September Puckerman

"But, change is so beautiful. Like the seasons."
- September, S1 E2, Edge.
September Puckerman is a main character in Glee: NDNG. She is a freshman, at the start of Season 1, simply trying to make her way in the world, and the school, through the arts; Photography and theatre. As of the end of Pilot, she's a member of the New Directions.
== Biography ==
=== Early Life ===
September was born to Quinn Fabray and Noah Puckerman, loving parents, who fussed over her, and spoiled her relentlessly, possibly to make up for what they lost with Beth. The house was filled with music, and love, and was often visited by Blue Brooks, who became fast friends with September. In Pilot, September has only recently started high school. She's rarely apart from Blue, and neither of them have many other friends. She's in plenty of clubs, such as jazz band, the school's drama society, Photography Club, and the student council, but still jumps at the chance to join more.
=== Season 1 ===
==== Pilot ====
September doesn't appear in the show until the auditions, where she sings Only Us, with Blue. For the rest of the episode, she's only in the background.
==== Edge ====
September grows sick of the status quo, and being in the background. She tells the club she wants to sing Corner of the Sky, a traditionally male song. Opinion is divided, though most of the club are skeptical, the biggest exceptions being Beth Corcoran and Jude Moody. Surprisingly, the biggest conflict comes from Liam Cook, who strongly believes that it should remain a male role, and nothing at all should change. September argues, but eventually seems to accept defeat, and sits back down.
At home, September talks to her mother, who's eager to hear about Glee Club. September then asks if the old Glee Club fought, and is immediately reassured. She makes her way upstairs, and sings Corner of the Sky, into her hairbrush. The performance ends in the choir room, where the club are impressed, especially Liam, but nothing changes.
After rehearsals, September stays back, to talk to Liam, where he explains that change never means anything good for him. September pleads her own case, and starts to get through, until they're interrupted. 
She turns to Jude for help, and nervously asks him to sing a duet with her, promising all the edge he wished for, earlier in the episode. He tells her that he's already agreed to sing a duet with Liam, and September 'casually' asks what song, and smokes with him while he explains.
In the choir room, when Liam announces that he's performing What You Own, with Jude, September claims she intended to do the same, with Logan Abrams. She's allowed to do so, so she does, and it's made a competition. When the vote is tied, Liam gives the win to September, to her delight.
==== Coming Out of My Cage ====
September's appearances are limited, but she's part of the group performance of My Junk, staring at Blue, and dancing with him in the dream sequence. Later, she sings Love Myself, with the rest of the girls.
==== Popular ====
September's first seen in a History class, where she passes notes with Blue, and joins him in singing Meet Me On The Roof. Afterwards, she questions his decision to break the rules by going onto the roof, but he dismisses her, saying they've never cared about that. September says that she has some extracurriculars, that day. Blue struggles to keep up with what's on what day, and wonders why she bothers. September says she needs to get her name out there, and be popular, because that brings happiness. She asks Logan if he would be happier if he was popular, and he reluctantly confirms it.
In the choir room, at lunch, she's staring at Blue when rehearsals start. Beth affectionately calls her up to sing, and September says she has a song for a guy she knows. She sings Pulled, and is teased, especially by Blue, afterwards, who desperately wants to know who the guy is. It's also revealed that Beth's been spending a lot of time with September, helping her with Glee stuff, and Ophelia says that people are starting to question it. 
After the rehearsal, September notices Ricky Vincent and Beth basically flirting, then leaves with Beth, talking about song choices.
In the after school rehearsal, September doesn't show up, to Beth's concern, and neither does Blue. During Rewrite the Stars, they're revealed to be kissing in a broom closet. Blue tells her to ignore Beth's texts.
==== Invitationals ====
September worries that Beth is annoyed at her for missing rehearsals, as Beth seems distant.
Later, after Beth and Quentin Talley's argument unfolds, September's the first to appear in the performance of Good For You in Beth's dream, a representation of Beth's guilt for ignoring her, which the others join gradually, expressing their negative feelings towards Beth.
Despite this, in the lead up to the Invitationals performance, September doesn't feel right about performing without Beth. 
When it comes to the performance itself, September sings a solo line in the Positive section of the medley.
== Personality ==
September thinks of herself as an outsider, which is why she joins so many clubs. She's kind but opinionated, and not afraid to fight her corner. She has a deeper enthusiasm for Glee Club than most, because she's a 'legacy' who knows how much her parents loved it.
== Style/Appearance ==
September isn't particularly concerned with fashion when it comes to herself, but still, she dresses nicely enough. She's most comfortable in a slouchy beanie, and a baggy, plaid shirt over a tank top.
== Trivia ==
* Logistically, it's impossible, or at least highly unlikely, that September would be at school at the same time as Beth.
