Yeah, she really does need a hug, doesn't she?

I'm so glad you enjoyed - there's more coming, hopefully soon! :)

That was truly beautiful in a quiet, unsettled, and brooding way. The internal conflicts you've given to Rachel (guilt for lusting after a troubled friend, uneasiness even after getting all she wanted) and Quinn (guilt for letting Beth go, realization of how empty her life was even pre-Beth, etc.) makes for a compelling read. I think I know what you mean when you say your writing style kinda deviates from your past work - maybe it's this quiet, thoughtful tone that you achieve with less dialogue. More than that, it seems to me that this could have really happened on the show (that is, if the show's writers had even the smallest amount of talent you have).

Anyways, you did a gorgeous job. Thanks for sharing it!

*blushes* Thank you very much! I'm really glad that it came across so well, and that it seemed like it could fit in canon - trying to keep things roughly canonical is a new experience for me, and I'm really happy that it worked.

Thanks so much, again, for reading, and for your lovely comments! :)

The end had me rolling my eyes and laughing at the same time.
This completely amazing. I don't know why but I feel drawn to it, I think it's the many emotions that are just running wild through it, they kinda just pull you in.
I can't help but think if Glee was more of a drama than a comedy and the writers were as good as you they could have taken this route with Quinn's storyline, and it seems like because of Rachel's persistent personality she would be the only one to notice. I love your writing on this, it's really awsome and I do hope you continue it :)

Ah, Finn - always a good source of humor, isn't he? :D

Thanks so much! :) Yeah, I really hoped this season would deal with post-Beth Quinn, but the writers seem to have ignored it altogether instead.

There's another chapter in the works, so hopefully soon! :D Thanks so much for reading! :)

Oh Glee, this is such a great start, I'm loving it. Nice take on how Beth and giving her up could affect Quinn if she wasn't doing the whole repression thing she seems to be doing on the show (and I'm probably giving the writers too much credit there).

Thanks so much! :) I'm so glad you're enjoying it - and yeah, I think that's giving the writers too much credit, lol. :)

Wow. Wow. Wow.

How I wish we could go back in time and Glee use this storyline instead. As a fan of Glee and Quinn, I see her character changed through the episodes... and this is the most justifiable or maybe most sensible story that should've happened next. Thank you for this.

You did great. I read this word for word (which I don't usually do haha). I could feel Quinn's sadness and longing and gahhhh. This is just so great. Please continue?

Aww, thank you - you're much too kind! :) I'm so glad that you enjoyed it, and there's more coming, hopefully soon! :D
