Summary:
They start making plans. They find an apartment and sign a lease. They set a moving date. And that’s when it starts to become real to Abed, when he starts getting everything ready – that’s when he realizes that he is going to be living with another person, and he starts to think about everything that entails.
can u believe i loved community way back when and i never drew any fanart!!! but i’m at the point where i can draw them nicely. here’s a pair of my two fave dudes.
troy to anyone who will listen: nono dude you don’t understand, its not gay to kiss the homies. its not. abe– i mean the bros and i wear socks every single time we make out and we say no homo so its not gay dude i swear
This whole destiel situation is giving me the tools to articulate why I don't want trobed to be canon. 1. They wouldn't do it right. 2. There friendship is so sweet and it's nice to see this kind of friendship, even if i personally see it as romantic, 3. All the other romantic relationships in the show crash and burn and I don't want to see that happen to them
yeah you're so right :/... maybe if they hired actual gay people to do it, it'd be cool, but I don't trust Dan Harmon about this. and honestly I feel like if they were canon, their displays of affection would be "toned down" not to inconvenience a straight audience (it sucks but it is what it is), so they'd probably share less cute moments together.
on the other hand, they have so much potential as a couple, and, if done right, could be amazing.
so yeah I feel you (and it's probably not gonna happen anyways) but I also don't want to give up on the opportunity.
oh no! i have watched too many movies and read too many books and now i feel as though i am stuck in a perpetual state of waiting, longing for some great violins to swell when a beautiful stranger walks through the door, for the camera to pan over and meet someone wonderful, for a montage of happy moments stitched together ! i am not real !
