I gave up on Glee a long time ago (like... after the first half of season 1), but I like where you took this a lot more. I think that the writers wasted an excellent opportunity with Karofsky, they built him up and developed him in really subtle ways and then he just fucking disappeared from sight for the longest time.

There's so much in this that I really, really enjoy. Mostly because there's a lot to empathize with if you've ever been a person who has been in a place where you truly have hated yourself. It's something that spirals outward until you either lose control or lose momentum. The worst part is that it hurts more people than just yourself, and you never really wanted shit to go down like that. But it's just another reason why you're a fuck up, right?

I didn't cry while reading this, but I'm starting to tear up now that I'm commenting because the fact that Karofsky managed to work his way through it, managed to be happy? I think too many people underestimate what a huge thing that is. It's more than just sweet that he managed to get there, I find myself happy for him, too.

tl;dr version: I like your Glee better than Actual Glee.
