Hi! I'm SO thrilled to see you post your Mormon!Klaine verse on AO3!! I've been following on Tumblr since forever, but knowing the posts are updated, it's like getting back together with an old friend after not seeing each other for a while. RL has been crazy these past couple of months but tomorrow morning, the husband and I fly to Europe for a three week vacation escape. I've downloaded the first 5 chapters of the verse to my phone, and look forward to happily reading them in flight. Thank you
@perryavenue Yay clappy hands and thank you!! I hope you have a great time in Europe, maybe visit some of my old haunts! Perhaps the Omnibusbahnhof in Ingolstadt is on your list of places to see 😉
My best flight ever to/from/through Europe was on KLM because they gave us spekulaas ice cream for dessert, but Lufthansa is a close second for just putting piles and piles of candy in the galley for people to grab whenever they wanted (though that was an extremely long flight, I think 12 or 16 hours?).
Anyway, I hope the fanfic can be a good substitute for spekulaas ice cream if you don't get any on your flight ♥️

Some fave multichapter with angst and fluff?
We recently listed some favorite longer fics here.
Check out Lynne's list of recommended fics here.
Some of my favorite longshots - often with more than one part as well. These weren't mentioned in previous list drawn up above as they are all before 2020. ~Jen
The Symphony Verse by Shandyalls
Blaine has spent most of his life feeling like the only thing people notice about him is that he stutters. He’s working hard to overcome his (mostly self created) roadblocks when he meets Kurt in an online class the summer after his freshman year of college.
~~~~~
Love Song by andiheardeverything
A hate crime leaves Blaine damaged and Kurt refuses to let it bring them down.
~~~~~
100 days by @borogroves
Kurt and Blaine have been best friends (and nothing more) since the age of six. Now 22-year-old college graduates, they take a roadtrip around the USA, visiting every state in 100 days. Fifty states. Two boys. One love story.
~~~~~
The Empty Nest series by @coffeegleek
Burt Hummel was an empty nester who discovered a teenager sleeping under his porch. Kurt was just trying to survive in a world that was against everything he was. This is their story.
~~~~~
Westerville Abbey by @hkvoyage
Blaine is the second son of the earl of Westerville, and is considered the spare heir. After his 18th birthday, he attends the London Season to fulfill his duty of finding a wife. He soon realizes he is more attracted to the new footman. Kurt, who has just arrived at Westerville Abbey to work alongside his father, becomes equally as smitten with the earl’s youngest son. Will Blaine and Kurt be able to overcome their class differences in 1910s England? Will their forbidden love survive WW1? A Downton Abbey inspired historical Klaine AU.
and Life in the Big Apple by @hkvoyage
Sequel to Westerville Abbey. Kurt and Blaine are reunited, but their happily ever after comes with a whole new set of challenges: relationship hiccups, jealousy, sabotage, war memories, and family troubles. Yet with love and perseverance, they can make it through. A Klaine historical AU set in the 1920s.
~~~~
Gilded Cage by @canarian
In the winter of 1895, Blaine Anderson, the son of a wealthy doctor, and Kurt Hummel, the son of a middle class mechanic, cross paths at a luxury hotel in the quiet seaside town of St. Augustine, Florida. With everyone and everything working to keep them apart, can they find a way to be together?
~~~~~
Sweet DREAMers by @perryavenue
Blaine Anderson is a business major at Baruch College of the City University of New York (CUNY). Blaine came to the United States from the Philippines on a tourist visa with his mom when he was three years old and since then, has lived in Woodside, Queens with his mom and cousin Marco. As a gay, undocumented student, he has the questionable good fortune to belong to two marginalized populations. One day, while at his part-time job at a book store, Blaine meets Kurt Hummel, a theatre major from Ohio attending New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts, and begins a tentative friendship. Before it has the chance to bloom into more, Blaine’s immigration status is revealed, creating issues for both of them.

