what are the other things you enjoy writing about?

what are your least favorite glee friendships (canon or crack), if there's any?

Glee things or in general? Imma assume Glee and if you meant in general let me know and I'll answer that!

There are so many topics within Glee I want to tackle. My magnum opus that I'm currently taking notes for as I rewatch the series is gonna be an examination of Glee's underdog obsession, where it worked and where it didn't, how it ultimately defines the show. Other things I'd enjoy writing about if I ever got around to it would include a lot more Pezberry (seriously I have all these thoughts they need an out), Sancedes(!), basically just every single friendship that existed on the show, more about the newbies, how season 6 is good actually, and then just pinpointing larger themes within characters arcs is my Thing, I guess. I've also written a lot about Glee's queer rep.

I have a few particular topics that I already have drafts for but disclaimer, most of these have been drafts for months oops:

Quinntana and anger

The popular kids (Finn, Puck, Quinn, and Santana) and all their parallels ("The fragility of top dog popularity", I looked up the WIP title)

Santana's comphet in the first two seasons

a Kitty Wilde deep, deep dive

Unholy Trinity character analysis through the lens of cheerleading tropes, how they play into and subvert them

Kurt Hummel wasn't a walking stereotype and here's why

Aand I think that's it for stuff I have outlines for. In order of how soon they'll most likely happen unless inspiration strikes or someone just like, asks me to prioritize one over the other. Legit thanks so much for this question Anon because you made me take stock lol.

As for Glee friendships, I generally either outright appreciate or am neutral about all. If I had to pick one, I think Will and Finn's bond had sweet aspects but I couldn't fully appreciate it because of the inappropriate nature and how much the things they share are my least favourite things about the characters. It's also just framed weirdly most of the time, first there are father figure allusions then they're best buds and peers. It's just not something I could get into. This is my own personal pettiness but I also just, hate how Finn is the only kid Will actually consistently cares about and treats well. But to be clear I do like parts of even this friendship and in general I really just appreciate all that Glee could bother to give us.

There wouldn't be any crack friendships I dislike because all of them have the potential to be good. If anything the versions we have in our heads are probs better than what Glee would have done lol.

#glee asks #anon #ask #anonymous #anti finn and schue #wtf is their name lmao #listen they're kinda swete but also highlight so much that i dislike #i need to get craking with at least one of those essays
