"Can you move the delivery before our customers trip on it? I can't really lift that much." Sam could lift these boxes of comics like they were nothing but last time Blaine tried, he pulled his back and had wisely decided to make the muscle hunk do it instead. He was trying to get the comic shop ready for the new year - that meant inventory, new comics, changing the shelves around and all manner of chaos.
He ran his fingers through his messy hair and looked around at the shelves he was scanning, wondering if he could get it all done before closing and without deterring too many customers. They didn't have the greatest amount of floorspace.
"Maybe we should have shut the store today..." Or worked Sunday like they were supposed to, instead of getting super into Agatha All Along again. It wasn't their fault Tina hadn't watched it yet!

"It's not as if it'll get super busy until schools let out, right?" Sam knew their core audiences and it was largely teens or else adults that didn't live life styles that had them that likely to be out of bed before lunchtime.
He lifted the boxes easily, moving them over to where they needed to be. They weren't heavy for him, on accord of his very sexy muscles, he knew that. "Do you think it's safe to admit that we do have those new pokémon cards yet? Still seems dicey."
Scary world, with those scalpers around.

"No, we don't tell anyone, people have to come and discover it by word of mouth. If we advertise, all those neckbeards will buy them up. I want the kids to take first crack at them. Not that I'm not also excited to get some good pulls but let's try to refrain." It didn't help them make money to take their own stoke but sometimes they were tempted. Blaine pulled the yaoi manga off the shelf and stacked it onto the floor, crouching down to scan the books into their new inventory system.
"Remember the temporal force chaos? Nuh-uh, not again." Blaine looked up from the yaoi books and gestured over at the t-shirts. "Did you remember to price them up? We said 20 bucks, right?"
"Remember the temporal force chaos? Nuh-uh, not again." Blaine looked up from the yaoi books and gestured over at the t-shirts. "Did you remember to price them up? We said 20 bucks, right?"
"Yeah, yeah, I remember." Vaguely, anyway. Sam walked over to the shirts and did his best, glancing Blaine's way to make sure that Blaine was glancing his way so he could trust him to keep him on track. Blaine was handy like that. "Huh. You know, they have mostly gotten better at it but that right there has serious girly girl and giant hand man syndrome."
He diagnosed the yaoi novel Blaine was currently holding just from the cover, snorting. "That's so retro."

"Sometimes a tiny child-bodied man wants to be whisked away by gigantic hands. Don't judge. Everyone has their kinks." Blaine scanned the book and put it in the done pile, aware that he probably shouldn't be creating a giant obstacle of gay manga porn in the aisle but as Sam said, their peak was around 2pm and on a slow Monday, they were rarely snowed under with people.
"Oh... my God." Blaine paused and then held up the cover of Dear.Door 4. "We may have to put some of these behind plastic and just like... hide them." That was a lot for a cover and they were family friendly. Or, at least, tried to be. "I don't even understand what is happening here." But he scanned it and added it to the pile.

"Wow... What is even going where on that and why-- Yeah, maybe we need to put that behind a curtain or something. That's so slutty, Artie would blush." Which, in Sam's eyes, was clearly saying a lot. It was kind of ludicrous, so naturally he had to giggle and then immediately come over to Blaine to find even more ridiculous covers, pulling out some of the manga in his search for the most scandalous.
He missed the bell by the door ringing. A man walked in, carefully styled hair, black clothes, a dark brown faux fur coat and a shirt that was buttoned but somehow still showed porcelain skill between each button, all the way down to where his black pleather pants started.
Kurt Hummel stood in a comic book store for the first time in his life and he looked down at where some books were piled up, staring at the cover of the top one. "Oh. Wow." That was a lot more pornographic than he'd been expecting.

Blaine wasn't expecting a customer so when he heard a voice, he spun around and dropped the X-Rated yaoi that Sam had handed him by accident, staring. Oh. God. The guy who had just walked in was hot. Seriously - so hot. And, honestly, gay hot. Maybe he wasn't gay but Blaine didn't care. He was stunning. And Blaine was not.
He was standing there, messy from the days work, surrounded by yaoi, just trying to compose his thoughts. "Oh, hi, sorry! We're just doing inventory, I'm just scanning." He held up his scanner. "That's not ... appropriate, no, we're planning to curtain it and--"
Blaine turned around, intending to tell Sam to hide the porn but he got a bit too spinny with his turn and accidentally kicked his foot back for balance. This, of course, meant that he kicked the stack of porn at the customer.

