Fic: Painted on my Skin (Part 2)

[phantomofarose]

After that day, Kurt ended up texting Blaine, after a lot of debate. It ended up that Blaine was the first to text Kurt, just after he'd gotten back home with Italian.

I hope I didn't get you in too much trouble.

Kurt smiled and texted him back.

Of course not. I bribed my roommate with vegan friendly Italian and she's forgotten it already. ;)

Well I'

I really like this AU, what with Lauren and artist Blaine and COURAGE! Thanks so much for sharing it.

[phantomofarose]

Yes yes, I'm quite partial to artist Blaine myself :) And I've been missing Lauren so much she worked her way into this fic!

I can't stop crying.

This is one of the most beautiful AU I've ever read.

oh my goodness I love this. I literally could not hold back the squeals multiple times through reading it. I loved Kurt/Lauren friendship and how happy Kurt/Blaine were together and those boys are so meant to be and COURAGE! <3 So pretty and happy and lovely. Thank you for sharing!!

I'm actually crying from this fic.

It was so beautiful.

I've been planning on a COURAGE tattoo on my left wrist for over a year, but now l really want a rainbow COURAGE tattoo.

All the feels!

Oh wow! That's so awesome that you've been wanting to get a Courage tattoo - oh my gosh. If you ended up getting a rainbow Courage tattoo, I would probably cry. I know it's probably been thought of before, but I just really loved the idea/picture in my head I ended up coming up with. If you do get that tattoo, don't hesitate to send a photo my way! <3 Thank you for reading!

Rose,

I am getting that rainbow 'Courage' tattoo.

I seriously took a nap this afternoon, and dreamed that l had it done. The end of the word turned into a real silk ribbon, and l kept twirling it around, making my hands dance in the air.

I've kept the term 'courage' as my personal motto for over a year now. Stuck to my school books, little bracelets that spell it, painted up on my wall. Reminding me to keep trying for just one more day. It has helped me so much in fighting my soul-sucking depression.

I've always wanted the word tattooed on my wrist. Left, because left-handed. But l always hesitated at the idea of using black ink. I couldn't figure out the mental block behind it.

So thank you for solving it for me! I've decided to get it upon graduating Year 12, so hopefully by my 21st in October. I even plan to get it in the same font as that second piece of fan art.

I'll be sending you pictures of course, and putting up a post in kurt_blaine about it, thanking you for your inspiration!

Wow. Completely moved. It's so amazing to see a connection to one word or phrase, you know? I can't wait to see the tattoo! I'm sure it will be a liberating experience. And I'm also turning 21 in October - on the 21st! Small world :)
