I'm kind of a lurker in Glee fandom but I am loving this series so much that I just had to comment.

This is perfect and heartbreaking and wonderful and inspiring and I keep checking for more because I just can't wait. You write all the characters really well and you're handling the issue so well.

I can't wait for the next instalment, even though I will be really disappointed when it ends.

Thanks so much for reading and leaving a comment! I'm so glad you like this story. And I think I'll be disappointed when it ends too! I'm having way too much fun writing it.

Oh, this whole series is so sweet. I really love friendship fics, and this one is great.

Thanks so much! Friendship fics are my favorites to write, so I'm glad you like it!

Thank you so much! I'm trying my best not to get excessively angsty or sappy or anything, so I'm glad you think it's realistic. :)

I was fascinated by the way you showed Mike and Kurt's social paths being so similar initially (both being harrassed for being gay--or assumed gay) before splitting off. This backstory makes so much sense with the little we know of Mike, and also sets up the unique Mike/Kurt friendship that you highlight here. The idea of Mike choreographing and dancing to a song for Kurt just made me smile. :)

I'm glad the backstory made sense. :) I've always thought that Mike most likely would have been teased before he had football, seeing how bad the Glee club and Kurt have it. Thanks for reading!!
