[up]It's partly her fault that Santana was outed to the whole state...

Also, this is a good (though not Blaine-friendly) analysis on the parallels between "Special Education" and "Hold On To Sixteen." To summarize it in a way that isn't completely rude to Blaine:

  • Special Education
    • Kurt joins the Warblers with ideas that are rejected.
    • Kurt auditions, but doesn't get a solo.
    • Blaine catches up to him and tells him this is because he's trying too hard for attention, being a team player means fitting in when others (in this case, Blaine) get solos.
  • Hold On To Sixteen
    • Blaine comes to New Directions with ideas that get rejected.
    • He snaps and slut-shames Sam.
    • Finn catches up to him and tells him he has an incredible talent. Blaine then gets solos in two of the songs that episode.
    • Sam instantly warms back up to Blaine.

The conclusion of the above analysis:

Now let me ask you: Which one makes less sense? The one where the boy we’re supposed to root for gets absolutely nothing for no discernable reason or the one where the boy we’re supposed to root for gets absolutely everything for no discernable reason? If this is supposed to be another abject lesson in Just face it, if you’re Kurt, your life is gonna suck and its flipside Face it, if you’re Blaine, your life is gonna rule, it works beautifully.

In Blaine's defense, it could also be a comparison between the system at Dalton and the system at McKinley. Thought the fact that he came out on top in both situations is suspicious.

Yeah, I think the problem was more with the respective systems; The Warblers give all the solos to one person, whereas lately ND has been evenly distributing them.

All the glee clubs like giving attention to their strongest singers. For Vocal Adrenaline it was Jesse and Sunshine, and for the Warblers it was Blaine and then Kurt, and for the Trouble Tones it was Mercedes and Brittany.

New Directions just has enough actual characters to shuffle them around, even though Rachel has been the common lead.

Right, I was thinking about the name Brittany when I meant Santana. >_>

And Brittany doesn't seem to mind being back-up. They make her more of a dancer than a singer anyway.

Yes. Which I wasn't expecting...

That's weird, it looks like they're gonna use all the ones on the album.

Eh...or see Blaine punch him.

But he's just too cute...;p

My Mileage Definitely Varies on that (admittedly I'm straight so...) To me he looks like someone shaved a weasel and taught it to walk upright.

Weasels are cute. Sebastian, not so much. I could go for Kurt punching him, though last season I was talking about how much I wanted someone to punch Kurt. I've largely lost that sentiment.

[up][up]I HATE when my cat does that, so uncosiderate.

And yeah, I do like the idea of "Sebastian tries to kiss Blaine" + "Kurt (or maybe even blaine) try to punch Sebastian"

Hey, does anyone when will Blaine go back to Dalton? I have a theory that Sebastian will have sort of "destroyed" the place, taking over the Warblers and bringing bullying.

(He can do all this because he is evil, and that is what evil people doooo)

EDIT: I need the Glee's club Strife Specibus Weapon Of Choice for Gleestuck... I all that I can think of is that Kurt should use Sai Swords :p

:O

It would make sense for Blaine to go back to Dalton once Kurt graduates... But then again, I'm sure the writers will want a decent batch of familiar faces for next year's New Directions, so that isn't very likely.

[up]Future kids! <3

Brittany's weapon of choice should be a swordfish.

I think Kurt trying to punch anyone would be highly entertaining.

The "future children" thing is nice, but apperently people are getting into fights trying to claim these children for their ships. "Harmony is Faberry's Baby!" "No, she's Finchel's baby!" It's a bit ridiculous.

Though, the only one that makes sense to me given the character's motivations is Sebastian being Kurtofsky's: the reason he's so forward and rude? He's making his best efforts to Break up Klaine while remaining distant (aka hostile) to one of his fathers so he doesn't screw up the timeline.

Ridiculous? Sounds about par for the course for this fandom.
