theboxscene.tumblr.comRecently, Klainers came together, raised $4,200 for charity, and won a charity auction for the script of Glee’s Extraordinary Merry Christmas episode! So, you know what that means…
Soon, we’ll know what happened here:
Many Klainers expressed dismay that they didn’t learn of our fundraising efforts until after we had won. No need to fret.

Day 20. No One Should Spend Christmas Alone
On the Twentieth Day of Ficmas, Michelle gave to thee:
Kurt having to spend Christmas Eve in the hospital, and a kind hearted intern keeping him company, for my other Becca. This definitely has some glaring inaccuracies, and I apologize in advance. It’s the thought that counts? ._.
None of them meant for it to happen, but people rarely mean for bad things to happen. They aren’t planned, and they certainly don’t take things like Christmas into account. So, when Kurt is helping Carole prepare Christmas Eve dinner, he doesn’t think very much of the sudden, dull pain in his stomach. Even when it turns sharp, more focused, he shakes his head and shoos off Carole’s concerns.
It’s not until he throws up that his dad starts to think something of it, but Kurt insists that he’s fine. Really. Even when he starts breathing heavily and clutching his stomach due to the pain. Even when he starts dry heaving.
It’s Christmas Eve, but Burt forces him into the car (which isn’t hard—Finn practically has to carry him at that point) and drives him to Lima Memorial.
Kurt wants to argue, really he does, he has to make the pies for tomorrow, but every time he even contemplates opening his mouth, a wave of nausea overtakes him. Curled up in the front seat of his dad’s SUV, he begins to think that, yeah, maybe something is wrong.
Re: stories. I have read sooooo many stories. Let's Play Pretend & Too In Love for sure. The list is long but I would start with (I can send links): The Luckiest (WordPlayItOut); Lovesong (PreciousMellow); Snapshots (Borogroves); The Wisdom of Wildflowers and Discord and DIsaster (Water-Nix); It's Not Babysitting (AnxiousSquirrel); The Long Way Round (Emmy-May92); Everyday (whatiknew); Crema Verse (TwoBirdonesong); Glowing In the Dark (xxxraquelita); Carry Me Home (Tonight) (blasthisass);
Thank you!
I’ve read most of these, actually. (Love to see my girl Mimsy on the list for “Snapshots” — the mother of all future!Klaine fics).
I’ve never been shy about declaring my love for “The Luckiest” (I’m creepy about it, actually), and “Lovesong” is forever among my favorite verses.
I loved “It’s Not Babysitting” so, so much (did you she just put up a new drabble for that verse/story?). “Everyday” was gorgeous, and the “Crema” verse is adorable.
The others I have not read, or I’ve only read pieces here and there. Thank you SO MUCH for this amazing list. I’m excited!
Fic: Keeping the Balance (4/8?)
Title: Keeping the Balance
Author: sun_and_rain
Rating: PG-13
Warning: deals with issues of consent, homophobia, and memory loss
Summary: They met up once a week, to gather stories and fragments of memories like puzzle pieces. No one recognized the name when Kurt first spoke it–a name he’d found buried somewhere in his dreams–but he couldn’t shake the feeling that it was important: “Blaine”. Whatever had been taken from them had something to do with Blaine.
A/N: Extra long chapter in apology for how long it’s taken me to post this. School has been much busier than I expected. I hope you enjoy this chapter! P.S., I’ve gotten my first fanart! It’s here: done by the amazingly talented theplaylistismagic. Go and shower her with love, and then follow her, because she is quality. I adore her art and her fics; she’s just supremely talented.
We’re still on Kurt with this chapter, by the way. The boy has got quite a lot to say. ;) Please remember to read and review! Though it takes me forever to answer your reviews sometimes, I promise I will eventually answer every single one. You are all lovely, patient readers, and I’m so touched you’ve all stuck with me. Thank you!
Read it on lj here or on ff.net here!
unacceptable. times new roman, apa format
and that’s why you can’t be in the league *snap z formation*
just woke up from a dream in which i was waiting for the bus and talking with katrina when we saw tumblr user becca andiheardeverything across the street and i was too shy to say hi to her.
oh, also, that happened after visiting the crisscolfer crash pad ladies who had helped me find out where the piglet living in my apartment had come from. the answer was in a glee episode none of us had seen before. i just—
tldr; don’t go to your dashboard when you wake up in the middle of the night and fall asleep again.
Fic Rec (Because everyone needs a good cry):
Note: This is the first part of a verse titled Lovesong. It’s probably the heaviest fic I’ve read but it’s so beautifully written. I have tears clouding my vision. YOU WILL CRY.
Summary: Despite everything, everything they’ve gone through in the past five months, nothing’s changed. Kurt and Blaine are still KurtandBlaine and they always will be. No matter how many rusted pipes they have to take to the head, nothing can break what they have. Ever.
A hate crime leaves Blaine damaged and Kurt refuses to let it bring them down.
Rating: Different for each fic of the verse.
Seriously, wiping away tears while I’m reading is my new favorite thing.
Dear god, Lovesong has got to be one of my favorite things to read ever in the entire history of ever.
Everybody should go read it. Like, right now.
