Monday: Recs To Get You Through The Week

And it begins anew, ladies, gentlemen, and otherwise-identified lovelies. Another Monday, another week--another chance to rec a few things to help us all survive it intact.

Trying a bit of something new today, which is THEMED RECS. Feel free to post any of your favorite stories/art/fic/etc that's you've seen recently, but beyond that: this week's theme is cuddlefic. Share with us your favorite fic of all-time that involves two (or three, or more...) of people cuddling, no matter how old, or recent, or well-known. It can be romantic cuddling, or totally platonic, or an entire ND dog pile.  Or hey, a Warblers dog pile, if that's what floats your boat.

(And if any of you have ideas for future themed recs weeks, such as longfic, WIP's, fic focusing on a particular character, gen fic, etc, go ahead and leave those down below too!)

(AU rec list! Give me all the AUs!)

Blaine, Sam, Puck, and Finn cuddle.

Kurt and Blaine cuddle, and Kurt marvels over dating a boy smaller than him.

Cuddling isn't explicitly mentioned in this fic, but I pictured the end as Kurt with his head on Burt's shoulder like in Duets. Basically, post-"Sexy" where Kurt talks about his sexual-harassment issues with Burt.

Kurt tells his and Blaine's child the fairytale equivalent of how they met. As it's a story being told to a small child, I imagine there is cuddling involved.

FINDING CUDDLE FICS ARE HARD.

Fic:

A Smile So Bright: Artie Abrams is bisexual and apparently has a type.
The Forty-Four Sunsets: Some friendships aren't really epic. But sometimes, that's just fine. (Or; where Blaine and Quinn sit quietly and talk sometimes, but mostly they fold paper cranes.) Background fic; starts from "Hold On To Sixteen".
Man of a Thousand Faces: Kurt/Blaine. Blaine Anderson and his insecurities.

Cuddlefic:

Sunbeam: In which Kurt cuddles a sleepy Blaine.

Vids:

Black Velvet: Kurt was always going to get out of this town. A character study.
The Distance: Finn/Kurt. A slow burn to genuine affection.
Not Your Toy: Kurt/Blaine. Kurt and Blaine figure it out. Slowly. Because they are both kind of self-involved and awesome.
This Is The New Year: "If you stop and think about it, Kurt Hummel's had a pretty good year." Kurt/Blaine + The Warblers.

Meta:

Reruns: S01, E01 Pilot: Ser/Estar.

BI!ARTIE.

BLARTIE.

BLAINE X ARTIE.

OH BE STILL MY BEATING HEART.

(seriously if Klaine ever breaks up Blartie is the only substitute. Or maybe Mike/Kurt. ACTUALLY CAN I GET A BLAINE/ARTIE + KURT/MIKE DOUBLE-DATE FIC THAT WOULD BE THE BEST.)

Bringing this back because I was hunting around for that Blaine + Quinn fic that I haven't saved and required because of Comfort Reasons, and now I have found it, so, yay!

(And it won't hurt if I re-read the Artie one too <3 <3 <3)

(Thank you for reccing them!)
