Fun With Other People's Words Part 22 -- THE FANFIC EDITION  


Welcome to

Fun With Other People's Words - THE FANFIC EDITION!!!

Exciting! A long time in the making!

A billion thanks to all of the authors that let me use their words for this. I was so nervous asking each one of you and you were all so nice and I did many victory dances.

Thank you to:
[info]rainjoyswriting, [info]iknowitainteasy, [info]emilianadarling, [info]a_glass_parade, [info]firefly_ca, [info]stoney321, [info]judearaya, and [info]anxioussquirrel.


Warnings: These rate from G to NC-17, and each section will have its own warnings preceding it, along with a link to each fic.

Note: Some of the passages used were edited for length and the bits between spoken dialogue was cut out. In those cases, the full scene is added underneath the picture.








Part 1: [info]rainjoyswriting - Fix; R
Author's summary: He has - god, his grin is wolfish and wicked and somehow, in the bright darkness of his eyes, sweet.
Author's warning: A sort of jumbled up rerun of season two, so expect spoilers sprinkled liberally throughout, though canon timelines have been bounced around a lot. Warnings-wise, oh hi it's a rerun of season two, so if anything *mildly* squicked you about season two, expect that but harsher. Not written for kids, not expecting kids to read it.


MY WARNING: Bullying





















Part 2: [info]iknowitainteasy - Little Numbers; PG-13
Author's summary: Blaine sends a text message to a wrong number by accident. Things progress from there.
Author's warning: Can contain insane amounts of fluff, sillyness and snark.






















Part 3: [info]emilianadarling - Until My Dying Breath; NC-17
Author's summary: On his way home from campus to his apartment on the Upper East Side, Blaine Anderson happens to come across a beautiful young man with bewitching blue eyes. It doesn’t take long, though, for everything Blaine thought was real to fall to pieces. For his world to dissolve into a twisted dance of fear and heat and blood.
Author's warning: Vampire AU with all the unpleasantness that entails. Violence, grotesque descriptions, dark setting, fear, minor past character death.


MY WARNING: Use of FAKE crime scene photos.





















Part 4: [info]a_glass_parade - Nothing's So Loud; PG-13 - R
Author's summary: Blaine Anderson is the easy going skateboarding slacker who's carried a torch for sheltered class Valedictorian Kurt Hummel for the last year. On the day they graduate from high school, he decides to do something about it. There's no way they should work. Everything will conspire against them. Can this unlikely pairing prevail?
Author's warning: Mentions of attempted suicide.


Note: [info]a_glass_parade wished to be credited as Lissa Angeline, so she was.

There is no mention of attempted suicide in this set.






“We did! We totally went on a date.” He sat up and slurped at his Slushie before using it to gesture at his friends. “We ate together at Lima Mall. In the food court. That's a date.”

“That is so not a date, Blaine,” Quinn scoffed. “It's not even a scam.”

“You just sort of ate...near him,” Jeff pointed out as he ambled over to Quinn's stereo.

















Part 5: [info]firefly_ca - Looking For a Happy Ending; NC-17
Author's Summary: Blaine Anderson hasn't been Blaine Anderson for 8 years. He doesn't remember much about his old family and his life before he moved in with the man he calls his father. Together they move from town to town, always drifting before Blaine can get too familiar with his surroundings. Then one day they end up in Lima, Ohio, and Blaine finds himself questioning everything he thought he knew.
AUTHOR'S WARNING: - Child abduction
- Non-con
- Sexual/Physical/Emotional/Child abuse
- Prostitution/Sexual exploitation of a minor
- ...Incest adjacent?
- Drug/Alcohol abuse
- Some language
- Violence
- Suicidal behaviour
- Internalized homophobia
- Bullying
- Inspired by real events


MY WARNING: MENTIONS OF SUICIDAL THOUGHTS.





















Part 6: [info]stoney321 - Where There's Smoke; PG-13 - NC-17
Author's summary: Fireman AU, set 7 years after graduation. Kurt is Kurt, except that he never met Blaine Anderson. Blaine grew up in Brooklyn with his mother and firefighter father. Rachel and Kurt have graduated NYADA, Kurt gained a Masters from Tisch, and now they're in their first post-college apartment together ready to tackle their dreams. Unfortunately, Rachel never learned how to properly cook and almost sets their new house on fire. Enter Dreamy McFirepants.
Author's warning: None, really, aside from future mentions of homophobic treatment by a parent (I never use slurs. Never.)





Rachel leaned her head out of the doorway and affixed Kurt with a droll expression. “Do you want me to go there, Kurt? Because I will so go there.” She jutted her hip out and pointed her hairbrush at Kurt's face. “You said you wanted him to come back and save you.”

