did last summer // @theoriginalbadass
noah puckerman is talking to her and it's not about homework.
he's talking to her and it's weird and why is he still talking to her if he's not here for the homework? it's not that she doesn't want to talk to him. she's sure that there's things they could speak of, even if they've got nothing in common and no interests tying them together.
other than udyati potentially joining the glee club.
"i wasn't aware that mister schuester had kids other than daniel, his sister and the twins. then again, i'm pretty sure he considers all of the glee kids to be his kids in a way. so, yeah, must be nice, actually having a teacher in your corner."
wait, is that why he's here? is he trying to recruit her? does he have a bet going with his friends, or even with mister schuester, regarding her joining the glee club?
dang it. she should not have sang along to corduroy dreams and she definitely should not have left her poetry - aka her freeform english assignment - lying around for anyone, in this case: puck, to read.
"listen, um, i---" oh, she's so not good at talking to beautiful people. or, you know, people in general. especially people she doesn't really know all that well. "---look, i'm just gonna band-aid this: yes, i did theatre and spoken word. but i've got a fierce case of stage fright and i am not about to spend what little energy i've got left at the end of each day on making sure that rachel doesn't send me to an active drugs den, like she did to sunshine, because i can warble a tune, which either hits her ego or her anxious attachment style. not to mention we're surrounded by vampires here and yes, by that i do mean the teachers, because they suck every bit of your time and energy and personality right out of the blood and bone marrow. it's like we're all prometheus, chained to a rock, and they're the eagles sent by zeus, coming for our respective livers."
if he's not here to recruit her, this is gonna be beyond embarrassing. but on the other hand, then he also knows where she stands in regards to the glee club.
her voice softens, then, and so do her eyes. "i'm already fighting for my life to get out of this place - without losing my mind - during school hours, puck. i can't do the same after school, too."
What if everyone in Gotham knows who Batman is? They all know, they just don’t say anything. It’s not something that is spoken of or acknowledged in any way, other than the occasional glance or shared look of understanding. But they all know. Except for Brucie Wayne. Lord bless their himbo sunshine child, but he seems to be the only person in Gotham that doesn’t know who Batman is. He must be protected at all costs.
Everyone in Gotham knows who Batman is. (They’re wrong)
okay yes you’re being very normal BUT. “what makes you think he was a hero?” “because he kills monsters.” “what makes you think that she was a monster?”
“not everyone who looks like a hero is a hero, and not everyone who looks like a monster is a monster”
“…and against all odds, he managed to find his way to a happy ending”
bitches be like “time for a bedtime story uwu” and then log into ao3 to read some of the most unimaginably horrific shit anyone could possibly come up with (it’s me, I’m bitches)
Queer media really changed a lot since I was a kid. It used to be that your only options were to try to find a DVD of Rocky Horror, Rent, or The L Word and watch it without your parents seeing. Nowadays, however, you have your pick from a wide variety of shows that got canceled in their first or second season.
the way hayden's long legs move through his footwork when he's fighting is honestly a joy to watch again, such deliberate and graceful placement of his feet, synced with the smooth movement of his blade, and the way he pushes the attack but he can make it look like a dance with his partner. it's fascinating to watch his style grow more brutal and aggressive when he shifts into vader, so similar yet different, his whole body acting the part, radiating menace not just his yellow eyes and kubrick stare. the whole physicality of anakin, how lanky and strong he is, how graceful and quick, is what really sold me on the episode tbh that and his fucking voice. they did a fine job with his face, it didn't look much altered, but it was the way hayden played the role, how he stood, walked, fought, just his posture and the mere tilt of his head, all these intangible anakin things that were all perfectly familiar and right. there was a genuine thrill to hearing him deliver new lines with his characteristic mix of softness and intensity, hearing how gentle and inviting he can be in one moment, how snarling and mad in the next, it was all such a treat. like however you interpret the time he spent with ahsoka helping her reflect and gather resolve, i think his scenes do mesh in well with how anakin is portrayed elsewhere, that pretty, gentle, terrifying, angry man. ahsoka saw him, remembered him, imagined him, well, for better and worse, and it was just right.
