IC; musical discussion and double date with Kurt, Blaine, and Emily

[burgercraving]

[there are drinks lined up over the bar, but they're all virgin, for the sake of remaining sober during this discussion. Santana is rested up on the end furthest away from Emily with her eyes on Kurt, as she's looking at him with an indication of "get on with it." even though they've only been set up for two minutes, she's already growing impatient. like most times of the day, it's not difficult to find themselves alone in the bar, either. so it goes]

My heart bleeds for you.

[burgercraving]

What do you want, Kurt? Maybe it turns out that Emily and I aren't meant to be like you wanted. Now we know, I don't get kicked out of the musical, and life moves on.

[thegreateststar]

[narrows eyes]

You don't really think you get to humiliate Emily in front of Blaine and me, and still be part of the musical like nothing happened, do you.

[burgercraving]

... We are not doing this again. I'm leaving.

[thegreateststar]

[walks down the stairs and opens the door to the cabin]

You know my number; text me when you get some sense.

[yeah, hi, guess who's heard pretty much this whole thing]

Stop. Both of you. That is enough.

Kurt, you're not kicking Santana out of here or the musical over something stupid like this. She wants to be in it, and you want her in it too. If you have some other problem, you can work it out between yourselves, but let's get something straight. Me? Not humiliated. I needed a little air, but I'm a big girl, and I can take care of myself. So if she goes now, I go too, okay?

Santana, you and I can talk later. So for now, how about we all go back to our seats and finish the movie. It will be fun.

[raises his eyebrows and squares his shoulders, then, slowly, lets out a breath and closes the door before turning to Santana, clearly waiting to see her reaction]

[burgercraving]

[... busy being all ♥_♥, one second, Kurt]

[burgercraving]

... You heard her, Kurt. She probably used up all her spine-growing tablets to say that, and we shouldn't deny the girl.

Oh, and it's probably a good idea to stop deciding other people's feelings for them and what you think is best. It's bound to blow up in your face and that makes for bad cast dynamics.

[thegreateststar]

[shakes his head and indicates with his arm for the girls to go upstairs, choosing not to engage Santana this time]

We may as well finish watching the movie.

[looks back and forth between them for a moment and then nods]

Good.

[she can apologize to Kurt later for snapping at them like that, but things were getting ugly and she needed to act fast... anyway, starting to head back upstairs]

[burgercraving]

I think it's time we broke out the shots. Kurt looks like he needs them and it'll be a lot funner here with it.

[thegreateststar]

Pass. [following Emily and Santana]

[ladycoderring.livejournal.com]

[hesitates for a second but...]

I'm in.

[burgercraving]

Convince him.

[thegreateststar]

Not gonna happen. But Blaine, he might be amiable.

[ladycoderring.livejournal.com]

And he'd probably be much more convincing than I would too. It's all up to Blaine.

[burgercraving]

It's no fun being the only sober one.

[thegreateststar]

Au contraire, I derive much amusement of other people's drunken antics.

[youngburtreynolds]

[has been upstairs listening, but remaining blissfully uninvolved. no point muddying the waters, right? but once everyone is back....]

[looks over at Kurt raising an 'are you alright?' eyebrow and gesturing for him to come back to the chair]

I'm in if everyone else is.

[ladycoderring.livejournal.com]

In on drinking, or on trying to convince Kurt to join in?

[burgercraving]

Both. Right, Blaine?

[thegreateststar]

[takes his place in the armchair again, silently replying to Blaine's earlier question by raising his eyebrows and tilting his head towards Emily like "you heard her", then mouths "no"]

[youngburtreynolds]

[just nods at Kurt in understanding, putting an arm around him before changing his expression and smiling back at the girls]

Only if he wants to, but I'm definitely up for a few rounds.

[ladycoderring.livejournal.com]

[getting back to her own seat]

Well, it looks like there's plenty if you change your mind, Kurt.
