filled for a request over at rq_meme on LJ. "After giving Beth up for adoption, Quinn is broken. Her parents aren't separating, and they aren't taking her back. She's living with Mercedes, and in order to prepare for college and the fees, she starts prostituting around Lima. Men, women, anyone who will pay for it. Rachel finds out somehow, and tries to help Quinn. After nothing she does helps, Rachel starts blowing through her own savings, purchasing Quinn for nights. I'd like it to be dark, but to have a happy Faberry ending. Bonus points if Karofsky tries to publicly and rudely buy sex from Quinn, and Rachel finally loses her cool and lays into him. More bonus points if when Rachel buys Quinn for the night, Quinn tries to force herself on the brunette, saying she paid for her, thus she paid for sex. Rachel, though shamefully tempted (and secretly in love with Quinn) makes her stop, telling her she just wants to talk."

warning: vague depictions of physical abuse and a fairly realistic look at prostitution. Pretty Woman this isn't.

in chapter x ("every time that you're not next to me"), those vague depictions get pretty graphic. steel your stomachs.

in the epilogue: chapter xii ("it just won't stop, it just won't go away"), there's sexytimes. if you find that icky, then I'd suggest skipping over it.

random notes: why am I writing for Glee again? oh, right, because Dianna Agron is a stone fox and I repay her by turning Quinn into a prostitute. chapter titles are from "Santa Monica" by Theory of a Deadman. enough Brittana to wet your lips with, but 100% Faberry and 110% wrong. one-way trip to special hell right this way.

opening description
* the lyrics on the title page are from 'Don't Tell Me' by Madonna.

iv. my bones will break and my heart will give -
* the song Rachel listens to is "All I Ask Of You - Reprise" from Phantom of the Opera.

viii. even if we thought it would last -
* the monologue Quinn listens to is from Shakespeare's 'As You Like It.' Act II, scene vii, lines 139 - 142.
* Quinn's quick reference to Faust is referencing, of course, Goethe's Faust - in this case, Rachel making a "deal with the devil" (Mephistopheles = Santana)
* the trio of tragic heroes Quinn references are: Romeo (Shakespeare's Romeo & Juliet), Tristram (the Celtic legend of Tristram and Iseult, or Tristan and Isolde) and Lancelot (Thomas Malory's 'Le Morte d/Arthur')
* the poem Quinn helps Brittany with is 'The Highwayman' by Alfred Noyes

x. every time that you're not next to me -
* welp, I wrote this after watching both the trailer and the infamous rape scene from the movie Monster (2003; Charlize Theron and Christina Ricci), but in truth I only saw about half of that scene since I couldn't handle it anymore, and you should not watch it if you want to sleep. ever.

xi. I remember the day you told me it's over
* Rachel's 'bitches' insult isn't mine, I could never come up with anything that awesome. credit goes to one Dave Chappelle.
* 'not always there when you call but I'm always on time' is from the song called, funnily enough, 'Always On Time' by Ja Rule and Ashanti. (don't judge me.)
* the line calling hope 'the thing with feathers' comes from the poem 'Hope' by Emily Dickinson.

xii. it just won't stop, it just won't go away
* tell me why I wrote this while listening to 'Tonight' by Enrique Iglesias on repeat (yes, the explicit version). oh, that's right, because I'm a sick, sick dog and my inspiration comes from the wildest places. come on, you can't hear Rachel singing it?

you know my motivation given my reputation, please excuse me I don't mean to be rude

... no? just me? yeah, thought so.
