This was so, so good. I love your stories with these two. You just nail them (pun intended) ;)

I think if the world is going to end than they better get all their fantasies fulfilled "just in case".

I get excited everytime I see your name attached to anything. I don't suppose you have anything new with Puck/Finn coming up? While I have LOVED all your stories, I think my favorite so far is the circle jerk one but after that I just can't pick. You just have their voices down perfect.

[bluejbird]

Thank you so much! That's such a lovely thing to say. It makes me happy to hear you think I'm getting their voices down okay! I'm really pleased you enjoyed this story, and the others too. :)

I've slacked off a bit with writing, but I do have a fair number of Puck/Finn WIPs at the moment that I'm just lacking the inspiration to finish. I have a couple of what are essentially PWPs, I guess, and I have a sequel to the circle jerk fic that kind of deals with the aftermath. I also have a couple of cracky ideas I want to try out, although I'm not sure if those will work out! (One's a Pirate AU, one's a bodyswap, and one is a sort of Teen Angel AU. Yeah, idek.) And I have a longfic in the works too, although the back 9 are totally going to mess with it.

Uh. So to answer your question in a non-rambly way, yes. I will hopefully be posting some more Puck/Finn soon-ish.

Thanks again for your lovely comment! Hopefully it'll give me the kick in the ass I need to finish some of these WIPs! :D

Oh, I have most certainly enjoyed your stories. And I also like that while each of them seem to have them coming together from a different place in their life (birthday story pre-Glee and all the baby drama, circle jerk around the time of Mash-Up, fireworks story post-baby drama, etc.), they all feel real and like I could really imagine it happening.

So excited that you're writing more (I'm a fan of long, involved stories but also of PWPs and everything in between) so I'll be happy no matter what. Really excited that about the circle jerk fic and that bodyswap sounds hilarious. I always wondered what they'd do if they got into each other's bodies for a while (if that's what you are referring to).

I'm hoping that we can get some moments between them in this back 9 that will help inspire as well. From some of the spoilers I've read, it at least sounds like they'll be interacting so that's something.

In any case, I hope you get all the inspiration you need, and I'm one fan that's ready to read :)

It makes me really happy to hear you've enjoyed the stories, and that they feel real to you. It's a lot of fun coming up with different scenarios that could happen between the two of them. I really hope they have a lot of interaction in the back 9- whether good or bad- because I (obviously) find their relationship interesting. Hell, even if it's just more brief looks like in Hell-O, I'd be happy (I joked with my bff that I could write at least 5 ridiculous Puck/Finn story outlines based on that one look, and made me prove it, so that's how I spent my lunchbreak today LOL

Ohhh...what scenarios did you come up with? Yeah, I look for all sorts of hidden looks and secret meanings and it keeps me busy and happy! After all, Finn wasn't really looking at Quinn in those scenes...he was scoping out Puck! ;)

Puck and Rachel switching bodies would be so hilariously awesome :) I'd actually thought once about the scenario of Puck forced into turning into girl for a week (why? who cares) but how fun would it be to see him in a female Puck body (you know he'd be hot), having him test drive all the more fun aspect of girlhood, and having Finn convince him that they needed to have sex so 1) Finn could finally get laid 2) Finn could act out his secret desire for Puck without it being "gay" and 3) Puck could do the same.

Now Finn and Puck in each other's bodies could be fun because...well, because it'd be fun :)

Oh, I'm pretty patient so you won't disappoint me as long as you continue to post when you can :)

