mizziette - Success!!! That was my ulterior motive all along - to convert everyone into Casey/Dex shippers. Red Ranger - I seem to make Heath the villain in all my fics. *shrug* pembie - Yes, you can let go! I'm glad people are surprised by the revelation in the last part, I wasn't sure if I could pull it off. JosieTash - Wow. Thank you. So much. HighwayUnicorn - I just adore Dex too much. Thank you for reading and liking. elikell - So happy you enjoyed it, even with all the angst and drama. It's not over yet. Zetti - Dex in pain makes you smile? Kidding. I show my affection for fictional characters by putting them through traumatic events. MatildaHunterFan - <3 Thanks! Part Nine on its way.

It's not a completely recent episode, but it did happen. It was episode 5342. That's cool. I'd be up for friendship/relationship/sharing more than one scene together between the two of them . Thanks so much for all the positive comments, everyone! Cross-posted from tumblr.

soph1303 - Thank you. JarlieFanEver - Thanks. I don't know if this pairing will ever be revisited, but you never know. Zoe - Thankies. HighwayUnicorn - Wow. Thank you, seriously. "Of course, Dex again!" - I do realise that everything I post these days is Dex or Dex-related. I can't help it!! But I'm glad you adore him all the same and all the craziness I put him through. JosieTash - Hehe! Thanks . Miranda - Whenever Ruby needs comfort she turns to sex; Dex doesn't know how to deal with that. I also wanted to write about them making out . elikell - I'm glad you enjoyed it. Zetti - No apologies necessary. Ha! Yes, interesting is one word for it. Thanks for giving it a go.

Can't stop listening to Cough Syrup. Can't stop. Won't stop. Just wanted to let everyone know.

Red Ranger 1 - The "or something" may be one of my favourite lines too. Zetti - Thank you for reading. MatildaHunterFan - Hope I can live up to the expectation. JosieTash - So glad you like! I'm both excited and terrified about what you think of the next part. Pierced Musie - Wow. Thank you. That's such a compliment. Carina - Thanks so much. pembie - I'm glad someone felt sorry for Casey, because he's going through some stuff too. It's probably affecting him more than he's letting on. Miranda - Yes, Neighbours (for once) is showing H&A how it's done. Hold on to your bobby socks, because the next part will be posted post-haste.

Gosh. Thank you so much everyone . Casey/Dex is totally one of my ships, if you hadn't guessed already. So here we go ...

^ That link doesn't work, so what were you trying to link to? But Valentine's episode was so cute and adorable and gave me so many awesome shipping moments but also ripped my heart out and shredded it into pieces and left me on the floor. Top moments: 1. Blaine! Obviously. Turning up with a heart-shaped eye patch (which, of course he found one), and basically suggestively serenading Kurt with Love Shack. Definitely favourite number of the episode, because it just looked like so much fun. I adored the moments of Blaine wanting Kurt to sing and Kurt pulling out his own microphone and tie pulling (so hot) and lots of hips dancing and "tin roooof rusted". 2. Karfosky's confession to Kurt was so heart-breaking. Feeling as though the only way he can actually acknowledge how he feels is through secrets and disguises and when he finally tells Kurt, Kurt is of course in love with Blaine, and it just makes me so sad because Karofsky looked so broken by it. He was trying to hold Kurt's hand for crying out loud! Devastating. Don't get me wrong, I don't want them to be a couple, it was such a powerful scene between the two of them. I definitely wasn't prepared for all the feelings being poured out. 3. Tina/Mike L-O-V-E. So adorable. They are the second most functioning couple after Kurt/Blaine, and they got a lovely duet and I adored the way it was overlayed it with Rory and Artie trying to one-up each other with trying to woo Sugar. 4. There were kisses. Brittana kissed. Which were wonderful and warranted and I completely approved of Santana's rant to Figgins about PDA between two girls and wanting Brittany to be seranaded. It's a bit too early for me to judge Joe as yet, but I like that he's a bit of a hippy, but in the end acknowledges, despite the fact that he's Christian, that "love is love". That was the theme of the episode, I guess. 5. Rachel's dads. They should have their own spin-off! They wouldn't even have to do anything, I would just want to watch them be them. That story about the lube and the rubber, I was literally shoving a fist in my mouth to stop the noises coming out because it was soooooo inappropriate, and everyone's mind went there and yet it was so perfectly innocent. They are so theatrical and have a perfect bond, and Rachel obviously loves them.

Am I allowed to talk about 'Michael'? If you haven't seen it, then beware spoilers! ... .. . I adore Blaine more than I probably should and also want to see pain inflicted on him, and I refuse to believe that he wasn't doped up on some serious pain medication in that 'Ben' scene. Kurt/Blaine continue to remain flawless, and also sexually frustrating particularly during 'Wanna Be Startin' Somethin''. While I really really really liked the episode, like one of my favourites this season,, having "Michael" as the theme was a bit dodgy considering how much Michael Jackson has already been done on the show (ie. PYT, Thriller, ABC, Control, Man in the Mirror). And then for them to pick some of the songs they did didn't make sense. Like, 'Never Can Say Goodbye' which seemed to have lyrics which completely contradicted what Quinn was trying to say - although she did look stunning.

Thank you so much everyone; Dingo, Cecil, Kristen, Lesley, Sabrina, Laura, QA, and Lore .

