Gossip Girl - Cinephiles {DanღBlair} #70: "I thought this fake friendship might be real."

Ali · 01-31-2011, 08:16 PM

Welcome to the
BLAIR WALDORF & DAN HUMPHREY
Appreciation Thread

"Look who f i n a l l y got a little interesting"

"His eyes go wide, but his voice gets so soft and serious that I kind of love him now. "Do you... Do you love him?" Somehow him saying it, the way he says it, makes him wonderful: like the whole world is going Magic Eye and he's seeing the Blair behind the headbands and then ... It's like Victrola for a second. She's just a girl." - TWOP

"It's where Blair's language and Dan's language meet, because they're both afraid of the same thing, which is that somebody will notice how easily they can be destroyed... Dan shakes his head, knowing she's on autopilot, scared out of her wits in a ****ty Brooklyn café. They lock eyes it's the first time they've ever seen each other." - TWOP

"These two freaks need all the help they can get, and it makes me happy when anybody can see through or around the very substantial layers of bull**** they generate around themselves every day. Blair deserves to feel brave, and loved and Dan deserves to feel like he's helping, like his help is actually requested and required. Like a man." - TWOP

" She's Bergdorf's, he's Brooklyn and her best frenemy's sometimes beau. It's a mismatch made in bitchy teen-angst Nirvana, would leave poor Chuckles Bass with nothing but his practice sneer and a closetful of bespoke tweed suits to keep him warm." - TV Guide

"Google r e v e n g e and you'll get BlairWaldorf.com"

"I want Dan Humphrey's h e a d on a platter"

"Just follow my lead, H u m p h r e y. You're used to doing that."

1x04 Bad News Blair

Blair: Normally I wouldn't be this close to you without a tetanus shot.
Dan: My mom kind of left us a couple of months ago. Only my...
my dad and my sister don't really see that,
'cause she told us she had to go away for the summer to,
uh... to follow her dreams and be an artist.
But it's not summer anymore and she's still up there.
And that's all she seems to care about right now.
Every time I go to see her,
I tell myself this time I'm going to tell her what I think.
This time I'm going to look her in the eye,
and say... either come home or leave for good.
And so there I was, just the other day;
I was sitting across the table from her,
I looked her straight in the eye and I didn't say anything.
Blair: Why not?
Dan: I don't know. But I wish I had.
'Cause, even if it didn't change anything,
she'd know how I felt.

3x18 The Unblairable Lightness of Being

Dan: Just to clarify, I do think you deserve
to be with someone who makes you happy.
Blair: Well coming
as it does from someone who dates Vanessa
Abrams, it means very little to me, but still...
thank you, Humphrey.
Dan: Care for a dance?
Blair: I guess.

3x18 The Unblairable Lightness of Being

Dan: Hey, you okay?
Blair: No, I'm not... why do you even care?You've always thought the worst of
Chuck and me. You think we're horrible,
depraved, soulless..
Dan: I may have used, uh, all of
those words at one point or another but I -
I'm sorry, I'm not following... what's going on?
Did Chuck - did Chuck do something?
Blair: No, it's not just what he did.
It's what I did. This whole time I was
blaming him, but it was me too. I've become
the person you always thought I was.
Dan: Look Blair, you're not - I don't
think you're that bad of a person.
Maybe not my type, but you're not terrible...
and whatever it is that happened between
you and Chuck, I'm sure you can fix it
because if there's a pair meant for one another,
you know, it's you two.
Blair: You're absolutely right.
Chuck and Blair, Blair and Chuck...
who else could love me after what I've become?
Thank you for helping me see it, Humphrey.
Your ice is melting.

1x18 Much "I Do" About Nothing

Dan: This is so weird, I don't normally
do plots against people.
Blair: Don't worry virgin; I'll talk you through it.
Blair:Humphrey! You are a born liar!
Dan: Thanks, I think...
Blair: All that stuff about last night was genius,
anything you want to tell me?
Dan: Uh no. Like you said, just born to lie.

3x02: The Freshmen

Dan: You okay?
Blair: I just feel like I got off
on the wrong foot here and I want
to start again, so...
thanks for bringing me, Humphrey.
Dan: Oh, uh, yeah - well, you know,
I would just like to think that if I needed it,
somebody would do the same for me.
Though let's be honest, we both know
it wouldn't be you.
Oh, no headbands in college... okay?

"The only thing lamer than d a t i n g Dan Humphrey is mourning Dan Humphrey."

They are perfection. The end.

Humphrey&Hepburn · 01-31-2011, 08:29 PM

Ok,I can't even breathe,I just died in a pool of cuteness

All their scenes = amazing!

Air · 01-31-2011, 08:30 PM

perfangel5655 · 01-31-2011, 08:32 PM

tftnt! I can't wait till the first page is updated with the fabulous new scenes!

Today's episode was just amazing. It seemed like a ff coming to life. I am pretty sure I read scenes like these so many times in ffs. Watching more movies together as if they were friends or dating. I was in heaven when Blair was praising Dan on the phone. I still can't believe Dan brought her food. So he does think of her even when she is not around him

I am so proud of Blair. I loved how she managed the internship without connections. It really shocked Dan and made him feel so bad!!!

There were no Dair in the promos but i hope we still get lots of Dair. When does the Valentines day episode air?

lauratillnoon · 01-31-2011, 08:36 PM

FLAWLESS, PERFECTION, BEAUTIFUL, ETC.

Bringing her lunch because he knew she wouldn't like the cafeteria food? COMPLETELY ADORABLE.
I MEAN REALLY. I LOVE THEM.

And her whole little speech about how stupid she felt because she thought their friendship might be real broke my heart. Dan CLEARLY felt like a giant douchebag. I really want them to make up. You know Blair wanted to, the way she kept staring at his name on her phone.

I know the spoilers have never explicitly said there's going to be a romantic "relationship" BUT IF WE DON'T AT LEAST GET A KISS...

IF THEY ARE STRINGING US ALONG WITH VAGUE SPOILERS OMG

OMG I CAN'T.

Air · 01-31-2011, 08:37 PM

omg i can't believe they had a coffee breakfast date!

And were fighting about cinema and they knew all about each other's plans like Blair talked to him about her secret internship.

I can't even deal.

Ali · 01-31-2011, 08:39 PM

Gah I

them sfm. I don't like how they left things so I hope they can repair their "fake friendship" soon.

Btw, Blair in the scene when she says that!

It looked like she was tearing up, I felt so bad for her. As did Dan. :lsigh:

Quote:

When does the Valentines day episode air?

Probably in 2 weeks, lol.

Nothing Else Matters · 01-31-2011, 09:08 PM

always crashes when DB get scenes.

I can't wait to see the scenes!! It sounds amazing. Also I think it's good they left things on a bad note because there is no way they won't make up later on.

Air · 01-31-2011, 09:13 PM

Guys, I love them so much that I've become delusional and want them to take the fandom and media and writers by storm and end up being a legit quadrangle with Serena and Chuck and then win in the end!

**bittersweet** · 01-31-2011, 09:22 PM

Omgggg loved this ep!! Im in love! tftnt!!! I hope we get some more dair.
