artist claims
Welcome to Round Two's Artist Claims!
Claims are OPEN.
SECOND ROUND is OPEN.
Summaries are listed numerically to keep them anonymous. Artists, when claims open please comment in this thread with you top three untaken choices. If there are two or less choices available, you can just list two or even one choice. If a summary is already taken before you comment, please do not include it in your choices! If your first choice has already been taken, you will be awarded your second, and so on. If all three of your choices are already taken, you'll be asked to make a new list.
An example comment would look like:
1. 10
2. 1
3. 14
All claims are awarded on a first come, first serve basis: if the summary you really want is already claimed, then you're SOL. However, we want all of our summaries claimed! If a story you were rooting for is already taken, please take a look over all of them to see if anything else catches your interest! Stories will be crossed off as they're taken, but keep an eye on the comments as well--if you see someone has already commented with the story you want in their top slot, then they'll probably be getting it.
We still have fewer artists than authors, so it's a probability that once all artists participating have claimed their stories, I will allow artists to claim for a second time, choosing from the remaining available stories.
Now, without further adieu--the summaries!
EDIT: Please also include the username you signed up with, otherwise I won't be able to mark you down as having claimed. Thanks!!
1.
In the Aftermath of "The First Time" Sebastian takes care of Kurt with the help of Brittany and Santana. They decide to help Kurt along with deciding to break up with Blaine. At the same time Sebastian tries to show Kurt that he is desirable.
Warnings: angst, hurt/comfort, abusive relationship, attempted non-con, Blaine as the bad-guy.
2.
Burt has his heart attack towards the end of Kurt's sophomore year and dies from it, leaving Kurt orphaned. His family, unable to care for him, send him off to an international boarding school in Switzerland, where one of his ancestors is an alumni.
Meanwhile, Sebastian got into trouble once too often and gets kicked out of his school in Paris. Figuring that he won't be able to get into as much trouble in the middle of nowhere in the alps, his parents send him off to the same school as Kurt has been registered at.
The two get to talking after Sebastian misses a few Jazz Dance practice due to being sick and the teacher requests that Kurt get Sebastian caught up. Due to not being able to pick up various guys at school, Sebastian suggests a friends with benefits arrangement with Kurt, who just wants to feel wanted. As Kurt falls into deeper into depression, Sebastian starts to fall for Kurt.
Warnings: Character Death, Dub-Con, angst, hurt/comfort
3.
After getting rejected from NYADA, Kurt gets a job as a massage therapist at the Westerville country club to save up money so that he can move to New York. One afternoon he gets a new client-Sebastian Smythe, a wealthy lawyer who takes one look at Kurt and just has to have him, no matter how much it costs. Eventual Sugar Daddy!Sebastian fic. NC-17. AU after Season 3. Older/Younger relationship. Potentially may include light bondage or D/s themes and light crossdressing (kurt in lingerie is like crack to me).
4.
Sebastian Smythe and Kurt Hummel met when Sebastian started kindergarten. None of the other kids talked to him, calling him weird for being unable to speak. Kurt, however, was happy to befriend the boy and from that day onward, they were the absolute best of friends. Just because Sebastian was mute didn't mean he couldn't kick asses and take names; he and Kurt became exactly what each other needed at all points in their life. Now, they're nineteen, living as friends in New York and things are going just fine until Kurt meets that hobbit. God, Sebastian hates the stupid short person with curly hair; above all... Sebastian doesn't share, least of all his Kurt. AU, M, mentions of Kurt/Blaine, drink spiking.
5.
Sebastian's always hated not being in control. He's hated knowing who his soulmate is going to be and the only reason it's okay is most people meet their soulmates in their 20s. When Sebastian meets Kurt at Dalton that changes. He's not ready for a relationship but he doesn't want to hurt Kurt so they start an open relationship. When Kurt meets Blaine and starts falling for him that changes things for Sebastian and he realizes that he really does want Kurt all to himself. Soulmate AU. NC-17. Background pairing of Blaine/Kurt [nothing explicit between them]. Based on this prompt from the kink meme: http://glee-kink-meme.livejournal.com/36785.html?thread=48778929#t48778929"
6.
Wouldn't it be nice if we could decide whom we fall in love with?..
Sebastian: Ever since he started getting text messages from an unknown number, it becomes evident with every new text that the other person knows exactly who he was. Yet, even the creepy stalker factor wasn't enough to stop Sebastian from forming a real connection with a friend he only knows by written words. Or does he?