He’s a perfect Curly
All the excitement about Darren Criss possibly doing another Broadway role (including the comment that he could “be a farmer or a cowman”) reminded me of my Oklahoma! fic series, where Blaine is playing Curly in NYADA’s production of Oklahoma! (Just imagine him singing Oh What A Beautiful Morning, all earnest and glowing and lovely...)  Please enjoy (yes the titles are all songs from the show):
People Will Say We’re in Love, 2k Kurt comes home late one night expecting Blaine to be asleep, but he was wrong.  Part 1 of the Oklahoma! stories.
Many a New Day, 3k Sequel to People Will Say We're In Love (second story in the Klainebingo series; part 1 of the Oklahoma stories).  Klainebingo prompt fill (prompt: back rubs).  Kurt and Blaine need to confront Tim, and what they find out surprises them.
All Er Nothin’ 1k Written for Klainebingo (prompt: flirting).  Part 3 of the Oklahoma! series.  Featuring Kurt custom-making Blaine’s costumes, and a surprise for Kurt from Blaine (since he can’t bid on Kurt during the box social...)
Or if you’re in the mood for Blaine and Kurt in Into the Woods, check out these much longer stories (Blaine plays Prince Charming -- of course! and Kurt stars as Jack):
The Journeying, 24k Freshly graduated from music school, Blaine is thrilled when he is chosen to stay in the cast when the production of Into the Woods he was lucky enough to be part of in Boston moves to Broadway.  He knows it’s going to be hard returning to New York City – the scene of his epic breakup with his fiancé and the emotional meltdown which cost him his place at NYADA.  But he’s determined that this time, everything will be different.  Little does Blaine know that out of thousands of potential castmates, his director has chosen none other than Kurt Hummel to play the part of Jack.  Blaine has worked hard to recover from their breakup three years ago, and struggles to find a new way to relate to Kurt and simultaneously protect himself, especially when tragedy strikes.  
This story looks at what would have happened if Kurt and Blaine had reacted differently to the break up in 6x01 than they did in canon; if events hadn’t brought them back together as soon, and if forgiveness hadn’t come so easily.
Ever After, 51k After much soul-searching, Blaine and Kurt have reunited, and are ready to enjoy themselves together in New York while performing on Broadway in Into the Woods.  But they and their characters discover that getting your wish doesn’t guarantee happiness.  Although they are certain they want to be together, circumstances take a toll – the stress of performing every night, Kurt’s grief over the loss of his father, and Blaine’s struggle to give enough but not too much of himself away.   This is the beginning of their “ever after.”

New Klaine Covid-19 Fic (Complete)
My first new fic in nearly two years!
Title: I’m Never Saying Goodbye
Rating: Teen and Up
Relationship: Kurt Hummel/Blaine Anderson
Characters: Kurt Hummel, Blaine Anderson, Tina Cohen-Chang, Sam Evans, other characters, mention of Rachel Berry, mention of Burt and Carole.
Genre: AU
Status: Five Chapters: Complete
Word count: 7375
Link to AO3
Summary: It’s Summer 2020 and Covid-19 has changed everything. With Broadway shut down since March, Blaine and Kurt are back in Lima, Ohio, staying with Burt and Carole. On this day, they’re hanging out (and social distancing) with Sam and Tina. This is also the story of Angela and Marie, a couple who are going through a difficult time. Something is left behind that brings them all together. TW for suicidal ideation/suicidal thoughts (non-canon character), discussion of suicide, discussion of depression. It does have a hopeful ending!
A/N It seems appropriate to post this fic during National Suicide Prevention Week. Glee’s 2015 series finale, “Dreams Come True” (Season 6 Episode 13), fast forwards five years to 2020. In that episode. Kurt and Blaine have received acclaim for their LGBTQ+ version of “Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf” at New York’s Lincoln Center. Tina and Artie live together in New York where Tina’s been acting in one of his indie films. Sam is the new choir director at McKinley High School. Rachel is the star of “Jane Austen Sings” and is pregnant as the surrogate mom for Kurt and Blaine’s baby. This video segment from the episode gives a great summary of what happens to them. I’ve taken Kurt, Blaine, Sam, Tina, and Rachel, and their careers, and moved them all to a Covid-19 universe.
My endless thanks to my amazing beta @flowerfan2 for helping me bring this fic to life. Her guidance and constant encouragement energized me to write my first fic in nearly two years. Please check the notes at the end of the fic for the backstory.
Chapter 1 Lunch Date
For the past five minutes, Blaine’s been trying to distract Kurt by making small circles with his fingers on Kurt’s thigh, but Kurt’s deliberately ignoring him, preferring instead to go deep with Tina about the latest episode of The Umbrella Academy on Netflix. Blane’s looking forward to some payback later tonight.
Blaine is glad that the weather has been nice enough to allow him and Kurt to get outside more often lately.  It’s been hard living in quarantine mode in Lima for months, but at least they’ve been together. Burt and Carole have been great. Burt even helped them convert the guest room into a workspace for their virtual performances and conferences with producers and agents.
Blaine sees his mom for occasional driveway visits, and he makes a point of going running with Sam, with plenty of space between them. Even Kurt has started to mellow out. In the beginning, he wouldn’t let Burt out of the house, not even to his repair shop.  But that has changed. Kurt lets him go in during the hours before the shop opens or after closing, and Burt stays in touch with his employees and customers by phone.
Now that Kurt’s agreed to eating outdoors at restaurants, it’s been even better. And here they are, at one end of a long picnic table with Sam and Tina at the other.
“This is perfect,” Blaine says with a satisfied sigh. “We’re outside, in the shade, with great company, and rocking the social distancing thing.”

