Glee. 6,590 Words. Puck/Rachel. Five Six times Puck realizes Rachel Berry has him wrapped around her little finger (and he sorta doesn't mind). Prompt compliments of
mstatertot and eternal thanks to
hariboo_smirks and
une_fille for basically existing. Title nicked from Jens Lekman. (Why am I so unoriginal?)

Yes you do, Puck! This was my favourite badass-to-dammit-I'm-completely-whipped moment.
EEEEEE! Love this. Love this so very much. Especially the part about auditioning for American Idol, and the Idina Menzel comparison, and then Rachel tears it up because she's Rachel Batshit Berry. You always have her insanity down pat.

And I absolutely love the fact that his passing comment about her insanity was your favorite whipped moment. NOAH PUCKERMAN, WHY YOU SO GODDAMN FLY/ADORABLE.

And you write Puck's character and their relationship (whatever it really is) so well, without it sounding too cliche, too fluffy or too destructive. How I wish I could write a better review, but seriously I'm floored so I'm just gonna say I frickin' loved it. Keep writing Puckleberry! =)

OMG LOL, I KNOW RIGHT? Puckkkkk, you kill me. (Also, I hereby declare that it's not at all weird for me, as the author, to get flaily over parts of this because IT'S ALL NOAH FUCKING PUCKERMAN. He melts ovaries, I swear.)
Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and leave such a thoughtful review! And honestly, you couldn't have written it any better-- just knowing that you guys enjoyed this as much as I enjoyed writing it has totally made my day.

“Dude, where’s the Ambiguously Gay Duo?" - That? I DIED. Mostly because I was like, Puck, there's nothing ambiguous about it but omg.
I wanted a party and I said no because who would ever come to Rachel Berry’s Sweet Sixteen?” She looks down and laughs sadly. “But now…Now there is someone.” - OH, RACHEL.
(Puck laughs when he sees two beds) - Yeah, I'd laugh too. Like that's going to stop them.
The scene in the hammock was just SO. MUCH. LOVE.
And like everyone else said, the AI audition was for the win.
...and I'm going to go hide in a corner now and be appropriately in AWE. Because, just AWE.

LOL, not gonna lie, that was one of my favorite lines. You get the reference, right? From the animated skits they had on SNL back in the late 90s/early 00s? Possibly before Puck's time, but whatever, he was totally watching SNL when he was ten.
Ahh, this comment was so sweet; thanks so much for taking the time to read and review! I can't say this enough: THIS FIC = SO MUCH FUN TO WRITE. And the fact that you seem to have loved it as much as I loved writing it makes me that much happier.

It seemed like you had a lot of fun writing it, which is probably why it's so AWESOME.

except, you know, interracial
OMG, wait, can we please discuss how FUCKING HILARIOUS IT IS that Rachel's dads are a happily married, interracial gay couple of card-carrying members of the ACLU who RAISED THIS DELIGHTFUL MESS OF A GIRL? Like, IDEK everything about them cracks me up/fills me with joy, especially since they're absoltely, 150% normal and not at all Rachel-like in my head. Just two dudes who work 9 to 5 and have business trips and are really intensely protective of their teenage daughter, especially when it comes to boys whose names rhyme with fuck and are clearly BAD FUCKING NEWS. Oh, the fathers Berry...I need to feature them more prominently in future fic.

It's awesome and you're awesome for writing it. Your Rachel and Puck are both perfect and the way you've written them together is just right - neither too sappy or too hurtful.
Thanks for writing!

HA. I'm so happy you approve. :)
neither too sappy or too hurtful.
Oy, that's such a relief...It's so hard not to fall down the rabbit hole of cheesy fluff; especially for someone like me who's basically hardwired for the cheese. But yes! Somehow, sappy/hurtful is a fantastic description of what Puck and Rachel are.
Hey thanks so much for taking the time to leave such a kind comment. I can't tell you how lovely it feels to know you enjoyed reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it!
