Gossip Girl 1x16 - All About My Brother

[fembuck]

OMG!  That end scene was perfection!  Seriously, concerned Blair is the cutest, most adorable, most amazing thing ever.  Blair is the best boyfriend ever (Serena has officially lost her title for the moment.  And I can tell you the exact moment the sash and tiara fell off, right after she ditched Blair again in the face of Blair's "Don't go to France, I'll be there for you" reminder).

Jenny is SO unlikeable.  There were so many times during this episode that I wanted to smack her upside the head.  I mean, intellectually I think I kind of sympathized with her a bit, but emotionally I just dislike her so much.  Every time Jenny had one of her bitchy lines, all I could think was if Blair said that I would think it was the greatest thing ever, but when it's Jenny I just want to dump yogurt on her head.  TPTB were really, really lucky to get Leighton (because she makes bitch so very, very good).

Speaking of Leighton in all her bitchy glory, I loved the final showdown at Asher's party.  When Blair gets her bitch on, it's like everything is right with the world.  Especially when she manages to be Queen B, and defend a van der Woodsen at the same time.  Sure it was Eric, instead of her girlfriend, but I like the Blair/Eric pseudo-sibling thing.  Also, Leighton looked absolutely amazing in that scene.

In addition, I love that Nelly Yuki is now part of Blair's Girl Gang (Is must be so happy to have a Kati replacement, though I doubt Nellie is as fun to shop with).  I just really love saying Nelly Yuki (always the whole name, just like Blair).  Seriously, once Blair turns her doe-eyes on you it is impossible to resist her pull.

No Chuck makes me sad :( 

No Nate makes me happy.

Lily/Rufus makes me very happy.  It was nice to see the return of Rufus/Lily.  Rutherford and Settle have so much chemistry together (and Settle was having a really good hair episode.  Really, Rufus was particularly DILF-y tonight).  The scene with the wedding dress fitting made me 'aw' and pat my heart.  And the calls to each other over their parental woes made me grin stupidly.  It did crack me up that Rufus went to Lily of all people for parenting advice though.  I mean, I love me some Lily, and bless her heart she does try, but really.

I knew all about Asher being an undercover gay, so the real revelation was that he was an undercover-douche-bag.  Seriously, I never liked the guy, he seemed way to good to be true, but his whole "Did you really think someone like me, would date someone like you?" speech made me want to kick him in the nut-sack.  ERIC YOU CAN DO SO MUCH BETTER HE DOESN'T DESERVE YOU! (which I'm glad Eric figured out)

If I wasn't totally convinced that sometime before the end of the season we're going to see Georgina plant on Serena, I would really, really hate her.  Again, she's with the not-charming bitchy that I don't love so much.  Though, her menace and crazy do make her much more tolerable than Jenny.  I give props to Trachtenberg for making Georgina seem like a total sex offender though.  She's as smarmy as Chuck from the pilot episode.  Every time she is on screen with Serena I just fear for Serena's physical safety.  Georgina is such a sexual predator.  [small voice]I'm still looking forward to her making out with Serena one episode though.

I loved Jenny calling Dan out on his judginess.  And that is the only time I will use 'love' and 'Jenny' in the same sentence unless that sentence is "I would love for Jenny to DIAF!"

Leighton fucking Meester!  (I just needed to say that because ... well, because.  Who doesn't feel like exclaiming Leighton fucking Meester every now and then?)

And the end of course, was so gay  heartbreaking.  If I had Blair's open arms to run to every time I was upset, I would never leave them.  Blair would be all "Sweetie, what's wrong?" and I'd be like "M-m-my nail broke" and collapse into her arms.  As far as I'm concerned after the episode faded to black, Blair wrapped Serena in a hug and gently led her up to her room, undressed her and got her situated on the bed, and then held her all not in a complete "best boyfriend ever" way. 

As for Serena's "I killed someone", I kind of thought that's what it would be, especially after last week, but still ... DAMN.  It'll be interesting to see what the situation around it is, because I mean I know she's all remorseful and everything, but it's a ballsy to have your led character have killed someone (unless of course your show is called DEXTER).

Looking forward to next week, and the return is drunken, wild girl Serena (Georgie will be so happy).  Although I don't know who the writers are trying to fool with random guy, if Serena was going to have "I need to forget about how shitty the world is and lose myself in you" sex, we all know that it would be with Blair.  And if she was going to have dirty, drunken, "I'm so fucked up right now I don't know what I'm doing sex" we all know that Georgina would be standing in front of her grinning, willing to drag her to the nearest washroom stall/backseat of a taxi/alleyway/semi-private booth.

