Tina quits ND. Kind of spoilers for 3x12 and vague for 3x14

[anonymous]

Reason why Tina wasn't in 3x12? She decided to quit the Glee club. What's the point of being in Glee if you only get to sing if all the other girls are out of comission?

Bonus points: If more people stop showing up (I'm thinking Quinn, Kurt, Puck and/or Mike but go with whatever). Because with Rachel/Santana as female lead, Blaine/Finn as male and the TroubleTones getting a song at every competition it's pretty apparent that the rest is just background singers from now on.

Mr. Schue remembers that he's technically in charge here: "Puck, I appreciate your concern for a team mate but that's not quite what happened. I had no intention to keep Tina's leaving from you guys-"

"Then why did you? I had to ask her to find out - after two missed practices."

"-and Mike, no one here would want to insult Tina," ignoring that at least half of Glee did not a minute ago, "-she is of course perfectly in her rights to quit if that's what she wants. We're not forcing anyone here to participate! Though I really wish she hadn't done it quite so close to our next competition of course..."

Santana instantly points out that they don't need Tina anyway. Their numbers are fine, still better than ever. Some (Artie, Kurt, Sam, Rory for some reason) look uncomfortable, as if that shouldn't be their main issue with Tina leaving. They don't say anything though. Rachel, Finn, Mercedes, Quinn and Blaine though look pretty relieved and agree with La Lopez. Brit looks discomfited by the fighting and Sugar entertained.

Nobody seems

If they leave now, New Directions still has twelve members as long as Sam and Rory stay on. Mike and him aren't essential for being able to compete according to show choir rules. It makes quitting easier in a way. People don't expect it from him (or much of anything, he has little delusions about that: one more reason to get out of here this summer and never look back unless for obligatory family visits) but he is a team player

OP again. I feel crazy making this prompt and still getting upset by a**h*** Schue and Glee club. And crossing my fingers that more people will quit so ND will be ineligible to compete (Come on, Rory/Kurt/Artie break free!).

Once again, love the fill, you are awesome <3

Thanks, glad to hear!

I get you, even if a prompt demands something (and you actually wanted it like that) it can still be tough to read when your favorite characters suffer or aren't appreciated. Last season it would have been so easy to tank Glee with them barely skirting 12 singers. Unfortunately this year with 15 people AND Tina quitting so very close to Regionals it's much more unlikely... I found 3x14 excrutiatingly bad (like Night of Neglect-beating bad, most terrible and badly written ep ever: so much offensive and harmful material on sensitive topics. ARGH) but it gave me a solution with the Regionals performance. Small favors. I'll be interested if you'll like it. And no worries: Tina and co will be the ones content in the end ^_^

We're about halfway done, the only thing is around 9.000 words. BTW, I'm putting it up on FFnet too in more easily read chapters. Here: www.fanfiction.net/s/7883110/1/Walkout

I surrender - I HATE posting in super-small chunks and with manual html-tags. The meme really isn't for anything but posting very short fills imo.

The next parts are here: www.fanfiction.net/s/7883110/2/Walkout

Last parts will be up on FFnet on Saturday I think. I'll also post the whole thing to my fic-LJ and link it here.
