Summary: It wasn’t the first time they met. It wasn’t the first time they fell in love. Kurt felt the truth of Blaine’s words. They’d been together before. Different names. Different times. Sometimes it was but for a moment. Sometimes it was a lifetime. Often it was met with tragedy. Tragic love stories desperate for their happy endings, destined to repeat themselves until they could get it right. And this time, Kurt thinks they may have done it.
1000 years. Several lifetimes. Sometimes Kurt and Blaine. And sometimes Konráðr and Bláán. Candide and Blaise. Corradino and Baldassare. Different lives. The same love.
Review:
When I first started reading this fic, I had no idea of how painful it would be. How much I would cry. It literally drowned me in tears. So yeah, proceed with caution.
But! I promise you it has a happy ending. At least, one happy ending. You see, this fic follows Kurt and Blaine throughout all their lifetimes, whether they're warring Vikings or Renaissance painters or Victorian men. And--well, to move on to the next lifetime, you do kind of have to die in the current one first.
So there is a lot of main character death--over the centuries, Kurt and Blaine's story has always ended sadly, and usually in death. But this fic just really reminds us of their lifetime now, the love they have, the promise they made to each other. It takes Blaine's famous proposal speech to the heart and beautifully and eloquently demonstrate what it really mean to hold hands fearlessly and forever and to fall in love over and over again, for all eternity.
