Dave and Kurt explain polyamory

“Questions don’t embarrass me, Dave,” Kurt assured him. “I want you to ask anything you want to know about anything. I’ll try to answer as best as I can.”

“Ooookay,” Dave muttered. “Well, uh. When you’re being… intimate, with two other people. Isn’t that… like, I can’t believe nobody ever gets stressed out or scared or jealous in the middle of things. If they’re doing things and you’re not involved…” He shook his head. “How do you handle that?”

“First of all, it depends on how involved all of you are with each other. I’ve mostly done this with people who are in love with each other. Even if you’re not touching anybody, there’s not a lot of not involved when you’re watching your two boyfriends together.”

“Yeah, I guess I can see that,” Dave said after a moment.

“As for being jealous, trust me, it sometimes comes up at the worst times.” Kurt had to roll his eyes at early memories of him in bed with Puck and Blaine, and before that, in the janitor’s closet with Finn and Puck. “So, then, you decide if you’re willing to be the center of attention while you have your freakout, or if you want to wait and have it later. But believe me, it comes out. You have to be willing to be selfish sometimes.”

Dave smiled, shaking his head. “How is it selfish to let your boyfriend be in a relationship with another guy?”

“It’s not a question of letting him,” Kurt said indignantly. “Any of them. They’re all autonomous beings. I’m not going to tell them they can or can’t do something they want to do, just because I love them.”

“Most people do, Kurt. You might not think that’s okay, but the rest of the world does work that way.”

Kurt sniffed. “Well, that’s up to them. I’m not saying people can’t be monogamous if they want to be. I’m saying I’m never going to be one of them. It’s just… way too good.”

Dave glanced furtively through the kitchen at the den, where Timothy and Jacob and his dad were sitting, watching football. “I get the feeling you mean more than the sex.”

“I mean the feelings. The—the good feeling you get when someone you love is happy because of someone else.”

He looked somewhat incredulous. “That’s a good feeling?”

Kurt cast around for a metaphor Dave would understand. “Okay, look… the woman who wrote the books about the armored bears. You love her books, right?” Dave nodded. “And I imagine there are other authors you like as much, or more. Imagine if the two of them wrote a book together. Would you be upset?”

“Upset?” Dave shook his head. “No. Especially not if the book was good.”

“Right. I imagine the book wouldn’t be the same as if they each wrote a book individually, but that doesn’t mean it wouldn’t be good. It might even be better.” Kurt smiled. “And, having a collaborative relationship doesn’t mean they wouldn’t ever write their own books anymore.”

Dave shrugged. “I do get a little jealous when I’m reading a really good book, because I wish I’d written it first.”

“Well, then, you call up the author and you ask if they want to write a book with them.”

He gave Kurt a wry smile. “You just think you can do whatever you want, don’t you? People don’t call up authors and ask them to collaborate on a novel. Who says I’d ever be good enough for that?”

“I do,” Kurt said. Dave cracked up laughing, but Kurt stood firm. “Who says you’re not? The worst they can do is say no.”

Dave snorted. “No, the worst they can do is to tell all their friends and then tease me mercilessly about it for years.”

“Well, then, I’d go and beat them up for you.”

“You know,” said Dave, grinning, “I think you actually might.”

Do you know of any fan fictions that are either inspired by the plot of the musical Rent, or have the Glee characters performing Rent (with Klaine in it obviously)?

I could only find one completed fic where they are in a production of Rent. Full disclosure: I haven’t read this one. Here are the FF.net search results that you might want to peruse (there wasn’t much on AO3). - HKVoyage

#8...

Okay, must stop now. It’s almost two in the morning, and I still want to write an update for psychologist on what’s happened since I last saw her before my appointment in two days. 

So, continuing the theme, the Donutverse is forever my kind of a rec. Seriously there is no end to the love I have for this verse, it means so much and has done so much for me. Just, no words. 

Read through There’s Not Enough Room, Dark and Dangerous Like a Secret, Kiss Me Like a Lover, The Silence That I Keep, Shadowing My Dreams, The Bitter Pill I Swallow, Of All My Demon Spirits I Need You the Most, Bring Your Heart Back to My Island and Time Passed Makes It Plain... Wow, I didn’t quite realise until I wrote them all down how far I’d gotten today, mind I didn’t do much else but read and sleep...

Kurt’s boys at Dalton: Ellison

In the Donutverse, while at Dalton (in the story To Touch is to Heal, to Hurt is to Steal, which takes place during season 2 between episodes 2x08 Furt and 2x18 Born This Way), Kurt provides discipline to five different boys. 

Ellison Rowley (he/him) is a senior who will attend Dartmouth for political science in the fall. His roommate Ingram is one of the only other people at Dalton he has told about being trans. While for years he’s been convinced he would have to remain stealth to get through high school, Ellison suddenly finds himself dating Teague. 

