Anonymous asked: It sounds like Matt wants to meet him, too. If Liam's as friendly as you are, he'd probably like to play video games with you guys and go to Breadstix. Sounds like a perfect welcome to America! Are you picking him up at the airport?
Anonymous asked: I hear that place is the best! I bet he'll love it! And he will probably be just as excited to see you as you are to see him. :) Getting to hang out together will probably be the best part!
Anonymous asked: What are some of your favorite American things? You could show him some of your favorite places in Lima, or introduce him to some new American foods!
rutherfordisback asked: Cool. You'll have to introduce me.
rutherfordisback asked: Oh yeah? Is he cu- uh, coming soon?
Anonymous asked: Do you have any fun plans for when he arrives?
rutherfordisback asked: I gotcha. What's been up with you?
rutherfordisback asked: Hey. Just got around to following you.
Anonymous asked: That's amazing! I'm so happy for you! Is Liam going to stay the rest of the year? It'll probably make Lima feel more like home, now that part of your home will be there! :) I'm not too bad, Rory. Thank you for asking! You're so nice. :)

BUT I AM THRILLED!
He’s comin’ in a few days…. he’s actually been plannin’ on comin’ for a while, he’s just been wantin’ t’a surprise me! He’s securin’ his Student Visa, but after he does, he’s comin’ here!
And he’s gonna go to McKinley!
This is great!
How’m I gonna focus on me English homework now? I’m too excited!
Great, more boys!
THIS IS AMAZIN'! I'M CHUFFED!
I’ve told ya all about me best mate Liam from back home. But I just got done chattin’ with him, and…..
HE’S COMIN’ T’A THE STATES!
As a foreign exchange student, just like me! The Pierce’s have agreed t’a let him stay with us! I’m gonna be sharin’ me room with him, but that’s fine. We are best mates, after all.
BUT I AM...
Goin' t'a print out a study guide!
It’s not for me….
It’s for a friend….

Yeah, Marvin….

Thank God!
I will see you tomorrow, Rory.

Yeah…. study guide…. I, I have that…. I think…..
There’s a print out copy on my school website, or you can get a new copy tomorrow during class.
Thank God!

But what about the rest ‘a the test?!
Just look over the study guide I handed out and look over your notes and you should be fine.

That doesn’t really make me feel better….
Try not to sweat it, okay? Truth is, you can’t study for an English final. I think you’ll surprise yourself. If you have been paying attention in class, you’ll be able to get full points on the extra credit section.
But what about the rest ‘a the test?!

Ah…. are they hard?
I am terrible at English (as ya know. Ya are me teacher after all…..)
I remember my high school days and the stress that came with being a teenager. Don’t worry, there’s extra credit. So you are guaranteed to get at least a D, if you bomb the multiple choice and the short answers.
That doesn’t really make me feel...

Anonymous asked: That's really impressive! I could NEVER do something like that. Was math a big thing in Ireland? (I'm much better at English than math, too!)
Anonymous asked: Oh, your finals? How's it going? I'm SOOO bad at math of all kinds!
Anonymous asked: It's great talking to you, too! :) So what are you up to today, Rory?
Anonymous asked: Wow, thank you! Thank you so much! You're one of the nicest people I've talked to in a really long time! :)
Anonymous asked: Really? Y-you would be my friend?
Anonymous asked: I know. :( Fitting in isn't easy for me, either. I always try to be nice, but people usually end up walking all over me because of it, and as soon as they get what they want, they go back to making fun of me... :( But you're fun and sweet and it seems like you've made some good friends at McKinley, with Sam and Sugar! I'm sure you will fit in with everyone else soon, too!...
Anonymous asked: I'm happy I made you smile! I don't want you to be sad.
Anonymous asked: It sounds like Sugar is on your side, too. I'm sure Quinn and Puck just feel protective of their little girl. Who could actually stay mad at you? You're too adorable and sweet!
Anonymous asked: Well now, I'm just telling it like I see it! I really think you came across like you were just trying to be friendly. And if they had a problem with the way you were, it would have been nice of them to say something to you first rather than to say stuff all over tumblr about how you were like the Biebs, whatever that means. Have you talked about it with everyone yet?

