* He's gentlemanly and chaste because [[spoiler: he slept with a guy at ''sixteen'', thought SexEqualsLove, and ended up strung along for weeks because the guy had no intention of taking responsibility.]] Which means that the Warblers' constant LampshadeHanging that Blaine [[YouNeedToGetLaid is too uptight]] and will [[LetsWaitAwhile wait till domestic-partnership]] to sleep with Kurt? ''[[FunnyAneurysmMoment No longer funny.]]''

Back to ''FanFic/HuntingTheUnicorn''.

* Trent mentions that seventeen-year-old Blaine [[YoungerThanTheyLook looks like he's twenty years old,]] and while a lot of characters think Blaine is MrFanservice, Jameela the nurse tells Morgan that [[RealityEnsues it's probably caused him a lot of grief]] since other ''adults'' inevitably forget that Blaine's just a teenager. This horrifies Morgan into remembering that [[MayDecemberRomance most of Blaine's unrequited loves are older than him.]]

* Nick was initially the CloudCuckoolander stoner of the Warblers, who was PlayedForLaughs against Jeff's [[StraightManAndWiseGuy long-suffering normality.]] However, his lying [[RealityEnsues constantly bogs down the police investigation,]] and Jeff is apparently used to Nick [[NoodleIncident coming to his house at weird hours because he got in trouble.]] [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness He's had episodes of uncharacteristic anger and crying,]] Hotch and Sansa are ''extremely'' worried about his emotional well-being (especially since Sansa can't give him therapy anymore), and it's implied in "The Tower" that Nick's aunt and the Warblers are enabling his risk-taking ''because'' they know that he's not as happy-go-lucky as he seems.

* The destruction of Blaine's Relationship Sue status reaches a new level of TearJerker when you realize that outside of the Warblers, Kurt and Greg are the only two people who genuinely care about him ''and'' are physically there to show it.

* The destruction of Blaine's RelationshipSue status reaches a new level of TearJerker when you realize that outside of the Warblers, Kurt and Greg are the only two people who genuinely care about him ''and'' are physically there to show it.

* Blaine leaped to Kurt's aid after ten minutes of knowing him. Ordinarily this would be a MartyStu trait, but it's revealed he didn't even ''consider'' the possibility that Kurt wouldn't tell the truth--if Kurt had been someone else, or even if he'd met Blaine before he stopped being a ManipulativeBastard, things could have gotten ugly. [[spoiler: [[TheFirstCutIsTheDeepest And they did]].]]

* Littlefinger has indirectly caused the trauma and injury of several teenagers, and it's pretty safe to say he's wrecked the family life of one of their friends [[spoiler: by forcing his dad to become a criminal]], all because they're in proximity of his obsession with a woman young enough to be his daughter.

* Nick was initially the CloudCuckoolander stoner of the Warblers, who was PlayedForLaughs against Jeff's [[StraightManAndWiseGuy long-suffering normality.]] However, his lying [[RealityEnsues constantly bogs down the police investigation,]] and Jeff is apparently used to Nick [[NoodleIncident coming to his house at weird hours because he got in trouble]]. [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness He's had episodes of uncharacteristic anger and crying,]] Hotch and Sansa are ''extremely'' worried about his emotional well-being (especially since Sansa can't give him therapy anymore), and it's implied in "The Tower" that Nick's aunt and the Warblers are enabling his risk-taking ''because'' they know that he's not as happy-go-lucky as he seems.

* Prentiss points out that Blaine probably wouldn't recognize the more complicated types of abuse because of his naïveté.

* Considering how close-knit the Warblers are and how low Blaine's self-esteem is, it's not hard to think that they give Blaine a lot of solos in-canon because they think he's intentionally passing them up. [[ThePowerOfFriendship Or they just want to make him feel better.]]
