Esra's fic pick for the week:
and i understand (that some things take so long), by
ohladybegood (Puck/Quinn, R)
Why she loved it: This week my heart belongs to
ohladybegood for the fic and i understand (that some things take so long).
This gives us the missing story on what happened between Puck and Quinn after Sectionals and before "Hell-O." It's very well-written, and while its not a LOLZ!fic, it does make you chuckle... especially when you learn that the most watched TV program in [the Puckerman] house is Whose Line Is It Anyway. Puck and Sarah have taken to assigning points to random things that happen during the day. This morning Quinn won two-thousand points for saying the word shit when she tripped on her way down the stairs.
The characterization of Quinn is just perfect. I tend to find her to be OC in most fics, but here she is spot-on. Best of all, Puck and Quinn aren’t suddenly happy in love now that the truth is out. The relationship is gradual; it moves from Puck trying to get his hand up her skirt under the table to Puck just holding her hand under the table.
Now, I want you all to read the fic and give it some feedback!
Congrats,
ohladybegood ! Your banner is forthcoming. Please accept our IOU with hugs and admiration. This mod is also a HUGE fan of yours!
Two notes for everyone else:
1.)
Our birthday contest is still accepting entries through the 13th. We've been a bit disappointed with the turnout so far, although the few stories submitted have been stellar. Get a story in soon for the chance to win a prize!
2.) Esra and I are in the process of revising our comm rules, since they haven't really had an overhaul since she and I took over the reins. Keep an eye out for the new info on our profile page in coming days.
Enjoy "Bad Reputation" tomorrow, guys! We'll have a new fic pick for you next week. ♥
