I have a few, but the transition between 2x22 and 3x01 is obviously a bit staggered and confusing, so it’s hard to know what fits in with 2x22 and what should be 3x01. Or even 3x02, since the wedding video is in that one. I guess I’ll just make one post, reblog it for all three episodes, and people can read what fits their mood (if they even read anything, I dunno!).
Alternate Universes
Torture Without You, chapters 91-110 (and I’m half a chapter away from the end of the fic!). Canon did it way better, but if you want a happier ending for Roman than screaming at Jane to shoot him and then disappearing into a lonely future, there’s always this. Plus there’s Jeller smut.
Ink and Intimacy (Jeller, NSFW, complete multi-chapter fic) - in which I answer the question, “What if Kurt hadn’t finally pulled his head out of his ass and told Jane not to move to California?” 5-year time jump after 2x22, with no season 3. Mostly takes place in Los Angeles.
Forever Intertwined (Jeller, NSFW, complete multi-chapter fic) - Kurt does manage to track Jane down, three months after she goes on the run. Then there’s arguing and make-up sex. Set in Moscow, though I didn’t know it was going to end up canon that Kurt did tail Jane to Moscow at the time I wrote it! Still kinda squeeing about that one.
2x22 Episode Tag
In the Wake of the Storm (Jeller, NSFW, multi-chapter, WIP, hasn’t been updated since before season 5 aired) - deals with the first few days after the Phase Two plot is foiled. Starting from Jane’s ‘I love you’, of course.
2x22-3x01 Time Jump
To Jane and Kurt has Patterson, Reade and Tasha giving their speeches at Jeller’s wedding. Fluffy and light-hearted, complete multi-chapter fic.
Remember to Forgive (Jeller, NSFW, WIP, hasn’t been updated in forever but I still vaguely plan to finish it) refers multiple times to Phase Two, Jeller getting married, the wedding video, the glowy tattoos and Venice. But the fic itself is set much later in season 3.
A little bit late - but Stripped Pride fits about here in the timeline.
(Though they do talk about Reade’s leave of absence as though they know he hasn’t quit, so there’s a tiny bit of timeline-tweaking there.)
This fic is pure crack, was written to @chibinoyume’s specifications, and is kind of OOC in Kurt’s case (because I think if they’d had this case in canon, he’d have let the women handle it if the alternative was wearing THAT outfit, and would have stayed with Rich in the van).
this fic will forever be the best thing since sliced bread and nobody will ever change my mind about it
Author’s Note: I couldn’t help it. I saw that ‘mutual pining’ trope artwork and had to turn it into Jeller mutually pining for each other while shopping for and decorating Christmas (pine) trees. I feel like I should apologise for the terrible pun… Anyway, this is @holidayblindspot day 28, set after 1x06 but before 1x09.

“Umm…Kurt?”
He turned down the radio, glancing over at her. “Something on your mind?”
Jane looked out at the stalled traffic around them, seeming a little hesitant, before focusing back on him. “Do you have a Christmas tree?”
Of all the things that Kurt had expected her to ask, this wasn’t one of them. “Usually I don’t bother, but since Sawyer’s living with me at the moment, I’ll be picking one up at some point soon. Why?”
“I was just wondering where you’d get one. It’s not like they have them at the minimart.”
Kurt attempted to hide his amusement. The things Jane knew, or didn’t know, sometimes surprised him. She could put together a sniper rifle without thinking about it, but buying a Christmas tree was foreign to her. “You want to come with me when I get mine? There’s a Christmas tree farm just outside the city. I was planning to take Sawyer this weekend.”
