This may seem an odd request, can you (or anyone else out there) recommend a really tender or loving, or even just fun sex scene from any klaine fic. I’m trying to get it some idea how to write a loving scene without it just being smut!!

Sorry that it has taken me a while to get back to you. I asked a few people in fandom to help me with the response. Everyone (including me) felt that @gleefulpoppet does a wonderful job writing smut scenes that have a great balance of hotness, love, and fluff. The author is excellent at using tags to indicate the level of smut. I’m listing one here to get you started. 

I also suggest you browse our First Time tag. Many of the fics have loving smut scenes. Readers, can you put your recommendations as a reply to this post? - HKVoyage

Blackbird Body Art by @gleefulpoppet

AU. Kurt owns one of the most sought after body art shops in all of New York. Blaine is celebrating a fresh start and wants to mark the occasion in ink. After two months of waiting for an opening and weeks of searching for the perfect design, he has an appointment at 11 AM. The only problem? New York is having what is being hailed as “The Great Deluge,” it hasn’t rained this much in recorded history.

Crema Verse by twobirdsonesong

Kurt’s just landed a job at Vogue as Carrie Bradshaw’s assistant. One of his tasks is to bring her coffee in the morning. Enter Blaine, the barista. This is the story of how they change each other’s lives.

Syrup and Honey by @heartsmadeofbooks

Kurt Hummel is 25 years old when he finds himself being the owner of the bakery he had been dreaming about his whole life, just in time to sweeten up Blaine Anderson's days.

~~~~~

Near Misses by flaming_muse

Kurt and Blaine could easily not have met on a staircase in high school. They could have met a few years later in college instead.

This story is AU from within 2x06 ("Never Been Kissed"), with many of the broad strokes of canon remaining except where I thought they would be different because of the AU or other factors. Near Misses itself takes place in Blaine's first year of college, starting about a year from now. There are some spoilers through 3x22 (“Goodbye”).

When The Time Is Right by lostinfictionalworlds

Kurt is 25, successful, handsome and sought after by all, but still looking for more, Bar Owner Blaine 10 years his senior is on the exact same journey of looking for love and life. A/U Rated M for use of swearing, sexual references and scenes of a heavy sexual nature. Disclaimer: I do not own anything. Oneshots now on-going for this verse, posted as separated stories but tagged.

"This is family. And it’s like the first sip of hot chocolate on a cold and stormy winter night when the rain is lashing harshly against the windows and the wind is howling around the eaves. It slides along his skin, down his limbs, and sinks into every cold and lonely place left inside of him."

Any Other Name by twobirdsonesong

[979w | General]

Stiles just wants to know what he smells like to Derek.

Note: This fic is so lovely. I actually had to scroll up to the top when I was halfway through to check it was under 500 kudos because I was sure I must have strayed way over the limit somehow. The Derek feels will hit you in the heart and there’s such a cosy, fluffy ending. I keep going back to reread it.

so i'm making home-made healthy fruit gummies this weekend in little heart and whale and flower shaped moulds and here's the recipe!!

Ingredients:

Fruit Puree: 180g (Strawberries, Blueberries & Orange or other desired fruits)

Medjool Dates: 40g (Pitted & soaked)

Honey: 50g

Cold Water: 60g

Unflavored Gelatin: 50g

Lemon Juice: 10g

Instructions:

1. Bloom: Sprinkle gelatin over cold water. Let it sit for 10 mins until it’s a thick sponge.

2. Blend: Combine fruits, dates, honey, and lemon in a blender or processor until completely smooth.

3. Simmer: Heat puree in a pan on low for 5 mins to concentrate the flavor.

4. Melt: Remove from heat, add the gelatin sponge, and whisk until melted.

5. Set: Fill molds and chill for 2 hours in the fridge.

6. Pro Tip: Leave them to air-dry on the kitchen counter over the days you eat them for maximum chew. We kept the whole fruit pulp and added dates. This keeps the fiber intact, which helps slow down the absorption of the natural sugars. No blood sugar spikes and crashes, just sweet treats!

after all is said and done, is it weird that I still want Darren Criss to EGOT? (I'm definitely on anon don't look at me)

i perceive thee not, anon!

and honestly SAME-O, bc all i will think about when it happens will be all the bitter, sad assholes from ye olde days of glee fandom who said with their whole chest that he was a bad, talentless actor purely bc they wanted their random blonde white boy to be the love interest lmfaooo

and yea, i will throw my head back and cackle heartily if and when he does win, bc it feels good to be a winner even if the race ended 10 years ago lbr