Sugar thinks I’m right.
I’m just sayin’ that Sam can tell ya I’m not a creeper, since ya obviously don’t believe it when I tell ya.
Really? Well good for Sugar. The only thing I know about her is that she is an entitled brat. Sam telling me something about someone doesn’t make me believe it.
Sugar is not a brat! Ya better take that back,...

You’re mates with Sam, right? Ask him. he knows me well.
“Being nice”?! Don’t talk t’a me about being nice. I’m always bein’ nice, even when they treat me like shite and call me a flippin’ leprechaun.
I’m done discussin’ this, Puck.

1) I thought we were friends up until tonight. I didn’t know acquaintances gave each other pep talks, but okay. And could we just stop with the Brittany stuff? I’m having some personal issues with me…well, we’re not mates, so that’s none of your business, but me only motive was not to just pull with Brittany. 2) Shelby’s known me long enough t’a...

I never said you called me an idiot. I was just putting it out there.
No, people don’t let strangers watch their babies, but 1) we’re not strangers, 2) Miss Corcoran is me English teacher, so she’s known me since I’ve gotten to America, and 3) I didn’t expect America to be JUST like Ireland. I just thought everyone’d be, you know, civil.

I would have gladly backed down if you had just come out and said, “Don’t visit Beth.” But you didn’t.
My culture has t’a do with the fact that in Ireland, people treat each other with kindness. In America, the minute ya say something a bit out of the ordinary you’re suddenly some sort of pervy, underage criminal.
I’m not an idiot, and I certainly...
Goin' t'a study.
I have a geometry test tomorrow.
This is basically how I feel right now:
So, yeah. Goodnight, I guess.

I’m not dumb. I’m the one taking senior year classes as a sophomore. The only reason I’m not as quick as everyone here is because this is an entirely different culture.
I never insisted on seeing Beth! I just asked!
Smarts aren’t all in books, man. What does your culture have to do with anything?
You would always say things like “I haven’t met...

Yes, Puck, you did. And I’m not the one making up stories. This whole thing started when ya accused me of going all “Biebs” on Beth.
No. I didn’t. I’m not sure why you feel the need to dictate what I have or haven’t done. This all started when you kept insisting on seeing my daughter. Are you really that dumb, bro?

Ya do it all the time at school! The other day in geometry ya told the guy behind us that if he didn’t stop humming ya’d rip his balls off and stick em on the back of his pencils.
And I might be askin’ t’a move seats tomorrow. Unless you’re uncomfortable with that too.
Um, no bro. I didn’t do that. I don’t know why you are making stories up...

If ya really WEREN’T comfortable, why didn’t ya stop with the mind games and actually say ya weren’t? Ya threaten a lot of people about a lot of things. Maybe if ya didn’t hand out beating threats so often I would have picked up on it.

Yes. “Any funny business”. You said you’d punch me in me “Lucky Charms” if there was any funny business. Which there wasn’t.
Which implies that I. Don’t. Trust. You. I said something. You didn’t care. If we really were “mates,” you would’ve respected that I didn’t feel comfortable instead of doing whatever your heart desired.

I maybe said that… twice. And it wasn’t meant to come off as weird. I apologize if it did.
And Quinn…. you’ll always be one of the most important people in Beth’s life. You’re her mom. Some funny Irish lad’s not ever gonna top that. She loves ya.

I also then told Shelby to text me with pictures because I didn’t trust anyone with her. Maybe if you actually cared what I thought, you would’ve picked up on that. Or maybe when I told you I was going to punch you in the balls if you did something, you would’ve...

I did say something about it and Shelby just told me I was being ridiculous and you went ahead and did it anyway, Rory. So you are wrong, yet again.

Anonymous asked: Stop playing the victim, is pathetic.
-queenoftheangels asked: Puck actually DID post about being against you seeing Beth. So saying no one said anything is incorrect.
