Carry That Weight Master Post

Pairing: Primarily Blaine/Kurt; other minor background pairings.

Summary: When Blaine's friend Susan drags him to an American Idol audition, he's not even trying to get past the first round-- much less into the top ten. And after getting through Disco Week, avoiding the media, and dealing with his very absent parents ( Read more... )

So I know this is old, but it's also FUCKING FLAWLESS and I was completely heartbroken over forgetting to bookmark it the first time I read it. Luckily for me someone recced it on kurt_blaine and now it's kind of two in the morning and I'm just glorying in this. Mad respect for the work that must have gone into creating all the extras.

Wow, great story - I love how you managed to make the Idol experience seem very real (kudos on the Tumblr and Twitter comments, not to mention the Wikipedia page - that's true commitment!) and keep the Glee characters in character (so many times it just doesn't come together).
Great job!

Thank you so much! We had a lot of fun, coming up with those framing devices. :)

I just read the main story and I have to say it was amazing. I love how human the characters are. You portrayed Blaine so well, I'm glad he won. Nice verse and I'm gonna check out the side stuff you made for it!

i avoided reading this when it was recced all over the klaine comm b/c i just hate american idol. but then i read one of the mini-sequels and was blown away, not only by this lovely little universe you've created, but the sheer number of people telling me 'read this read this now now now.' and i totally see why- i sat down and devoured the entire thing on AO3 last night and it was so so worth almost falling asleep in class today. every character is just amazing, and i am a sucker for mixed media fics so those image manips were just <3333 all the awards, ever.

Thank you so much! I'm glad that you enjoyed it, and I hope you didn't get in trouble for almost falling asleep in class. :)