perryavenue replied to your post “Ugh. I should have gone to sleep a couple of hours ago. Now it’s...”
The idea of Darren and Ryan continuing to do work together is just thrilling!
It is! All the possibilities. And I love that Ryan specifically asked Darren what he wanted to do next because I think Darren has a lot of ideas as well. Putting those two minds together will result in a lot of magic for us.

perryavenue replied to your post: likearumchocolatesouffle replied to your post :...
I was surprised that I wasn’t prompted to give a Tee shirt size. That’s not good news for me! Also, I purchased at level 2, but wasn’t told what my number was. How did you find out yours? Thanks!
Yeah, the prompt was weird. I saw the “Buy Now” but then caught that they were all “S: by default so I did the dropdown to the other sizes.
I did Level Three and I actually got an email with my player number (112) pretty quickly! Probably because it requires a selfie so they can do the 8-bit art, so they needed me to reply with that.
(I hope they actually ask Agnes to do the avatars...I mean I know she’s busy but they used her art for the other stuff I think it’s only fair. Plus I’d be turned into @sunshunes art!)

For the anon looking for Klaine fics where they talk online and don't know they know each other in real life, do emails count? If so, I highly recommend The Better Knot Blow Tie Company Act 1 by @gleefulpoppet It starts off as a series of emails. The fic is also visually beautiful thanks to the author's stunning artwork.
Well, let's count it. After all, it's a really great fic. - HKVoyage
Better Knot Bow Tie Company by @gleefulpoppet
Blaine Anderson has been a Better Knot Bow Tie Company monthly subscriber for years. He's taken a hiatus from Broadway to facilitate the Journey Performing Arts School's summer program in New York. What happens when a zany bow tie sets off a chain reaction of events that may change their futures forever?

fic ask meme: last lines!
I was tagged by @perryavenue to list the last lines of the last 5 fics I’ve written (thanks, lovely!)
I’m tagging @whatstheproblembaby because she’s currently the only fic-writer with new work on my dash lmao (sorry, I’m terrible, working on it) and also whoever
“I Saw the Signs” - post “The First Time” Hudmel family moment 
“I’m taking my coffee to my room,” Kurt announces, avoiding their glances as he leaves. He turns at the foot of the stairs and adds, “Thanks, Dad. And Finn, despite the, um… crude way that you said it, I – it’s nice to know. I do appreciate it.”
Finn shrugs. “It’s nothing, bro. I’m just not being a dick.”
Burt picks his newspaper back up, grinning at the picture of Blaine and Rachel staring into each other’s eyes. “Our protagonists, in love and on the verge of adulthood, are so convincing in their charming young romance that one might think they had real-life experience to draw from!”
That columnist has no idea.
"Heroes Never Die” - (part 1 of ?) Kurt and Blaine meet online, playing Overwatch
Blaine… Hmm. “Superhero by day, skilled healer by night?”
“That’s me,” Blaine laughs. The sound is wonderful. “Actually, I can play a lot of characters, if you want to stick with healer. Or I can. I’m versatile.”
What a refreshing change from his usual play group. Kurt likes it. Kurt likes him.
“We’ll see what kind of group we get. Ready?”
“Let’s save the world!” Blaine exclaims, pulling a chuckle from Kurt as he puts them in the queue for a game.
This ought to be interesting.
“Fly” - Blaine, Kurt, and the rest of the squad in a Disney Fairies AU
“Would you… accompany me back to my maple tree? S-so we can, um, let my team know the plan and start preparations, I mean.” Blaine looks down and shuts his eyes when he finishes talking, mentally berating himself for letting his courage falter when all he wants is to ask Kurt to go on a walk around the pond.
Kurt watches him for a moment with a little smile, putting something together in his head before he answers. “Of course. And then, when we’re done visiting my burrow to get my team on board, would you like to go for a walk through the rosebushes?”
Blaine’s nervous grimace becomes a thousand-firefly beam as he nods, wordlessly but ecstatically, and lets go of Kurt’s hand so that he can wrap up his designs.
Kurt reaches for him again, taking his hand without a second thought before they lift off for the animal fairies’ maple tree. “I just think I should hold onto you, Blaine,” he says, one eyebrow arched. “I’m not sure you can keep up.”
Blaine takes the cheeky challenge for what it is and holds on tight as they fly. “We’ll see about that.”
“Flustered” - lil early!Klaine ficlet set right after the “Blackbird” moment
“I’ll see you in the morning. Feel free to text me if you want.”
Blaine definitely wants. “Yeah. I’ll… see you.”
Kurt gives him a funny look, bemused by his awkward behavior, but he grins and waves the hand with the handkerchief in it as he leaves the room.
Blaine just stands there for a few more minutes, pressing his palms together in front of his face as the words for what he needs to express start to sort themselves out in his head.
He suddenly has a lot more to put on the council table than those silly blazers.
“That Can Only Mean One Thing” - sexy social media shenanigans on top of a “same age but manager/employee” relationship
Blaine’s eyes darken. “You know, I didn’t think you had any idea of the effect you have on people, but I was wrong, wasn’t I?”
“I think I’m starting to figure it out,” Kurt answers, setting down his glass and turning to give Blaine a good view of him walking away. Then he grins coyly over his shoulder and says, “I live closer to the venue than you do, so, meet me at my place? I’ll text you the address.”
Blaine just nods, sipping his wine with that same sultry look in his eyes as he watches him.
“Great. I’ll see you–OOF!” Kurt bangs into the glass door, once again not quite realizing how close it is and shattering his sudden confident fatale persona.
Blaine spits some of his wine back into his glass, laughing, and covers his mouth. He coughs a few times, but thankfully, choosing not to comment on it, lets Kurt walk away with a sweet, simple, “I can’t wait.”

