Wow, this is...awesome in the most deliciously angsty way. I love the way you describe Quinn's emotions and how they passed into her cutting. Like she let all of her self hatred and anger out in that first cut...hence 'the first cut is the deepest'. I don't usually read fics like this for the obvious reason that cutting doesn't seem like something Quinn would ever do...but you make it totally believable and I understand why she would do it and why she feels the way she does. I'm going to stop rambling but this is really awesome. I hope you continue soon! :)

Yeah, I know it probably could be counted as an AU situation but I think actually it's one thing that hasn't been tackled on the show that I think they should touch upon, y'know? Glee focuses on so many topics and this is one I feel could be done very well on the show if they had the right state of mind to deal with it...

Haha, no need to stop rambling, I do it all the time :P Thank you so much for reading :)

Oh Quinn...this is beautifully written. The angst that you captured in her feelings and the pain that thinking about Rachel causes her is so very realistic. Quinn hates herself so very much and thinking about Rachel-she loves it and hates it at the same time. My heart is breaking for Quinn right now. That kind of love, the unrequited kind, can destroy a person. So well written. eager to read the next chapter.

Tell me about it. It's a terrible thing to experience and especially for someone like Quinn who's so... alone and who has been brought up in an environment where this kind of thing is shunned upon means it's particularly hard for her to go through.

I'm in the process of writing the next chapter as we speak, sorry for it taking so long but it's just that, although I know I want to continue writing this it's taken a while to really think about what direction I want to head in because I didn't originally plan on following it up I hadn't thought about that beforehand but I think I have the majority of it planned out now :)

Thank you for reading and commenting :3

You have to continue this because Rachel has to feel the same way!

I liked this, but it's so sad for now!

[faberry_ftw]

Well we'll have to see about that one won't we? Thank you for reading :)

So Angsty, but in a good way.

I'd be really interested to see where you take this if you continue.

Thank you so much :)

Poor Quinn. I just love how you described Quinn's emotions. Her self-hatred and how Rachel makes her feel. Even when Rachel makes her incredibly happy she is still so scared and angry and guilt ridden at what she is feeling.

The cutting part was a little hard to read, been there, but the way you described how it "cleansed," her was so well written.

I hope you continue on with the sleepover.

I'm glad you say that actually because I was worried people wouldn't quite... understand the whole cleansing thing, but I think it's quite a common reason for people to self-harm and definitely contributes to it for some people.

I hope it wasn't too hard for you to read though :( I know how it is and idk, sometimes it can be quite difficult for me to write as well, but yeah...

The sleepover is the chapter I'm writing now :D I have no idea how long it's going to take though but like I said before I'm on it. Thank you for reading and commenting :)
