Day Two: Ice-skating!

Aah the Olympics! Here you are! ~Jen

Set of Feathers (Figureskating!Blaine/designer!Kurt Olympics AU) by @wowbright

World-famous figure skater Blaine Anderson loses his costume designer just before the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia. When his manager brings in Kurt Hummel as the replacement, Blaine gets more than brilliant costumes. He also gets another chance at love.

A story about falling in love as an adult, interwoven with themes about preserving your voice and humanity when powerful politicians are trying to fuck everyone over. You know, in case any of you can relate.

Similar Pair by knightlycat

Notoriously difficult ice skater Kurt Hummel failed in his attempt to win the first gold medal for the new sport of Similar Pairs Skating. Charismatic Blaine Anderson needs a fresh start after an injury prematurely ended his promising hockey career. Can they put aside their personal conflicts and help make each other’s dreams come true? AU based on the movie The Cutting Edge.

Only a Fortnight in Your Arms by zavacado

Their entire lives have been devoted to excelling. For Blaine Anderson, finding his own perfection in the sport that helped save his life has been the only reason he lives and breathes. That is until he reaches the ultimate place where champions are tested, and realizes there’s so much more life out there than gold medals. Olympic!Klaine AU

Skate On by @tonks42

Kurt Hummel has worked hard to move up in the ranks of competitive figure skaters, but when a scandal with his coach throws him for a loop, Kurt finds himself halfway across the country training alongside fellow skater Blaine Anderson.

Jump by @scatter-the-stars

It’s been over a year since the injury that took away his dream. No longer able to take the questions and concerns, Kurt has escaped to a small town to think about what he wants. What he doesn’t expect to find are Blaine and his little girl, who both quickly steal his heart. And it’s not long before he has to make the choice of where his heart truly lies.

Undisclosed Desires by Hildigunnur

“By day I had to skate so much at Niagara, being at that time quite sure that life would never attain its full fruition until I had passed all three tests of the National Skating Association (English style), and could wear a badge of pure gold (silver and copper discarded) in my buttonhole. So the whole morning would be spent, like the aspiring Christian, with “the frequent fall,” and I would hobble away to lunch with entrancing people and go back for the afternoon skating session (session it was!) at three, and skate till it was almost a relief to hear the gong announce closing time.”

EF Benson, Mother

Astrid's trying to encourage Andi to give ice-skating a try - but skating is not easy when you literally have two left feet!

Part Two of the Sunsets, Sunrises and Snowflakes Series.

Harry’s been a figure skater since the day he could walk whilst his boyfriend, Louis, can barely glide across the ice - unless you count the time he did so on his hands and knees. So when the announcement of a pop-up ice-rink courtesy of the winter wonderland charity comes around, Louis is the least bit thrilled. It takes a fair amount of pleading, a heap of reassurance and an agreement to teach, before Louis agrees to accompany him.