First lines...
I’ve been tagged (thank you!) so here are the first lines from my last 11 fics – enjoy!  And all you fic writers out there, go ahead and do this too!  (I picked 11 because I wanted to sneak a Stucky one in here as well… but list as many as you like!)
Dream Baby Dream – McDanno, 1100 words Steve strolls into Danny’s office, not bothering to knock.
Hāʻule Lau (Fallen Leaves) – McDanno, 5400 words Danny shifts between Steve’s legs, running a hand up Steve’s hip and over his chest.
An Ineffable Honeymoon – Crowley/Aziraphale, 6800 words It’s just a few years after the not-apocalypse when Crowley asks Aziraphale to marry him.
Troubadour – Crowley/Aziraphale, 1700 words Contrary to what one might think from riding in his car, Crowley did listen to music other than Queen.
Poor Puzzled Moon – Crowley/Aziraphale, 800 words “Adam’s birthday is coming up,” Aziraphale says, sniffing appreciatively at his soup.
Bound to Be Together – McDanno, 53k “Sorry, what?” Steve rasped.  Danny pulled into Steve's driveway and repeated himself, his voice as gentle as he could make it.  “I said, do you want me to come in?”
View From The Shipwreck – McDanno, 12k “Detective Williams, was your daughter on some kind of school field trip this morning?”
Melt With You – McDanno, 1600 words Steve stood in his office, giving up on unbuttoning his torn shirt and instead tugging it off over his head.
Mile-High Butterflies – McDanno, 1100 words “Remember the first time we were on an airplane together?”
One Particular Harbour – McDanno, 3100 words Steve is in his office, trying to decide what the chances are of them catching a case between now and the end of the work day, or whether he can just let everyone go and call it a weekend, when Danny appears in his doorway.
With You I’d Walk Anywhere – Stucky, 28k Bucky carefully puts away his dinner dishes, drying each handmade clay piece before returning it to the shelf.

Last Line Game
Rule: Post the last line you’ve written and tag as many people as there are words in that line.
I’ve been tagged by @perryavenue  , though I should point out, that I don’t write original fanfiction, but translate some of my favorite ones (with the author’s permission, of course) So here you have the last line I translated yesterday. It’s from my current project   All The Other Ghosts by Rainjoy / Chapter 11
Also sagt Blaine: "Ich liebe dich auch", küsst ihn noch einmal und begleitet ihn zur Tür, wo er einen letzten Kuss bekommt, Kurt ihm sanft mit dem Daumen über die Wange streichelt und ihm mit großen Augen einen letzten verwunderten Blick zuwirft, bevor er über den Flur davongeht – die dunkelgrauen Ghost-Stiefel verborgen unter Coopers viel zu langen, schwarzen Jeans, Blaines rotes Poloshirt von einer dunklen Strickjacke bedeckt, die Arme fest um seinen Oberkörper geschlungen, sieht er überhaupt nicht aus wie Kurt und gleichzeitig doch auch exakt wie er.
I didn’t count the words, but these are definitely too many to tag specific people, so I want to encourage all of my followers who write in whatever language to participate <3 <3