Kurt sputtered, “I did not! I just meant...oh, god!” Kurt covered his face with both hands with a groan. “Did I? I don't know what has gotten into me, he just... I don't have a damsel in distress thing, I don't. It's just...curls! And those pants. And that smile, please tell me you noticed that smile?”
















Part 7: [info]judearaya - Inside These Lines; PG-13 - NC-17
Author's summary: In the wake of Kurt’s mistakes, both men struggle to fix their relationship and move past what’s happened. They learn the hard way, though, that forgiveness takes more than forgetting, that trust requires more than just time to rebuild.
Author's warning: I've been told by my ladies that this story is very angsty, but I promise it has a happy ending. It's a bit of a haul, as this story covers a year of their lives.


MY WARNING: This story deals with the subject of infidelity, and though this set of pictures doesn't explicitly come out and talk about it, they do deal with the aftermath of a cheating partner.






“Will hurting me make you feel better?” His hand is open on the warm expanse of Blaine’s back. Blaine turns his face from where it’s buried in the pillow, keeping his eyes shut against the bright sunlight.

“No. I don’t know. I wish something would.” Blaine winces, the honesty is unexpected and he regrets it when Kurt’s hand flinches away. He can’t look, can’t look up into the too bright room and see what he’s doing to Kurt, but he hears it in Kurt’s voice which is a little strangled in a way that Blaine knows means tears.















Part 8: [info]anxioussquirrel - Husbandly Duties; NC-17
Author's summary: Kurt and Blaine have never had sex. They haven't even discussed having sex. Now they're getting married.
Author's warning: This story was a fill on glee-kink-meme. I started writing it on a whim and it turned into a dystopia AU with arranged marriages. However, even if you cringe at the words dystopia, arranged marriages or baby-penguin Kurt, give this story a chance. It’s a tale about best friends, budding love and intimacy, building trust and overcoming obstacles together. There’s no dub-con/non-con and it ends happily.


MY WARNING: Possibly NSFW. A bit of skin is shown, but no bits south of the equator.


















THE END!


THIS TOOK HOURS TO POST, OMG. OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG. PLEASE DON'T LET THE BANDWIDTH EXCEED TWO MINUTES INTO ME POSTING THIS. I WILL DIE. I. WILL. DIE. Posted now through lj's scrapbook. Click to embiggen.

Here they are on tumblr.

Sarah_Rose660: Blaine - Glee[info]sarah_rose660 on January 26th, 2012 07:46 pm (UTC)
Oh, these are gorgeous! I haven't read the fic that the first set it based on - I think I'll go correct that :D
Tootsie_Megagirl[info]t_megagirl on January 26th, 2012 08:07 pm (UTC)
Yes! Read that fic and then all of the sequels and then ALL OF THE REST OF THE FIC THERE. It is all sooo good.
amordemealma: gay high five[info]amordemealma on January 26th, 2012 10:15 pm (UTC)
so I've read and fallen in love with most of these before, so when I saw little numbers which I have not read being promoted in the ranks of stories such as fix and Until my dying breath which are just...'oh my god yes" I decided that I probably should be reading it. and it was fabulous. so thank you for the rec. Also, these are so glorious. I always liked these and then to do it for some of the best fan fic we have was such a brilliant Idea.

(actually the only other one I haven't finished/ caught up on is Nothing so Loud, and I've been working on that in the last couple of weeks....)
verdandil: FT_stagekiss[info]verdandil on January 26th, 2012 11:34 pm (UTC)
This is glorious.
Kayla Gregson: glee • blaine; the first rule[info]dazzlebug on January 27th, 2012 12:11 am (UTC)
These are just beautiful; absolutely gorgeous in their own right and also a great way of spreading the word about great fics! Some of them are ones I'm currently reading but now I have a few more, too! Thank you :D
Tootsie_Megagirl[info]t_megagirl on January 27th, 2012 05:35 pm (UTC)
Thank you!!
nikki_holly[info]nikki_holly on January 27th, 2012 04:05 am (UTC)
...the bandwidth was exceeded. :( I WANNA SEE!
Tootsie_Megagirl[info]t_megagirl on January 27th, 2012 05:35 pm (UTC)
I'm going to try to fix it tonight!
Tootsie_Megagirl[info]t_megagirl on January 28th, 2012 05:35 pm (UTC)
They're fixed now!
nikki_holly[info]nikki_holly on January 28th, 2012 07:58 pm (UTC)
YAY! and they're so good! i really liked this, and it introduced me to some new fics!
Tootsie_Megagirl[info]t_megagirl on January 28th, 2012 08:15 pm (UTC)
Thank you!
camillo1978[info]camillo1978 on January 27th, 2012 03:55 pm (UTC)
Oh, Photobucket. I'm afraid your all out of bandwidth.

