Title: Season 3: Chance of a Lifetime
Author: elektra30
Spoilers: Up till 2x22, but may incorporate bits of S3 canon beyond chapter 14.
Rating: PG-13
Pairings: Artie/Tina (with some Tina/Mike), Kurt/Blaine, Puck/Quinn, Finn/Rachel, Brittany/Santana, Sam/Mercedes, Will/Emma
Warnings: Mild profanity and mild violence (mentions of aftermath, but no explicit details). Otherwise, mostly in line with what Glee gets away with on the telly.
Summary: New Directions start a new year at McKinley with a final bid to clinch victory at Nationals. But along the way, new arrivals and incidents are always ready to make things difficult. S3 AU; S2-compliant
Disclaimer: The Glee verse is FOX and RIB's to own, though I claim credit for OCs and plot.
A/N: Artina gets almost-equal (maybe slightly more) screentime with the other pairings, much like how it works on Glee. Episodes alternate with character interludes. Here's a snippet:
"...you got Mike and I got Britt and I thought, hey, we're in our happy places now, you know? There's no giant elephant in the room anymore."
"We loved them."
"But there's always something missing, Tee. I don't know what, but I feel like... I feel like there's only one time when I really felt like everything was alright, and that was with you."