Kurt jumped back on instinct as if that weird porn might burn him somehow, leading to him smacking a shelf and then moving his weight to the other foot to counterbalance. He ended up performing a half-pirouette and somehow managed to avoid any further accidents, standing still with a considerable distance between himself and the fallen porn.
"Er, I'm just gonna take that and hide it?" Sam felt the awkwardness, grabbing the books off the floor and starting to pile them into a box so they could decide how best to hide them away. Maybe they should burn some of it, get rid of Satan.
Kurt focused his attention on the cute guy that had kicked porn on him, partially to avoid looking at the porn again. Had there been tentacles? "Sorry. I thought you were open, I checked the opening hours on your website."

"I'm so sorry. Seriously, so sorry. We just don't have lots of floorspace. We are open though." Blaine smiled awkwardly and pushed his hair back, watching Sam try to remove the sexual nightmare material from the floor. Thank the good lord that this guy was quick on his feet. "If you just step over the books my colleague is picking up, I can assist you. We just have to do our inventory and this is the quietest time of day. No kids."
Blaine came forward and kicked the yaois gently to the side to make Kurt a porn free path into the comic book store. He had no idea why a guy dressed like that was here at 11am, he looked more like he should be on the red carpet, not here. Maybe he was lost - but then why did he check the opening times? Weird. "Welcome to Blam! We don't usually block our entrance with gay porn."

"Welcome to Blam! We don't usually block our entrance with gay porn."
"That's probably a wise choice, business-wise." There was something disturbing about seeing whatever a pokémon was so close to that sheer amount of lovingly and entirely too detailed drawn gay porn. Kurt shook his head and tried to move past it, figuratively, as well as literally, by stepping past the enormous blond hunk on the floor closer to the cute guy.
He wasn't really sure what usually happened in comic book stores. Maybe he should have asked Finn for help. "Erm." Great. He really had to gather his wits here. "I'm Kurt Hummel, I'm an editor at Vogue."
He looked the guy up and down and then added, for sake of clarification, "It's a fashion magazine."

"Oh. Yeah. I know what Vogue is." Well, that was a brutal slam of his fashion and probably his hair. God, he hated people seeing his hair like this when they were all hot and sexy. Usually he didn't get many hot guys in here and even if he did, he wasn't really looking to date. Even so, he didn't want to be a slob in front of this fucking handsome vogue editor.
Why was their a vogue editor? That wasn't fair! They never got fashionable people.
"I'm the manager here." Blaine introduced as he awkwardly rubbed the back of his neck. "I'm a Bl in the Blam. It's named after me and my friend. Sam." He gestured over at Sam and then cleared his throat. "H-How do we help you?"

"BL as in Boy Love!" Sam called out from the back where he was currently trying to hide the porn, even from himself, still ready to wingman Blaine.
For a moment, Kurt smiled, feeling a little less tense. All right, he could do this. "We have an upcoming issue that will focus on comics, graphic novels, all that. The medium, the inspiration it brings to and takes from fashion, how things evolved throughout the years, all that."
He looked around now, his fingers gracing the backs of some of the comics on a shelf. "The issue is that most of what I know about comics is through my brother and he's-- He mostly just reads Archie comics. He also likes Garfield." He had quizzed Finn on it yesterday and not come up with a lot. "Presumably due to a shared love of lasagna. And Vogue is no place for complex carbs."
That joke probably worked better in the office than right here. Whatever. He looked back at Blaine and tried a sincere approach. "I always prefer writing my articles through a queer lens. Especially at times like these. And according to my research, this place is the best store in the city for that."
"Blaine is super duper queer," Sam voiced in support, standing behind Blaine now, "And he wears glasses sometimes, so. Lenses. I mean, he has those really out there yellow shades, they're totally awesome."

"You can stop, Sam. I think he gets I'm gay." Blaine assured Sam as he threw his hands out and gave Kurt a smile. Hopefully he didn't think they were total losers, even if they were doing little to debunk that since the fancy-smancy vogue guy walked in. "But sure, I can help you as best as I can. I don't know much about fashion history but I do know a lot about comics. And you can sort of see the outfits evolve so that's kind of cool. I always notice it with the girls more."
They went through the horrible offensive and problematic outfits to lame attempts to fix it to real attempts and now a retrograde.
"Some comics are also always stuck in a bit of a specific era too, both in theme and fashion. Like X-Men. Do you know X-Men?" Blaine asked as he started to walk towards the marvel comic section.

