Finn & Quinn tribute - [Closer by Joshua Radin] - (R.I.P. Cory Monteith)

Click: 0:30 to skip to the beginning of the video. Also, all of the voiceovers are transcribed (typed out) at the bottom of the description. ~~~ So I run GleekyCollabs2 and am subscribed to tons of Glee vidders and follow tons of Glee fans on twitter. Ever since 11 days ago when I woke up to the news that Cory Monteith had passed away the day before, this actor has been on my mind. Also in my thoughts have been all of the people he left behind, and as someone who has always been a huge fan of Quinn on this show and of Dianna Agron in general, my mind has gone to the sweet Fuinn moments this show had. The fact that Dianna Agron has acted one on one with him more than she has with Puck or Sam or probably anyone actually, and touched him/leaned on him/hugged him/kissed him a lot - two actors with no romantic feelings for each other who do all that over the course of over 3 years really are bound to have an intimate friendship. Dianna Agron has released an official statement after Cory's death: "I have never lost a friend. In this difficult time, I am leaning on all of the wonderful memories we shared with Cory, how many ways he was able to make us smile... Glee was a gift to all of us. It gave us a family in this industry. "We really cut our teeth and grew up on this show. In playing underdogs, we learned that we had dug into the hearts of our viewers and that we could stay there... Cory is so deserving of that place in everyone's hearts. He was one of the most generous and kind people that I have ever met. He had a smart, curious mind, he was an enormous talent. He was loving to not only me, but my family. "My heart goes out to his family, to Lea, to everyone that is struggling with the loss of our friend... We will miss you Cory. We will always carry a piece of you with us." For almost two years now I've been writing a Quinn in season 1 of Glee fanfic; http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7270885/1/Quinn-Fabray-A-Cheerleader-s-Heartbreaking-Journey It is based heavily on what really did happen in the show, so I have re-watched with extreme attention to detail every Quinn-related moment in episodes 1-14 of the show. So many of these moments, in the first 14 episodes of the show, are Fuinn-related. When I watched the show for the first time, I had no idea anyone did or would ship Fuinn legitimately - it seemed obvious that with Quinn lying to him about the baby being his and Finn more into Rachel that there was no way this ship was a good one to support. But when I found out that people shipped them, I let myself realize that maybe there was a little more to them than immediately meets the eye for people like me. While I still ship Quick passionately... Fuinn is lovely in it's own way, so many times. I have vidded the ship for my GleekyCollabs2 collab group a number of times, included many Fuinn moments in my 2 Quinn character study videos here on this channel, and have explored the idea of Fuinn in depth in the process of writing my fanfic, linked to above. Writing original scenes for them and exploring Quinn's thoughts on Finn as a person, as well as just re-watching all of those Fuinn scenes so carefully, really makes me realize I do ship these two. I truly, fully, multi-ship when it comes to certain characters on this show, especially Quinn. I see so much depth to Fuinn and I really enjoyed making this tribute. I know my editing is sloppy at times, but I was just in the mood over the course of only the last 24 hours or so to make this and kind of did it all in one sitting, pausing only to you know, sleep... and so I didn't test render it or try too hard to get all of the details exactly right. I just... wanted to get this out. It was emotionally cathartic for me. I have seen some beautiful, bittersweet Finchel videos made since Cory's death, but I searched and found no Fuinn ones. So hopefully this video successfully fills that void. Sorry if I excluded your favorite Fuinn scene. Please enjoy the video. ;) Song: Closer Artist: Joshua Radin Lyrics: http://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/joshuaradin/closer.html Voiceovers: Finn: I love you, Quinn. Quinn: I love you too. Finn: I guess if I'm being honest, I'm not over her. Finn: You know why it hurt so bad when you cheated on me? Because it meant you didn't love me. Quinn: That's not true. Quinn: He's a gentleman! Finn: You're the most beautiful girl I've ever seen in my life. Finn: It's okay. Everything's gonna be okay. Quinn: He's such a good guy. Quinn: Look, I made a mistake with Puck. You should've been my first. This is where I belong. With you. Okay? Finn: Okay. Quinn: Finn is a good guy! He loves me! Finn: Quinn's parents threw her out. Finn: Look, I'd be lying if I said I didn't have feelings for you. I probably always will. Quinn: You were amazing this week. It reminded me of why I loved you. Finn: Quinn, I'm sorry. I still love you... Quinn: Finn... Finn: I know you and you don't think you are, but you're strong enough to do this.
