Oh My Gosh Thank You So Much For Tagging Me, And My Music Taste Is Almost Exclusively Showtunes And Glee

Kurt?

Hi! I did Kurt in a post earlier but I’m proud of this one so here it is again!

Kurt’s mom was absolutely Aphrodite. He doesn’t have charmspeak but he definitely has some of the natural beauty of Aphrodite kids. His “powers” also somewhat come from Aphrodite’s origin as a war goddess. Really all he can do is leave a battle/sing-off without a hair out of place. Sometimes he gets upset at how useless his powers feel compared to others, but he still loves his mom and he and Burt always knew who she was.

And I’ll add more on because yes. Most of the kids in the Aphrodite cabin never bullied him for being gay because they understand that love is love, but a lot of them were very petty about the fact that he was competition. When they were younger teens they probably helped some of the bullies break into his stuff. On a happier side of things the perfume thing is still a thing in this universe. And it was a gift from Aphrodite. It’s infused with mist so Kurt could use the perfume to stay with his father longer before going to CHB and so he can go back during the school year. The monster attacks aren’t great for his heart but he joined a support group for parents of demigods and that’s where he met Carole!

You are literally a genius of the highest proportions

So I have to ask who fills what roles in the DEH, Kurt Carson and Blaine story you came up with because it sounds amazing

Blaine is Evan, Kurt is Zoe, Carson is Connor, Rachel is Alana, and Santana is Jared. Those were my ideas on that, what do you think??

this is the post they are referencing 

ruby coloring test but unfinished bc im lazy 

Dumb question but if you were going to change the spelling of any Glee Character’s name (first or last) to an obnoxiously complicated version of that name who’s would it be and what would it look like?

Okay I love this question. I’m such a language nerd. 

Kuhrt. Because it’s German (well, so is Kurt (the name) anyways). 

but my brain knowledge ends there

A Sugar Motta Rewrite

So let’s be real I’m probably just projecting a ton, but I think that with a few adjustments Sugar had potential as a character. So this is my Sugar Motta rewrite, inspired by @kurthummeldeservesbetter

So about the Aspergers… by this time aspergers was already no longer an medical term, it would be on the autistic spectrum. But the thing is with the way they did it it just came off like she was pretending to be neurodivergent to get away with saying things? I don’t think that is good rep and for this rewrite I’m going to say she isn’t on the spectrum because I wouldn’t know how to write that correctly and glee sure didn’t.

Now on her singing (this is where the projecting comes in). I think that a really good use of her would be to have this girl who loves to sing and loves to dance. But doesn’t realize that she’s really not that great at it. Her dad tends to spoil her and he doesn’t want to hurt her by telling her that she’s not good enough. So when she auditions for ND she still has that air of superiority and still does terribly. When Mr Schue doesn’t let her in the club she’s heartbroken. This is the first taste of reality she’s gotten about her own voice. So the troubletones still happen (but I would totally send different people over there, much more similar to @kurthummeldeservesbetter’s). When the ex New Direction members show up they realize that this gatekeeping they participated in, towards someone who so obviously cares about music was really just hurting the arts at their school.

It’s around this point that I would want Sugar to get a number, that isn’t perfect, but shows that she’s a quick study and is trying really hard at this. When the Troubletones fold back into the New Directions it would be great to have a plotline where Sugar is worried that she still won’t be good enough for them. And then someone (preferably Kurt because I’m a sucker for him mentoring and protecting the newbies) would give Sugar a pep talk about loveing the music and working hard and how they were wrong.

Idk I feel like this would have been a good use of Sugars character? To provide some juxtaposition to the main club who all came in and could sing like professionals, having someone work towards that goal is really important to me. It also would have given her a plot line beyond the Valentine’s Day episode and then maybe people would have liked her enough that she wouldn’t just disappear all the time in the next two seasons. And then Sugar could be a really interesting character to look through the eyes of in 4x01. With them bullying everyone? Idk I thought this would be cool.

Ugh going through tumblr is fun cause I’ll spend a while scrolling and wonder why I’m not seeing someone I normally see, and I’ll look into it and for some reason I’m not following them anymore??? Like I’ve had to refollow 3 blogs this week alone that I know I’ve been following for ages

Young Parisian corset maker Sylvain Nuffer began cutting, stitching and boning corsets for men four years ago and now sells 30-odd standard models a year at 500 to 600 euros (650 to 775 dollars) a shot, 40 percent more when made to measure.

“I felt frustrated by the lack of choice of clothing for men,” he told AFP. “I made one for myself and they kind of multiplied.”

Wearing jeans with a gray silk corset of his own making over a shirt and tie, Nuffer, who learnt the complex trade with his corsetiere mother, stands tall, waist nipped in, shoulders wide, back straight.

Corsets for men have a history, he said, worn by medieval horsemen to protect the spine, adopted by bikers today for the same reason.

But the real inspiration behind Nuffer’s corset - laced up the back with a clip-open busk at the front - dates back to the heady days of the 1789 French Revolution.

Male followers of utopian philosopher and economist, Count Claude Henri de Saint-Simon, at the time adopted the corset precisely because it was impossible to lace up alone. Having to help each other with the ties symbolised the humanitarian helping-other ideals of the Saint-Simonien movement.

Critics derided Nuffer’s early creations, however, saying a garment stiffened with a multitude of bones and stays would be uncomfortable.

Not so, said one adept, Laurent Renaud, who teaches at a fashion school and wears his everyday. “I wear it over a shirt or under a sweater,” he said. “I use it as daywear or to go out at night.”

“The problem,” he added, “is you get so used to it keeping you straight that it gets difficult to go without.”

NEWSIES S6 Style

Katherine Plummer: Jane Hayward

Jack Kelly: Mason McCarthy

Davey Jacobs: Skylar Warbler

Les Jacobs: Myron Muskovitz

Crutchie: Spencer Porter

Spot Conlon: Clint (Vocal Adrenaline, I know it’s not the right club I don’t care it would work really well)

Joseph Pulitzer: Rodrick Meeks

And I’m struggling with Medda Larkin but no on could pull her off but Jane, and Jane deserves to be Katherine so maybe they bring back Mercedes or Santana like they did for Grease.

All the other ensemble roles are filled by Warblers and other left over members of ND (Alistair). Kitty and Madison are both dancers in the theater scene and Kitty is Pulitzers secretatry, and Madison is the walker on the street that Jack (Mason) approaches and gets shot down by.