Flawless. <3 Seriously awesome colouring and wonderful photos.

Red Ranger - Thanks for reading and commenting. I'm glad you fellt for Casey, because he's just as lost as Dex is at this point. JosieTash - Thank you!!! elikell - Thank you for your sweet reply. Glad you like it. Miranda - All in good time ... pembie - I'm a sucker for Dex/April scenes, I can't help it. So happy you are still enjoying it. Zetti - Wow, thanks for finding time to read. I really appreciate it. Next part up shortly.

Wow. Thank you so much!!!

I"m not going to say much except, thank you so much for the wonderful and supportive comments. The next chapter is pretty much the big reveal, so uh, enjoy? I hope.

Well, it was supposed to be a representation of a heart. Technically one heart would be <3, but I decided it needed to be bigger so added more to it . Because your comments are love to me!

Red Ranger - Thank you! I think to extent everyone expects Dex to know things. pembie - All will slowly be revealed. Thanks for reading and enjoying. JarlieFanEver - Colleen is always going to say something inappropriate. mizziette - I adore the idea of vulnerable!Dex. I feel the show needs to explore this more - how he uses sarcasm and humour as a coping mechanism for his feelings of lonliness, and the pressure of not living up the expectation of his father. (I have a lot of Dex feelings) JosieTash - <33333 Aden_Belle - Thanks . Carina - Thank you .

Okay, so here we go. Some Charlie icons. Feel free to use/save/upload/credit. I can crop separate icons if needed too.

Thank you so much for all the wonderful comments, everyone! Yeah, sure. I don't really have many Charlie screencaps, so if you have any you want me to use, then please send them my way .

Exactly! I'm all up-to-date on episodes thanks to the internet, and I don't have to worry about Ten cutting dialogue or speeding up the tempo. It is so frustrating if you don't have that option. Sigh. I wish they would just keep up with the US and not touch. the. episodes. SPOILERS AHEAD FOR YES/NO . .. ... .. . Yes/No was okay. The Becky plotline was my absolute favourite, and of course Helen Mirren is the voice in her head. When Mercedes is with Sam she is so much more bearable to me. Any other time I honestly find her really annoying. Will/Emma, I don't really have much of an interest but I did, surprisingly, enjoy Wedding Bell Blues and We Found Love. The synchronised swimming was awesome, and I literally cracked up at Artie rolling himself off the edge and into the pool. As for Finn, I wasn't prepared for the episode to get that emotional. I mean, maybe the Becky storyline was in a similar vain, but it still had that comedic element, whereas the reveal of Finn's dad and then the dinner at Breadstix and the final scene got kind of heavy. I guess Finn is trying to find direction. Everyone is putting on the pressure to make decisions now for his future and he has no idea what he wants to do. I'm on Team Stay-In-Lima-And-Work-At-The-Tyre-Shop more than anything else, because that seems like a 'Finn' thing to do. Also, there is a reason why #RachelSayNo was trending on twitter.

Thank you so much for all the sweet comments everyone! I'm sort of obsessed with them making out.

JarlieFanEver - Thanks! Aden_Belle - Thankies . JosieTash - You're wonderful. Thanks for the quotes!! Red Ranger - Dex clearly sees that when people don't know how to help, they provide food. At least April didn't do that too. Miranda - I'm glad the mystery is still there. I worked hard on that part. So hopefully there'll be clues and bits and pieces as we go from here. Carina - Thank you! pembie - When I say it's the first time I've written something like this I mean in regards to the structure of the story and almost plotting a backstory and then ignoring it, because Dex obviously can't remember it. I've written a lot of Dex fics, so I think I get him, but this is different. I don't want to give anything away but hopefully it all pays off in the end. soph1303 - Of course April would come! Thanks for reading. If you haven't noticed already, I'm updating on Saturdays so that's when you can look forward to the next part .

Best wishes, BTTB. I'll bake a cake!

soph1303 - All will be revealed Thanks for reading. JosieTash - Thank you so much. Again, I really appreciate the time you take to pick out your favourite lines. It always intrigues me. Zetti - Hope you stick with the story. It will all make sense slowly. Red Ranger 1 - Thanks!! JarlieFanEver - <3 Thank you for your comment. mizziette - Yeah, Dex is baring the brunt of it all. Hopefully things will turn around at some point. ldscott - *hugs* Thankies. Carina - Thanks for the comment, Carina. Next part will be up soon. Stay tuned.

Thank you so much for all the wonderful comments, guys!

Thank you so much for all the comments. Josietash - It's so helpful when people pick out the specific lines they liked. Thanks! soph1303 - Thank you for reading. Carina - You're always so incredibly sweet. pembie - I've never written a fic like this before. Definitely something different for me. Aden_Belle - Kristen, thank you <3 Red Ranger - I'm glad I've got you intrigued. When I started writing even I didn't know where I was going with it! Next part to be posted shortly.

Yeah, that's totally fine. The colouring on the original caps was a bit weird, something to do with the lighting in the scene, so it's not like my normal colouring anyways. (Not that I'm making excuses ) I hope I got all the ones you wanted. Let me know if there are any more . Thanks for all the feedback on that last batch of icons. I've been playing around with circles and different filters and things, so who knows what'll come out. I definitely take constructive criticism on board.
