I love it. I only recently discovered how much I like ace fic, and seeing it in my new fic obsession, glee, was awesome.

I was a little nervous at first, mainly because you chose Kurt for the asexual character. Considering the dangerous habit the media has of trying to turn gay male characters asexual to make them family friendly, I was a little concerned. But it turned out to be really good. :D

[grimcognito]

Thanks! I like to think that there is more awareness going around about the Ace community, and I'm glad to help that happen.

Thanks for reading despite your hesitations, and I'm glad you liked it!

[grimcognito]

Oh, by the way. Do you happen to have any reccomendations for other Ace fics? I would love to read more.

There's an asexual tag at AO3, and there's currently 59 stories archived under it. A lot of them are about SHerlock Holmes, but there's several other fandoms as well. I specifically recommend the Luna Lovegood one, as short as it is, and the Pride and Prejudice one.

I adored this, if only because I love the prospect of asexuality. I liked how you pulled it off, and I especially liked Puck's attitude towards Kurt's confession.

"I can find sex anywhere-“ / “I don’t share, Puck.” / “I know that, and if you had let me finish, you would know that I can find sex anywhere, but there’s only one of you.”
This bit of dialogue had to be one of the most enjoyable for me, because it reinforces the fact that while Kurt may be asexual, he's not going to be cool with Puck rushing off to Santana whenever the fancy strikes.

Finally, I think the real treat in all of this (besides the cute fluff) was Puck's newfound kink. And I loved how Kurt described it--"I’d like to see what it does to you, what I can do to you even if I don’t want to get off myself. I want to make you happy”--if only because it's a bit how I feel.

But enough personal share-time. Thank you so much for posting this; just as awesome as I'd hoped! (:

*is blushing* Thanks! I'm so glad it went well with all of the readers! I wanted to show that just because people are asexual, doesn't mean they hate sex, or ignore it altogether. It's all about compromise.

Thanks for reading and giving such a positive response!

[lezi]

Yeah, I think you definitely showcased the heart of a relationship: giving and getting and compromising to come to a conclusion that satisfies both sides. And you did it so tastefully and beautifully. :D

You're more than welcome; I just hope you plan on writing more--if not for asexual!Kurt/Puck, then for Puck/Kurt as a whole. ♥♥

This was so awesome. Like super awesome.
Man okay, so if you write one where Kurt uses a dildo on Puck... I will fangasm forever about you. :)

[grimcognito]

Thanks! And perhaps there will be more, if I can manage to write it plausibly. As I said, I'm extremely new to writing anything remotely smutty.

[bookstorequeer]

Awwwww. So proud of Puck for stepping up and you made it a happy ending! *snuggles you* Yay! Now ya just gotta write the sequel where we see them getting it on *pokepoke* Great job, dahlink! That was so sweet.

[grimcognito]

Thank you! I'm glad I got so many postitive responses! As for a sequel... maybe. ;)

[grimcognito]

Completely understandable, and thank you for reading!
