still being gleeful

There really is no reasonable explanation as to why I love this show so damn much suddenly. Anyway, enjoy more Glee-related stuff in this post.

Anyway, for all the bad Glee fic I've been reading lately, there are a still a few gems that are worth sharing. So, here, have some recs:

andbless_mybaby broke my Glee fic cherry with waging wars to shake the poet (Puck/Rachel, rated R). It's angsty and smutty, for the most part, but punctuated with random moments of humor (mostly at Rachel's expense... and Emma's...). Anyway, if you've read any of her Heroes fics, you know andbless_mybaby can bring it like nobody's business. And by "it" I mean awesomeness.

don't do sadness is heavy on the Puck/Rachel UST without being outright shippy. It also has some nice Quinn/Rachel moments.

I'll Have to Say I Love You in a Song is a Puck-centric fic which explores his relationships with the other gleeks. (Note: The link will take you to the author's memorable entries, where all five parts are linked. I would have just linked the first part but it lacks linkage to the others.)

If anyone else has found some great stuff, please share! I'm not picky about ships or characters and I have yet to find really good fic that focuses on characters besides Puck. Dude's nice to look at and all (and he can "Sweet Caroline" me anytime... totally gonna make that a double entendre somehow), but I need some variety!

Now for the sake of complete silliness - I've decided that Howard Bamboo is my fandom bicycle. I might have to work on satisfying some Rule 34...
