Oh, Blaine! I'm so glad he has the Hudmels. And Finn figured out he was an idiot. And hugs all around.

I'm glad too, the Hudmels are wonderful. <3 Aw,I know, I like making Finn do stupid things! YES. <3

God dammnit - I was 'first comment' cockblocked by my ridiculously tempermental internet.

I love love loved this chapter.

Finn's guilt was perfect, especially that you brought Puck into it. In my head, Puck's equivalent of Blaine's flinching away when he gets startled was to lash out, and hit people before they could hit him.

I really liked the scene in the changing room as well. The fact that until now he's never been able to think about or look at his body without it being in someway related to his father and his secrets...

Aargh, I made spelling mistakes. This upsets me.

[bellax_xmuerte]

Ugh. Stupid internet. I actually find it super strange when you're not first now! :P

Thank you, I'm glad you loved it. <3

Ohhh, that's pretty much my head!canon too! I'm never writing about what Puck's situation actually was... but in my head he expressed his feelings in a physical way, lashing out etc.. beacuse it just sounds so damn Puck.

Yeah, I've been thinking about Blaine and his sexuality and how he sees himself because he's thinkng about Kurt a lot lately. It made sense in my head- that he'd never have been comfortable enough for self-exploration or feeling sexy with himself, at all. Living and trying to keep things hidden had always been higher on his list of things to do... obviously he doesn't have to worry about that so much now. :)

"Sometimes living here, in this house, is hard for me, I’ve gone from being completely alone to being completely surrounded, but it’s a hardship that I’m more than happy to face, these hard times are constantly overwhelmed by love and when that happens life has never seemed so beautiful to me. I remember what Puck said to me, he told me that love heals, he told me that I have to find love, any kind of love, and cling to it. "

Sometimes it amazes me how much we take for granted in our lives.

Such a lovely chapter!

[bellax_xmuerte]

Thank you so much. We do take a lot for granted and when you step back and look it's actually pretty mind blowing. <3