MOAR CHUCK!

Seriously, it's ridiculous how much I love this show.

[small voice]I'm still looking forward to her making out with Serena one episode though. um yeah i wrote serena/georgina just because trachtenberg makes me love georgina. she's the female chuck.

Leighton fucking Meester! (I just needed to say that because ... well, because. Who doesn't feel like exclaiming Leighton fucking Meester every now and then?) YES! It's like... LENA HEADEY!

As for Serena's "I killed someone", I kind of thought that's what it would be, especially after last week, but still ... DAMN. Yeah, I so called that last week. I don't think it's S's fault, though. Not sure how, but I just don't think it is.

YESSSSSSSSS.

I just have to say that the last speech by Blair was LOVEEEEEE. Her emotion and what she said to her. UNGH. I refuse to believe that there wasn't a little Bleighton shining through in that scene.

MOAR CHUCK!

[gespawcho.livejournal.com]

Dudes! Come ramble with me over at the Closewcho. It's on! I'm losing it

[bldy-destini.livejournal.com]

Seriously!

I have to say I am betting the guy dies smehow during the making of the little sex tape.

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

um yeah i wrote serena/georgina just because trachtenberg makes me love georgina. she's the female chuck.

LOL, she totally is a female Chuck. And I don't know what it says about me, but her predatory, perviness makes her totally hot in my book. I totally want a "Georgina, molest ME!" t-shirt.

Also, I must read this story. You haven't posted it yet, have you?

YES! It's like... LENA HEADEY!

Totally, only Leighton gets a 'fucking' thrown in there because she's so fierce.

Yeah, I so called that last week. I don't think it's S's fault, though. Not sure how, but I just don't think it is.

Yeah, after their hushed conversation of "you're coming down with me" I totally say something like this happening. I'm thinking a hit and run scenario.

Over at bleighton_squee forc0018 posted this idea: I think that Georgina took advantage of Serena constant inebriation and told her she killed someone. You know that storyline where the drunk/druggie is passed out on the couch and the real killer puts a bloddy knife or something in their hand. They wake up and wonder what happened. The killer is like you got totally wasted and offed that guy dude. Then its like "oh shit" gotta hide the body. And she like I took care of it babe no problem. Then it's like "oh I owe you big time." Only she goes away to rehab and now georgina comes back and is like "I will not be ignored"

Totally love this idea and hope they go that way. I mean, Georgina has already proved that nothing is outside of her ethical boundaries. After she ruffied Serena, I became convinced that she was capable of pretty much anything.

Also, you know that in Georgina's twisted little dream world where she are like an UES Sid and Nancy that 'sharing the secret of murder' together would be totally romantic to her.

I just have to say that the last speech by Blair was LOVEEEEEE. Her emotion and what she said to her. UNGH. I refuse to believe that there wasn't a little Bleighton shining through in that scene.

Yeah, that scene was pretty much perfection. Leighton fucking Meester. That is all.

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

I have to say I am betting the guy dies smehow during the making of the little sex tape.

Holy crap, I never thought of that possibility. What kind of crazy ass sex must those three have been having?!?

Those, since we know that slipping people ruffies is as normal to Georgina as wearing bangles, I would say that it wouldn't surprise me if they were on a ton of drugs and he had some adverse reaction or something.

Death by coitus might be a bit much for the CW though (no matter how darkly hilarious that scenario is).

[sinandmisery.livejournal.com]

I totally want a "Georgina, molest ME!" t-shirt. I'd totally make one of those.

Also, I must read this story. You haven't posted it yet, have you? Not yet. I'm finishing up the ficlet requests before I post anything else new. However, I am posting half of them as soon as I finish this and there's lots of Waldsen in there to hold you over until I post the S/G. They need a ship name, I think. Sparksen? van der Sparks? damn it, their first names are too similar to put them together. "Serina" or "Georgena" just doesn't work. lol

Also, you know that in Georgina's twisted little dream world where she are like an UES Sid and Nancy that 'sharing the secret of murder' together would be totally romantic to her. That's really twisted, but really, kinda hot in that Sweeney/Lovett kinda way.