El comes to Kurt to talk about meeting Teague’s needs before they negotiate their own contract. He’s impressed with Kurt and they form a good bond. Kurt talks him through shibari and eases him into skin to skin contact. He’s impressed with El’s intuition and self-control, and even suggests he might consider finding his own boys to Top once he gets to Dartmouth.

when you read a fic that is a wip (or even completed) and you have all kinds of feelings and you need to know more.

I'm listening to Adam's new EP of covers, which is fucking fantastic by the way, and all I can think about is that he's singing about Secret Agent Finn in the Donutverse. Adam, you're great, but I will never not read Donutverse subtext into your songs.

Can't wait to hear the rest of the album - it comes out just after my birthday!

The Missing Piece in the Donutverse

I really had no plans for the Missing Piece to be an essential aspect of the Donutverse, but of course, as so many things did, it emerged over time. Most importantly, it became a symbol set to Puck's development.

Throughout the series, there are several scenes in which Puck recalls his father reading him and his siblings the two books about the missing piece. We discover in a flashback in Any Minute Now that the book was a gift from his uncle Samuel. Kurt encounters the first book when Toby reads it aloud to Duncan and Cory in chapter 24 of Bending in the Archer's Hand. Puck recites the entire second story, The Missing Piece Meets the Big O, to Adam in chapter 9 of The Breath Before the Phrase. And, in an extremely creepy way, it was subverted by Cy Lucis at Adventure Camp in Oregon as a method to persuade Puck to give up his attraction to men. In general, Puck feels positive about both the idea that one might find a person who fits so perfectly, and the idea that one might wish to roll on one's own.

There is a location in the Donutverse, a place called Half Moon Bay, which Puck has visited in his dreams and visions, and also now in real life. Lauren has a cottage there, on Lake Erie, and Toby and Will and his friends spent many summers there riding the carousel (there are many important references to Half Moon Bay in the Toby/Will story Just That Side of True, and also in Dance on a Narrow Ledge). While Half Moon Bay is a real place in California, it is a fictional place in the Donutverse. I have located it on Catawba Island, north of Sandusky Bay, on Lake Erie; you can see it on the Donutverse maps.

Half Moon Bay is a pivotal location in many ways for Blaine, for Puck, for Kurt, for Will, and for everyone in the story. I cannot underscore enough how much this imaginary place means to the events I have not yet written.

I had never been to Catawba Island before last summer, but I figured I should go and check it out. I drove around with my cowriter Flynn (the creator of Tessera) and we stayed at Port Clinton, OH while investigating the area. It is not a remarkable location in real life, and while it does afford a pretty nice view of the lake, there is nothing special about it.

One morning on this trip, while walking down the sidewalk to get coffee, I stopped. In the middle of the sidewalk was a rock, large enough to fit comfortably in the palm of my hand.

It was somewhat spherical, with a pointy edge, as though it had been rolling on its own for a while. I have no idea how it came to rest in the middle of the sidewalk, but you can bet I picked it up. It now resides in my car. I take it everywhere, and I pick it up frequently when I need a reminder that even when life feels especially challenging, I can make my own way—and I never have to do it alone. There are plenty of others who can roll along with me.

Sitting on an L-shaped couch and getting sentimental

[nubianamy]

Hey there! I hope this doesn't come across as super cheesy or weird, but I started reading your Donutverse stories wayyy back in the FF. net days (I remember sitting in my college parking lot in fall 2012 frantically reading the latest Archer's Hand updates before class) . I fell in love with your writing then, but life got hectic and I fell off of fandom trying to deal with it. Flash forward several years and crises later, and I went deep-diving in my AO3 history, saw your username, and decided to see how much I'd missed out on in the interim.

Literally, I cannot describe the way my heart leaped when I saw the "works: 46" (46!!!!) line in the Donutverse series box. And then when I saw that it was last updated this year?! I just about burst into tears. I have jumped back in with both feet; over the last 2 weeks I've read up through How Much You Pierce My Spirit, and I can't wait to read every last word.

Like I said, I hope this isn't super weird, but I'm just so happy that I get the chance to say thank you. Your writing is amazing, and it has stuck with me for literal decades at this point. I fell in love with your characters as a college freshman, and now I'm nearing 30 and rediscovering that love all over again. It is such an amazing blessing to get this experience, and I'm so freakin' unspeakably grateful that you've continued to write and share your writing for all these years. Thank you thank you thank you!!

That is not at all weird, and I’m so happy it has stuck with you all the time! I’ve been watching you leave kudos all week and I’m glad you decided to reach out.

I have so many stories in my head, and I wish I had enough time to get them all out. There’s lots more Donutverse in the works.

Comments are life <3
