GAH. It's hard though! Cause I really honestly truly understand where Kurt is coming form, and I really don't think he's wrong to want this for himeself.

Yet I feel like I'm doing something wrong!

*facepalm*

Oh the woes of a fangirl...

I know exactly how you feel! I'm such a nice more Blaine-style person in real life, it's hard for me to admit that this is really how Kurt would be and what he needs to do... AND I think he's justified in doing it. Of course the plot may thicken...

Thanks for taking the time to read and comment :)

I finally posted Chapter 3...

Haha I know you like my Kurt bb.. I'm just worried about the rest of us!

Oh, Kurt... I'm torn, because I want the same things for him that he wants for himself, but it seems like his inner diva is coming out full force and it's putting off Blaine. I half want to tell Blaine to deal with it because it's high time Kurt had something for himself, but at the same time, if this side of Kurt isn't one he likes, it's not like he can change that feeling.

Also, two questions. What is non decaf? Is it another way to say decaf or since the "non" cancels out the "de," is it actually caffeinated? Or maybe it's something in between decaf and full on caffeinated, like another way to say half-caf?

Second question, what in the world is "arvo"? I spent a fair amount of time trying to puzzle it out because contextually, it seems like "afternoon" but if it's some slang or shortened version of "afternoon," then there's that pesky "v" in it that doesn't make sense so then I tried figuring out if it was some strange typo but I've got nothing.

Oh man thank you for pointing out those oddities in this chapter! Yes 'non-decaf' was meant to be 'decaf' - and 'arvo' is Australian slang - and yes it means afternoon. REALLY sorry. I've fixed both now.

And I understand your feelings re Blaine and Kurt - Kur'ts inner Diva definitely seems to be making an appearance... and it will be interesting to see how he and Blaine proceed.

Hope you stay tuned to see what happens - and don't mind the occasional Australianisms!

Hopefully my betas and I managed to find and edit out all the random Australian slang from Chapter 3 of this fic... hopefully if we missed some you'll bear with us :D

Great premise for a story ( ... )

lola_mejor March 6 2012, 19:53:10 UTC

Thanks for your detailed comments about this fic. I love how you characterise Kurt and Blaine as just being in a Mars/Venus situation - cos that's how I see it.

I think it's really a "mileage varies" issue as to whether it's a bad thing for Kurt to go for community theatre without telling Rachel.

My feeling was that Kurt would usually take the high road (this fic is now firmly AU because I am *not* going to recognise most of what happened in Michael or On My Way, but at least what we saw of Kurt in Michael goes with my instinct in terms of taking the high road - and why I think he would struggle with acting differently).

I want Kurt to realise that you need to get out there to make your dreams happen, but at the same time it's a journey for him because despite what Rachel has done to him, they're friends and he is a sensitive kind guy... but anyway, that's my headcanon...

See where he gets to and what happens next now that I've FINALLY posted Chapter 3And thanks for reading and commenting - and I'm so happy you like the setup ( ... )