Kurt: Never the one to go down without a challenge, he anonymously starts texting to Sebastian Smythe, trying to find any weakness in his armour. But never was he prepared for the boy he got to know, or the feelings to grow stronger with each unopened message...
T-rated, initial Klaine, Kurtbastian endgame and lots and lots of texting~
7.
Sebastian already has his entire life planned out. He’s a first year medical student, part time dance teacher, and all he has to do is finish his degree and he’ll get out of Ohio, start training as a psychiatrist, and never look back. But while Sebastian is shadowing a family physician, he meets Kurt, a silent, grieving nine-year-old. The next week he has a new student in his Saturday morning dance class, one that heals and grows under Sebastian’s guidance and gets almost too deep under his skin. And at the end of his degree, Sebastian almost doesn’t leave.
He eventually learns not to miss Kurt. But then, four days after his thirtieth birthday, Sebastian’s sister is diagnosed with an inoperable tumour and his plans explode in a heartbeat. He sets up in Ohio as a newly-practicing psychiatrist, and one of his first referrals is possible somatoform pain disorder in a gay, bullied seventeen-year-old. A grown, terrifyingly beautiful seventeen-year-old that Sebastian had forgotten. Refusing to treat him isn’t enough; he’s under Sebastian’s skin, in his blood, and suddenly Sebastian would make deals with gods that don’t exist to save him. (Warning for minor character death and age difference.)
8.
Sebastian's move to Dalton is for one reason; the smells lingering there. Dalton harbours a smell that Sebastian hasn't smelt in one hundred and twelve years; that of the person to whom he belongs. The smell is burned into the campus, into his room, into the car park, and he is determined to find the person who created it. - Immortal!Sebastian, Human!Kurt, kind-of-soulmate!AU
9.
After a few chance encounters in New York, Kurt and Sebastian become reluctant friends. Just when
things start moving in a different direction Adam returns from England. Sebastian assumes the worst, has he ruined his chances for good? M for language (maybe NC-17 not sure yet). Kurt/Adam-past relationship
10.
When Mr Shuester urges the New Directions to participate in a project at Dalton that strives to have other schools adapt the no-bullying policy, they can't help but meet the Warblers, who they know from previous competitions, once again. Kurt and Sebastian have long established that they can't stand each other, but with Wes and Rachel suddenly being very interested in each other and the two show choirs planning to make Kurt and Sebastian fall in love while Finn desperately tries to get Rachel back, their feelings towards each other are about to change. AU, loosely based on Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing. PG-13, includes apart from Kurtbastian obviously Weschel, s2-canon-typical ND-couples and might-be-interpreted-as-a-couple Niff.
11.
After his rejection from NYADA, Kurt still finds himself in New York City with Rachel, interning at Vogue alongside Isabelle Wright. Within his first week he has a run-in with Sebastian Smythe who works on the floor above and seems to make it his mission to make Kurt's life a living hell. After an afternoon spent trapped in an elevator together leaves their relationship much more complicated than Kurt ever expected, Kurt struggles to keep up with work at Vogue and attempts to have a normal dating life all while trying to ignore Sebastian's advances; though after awhile it's hard for Kurt to remember why he turned him down in the first place. NC-17, age difference, minor kadam and klaine.
12.
It started as a safe way to relieve his tension. A site that offered local, live shows of guys instead of the overly acted porn films. It seemed like the perfect thing to keep him from falling back into bed with Blaine. Except, it’s Sebastian’s webcam show that he comes across. Complicated by the fact that the new Sebastian Smythe is just as intriguing as the webcam version, things get awkward and intense fast. Kurt’s not sure of his feelings, Sebastian is new to everything, and neither one is sure what to do. NC-17. Some mentions of past Klaine. Masturbation, exhibitionism, voyeurism, dirty talk, cybersex, malexmale sex. Other pairings Jeff/Nick and Hunter's obsession with his cat. ;)
13.
When Kurt moved to Dalton for his safety, he decided to make the best of a bad situation. He might be losing all of his friends, but at least he could choose who his new classmates met. These boys didn't know him, they didn't see him as "the gay kid." He could be anyone he wanted to be. But who he chose to be, who Sebastian Smythe met, isn't the real Kurt Hummel.
14.