"My brother had a Hugh Jackman poster that I maybe stared at more than necessary. He had the... Scissorhands. Like Edward." He did know some references, though overall comics really were a cultural blind spot for him. Not that he'd admitted to that when he got this piece assigned, he wasn't about to self-sabotage like that. "I know Spider-man. I'm not sure they're related."
He only remembered that Hugh Jackman had something to do with the X-Men because he remembered the X on the poster. "There hasn't been a gay superhero movie, has there? I'm waiting for one of those."

"Spiderman is marvel comics, like X-Men, the Avengers and Captain America." Blaine explained as he looked through the comics and tried to find the ones he was the most interested in. "There's not been, no. Too 'woke', I'm sure. There's been some queer representation. America Chavez in Doctor Strange or Phastos in Eternals but it's not the best. That doesn't mean comics don't have a queer history, it just means that people like to ignore it."
He held out an X-Men comic for Kurt to look at, smiling. He opened it for him and pointed at a certain character. "That's Northstar. He came out of the closest in 1992 as the first gay superhero. He married his partner, Kyle Jinadu, in the first same sex marriage in a mainstream comic book. And once that door opened, the X-Men didn't stop. We got Ice-Man, lesbian power couple Mystique and Destiny and even Escapade, a trans mutant. They're all mutants."
He leaned over and picked up more X-Men comics, opening up pages and setting them on the nearby shelves. "It started in 1963 and the fashion in it evolves all the time so it could be cool from that perspective. And it's got a good message. You know, it's about being born different and refusing to change. Fighting to be who you are."
He set down a few different issues and then opened X-Men: The Wedding Special on the page of Mystique and Destiny marrying.
"Plus, you know, they're homo superior. Kind of says it all right."
With a dorky smile, Blaine moved forward and pulled the marvel pride comic down and set it onto the shelf as well. "This one is a mix of heroes. DC and Marvel do one every year now. Pride comics!"

"Homo superior," Kurt repeated, mumbling it to himself. He should really be taking notes, hopefully he'd remember. "I like that. There's a nice title for a two page spread." He had ideas already, which was a lot more than he had had a few minutes ago. "Look at that, you're all I could ever want."
He smiled at Blaine and then realised that might come across as more flirtatious than he strictly intended. Ah, well. He was single and the guy was cute in a major way, in spite or maybe even because of the nerdy vibes, so he wasn't about to pull back too much. "Is it mostly X-Men then that has the queer representation?"
He looked at the Wedding Special and imagined what it would look like with actual models involved. There was potential there and he loved the idea of a Sapphic wedding, all the better to show off bridal fashion.

He wished. He would love to be all this guy could ever want but he assumed someone like this probably dated hunky vogue models or something. Hell, he looked pretty in shape, he probably needed someone to keep up with him. Blaine was not that sort of guy. Alas.
"You know, you said Spiderman before. I think I know something you'd like. They just got their first gay Spiderman and they're iconic already." Blaine moved across to the box he had been unpacking before and pulled out the comic he wanted to show him. He walked over and held it out. "Web Weaver. Edge of Spider-Verse #5. He has a passion for fashion."
He laughed a little and then smiled. "I guess it's like if you were Spiderman." Well... that was the dorkiest way to hit on someone. He was proud of himself for managing that. He blushed and then pulled away.
"There's also queer comics, where the heroes are queer, but they're not mainstream. I'm not sure if you're interested. There's also DC - so like Batman and Superman. Did you know that back in the day, Batman was part of the lavender scare in the 50's? It's wild."

"Because of him and Robin? That is wild. And fascinating. I know the Riddler, gay guys keep dressing up as him." Almost every famous gay person he followed, if they were any degree of flamboyant, tended to dress up as the Riddler sooner or later. He wasn't sure why. "The Joker too. Catwoman. Huh. Guess I know more than I thought."
Quite a few iconic reference points there. As he mulled it over, mostly wondering just how far he might be able to push this now that he realised how much material there might be, he picked up the comic issue that Blaine was holding out. He smiled. No one had ever compared him to a superhero before.
He held the comic and looked at Blaine. "Look, I'm going to buy basically all the comics you can think of that serve my research purpose. I notoriously over-research, it's my method." He liked to be prepared. "And... Is there any chance I could get your number? I'd love to pick your brain some more."