Lol, this is so long I have to split it. Sorry

5. The look they exchange is one they always do- it's habit now so it doesn't matter that they're not talking. The look means 'We're gonna lose' and both of them hate knowing that. After they lose, Finn stays behind in the empty gym, shooting hoops on his own. Puck shows up and asks to play and so they do, because Finn figures Puck's the only guy who understands how much it sucks being a loser all the time. And they're both playing to win. And Finn's in the lead at first, but then Puck takes the lead. And Finn gets mad and shoves Puck against the wall. Puck looks like he expects Finn to hit him, but he doesn't flinch, and Finn's not sure why, but it makes him kiss Puck. It's angry kissing, and Finn grinds Puck against the wall, and they're both rough, grabbing at each other, making out in the empty gym. But then there's a noise and they jump apart. But no one's there. It's killed the moment though, so Finn turns and walks away. But just before he leaves the gym, Puck calls out "I'll be home all evening" and Finn doesn't respond but he

These scenarios are AWESOME! I'm not sure which one I like the best though 3 & 4 are kind of one awesome story all unto themselves :)

I don't actually go for it much myself but the idea of Puck and Finn using it as an excuse seemed funny :) I wish I was a writer. I have no trouble coming up with scenarios but I just don't have the knack for writing. Good thing for me that there are authors out there like you to fill the void with their good writing right? :)

Oh, you know Puck would be awful just to mess with Finn but the mohawk is off limits :)

The two of them could make-out while they are in the other's body...find out what their own appeal was ;)

[bluejbird]

:) Thanks! Sorry for spamming though! They turned out much longer than I anticipated!

You should put your idea on the kink_meme or something, and maybe we'll get some more Finn/Puck fic from people! Because the void really is ridiculously empty. I don't get why people aren't writing about these boys!

Finn and Puck making out while in each others bodies is genius, btw. And, like, it totally wouldn't count as gay like that, right? Since really they're just kissing themselves. ;)

[anonymous]

oh, don't apologize...long is good!

Believe me, I've put many Finn/Puck ideas out there and every once in a while they get picked up, but the stories out there are sadly lacking. Which make your stories even more of a treat :)

heh, yeah it doesn't count if it's really your own body..it's more like masturbation or at least that's how they could justify it ;)

[bluejbird]

Hehe, I'm trying really hard not to make a 'that's what she said' joke there. :)

I'm glad you're putting Finn/Puck ideas out there! Maybe one day soon there will be a revolution and we'll be drowned in Fuck fic. Who knows?

I reckon those boys would definitely justify that situation like that. And presumably when they switch back they'll find an excuse to justify carrying on too!

[dgcatanisiri]

Because the void really is ridiculously empty. I don't get why people aren't writing about these boys!

TELL ME ABOUT IT. I've left about thirty prompts in the kink meme, and only three or four of them are NOT for Finn/Puck. (Seriously, if you pick a prompt from the meme for Finn/Puck, there's probably about a 50/50 chance it's one of mine) It's enough that I filled one of them a while back and am now kicking around a sequel idea. My biggest problem, though, is that I can't write smut. If I could, I'd be filling the rest of my prompts too. *disgusted sigh* Almost every fandom I'm in, I fall for the underdog pairings, not the popular ones. Makes it almost impossible to find anything

[bluejbird]

I went looking for Finn/Puck prompts to write the other day, and it was disappointing how many of them aren't filled! I actually got excited when I came across one that was, until I realised that I'd filled it anonymously! LOL

[dgcatanisiri]

God, isn't Rachel difficult? I'm writing her in my sequel idea as an antagonist character (because she still wants Finn, even when he's with Puck), and I'm also trying to present her as still having something to her that is sympathetic, that she's not being intentionally malacious, just single-mindedly focused on Finn to the point of being unable to see that he belongs with Puck. And it's DIFFICULT. But when I wrote out her motivations and took it from Point A to B to C, it made sense and it felt (to me) as if, even if you didn't agree with her reasoning, you could understand it.

I do agree with you that the Kurt/Puck interactions we've seen have been more in the realm of out and out hostility and not acting on repressed homosexuality. If it is about repressed homosexuality, it's about Puck lashing out at the guy with the stones to actually be out and proud about it while Puck is too afraid of losing status to be honest about who he is. But there is no, IMO, attraction being acted out here.