[novak_fan]

Every time she is on screen with Serena I just fear for Serena's physical safety

Seriously. I'm happy that I'm not the only one that feels that way. To put it in a way weird Georgina give me this crazy-bitch vibe everytime. I feel like a protective mother and Georgina is the morbid dude looking at my daughter lol hilarious.

As for Serena's "I killed someone", I kind of thought that's what it would be, especially after last week, but still ... DAMN.

Also I was expecting something like this because Serena's actitude and all. At the same time it's kind of dissapointing...she didn't left because what happened with Nate? And this is my Waldsen fan talking.

I can't comment much because still I have to watch the episode *looking impatient to the d/l* but agree on "Blair is the best boyfriend ever" thing anyway lol

lol. It's true, bitch is crazy. My love for Serena makes me growl in Georgina's general direction, but I also kind of find Georgina amusing and kind of psycho-hot. But yeah, she's just so predatory with Serena. Lily is blinded by her charm however, and doesn't realize that Georgina totally wants to molest her baby girl.


Also I was expecting something like this because Serena's actitude and all. At the same time it's kind of dissapointing...she didn't left because what happened with Nate? And this is my Waldsen fan talking.

Yeah, I know. The murder is good drama and all, but the Waldsen-er in me is kind of sad that it wasn't Serena's gaymo lady love for Blair that sent her running for hills.

Serena was one busy girl that night though. It's like every awful thing she'd ever done happened that evening. Because of reference to Mr. and Mrs. Shepard on the tape, the sex tape/murder had to have happened after Serena's drunken encounter with Nate.

but agree on "Blair is the best boyfriend ever" thing anyway lol


Really good episode, one of the best of the season. And after the end there is no doubt about Blair being a 'best boyfriend ever', her "What is you, is me" made me a puddle of goo. If someone said that to me, they would own my heart forever. So sweet.

From the previews, Blair also looks like she's totally babysitting/taking care of Serena, which again ... best boyfriend ever.

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

I'd totally make one of those.

lol. Now I'm really tempted to make one. Because, really it's true. It's so wrong, but its her psychotic-ness that makes her hot to me, lol.

Not yet. I'm finishing up the ficlet requests before I post anything else new. However, I am posting half of them as soon as I finish this and there's lots of Waldsen in there to hold you over until I post the S/G. They need a ship name, I think.

Woot, Waldsen on the way = much happiness from me.

I vote for van der Sparks! It's kind of magical, which I enjoy. For some reason, thinking of them as Ser George also makes me giggle.

That's really twisted, but really, kinda hot in that Sweeney/Lovett kinda way.

lol, so true. van der Sparks is like the total opposite of Waldsen, but they are totally hot too. I totally need to write some messed up van der Sparks sexin'.

[novak_fan]

You totally should write something, anything about it =)

Blair also looks like she's totally babysitting/taking care of Serena, which again ... best boyfriend ever

It sounds like an episode with more than 5 mins of Waldsen onscreen then. Finally. I love even more Blair's character after what you're saying you know? I mean...Serena is great with her and all but it feels like Blair is always the one that gives more. Murder, cheating on bff boyfriends...whatever it was...still I'm surprised on how fast Blair forgave Serena at her return.

*staring to torrent address*

Damnit people, upload the damn file already!

[sinandmisery.livejournal.com]

Now I'm really tempted to make one.

If you do, please take pics! That shirt is made of WIN and it's not even in existence yet!

Woot, Waldsen on the way = much happiness from me.

The 16 Drabbles Posted So Far...

I vote for van der Sparks!

Me too. Though Ser George is also causing the giggle fest over here, too.

I totally need to write some messed up van der Sparks sexin'.

Please, please, please do. I might die of happiness!

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

If you do, please take pics! That shirt is made of WIN and it's not even in existence yet!

I totally will! (although, I must admit I'm lazy and will probably just end up making an icon, instead of a t-shirt, lol) Still, Georgina needs to do it.

Though Ser George is also causing the giggle fest over here, too.


I think we should save Ser George for serious occasions and use for everyday ramblings, lol.

Please, please, please do. I might die of happiness!

It will happen, hopefully sometime this weekend!

[forc0018.livejournal.com]

Speaking of morbid dude did you catch that scene with Lily and the planner. She told her to make sure that Mr. Something was seated far away as possible from Serena.

LOL that Serena actually has that problem. And Lily is so casual about it, I thought it was funny.


