Fic Help

Oct 08, 2011 13:52

I had visions of running errands and accomplishing lots of things outside the house this afternoon, but something I ate last night decided to disagree with me today, so looks like I'm not going anywhere for a while. (I don't think it's food poisoning, because I should've gotten sick within about six hours of eating, right?) So, time to work ( Read more... )

I liked the glimpse we got of Mercedes with her church choir in 'Grilled Cheesus'. Would if be crazy if she became a preacher? I think it would be cool if she did some kind of community based work through her church at least. That could allow Mercedes to sing a lot too without it being her main ambition.

I like your choices for the other kids future careers especially Finn and Artie. What are Kurt and Blaine doing in this verse? Sorry, I've not read 'Scholars & Gentleman'.

Ooh, Mercedes working for a church would have interesting plotty/theme-y implications...that could be fun to play with. :) And yeah, if part of her job involved music ministry, that would be a good way for her to still have music in her life.

Kurt and Blaine are both kind of in limbo. Blaine spends a good deal of this fic terrified that he's just spent years on a Ph.D. in History for nothing and that nobody is ever going to hire him as a professor. Kurt has a degree in Design and wants to have a job in that field, but for various reasons (actually, not really various--just one significant, very non-shippy reason) hasn't gotten to where he wants to be yet.

Ooooh. I like preacher Mercedes. That's awesome. I can just see her in some Madea-esque plays...

Santana would be a KILLER lawyer. Possibly literally :) Sam's is adorable and Artie would be awesome at Pixar.

Maybe have Mercedes do something in fashion merchandising? Or a nurse? I could see her being a really good nurse.

I could see Carole giving Kurt and Blaine a painting of some sort. I'm trying to think of the things we got for our wedding that meant the most, and the painting right above me right now is probably #1.

Oh, now Santana is so a prosecutor. She'd be damn scary. :)

Nurse could definitely work. I like that. Thank you!

You're awesome. Like crazy awesome.

Weirdly, I can imagine Carole giving them something hilariously practical in front of everyone (world's greatest toaster? that blender that can chop up golf clubs?) and then privately giving them, like, something that belonged to Christoper--something that says "No, seriously, you're my family, Burt or no Burt."

But wev. This is so exciting.

something that says "No, seriously, you're my family, Burt or no Burt."

That's exactly what I'm looking for. I think I've got an idea...

I love the idea she gives them something practical in front of everyone else. Oooh, if I wanted to be a little evil, that could be a coffeemaker! Carole and Mrs. Blaine's Mom get along really well, but I can't resist.
