Fic: Day of Silence, Matt

Prompt: Kurt gets the Glee club to participate [in Day of Silence]. Day of Silence, for those unaware, students going all day without speaking to memoralize/draw attention to others in the past who have been bullied, judged for their sexuality, or generally never had their voices heard. Would love to see how the gleekers are affected by the

What a wonderful twist. Matt speaking--deliberately, purposefully--on the Day of Silence.

I only with that the show would let him shine as much as this fic does.

His interactions with Rachel rang especially true. It would be very easy for high schoolers to pick on her; his arm slung casually around her shoulders took a lot of courage.

More love for this fic!

I'm so glad you liked it! I thought it would be a nice change for him to be speaking up for once. :)

I hope you don't mind, I've been checking your journal daily for instalments on this fic because the concept intrigues me so much. What a great switch to make Matt speak and do such a wonderful job of being Glee's speaking advocate for the day. So glad he told Puck, I can just see the plots forming in his head and can't wait to see what they come up with. Bravo!

Wow, I'm flattered that you like it enough to check! I've been trying to get them out pretty quickly one after the other, so I'm hoping to get the next part finished soon. And I'm glad the twist with Matt worked! He'll definitely show up again in Puck's part.