LOL your Nelly Yuki comment. Only Blair can totally ruin your life and you be like that's okay who needs college when I can follow you around.
I am ashamed to say that when I saw G pour that drug into S's drink I was like finally we're gonna get some girl on girl action. Michelle is really playing her character as if her and Serena used to sex.
My god Leighton is hot that scene when she is lying on that couch thing when jenny comes in. I think I would like to have intercourse with her.

[sinandmisery.livejournal.com]

OMG I think every time it's written, it should be just like that. Including the sparkles. LOL.

*anxiously anticipates van der Sparks! hot!sex*

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

Only Blair can totally ruin your life and you be like that's okay who needs college when I can follow you around.

Nelly Yuki has found a new calling. Waldorf worship. And really, I can't find fault with that.

I am ashamed to say that when I saw G pour that drug into S's drink I was like finally we're gonna get some girl on girl action. Michelle is really playing her character as if her and Serena used to sex.

lol, I totally thought the same thing. I was like "Dude, is that ... is she ... omg, she's gonna molest Serena!" And when Serena woke up in the tangled sheets I thought for sure that there had been sexin'.

I love Michelle for playing it like totally used to sex as well. Michelle ain't even frontin' with Georgie gaymo love for Serena.

Like every scene they are in I expect Georgina to try and kiss Serena or touch her in a horribly inappropriate way and it make me giggle. I'm a horrible person, lol.

Still, even though their sex is twisted and possibly deadly, is hot.

My god Leighton is hot that scene when she is lying on that couch thing when jenny comes in. I think I would like to have intercourse with her.

Oh, I know. Leighton is the sex. Blair is just so perfect. And Lounging!Goddess!Blair is almost too hot for words. Seriously, Blair could just lay there looking fabulous and I would gratefully go down on her for hours. She's such a fabulous bitch. I love her.

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

Speaking of morbid dude did you catch that scene with Lily and the planner. She told her to make sure that Mr. Something was seated far away as possible from Serena.

lol, "Sit Mr. Spitzer as far away from Serena as possible"! I was LOLing at that line.

Lily totally knows that Serena is a dirty old man magnet. The really funny thing is that Serena is probably safer around Mr. Spitzer than she is around Georgina (because Georgina is a total molester!).

[bartzina13.livejournal.com]

I still waiting to d/l this, but does Blair really say "I'll never let you go." ?? Because if so, I think we all have to make Waldsen fanvids to this.

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

Oh totally, is nothing without the sparkle font.

I totally have to write now, especially since I've decided that Georgina is totally the top and probably bites, scratches and slaps ... which turns Serena on hugely but also makes her ashamed which makes it like 10x hotter.

[sinandmisery.livejournal.com]

omg.omg.omg.OH.EM.GEE.

*twirls in glee* I'm completely giddy with anticipation.

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

She says, "There's nothing you could ever say to make me let go" (as she says this they are holding hands).

But the best part of the scene is that isn't even the gayest line. Before that Blair also says, "What is you, is me", and then she ends off by saying "I love you."

All is all, that scene makes Blair the best boyfriend ever. Seriously, she is the romanticest romantic ever.

If Serena didn't drop the "M" bomb afterwards, it would have been a Waldsen dream come true.

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

I'm so mad right now that human being need sleep.

I know that I should go to bed, but all I want to do is write porn.

*cries at the injustice in the world*

[sinandmisery.livejournal.com]

i know! sleep sucks. i'm waiting on this damn thing to finishing loading all the files, or i'd be sleeping right now. however, i'm writing van der Sparks! pr0n and also some Serena/Chuck/Blair pr0n involving the gifts from the Sparks to the van der Woodsen.

[bartzina13.livejournal.com]

What? No, "I want to die in your arms."?? She must be saving that for the finale. I am just sitting here trying to think of romantic declarations of love that go even deeper than what Blair said, and am drawing a blank.

[(Anonymous)]

so I'm posting this as anonymus cause I'm way too excited about this episode and have to share my thoughts and at the same time too lazy to make an account:p

anywaaaaaay...i actually hoped eric and asher would really kiss..I thought that scene was kind of clumsy and the writers didn't have the guts to actually show the kiss..which makes me wonder, if there will be a Georgina/Serena kiss, will it be as lame as that? or as lame as Marissa and Alex's kiss from the O.C.?
