Nov. 3rd, 2004 12:00 amI got the DVD of Teachers series 3. Well, I skipped labs to get it, and when Tesco didn't have it I dispatched
connorbeast downtown to buy it. And now it's in my grubby mitts and I love it so.
There's a whole episode devoted to Kurt and Brian's relationship, and trouble kicking off when they get a Christmas card addressed to "Mr. and Mrs. McKenna". The fact that everyone treats them as a married couple doesn't seem to phase either of them - Brian's just puzzled as to why he's being called Kurt's wife rather than his husband. Simon tactlessly points out that Brian does everything for Kurt and "if he *was* your husband you'd have grounds to divorce him for emotional abuse." "I'd never divorce Kurt," Brian says, hurt, but once he starts to think about it he realizes Kurt does take him for granted, and breaks up with him. (He words this as "our relationship hasn't been working for some time".) And everybody calls it a break-up. And Kurt views this as exactly the same situation as Bob's wife walking out on him. And they hold hands across the canteen table when Brian's decided he's made a mistake and is trying to get back together. And squee, for they are the slashiest couple of all time.

ship_manifesto is going to be about 10,000 words long, isn't it...

on 2004-11-04 01:46 pm (UTC)I want to read other people's fic :mope: Especially one set right after that last episode of the third season. Since Matt's asked them if they've ever snogged to see what it's like, and they know Matt's straight but has had gay experiences, I could see them drunkenly trying it...

on 2004-11-04 01:50 pm (UTC)I can see them drunkenly trying it too...
Why did they kill them off?!

on 2004-11-04 01:52 pm (UTC)(I'd nearly have preferred them to just disappeared: it'd be logical enough that the new school would already have a full PE and IT staff. I mean, would Brian really take a job there if Kurt wasn't offered one, or vice versa? They couldn't even stay in their own colour zones during Clare's attempt to break up the cliques in the staffroom...)
