Here from the rec post. I'm loving this so much! The hardest thing for me to get into was the premise, and you convinced me from the opening.

Blaine ducked his head, definitely blushing, and when he looked back up, his eyes were bright with affection. "Tell me about your mother, Kurt. I'll remember every detail. I promise." Ah, this just kind of killed me, how important it is to have someone who listens and remembers.

Wes's introversion after their first session, when Kurt asks about Blaine's flaws, sparked my curiosity. I wasn't sure why Wes thought Kurt would be pissed, though.

"When you're not here, it feels like I'm the only one that's really here." Oh, this was sad. I loved how the one emotion Blaine first expressed was something that haunted Kurt. Kurt's thoughts of stealing or rescuing Blaine worry me. So eager to read the next part!

I have to say that I hesitated to read this when I initially saw it posted because reading the summary I could only focus on how much potential it had to be angst and wrenching. I must say that I am now so glad I gave this a chance cuz it is amazing. I don't even care if it ends up ripping me to shreds emotionally. The journey will have been worth it.

OH MY GOD THE META THIS IS FANTASTIC.
I am in love! I have to run and can't read the next part but I'm just so excited! Awesome fic, awesome concept, awesome awesome awesomeee.

PS- Is it wrong of me to hope that Wes is basing this off of his friend from highschool and Blaine actually exists in the real world? Pretty please?

This ends happily? Oh god I have to keep going.
My heart aches for Kurt, but at the same time my brain can't stop yelling at him to not go there, haha. I have to say, you've really pulled me in to this premise that didn't feel quite right to me.

*reads on*

This fic... just... wow.

You have obviously written the characters beautifully because my heart aches for them.
Honestly, I don't get very emotional when reading fics (even if they're particularly heart-breaking) and I will say that I didn't cry while reading this (though I really felt like it), but I feel a great deal of sadness.
These lines, I still physically feel a dull ache in my chest from this these lines:

When it comes down to it, though, I've carried out the goal I had in mind when I started down this path.
The friend I grew up with wanted freedom. The freedom to live. The freedom to love.A feel a dull ache for Blaine, Human Blaine and Virtual Blaine, and an ache for Wes ( ... )