Sebastian Smythe is eight years, four months, six days, ten hours, and twenty-four minutes old when he discovers that he possesses an extraordinary gift: the ability to wake the dead with the single touch of the fingertip. Nineteen years, four months, twenty days, five hours, and six minutes later, Kurt Hummel, Sebastian's childhood sweetheart, comes back into his life in the worst possible way: dead. The problem? Once Kurt is awoken, Sebastian can never touch him again.
(AU based on Pushing Daisies, T, other pairings include minor Santana/Brittany, warnings for temporary character death and minor character death)
15.
Six years ago Kurt and Sebastian spent a whole summer together, fell in love and broke each other's hearts, before Sebastian left the country to take up his father's business. Kurt went into fashion and wrote a few bestsellers. Now he is dating Blaine Anderson and planning on spending the rest of his life with the man, when suddenly Sebastian Smythe, Blaine's new business partner, appears out of nowhere and jeopardizes all of Kurt's plans. AU, R, other pairings include Blaine/Kurt, Finn/Rachel, Puck/Quinn, and Mercedes/Sam.
16.
When Kurt is over the edge of another break down - the last months have been living hell to him - and he egoistically can’t stand that he’s the only one from the glee club who doesn’t have a date at Mercedes and Mike’s wedding, the most unexpected person comes to save him.
Warnings: NC-17, bottom!Sebastian, I guess, hooking up, from sex to feelings, mentions of antidepressants and pills.
17.
10 Things I Hate About You AU: Thanks to their overprotective father, pretty and popular Quinn isn't allowed to date until her brother does. The problem? Kurt is a smart-mouthed social outcast and the only gay guy at McKinley High. When Sam moves into town and immediately falls for Quinn, it becomes his mission to find a guy to woo Kurt, and the enigmatic (and slightly scary) Sebastian seems to be the best man for the job.
18.
Noah Puckerman, New York's punk scene king, was the manager of a club of growing fame named Flight. The music was loud, the atmosphere dirty and the bathroom never did quite seem to get clean despite the always full club and Sebastian's knowledge that Noah was very well off. Despite all those things the Ohio born lawyer found himself there every couple of weeks to drown in the promise of free booze, perks of being friends with the owner, and the mind numbing music that seemed to clear all thoughts from Sebastian's mind. It was a safe place to just be, until a certain grunge band catches Sebastian's interest, or to be more clear a certain lead singer. Sebastian is out and proud but as a Smythe is held to higher standards and expected to carry on the line of marrying a higher status male but there is something intoxicating about how one minute Kurt Hummel can be the most confident singer on a stage and the next be a pale faced angel with the tendency to blush at just Sebastian's gaze.
Warnings: Smut and lots of it, Cigarettes, mention of weed, Anxiety, a brief touch on depression.
19.
Rating: R-NC17 (I haven't totally decided if I should incorporate smut scenes because that has never my strong point in writing.)
Warnings: Vague to explicit mentions of sex, possible violence. AU setting, possibility of a number of characters to be a little (or a lot) OOC.
Summary: Mob AU. With Kurt facing the possibility of losing his father he decided to step into the world he had never before seen, catching the eyes of two men who are willing to sacrifice lives to finally claim him as his. Kurtbastian end, Sebastian/Kurt/Blaine love triangle.
20.
After yet another failed audition Mercedes convinces Kurt to move to California and try his luck in Hollywood. That's where he meets Sebastian 'Goofy' Smythe, a local surfer, who loves life, sex, and catching waves. It's just a summer fling, they agree, but between Sebastian's attentiveness and the amount of time Kurt starts spending at the surf shop, it's getting harder and harder for Kurt to separate reality from wishful thinking. Which means it's probably a good thing when he gets a phone call from his agent in New York… or is it?
21.
After the world's government has crashed, the world becomes hostile. Those who have soul bonded hide in fear, those who haven't have to travel the dangerous streets to find their matches. Those who have lost their matches have turned to end pain and misery by killing the unpaired so the pain doesn't hurt quite so much. Can Kurt and Sebastian, who are only 20 blocks apart ever meet? Or will their camps keep them separated just enough that in one of the crossfires one will fall victim to Death's hand?
22.
There are things in life that are certain. For example: Kurt is a costume designer and wardrobe consultant. He is married to Sebastian, who is a dancer in a local studio. They have a beautiful daughter named List, and she is the light of their lives. Kurt and Sebastian will be together forever.
Except life isn't certain. The only thing that is?
Nothing will ever be the same.
