Oh, to be a fly on the wall when Blaine finally has a conversation with Tina. *shudders*
I loved this piece. I loved that you tackled it, first of all, because what happened with Tina and Blaine in last week's episode crossed a serious line, so this needed to be addressed. I don't know if they'll deal with it on the show (I have doubts, though I wish they'd try), so I'm really glad to see someone deal with it in fanfic. Also, I loved the Artie POV -- it was wonderfully in his 'voice,' and demonstrated a complex view of TIna from his POV, in a way that makes total sense, given their history. And I loved that Artie kept trying to get through to her, and I loved that Artie talked to Blaine when he saw things were going too far and TIna wasn't listening, and I loved that what Tina did came to light. The way you described the lightbulbs going off for Blaine, throughout his conversation with Artie, was excellently described. I could practically picture his face and the dawning realization (and horror). This entire piece was just spot-on what I was looking for in regard to that bit of episode insanity, and I would love if you tackled a sequel in which Blaine confronts Tina. But even if you don't, this was perfect and makes for just the right sort of follow-up to the episode. Thanks for writing it, and sharing it with us!
