Glee. 971 words. Multi-chapter Puck/Rachel, post-Mash Up. Title (in subject line) from Pink Floyd's "Wish You Were Here," and chapter title from Spoon. My brain has been completely consumed by these two, you guys. I'm seriously considering seeking professional help. Oh! And chapter titles = soundtrack, so LISTEN. To the street beat. (Get the ( Read more... )

eeeee. I cannot wait to see where this goes!!!

I just love Puck's inner voice. LOVE. And he's right, Rachel DOES have a smoking bod. :D

Yeah, as much as I'd like Puck and Rachel to just get it on already, it doesn't make complete sense without resolving the Quinn-Finn issue (what IS it with the rhyming names?!?)

I really like where you're going with this. Puck's voice is spot-on. CanNOT wait for the next chapter ;)

Ew I know, I only just realized like two days ago that their names rhyme. LOL I'M PRETTY RIDICLOUS. I feel kind of bad though because I used to really like Finn, but I just can't get over that episode where he uses Rachel to get her back onto Glee. Now I just see him as a comedic foil in The Romantic Comedy Stylings of Puck and Rachel.

I posted a new chapter tonight! I was supposed to be studying, but...I ended up doing this instead :( (or :D?)

What a nice way to start the morning before trekking out into the foot and half of snow. No time for real constructive comments, but I wanted to add to what others have said and tell you that your characterization of Puck seems very in-character.

3 cheers for being a fellow poor grad student ! ;)

Damn Colorado and its unpredictable October snowings! (I assume that's where you are because of all the snow I'm currently buried under in Boulder)

I'm just a half skip and a jump away in Denver.

Grad students unite! Thanks so much for the kind words-- glad you're enjoying it!

It's a good thing I like you so much, because that's the only reason I read this, but now I'm SO GLAD I DID. You've totally nailed what the show would sound like if his inner-voice were the narrator. Now I kind of wish that were the case.

God, those lovestruck puppy duets made him want to puke
HAHAHA. Me, too, dude. Me, too.

HAHAHA when I saw you responded to this, I legit did a double take. First and foremost, can I just say it's embarassing how entertaining it is to converse through our ~aliases~. BUT DUDE THANKS. That's basically the biggest complement I could ever recieve because you're basically the greatest fic writer of all time (WAIT PENUMBRA, IMMA LET YOU FINISH BUT--) and I'm not even exaggerating.

I knowww, the whole notion of writing Glee fic is so ridiculous, but it's silly! and fun! and Puck! IDEK. It's hard to get over the crippling insecurity that comes with posting this stuff, BUT WHATEVA. I'm kind of hoping I finish it quickly because I stayed in on a Friday night to study and I ended up updating it again? WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME. It's just my fluff-loving weaknessssss. Well-written, well-characterized fluff is truly my kryptonite. I can only hope that this ends up being that and not an awful heap of cheesiness. (I'm trying hard to give it an actual plot structure before fluffing it up.)

THIS WAS SUCH AN UNNECESSARILY LONG COMMENT, MY

Thanks for the nod to my story... I almost jumped up and down when I read the title, and that was before I knew where it came from.

Wonderful, wonderful writing... you've nailed Puck's voice better than I ever will. :)

of_hearts October 31 2009, 04:30:54 UTC

Oh man, I didn't realize you were on here! I don't think I got the chance to properly review your fic because I've had such a crazy schedule lately, but I just want to say OH MY GOD YOUR STORY. IT'S ALL I COULD EVER WANT OUT OF FANFIC. You write the drama/plot-twistiness so well and it's so sharp and wonderfully endearing and Puck's bedroom! Puck's bedroom! Puck's bedroom! I basically love everything it chooses to be. Everytime I see you updated, it makes my day!

So glad you're enjoying this little thing. That means a lot coming from you!

Actually, I've just been lurking until now. Signed up to comment on this, since I didn't realize you'd posted on ff.net too. Thanks for the love, I'm really just glad the whole thing doesn't suck, and that people enjoy it. This whole fanfic stuff is brand new to me, and I'm amazed by all the talented writers. It's funny, but I'm starting to enjoy it more than the show. :)

So glad you enjoyed the "Wish you were here" reference, I realized it was kinda out of place, but a guy playing this on a guitar? It's the one thing that melts my insides ever time.
