This story is amazing. The ending, where Blaine dreams about what he would say to his twelve year old self, genuinely made me cry. All the build up through this chapter and this story that led to that moment. Just wow.
And the whole story was fantastic too. I know this review isn't the most coherent- goodness knows I'd love to sit down and list everything that made this story amazing- but literally the only words I can find are 'amazing', 'fantastic', 'powerful' etc. So yeah, not so coherent but I loved every word of this story.
Thank you so much for sharing it with us! I saw you mentioned maybe writing one-shots in this verse, and if you do get round to writing them I know I'd love to read them! Thank you so much again- this was such a pleasure to read!
Thank you for commenting, and don't worry, I don't mind non-coherence! :p There are no one shots in the works just yet, but I'm definitely still thinking of doing it.
I can't wait to read it all again from the beginning - once or twice I've been all "wait ... what?" and then I realized that I'd missed an update and have to go back. So often I don't read WIPs because a lot of authors seem to forget their focus, and there's plot, but on the whole it doesn't advance in the same satisfying way. I think that might be why I've enjoyed this so much - you really seemed to be moving everything to the end, in an engaging way

First of all I do apologise for the late reply. It's been a busy summer, and I'm not very good at keeping up with LJ anymore.
To answer your question about Blaine's dad's family. It's not based on any actual real event (thankfully, I'd say), and I admit to not knowing very much about how hospitals work, especially American ones that aren't Seattle Grace (Grey's Anatomy), so call that writer's license, or an "oops" if you like. :) (I'd say "It's Glee" if the fic hadn't been going for a more realistic tone than the show itself does.)
I see what you mean. I do feel like the story is over, which is why I abandoned the sequel idea. I felt like I would've had to undo some of the character development to get a new story going, and I wasn't keen on that. I've been engrossed in my own original writing this summer, so I haven't thought about this verse much, but I do still feel like it's likely that I will return to it at some point. We'll see.
This is one of the most amazing stories I have read. I read the entire second part with tears in my eyes; it's been a really, really tough journey for Blaine, and for your readers as well. I'm very happy that you will be giving us some one-shots later on.
