royalhummel replied to your post:seeing as how the term bl/ainchel had to be typed...
I call them Anderberry :p
anderberry tends to be pretty strictly used for platonic/brotp shipping, though, like how furt=brothers and kinn=romance... for similar reasons actually, since anderberry became a popular term because of the "anderberry siblings" meme
royalhummel prompted: How about number 4 (I’m flirting with you)? That would be adorable (and probably awkward)
So have an (unbeta'd) fluffy, silly drabble that probably sucks bc I haven't written anything in months
"Hey Kurt?"
Kurt put down the magazine he was reading and looked up at Blaine.
"Yes, Blaine?"
"Did it hurt?"
"Did what hurt?" Kurt asked, frowning.
"When you fell down from heaven."
Kurt rolled his eyes. "Really, Blaine?"
Blaine just shrugged and turned back to the counter where he was preparing dinner, humming along to the radio as if he hadn't said anything at all.
-----
Kurt had almost forgotten about it, until a week later they were sitting in their favourite coffee shop before class and Blaine suddenly blurted out: "Did you have lucky charms for breakfast?"
"Huh?" Of course he hadn't. When had he ever eaten lucky charms for breakfast? And why would Blaine even ask that? They'd had breakfast together that morning, so Blaine knew perfectly well what he'd eaten.
"No, of course I didn't," Kurt replied. "Why are you asking?"
"Because you look magically delicious!"
"Oh my God, are you serious right now?"
He was going to tell Blaine to stop being such a dork, but he was sitting there with that ridiculously cute grin on his face, looking quite proud of himself, so Kurt just gave him a judging look, or tried to at least. It wasn't all that easy to glare when he was simultaneously trying to hide a smile.

Kurt was having a Bad Day. Yes, it deserved capitals. First Cassandra July had been a bitch during dance class, well, more of a bitch than usual, which was saying something. Then he had somehow managed to mess up an order during his shift at the diner, for which Gunther yelled at him in front of everyone and then continued to pick on him for the rest of his shift. And as if that wasn't enough, he'd forgotten to pick up the groceries on the way home. Great.
Of course, when Blaine got home from class two hours later, he was his usual bubbly self, all happy chatter about how great his day had been, until he finally noticed how upset Kurt looked.
"Honey, are you okay?"
His first instinct was to snap at Blaine, yell that of course he wasn't okay, and why did it take him so long to even notice that? But Blaine was looking at him with such genuine concern in his eyes that Kurt made himself calm down first. He took a deep breath and said: "No, I'm not okay. I had a really bad day today."
"Do you want to talk about it?" Blaine asked. He'd learned by now that Kurt didn't always want to talk, and that forcing him to do so was definitely not the best solution, so he always asked what Kurt needed.
Kurt sighed. "Not really. Could we just... sit on the couch for a while? Could you... just hold me, maybe?" It was never easy for Kurt to ask for things like this, but he knew from experience that Blaine never refused, never judged him in his moments of weakness. This time was no different.
"Yeah, of course. Come here." And just like that, Blaine pulled Kurt in his arms, holding him close and making the tension melt from his body.
When Blaine pulled back, Kurt smiled softly at him, already feeling better. However, that's when he noticed the glint in Blaine's eyes. It was that glint that meant Blaine was about to say something really dorky. Before Kurt could even open his mouth to warn him not to say anything, Blaine went on. "You know, instead of cuddling, you could also come sit in my lap and we can talk about the first thing that pops up." He even wiggled his eyebrows, as if Kurt hadn't realized what he was talking about.
Kurt playfully shoved him in the chest. "Seriously, Blaine? Again? What the hell is up with all the bad pick-up lines?"
"I thought that was obvious," Blaine answered, looking rather smug, "I'm flirting with you."
Kurt rolled his eyes. He seemed to be doing that a lot around Blaine lately.
"I've noticed. I keep wondering why, though."
Blaine took a step closer, putting his arms around Kurt's waist, and whispered in his ear: "Because I'm a giant dork and you love it."
Kurt briefly considered shoving him away again, but he knew it was the truth, so he didn't argue. "You are a dork. But you're already my dork, so there really is no need for the flirting, Blaine."
"I know that," Blaine said, "I just like making you smile."
And really, how could Kurt argue with that? So he put his arms back around Blaine's neck and let himself be held by his dorky boyfriend.
Kurt stans hate Blaine, because he is in the way of their ridiculous crackships... Not that they would be canon anyway
Oh yes, because don't you know Kurtbastian is true love 4eva? I mean, obviously all those times Sebastian told Kurt that he wanted to steal Blaine away to fuck him were just a cover for their obvious attraction to each other! And Kurtofsky, clearly they're soulmates, that time Dave sexually abused Kurt and left him traumatised is okay because he really loves him!
It was so lovely talking with you guys, theatrevicki, youvegotann, and royalhummel. :)
I'm going to take a break from tumblr now and hang out with a friend, but if anyone wants to continue the discussion, then by all means leave me a reply or an ask or anything, and I'll respond when I come back (or sooner if I haven't left yet). :)
royalhummel replied to your post “hey, let's talk!”
My one true weaknesses is Cheerio, nerd, badboy/skank au's. I love them, especially with skank!kurt and Cheerio/nerd!Blaine
ah yes, I see a lot of those floating around. tbh it's not something I'd usually choose to read, mostly because I'm not typically drawn to the highschool-ish stories. I did try to read a popular Cheerio!Klaine story once, and it bored me. :/ I've read some skank!Kurt and badboy!Blaine stuff, and some of it is really good. there's a lot of it. maybe too much. however, although I had recently been referring to it as my "secret fic" because I didn't really want to say too much about it, I've been working on something of my own with skank!Kurt and a badboy!Blaine of sorts - I just tend to always put my own spin on the tropes and also opt for realism over romanticizing things like smoking.
