Wow. Thank you so much Kristen, Dingo, Stephanie, Lesley, QA, Sabrina and Laura. Coming in here and seeing your comments always does wonders for my ego .

I've just watched the video for and it is basically everything I ever wanted in a Blaine/New Directions number. Guh! I'm so happy . I've also seen the intro to I've been so bad at waiting through this hiatus, even though the summer one was so much longer. I just need the episode to come now! Because then we can get on to episode 5.

Thanks so much for reading and commenting, JosieTash. There's actually only one part to go, so I hope you like it .

Thank you so much everyone!

^ Thanks so much for reading, Barbara. Even though Dex is sort of nerdy and quirky in his own way, he's not immune to peer pressure. He's also a teenage boy, so. But believe me, even though Dex thought he want it right there and then, I don't think he would have let it get that far. Maybe some heavy groping, but nothing more. Story to be updated in the next few days.

JosieTash - Thank you so much. I definitely enjoyed writing the Spring Awakening quote too. Carina - Pssh! Stop, you're just saying that. You are seriously too kind. I appreciate all your comments. Aden_Belle - Thanks!

Thanks so much everyone! I'm glad people appreciate the awesome of Dex. There will be a lot more of him coming.

Thankies Lore, Dingo, Carina, Lesley, QA, Zoe, Stephanie, Laura, and Sabrina . So, I'm on Tumblr now. You can check it out/follow at http://meltedspoon.tumblr.com These are some things that I made for that, so I'm cross-posting.

Just a friendly reminder that spoilers should be kept in the spoiler section. This is for discussion about the character, their traits and current storylines. Speculation and brief mention of spoilers is fine, but they should be included as some part of the discussion,not just single posts. Thanks.

Absolutely all of this. I just ... I want more of it. That makes me sound like such a sadist, but I just am a sucker for angst, and this Casey storyline is really good; what with Casey being the one who does something -- just the once -- wanting to save his family, and he gets caught. Forget all the other stuff Brax and Heath have done, all the illegal shenanigans they've got up to, and always got away with it. Casey acted out of fear, because despite how messed up his family is, they are all he's got, and he was petrified of losing them forever. Now he's the one who pays the price. Lincoln is doing a fantastic job at tugging on my heart strings with this storyline, and I really like the Braxton family dynamic a lot.

Thank you so much for the wonderful comments; Sabrina, Lore (Right back at you! <3), Sarah, Carina, QA, Kristen, Dingo, WoahOh, Stephanie, Zoe, Barbara (That's an impressive selection. Thanks!) and Leyla .

Thank you so much Kristen, Miranda and pembie. I really appreciate your comments throughout this fic, and anyone else who read/commented on it. If people are still interested in this pairing, I might have one more story coming, slightly longer than this one. I"m still proof-reading and things, because I'm a perfectionist like that, but I'll hopefully post it at some point. Thanks again for the the feedback on this story .

Wow, thank you Dani. I really appreciate the comment. Unfortunately you need to brace yourself for the final part coming up. But as I've said, I may return to this 'verse at some point. But there are just so many fics I want to write and not enough time to write them all in... *sigh*

Thanks so much Dingo, Carina, Lesley, Lore, QA, Zoe, Laura, Zetti, Stephanie, Kristen and Bec . I enjoy spoiling you all .

Thank you so much for the wonderful replies Kristen, Carina and pembie. I don't want it to end either; and with the way the current Aus episodes are going I really want to keep writing badboy/Reform School!Casey & innocent!Dex forever. You never know, I might add to this 'verse in the future.

Thanks so much, guys. Here's part 2 of the Dex/Casey/Xavier bromance . I'm not completely happy with some of the colouring, it's a bit too light for my taste, but the lighting in the caps was a bit odd, so *shrugs*.