Its just as easy, and a lot more reliable, to upload the pics to a livejournal gallery and embed the link from there. If you don't want them associated with your account for any reason, you can create an image journal the same as people create fic journals/comms for themselves.
Tootsie_Megagirl[info]t_megagirl on January 27th, 2012 05:35 pm (UTC)
I can't do that right at this moment, but I will try later tonight. I never even thought of that.
camillo1978[info]camillo1978 on January 27th, 2012 06:17 pm (UTC)
I've been and had a look on Tumblr. The ones up there are lovely, and it's a really fun idea.

Hope you find the time, but please don't be stressed about it.
Tootsie_Megagirl[info]t_megagirl on January 28th, 2012 04:50 pm (UTC)
So, I uploaded the pics to the scrapbook thing on lj, but I have no idea if that's what you meant, and I have no idea how to embed them into my post from there! I will try to google it to figure it out!
Talented and amusing ego-maniacal shit-heel: binary joke [withoutwords][info]stoney321 on January 28th, 2012 05:32 pm (UTC)
Go to your scrapbook and click on the picture you want to display - make sure it's the only image on the page, and not your journal with the picture on it. You should have something like pics.t_megagirl.livejournal.com/blahblah.jpg (or .png) Copy the URL.

On your post, put: <*img-src="the url.jpg"*> but take out the two *

That should load the picture. (this is old school HTML, which is what LJ uses.)
Tootsie_Megagirl[info]t_megagirl on January 28th, 2012 05:37 pm (UTC)
Thanks! They're all back up now!
camillo1978[info]camillo1978 on January 29th, 2012 02:26 am (UTC)
Hi there,

You should be able to use the insert image option/icon in your livejournal post and choose the option "from scrapbook" or "from gallery". You then browse thru the scrapbook to find the right file and then LJ inserts all the required html automatically. If you preview the post you can see the image displayed at the default size, and a click-through is automatically included so people can view it fullsized if they like. A bit of additional html code will let you specify the size the image is shown at in your post.
camillo1978[info]camillo1978 on January 29th, 2012 02:35 am (UTC)
Hi there,

Ooh looky, you're there already. Verrry cool.

Thank you hugely for prompting me to read Looking for a Happy Ending.
Tootsie_Megagirl[info]t_megagirl on January 29th, 2012 05:33 pm (UTC)
I love that fic so much! (Obviously!) And it has a sequel that is still being written!
anxioussquirrel[info]anxioussquirrel on January 29th, 2012 01:24 pm (UTC)
Thank you, thank you, thank you so much!!!<3

These are all amazing. I've read most of the stories they're based on, SO GOOD!

I squee every time I see you post another set, but this made me SUPER-squee:D You're amazing!
Tootsie_Megagirl[info]t_megagirl on January 29th, 2012 05:33 pm (UTC)
:D I'm so glad you like them!
flaming muse: gleekurtbehind sp-fanart[info]flaming_muse on January 29th, 2012 04:28 pm (UTC)
These are just magical!
Tootsie_Megagirl[info]t_megagirl on January 29th, 2012 05:33 pm (UTC)
Thank you so much!
Jamie[info]likeasouffle on January 29th, 2012 09:49 pm (UTC)
Gorgeous! Excellent work!

Re My Dying Breath "Before he realizes..."

LOL Turning that picture sideways is pure genius. Love it!

I especially enjoyed the ones for the stories I'm familiar with, but they're all gorgeous. Damn, Kurt is a smokin' hot vampire. I should read that story. :D
Tootsie_Megagirl[info]t_megagirl on January 29th, 2012 10:41 pm (UTC)
Thank you! You have no idea how pleased I was with myself when I realized I could turn that picture sideways! And yes, go read that story!
drplaneteer[info]drplaneteer on February 2nd, 2012 04:40 am (UTC)
amazing! there are two I haven't read yet, but now I want to! :D
Tootsie_Megagirl[info]t_megagirl on February 2nd, 2012 05:16 am (UTC)
You definitely should; these are some of my favorite fics ever! Thanks for commenting!
lola_mejor[info]lola_mejor on February 5th, 2012 10:23 pm (UTC)
how on earth did you get that many graphics to post?! I had the most difficult time posting a recent fic cos it had too much formatting in it (not even graphics) - it drove me UP THE WALL!

And thanks for having some pics on a fic or two that I haven't read!
Tootsie_Megagirl[info]t_megagirl on February 5th, 2012 10:57 pm (UTC)
I have no idea; I just did it and it worked! Hopefully it will continue working for me in the future.
