Collected from various locations, including Tumblr and a few different comms, because I was out late last night after the episode getting someone from the airport but I needs to get my meta on:

By now I actually know what to expect, Klaine wise, out of the 3 writers. Brad writes Kurt centric episodes featuring Blaine. Expect everything Blaine does to be about Kurt or for Kurt. Screen time will be slightly equal to less than Kurt. Because of this expect the more knowledgeable side of Blaine to come out and Kurt to be vulnerable but brilliant in his own way.

Ian writes 1 primary Klaine scene. We might get snippets of them in the BG, but nothing significant. The moment is a wild card. It can be flirty, them as friends or not even about them at all. He writes them more as equals than Brad. He tends to explore the friendship side of their relationship and the different ways it show. We get to see a snarkier side of the boys when done by Ian.

RM writes them as a couple hands down. It takes a more romantic light when he writes them (hence why I know he'll be doing prom, it's a Klaine date!) He writes the more teenage side of Blaine, a kid just like Kurt who needs him just as much. Kurt ends up taking the reigns when on these episodes (unlike Brad who gives Blaine the reigns, it balances out in the big picture). You could say RM combines the friendship aspect of Ian with the more mature sensibility of Brad and adds a touch of sweetness and cuteness to them as a couple.

Yup, I think that pretty much sums it up. RM is by far my favorite writer for Kurt/Blaine, as my favorite moments for them (as a couple) were in SLS and OS.

I've like the fun friendshippy relationship Ian writes (at times), and I adore the way that Brad seems to reiterate how Kurt is the most important person in the world to Blaine. I feel like I get the most caring from him.

But I kind of think that RM is the only one who really writes for Blaine. As in not for Blaine, who is Kurt's boyfriend, but Blaine who is a character all on his own.
