rdm-ationtumblr post This prompt. Being read aloud to is for little kids, and Finn is making a concerted effort to grow up, so he definitely doesn't indulge in it. Much. Well, Kurt has a nice voice, okay.

So the whole thing sounded kind of sappy... )

*ahem* As always, your Finn and Kurt dynamic is delightful. I love how sweet you make Finn without making him seem OOC or super dumb. Carole and Kurt interaction is always so very welcome and I adored the little bits here. The ending was absolutely perfect.

Also, you gave me Mechanic!Kurt and Hudmel brothers working at the garage together. So I am now obligated to love you forever. Sorry.
Basically. I'm squeeing like a fangirl and you should never stop writing the Hudmels. Ever.
And now I have an irrational and inexplicable need for audiobooks read by Chris Colfer...

OMG ME TOO THO. JSS and PP were huge parts of my childhood. Huge. Me gustan.
Also Kurt and Finn's weird mature/v. childish ways of behaving legit do the most interesting things together. Because like Kurt's more grown up, really, but... he can be so incredibly self-involved and Finn can be very aware of others and such a caretaker in this odd way, and just. It's a thing.
YOU MUST LOVE MEEEEE /evita
pls do though I love being loved it is superb
THAT WAS THE WORST PART OF WRITING THIS. I now need Colfer audiobooks and what are the odds of that happening?! But I NEED THEM ( ... )

I'm so so sorry for the late reply on this.
But anyway, I may or may not follow you on Tumblr (of which I am still a terrible, terrible noob, and don't really understand. I'm there for the beautiful, beautiful gifs. And the cool people that seem to just populate the dang place!) so I got the update when you posted it. And I don't sleep sometimes so the internet keeps me company at four in the morning
Insecurities are my fluff. Secretly. Just don't tell friendship or family; they'll just get jealous. XD
Oh themes. You haunt me. I was just writing a 5 +1 relationship piece and I snuck in an underlying general theme of "communication". I think this "theme" thing was ingrained by a childhood diet of children's television shows and Disney. It was obviously inevitable. That's why all our literature and media these days ends with so obviously and conveniently spelled out moral lessons, no? JSS were so much love. I wrote so many kiddie book reports on those stories in elementary school. ( ... )

THE INTERNET IS BEST FOR 4 a.m. COMPANY THO. Omg also okay who are you on tumblr, so I can follow back?! Because there are at least two people I can think of that it's like - I want to follow them back judging from the little that's there, but they've only posted two things and have no bio so I don't know that they're groovy. But if it's you then I do know you're groovy so.
COMMUNICATION IS MY FAVORITE THEME EVER
EVER
Also lol I should think a steady diet of any fiction worth its salt would instill a need for theme; it is pretty pointless to have fiction without a theme. I think the difference between, you know, most stuff and... Disney and whatnot is in subtlety, is all. That and - like. I think a good theme should be an observation, not a solution? You know? Like good stuff tends to have a theme like "war hurts people" whereas something more childish turns it from a theme into a moral and is like ( ... )

Your Finn is so, so great.
(It was even kind of condescending, so when Kurt read it, it sort of just sounded like Kurt telling a funny story the way he normally would only with more rhyming words. Ahaha. :D )
