Y’all the gays keep fucking winning
Honeslty all I need is rise of the pink ladies brought back and I can die happy
It all comes down to this! The final countdown begins!
Cynthia: If we don’t get out of this alive… If we’re both about to die… I love you, Lydia!
*Neither of them die*
Lydia: …
Cynthia: …
Lydia: So do you wanna talk about somethi-
Cynthia: No thank you.
Paramount+ have cancelled Grease: Rise of the Pink Ladies and they are taking it off the site all together.
If you’re not aware of the show it’s a prequel to the Grease movies. It focuses on 4 girls who are each outcasts in their own way, and they find their way to each other and create the Pink Ladies.
The music, the storyline and the characters are INCREDIBLE! I can’t praise this show enough.
I’m so mad because this show does deal with LGBTQIA+ and other important themes, we have a character who finds out she’s lesbian and another who is gay (it’s implied but not directly said). The fact they are erasing the show all together after so many people have found themselves relating to these characters and have found comfort in them is absolutely devastating! And during pride month?!
So to Paramount+… fuck you!

Cynthia: *quietly eating cereal*
Lydia: *groggily drinking coffee*
Cynthia: *whispering* Mer-cuttio
Lydia: *slamming mug down* IT IS SEVEN IN THE MORNING
Fully convinced cynthia and lydia move away to NY or something and cynthia runs their own garage and lyida has her own drama school and they take in all the baby gays who's families disowned them
(Also 100000% lyida looks at cynthia in awe and digust the first time she sees them eat their weight in hot dogs)
Lydia telling Cynthia that stage kisses (with other people) are like kissing the wall vs. her eager desperation when she’s about kiss Cynthia for real for the first time
merely players and all in are direct parallels of each other
“but playing’s real when you commit to danger” vs “even when the world is mad baby i’m all in”
“there's nothing that we can't feel we just got to move on in give everything without fear” vs “i know we’re both afraid but baby that’s ok”
+ the dances follow some of the same choreography
+ the instrumental melody from merely players plays during the kiss at the end
Cynthia and Lydia + kissing | 01x10
Grease: Rise of the Pink Ladies - Cynthia and Lydia “rehearsing the kiss scene for Romeo and Juliet”
lesbian yearning
A brain worm I will expand on eventually: Lydia is deathly afraid of Cynthia’s motorbike and vehemently refused to go anywhere near it until Cynthia pointed out that Lydia holding onto her when they rode is probably the closest they would ever be able to safely get to public displays of affection and she begrudgingly made her peace with it