"My -- oh. Yeah, of course." His heart was racing in his chest and he had such butterflies in his stomach. He fumbled around and then pulled out one of his business cards. He turned it around and scribbled his number down. "If you need to know anything about queerness in comics, I can always help. It's kind of my speciality."
He always had pride events here, he gave out queer comics and always took in up and coming queer artists works to sell here. To him, it was important.
"I can tell you which Robin is bi and what the most popular queer comic ship is." Blaine informed him, nervously rubbed his hands together. It was just a work thing, no way was thus guy into him but if he could help spread the queer word of dorkdom, he would do it. "I'll find you some key comics and I'll try to streamline it for you."
He didn't want to overload him with anything.

"You've given me a better starting point than I could have hoped for," Kurt assured him, tucking the business card away and then checking his phone. Missed call from the boss? Yeah, that wasn't great, probably meant he had a crisis to handle. "Listen, I need to get back to the office."
Without thinking about it, he reached out and took Blaine's hand. He wasn't sure whether he wanted to shake it or what, but he ended up holding it as he looked into his eyes and he forgot what he'd been meaning to say for a moment or two. Had the Earth just stopped moving? Did time stand still? Something definitely happened there. "Can I come by this afternoon to pick up the comics?"
He was still holding Blaine's hand. Why?

He was still holding Blaine's hand. Why?
"Uh. Yes." It was hard to think, Kurt had soft hands. The hand was arm too, as he waited for Kurt to shake it or something but no, he just kept holding it. His heart was fluttering and he stared at Kurt, looking into his eyes. Oh no. He was falling. Falling for a guy he'd probably only see in person once more. Life sucked.
"I'll put them aside for you." He smiled awkwardly and no, he didn't want to pull his hand away, even though he knew that was the smart love. He just didn't often get this. Touch. Holding hands. Sure, he did it with Sam and Tina but it was different.
This felt special.

This felt special.
Kurt wasn't sure what the acceptable time for handholding was when he had a distinct feeling that it was really no time whatsoever. But Blaine wasn't pulling away and neither was he, so here they were. Past the acceptable time and strictly in awkward or potentially in dangerous territory. He couldn't have a crush on some guy he didn't even know. He wasn't in high school any more.
"Do you drink coffee?" Smooth.
"Do you drink coffee?" Smooth.
"Yeah, I do. I drink it a lot, actually. Sometimes too much." He found it was calming for him to pound a couple of a day and also what the hell was happening? Was he being asked out to coffee or was he just asking to get to know more about comics and why were they still holding hands? They were holding hands. Oh no. He lost his nerve and let go of Kurt, assuming he was the weirdo not letting go from the hot guy's hand and it was starting to make him look weird.
"Do you? Like coffee." Well, duh, obviously. Why else would he ask?
"Do you? Like coffee." Well, duh, obviously. Why else would he ask?
"Yes. Mostly latte. Soy or almond milk." That was so not what he wanted, a coffee conversation. But given the guy had just let go of his hand, belatedly, as if he had stung him, Kurt assumed that the derailing into discussing coffee as a concept was Blaine turning him down gently. Presumably he was taken or just not interested. Fine, he could handle rejection.
Eventually the Earth would move for him again without Blaine holding his hand. Even if that was difficult to imagine right now. "I'll be by around fiveish." He turned around and waved over his shoulder, awkwardly, he was sure. "Thanks so much for your help."
With that he got out the door and Sam came up behind Blaine, providing commentary. "You threw that game at the closer, huh?"

"I pulled away. I panicked. I blew it. I did, didn't I? I blew it."
Blaine groaned and watched Kurt move passed the window with longing before he promptly covered his face with his hands in embarrassment. "I thought I was being creepy cause I was holding his hand and I wanted to ask if he wanted and -- and what the hell? I put him off! I didn't mean to, I -- coffee?! Does he like coffee? He asked! Of course he does!"
How the hell did he always manage to do that? He sighed and then flopped down dramatically onto the floor of his very open comic book store, hiding half under the DC merch display. "Leave me here to die. I'm a lost cause."