I really want to make some big long-winded comment about the awesomeness of that first episode, but my brain hasn't fully processed that it actually all happened. Like, I read tons of fic over the summer hiatus (unashamedly) and the storylines could have literally been lifted from a fan's imagination (which is definitely a good thing). Bad girl Quinn is so hot, I really do like the Santana storyline with Becky, Schue continues to be the worst teacher in existence (see: revealing your sex life to your principal) and BLAINE IS AT MCKINLEY. As I said before, I read tons of fic that dealt with the Blaine transfer and saw a multitude of reasons of how and why he leaves Dalton, and you know what? I'm perfectly happy with the reasoning the show gave. It wasn't money, or facing demons, or anything complicated -- It was just, "I want to be close to the person that I love." *sigh* I really do adore these boys. Favourite numbers were It's Not Unusual and You Can't Stop The Beat. I've been wanting Glee to do Hairspray for so long that this was so perfect, and Blaine's dorky yet seemingly charming dancing totally made the other number.

Wow . Thank you so much each and every one of you: Dingo, Carina, QA, Lesley, Kristen, Stephanie, Lose, Zetti and Sabrina .

^ For future reference spoiler tags work by: [spoiler*]insert what you want to hide[/*spoiler] Just take out the *'s and you're good to go. What I like about Casey is that he's most certainly flawed, and acts like a teenager, but he's fiercely loyal and does everything with a sense of earnestness. Like, he just wants to protect his family, and yes, what he did was completely wrong, and hasn't helped the situation in the least, but he did it from a place of caring. And I can't fault him on that. Also, I really like the 'angsty' characters, and Casey fits in with that perfectly. (Along with the Rocco and Aden-type characters -- Boys caught in difficult circumstances). I adore that Brax is the one pushing for him to have a 'better' life. But I have to consider that if Brax gets sent to jail or killed because of wanting to exact revenge, and Casey is left, how much better could his life be?

Wow. Thank you so much to each and every one of you: Lesley, QA (Yep, that's Jodi Gordon), Zoe, Dingo, Kristen, Stephanie, (I wasn't really a fan of the pairing until after they both left !), Bec (Oh, I just like to spoil you. Absolutely!), Laura, Carina, Lore (Well, the feeling is mutual. You are one of my favourites too), Barbara (Wow! You certainly went through a lot of pages) and Zoe (who I've just noticed commented twice. Twice the hearts!).

Carina - Thanks for reading and commenting . Miranda - <3 In response to your tangent/rant; the thing is, I don't want a gay character for the sake of having a gay character, you know? It's got to be done correctly and with the same thought and recognition as any other storyline. Not just thrown in for the sake of placating the fans. And at this point, I don't trust H&A to do it right. *sigh* Clearly, I'm hard to please. Perry - Thanks! They're not even a couple yet! And maybe they won't become one ... Aden_Belle - *hearts* Thank you.

The colouring on that last batch of icons is gorgeous. It works so well with those screencaps. Well done .

Please use this thread to discuss the progression of the Heath/Bianca relationship. Do you think they make good friends? Or should they be in a relationship? Discuss here. Remember: No spoilers .

^ I know!! So freakin' excited :D Like, I think there is nothing I am not looking forward too. I've read some vague spoilers and unconfirmed bits and pieces and everything sounds so awesome. Plus, it seems Australia is getting the new season only 12hours after it airs in the US. Hopefully, it stays like that for the entire season, not ending up lagging weeks behind like it did for Season 2, where is started on par with America, and then went on a massive hiatus over Christmas, with episode 10 airing in February or something. So ridiculous. Also, the finale of the Glee Project is on this Friday night if anyone has been watching it. I wasn't going to, but some people were discussing it online, so I know who wins, but it seems to be one of those shows where I find the whole premise and format really annoying, but I can't stop watching. Like, in the end the show is about what Ryan Murphy wants, which he probably could have stated from the very beginning and ended the show 9 weeks ago. Instead, they make the contestants jump through hoops, before Ryan says he isn't going to write for them. I know it's his show, and what he comes up with is incredible, I just don't like that it's a very subjective way of determining a winner. I just want all the Kurt and Blaine, pleaseandthankyou.