Elementary, My Dear Anderson
For Klaine Advent 2018  Also on AO3
Chapter One
Hi! It feels good to rejoin the Klaine Fanfic Party after a two year absence! A Future!Klaine story idea that’s been buried since 2016 decided that it wanted to come out and celebrate Advent.  I hope you enjoy it!
Summary: Blaine and Kurt are thrilled to be visiting Lima over the Christmas holiday. They’re happy to take a break from their busy schedules; Blaine as a popular professor of music composition at NYU, Kurt as an actor who has just finished a successful run in the off-Broadway play Sherlock Holmes and the Adventure of the Purloined Prize. But when an accident befalls Blaine, will visions of Dr. Watson dance in his head? This Klaine Advent 2018 holiday adventure is a continuous story that will post one or more times a week through December 24.
Day One: Snowman
Blaine shifted in his seat and turned to Kurt, who was next to him, eyes closed, listening to a playlist through his ear buds.  Blaine hesitated to disturb him, but he figured he had a good enough reason. He carefully removed the  ear bud closest to him.  
“Hey, husband,” he said softly. Kurt opened one eye and gave him a questioning look. “The plane’s going to land in less than an hour.  I thought I’d use the bathroom now, while it’s quiet. Let me out?”
Kurt stretched, took out the other ear bud, unbuckled his seat belt, and slowly stood up, moving sideways into the aisle. “I knew I should have taken the window seat.”
Blaine squeezed his arm affectionately as he passed in front of him, not at all minding when their bodies brushed together. “I’ll remind you next time.”
*
Burt was waiting when they landed in Columbus. The winter cold hit them the minute they stepped through the sliding doors onto the sidewalk. Kurt tightened the scarf around his neck. “God. It’s even colder here than in New York.”
Burt smiled. “See what happens when you stay away too long? You get nostalgic for winter in Ohio.”
Kurt grinned. “I don’t think that’s what I meant. But I am nostalgic about Christmas.”
Burt opened the trunk of his car so Kurt and Blaine could load their bags.  “We did what you told us,” he said to Kurt.  “Carole and I bought the tree, but held off on the decorating. We’re leaving that to you and Blaine.”
“Maybe ‘leaving that to you so you can give orders to Blaine’ is more accurate,” Blaine teased as he opened the rear passenger door and got inside.
Kurt, who took the front seat next to Burt, turned around and gave Blaine a mock glare. “Never orders, sweetie. Just suggestions.”
“Oh, is that what we’re calling it now?” said Burt as he pulled out of the parking space.
“Dad! You’re supposed to be on my side!!”
As they got closer to Lima, Kurt’s eyes were glued to the window, while he pointed out what was new and what had stayed the same since their last visit home. When they reached his old neighborhood, Kurt began to critique the outdoor holiday decorations that adorned many of the homes.  Inflatables seemed to be all the rage.
“I think that’s nice,” said Burt as they drove by a lawn with an inflatable snowman and three illuminated reindeer.  “Very traditional.”  Blaine was about to say something when Kurt spotted a front yard full of inflatable Minions.
“Oh my god. Please tell me what Kevin and Stuart have to do with Christmas!”
Blaine smiled. Kurt had no patience with design fails, whether it was clothing or home décor. “You didn’t seem to mind the Mickey and Minnie Mouse inflatables two blocks back.”
“Mickey and Minnie are iconic,” Kurt replied. “They transcend Christmas. I find inflatable Minions aesthetically offensive as holiday decorations.”
“Guess I’d better scratch my plans for a Minion holiday tableau for our apartment, then.”
To be continued.
My thanks to The Road Warrior and The Fan Daughter, who tossed around plot ideas for this fic during a long car ride to New York City in August 2016 to see Darren Criss in White Rabbit Red Rabbit!  Not once in two years have they asked what happened to it, bless them! Thanks as well to my fabulous beta and dear friend @flowerfan2 who is solely responsible for this fic’s resurrection. She can be very persuasive when she wants to be!
Last but certainly not least, my thanks to @slayediest and all the fabulous people at @klaineadvent and @todaydreambelieversfic for keeping the Klaine fanfic torch lit and the fun never ending.

perryavenue replied to your post: I’m a little bummed. One of my favourite Disney...
Do you have a DVR so you can record it? It’s a regular broadcast event on the ABC Network.
I would be shocked if it’s aired here. And fuckin gobsmacked if they air it at the same time as America.
