17 [Accidental Voice]

[Twelve Midnight.]

Is this a -- ?

[A dozen beeps -- whoever has the PCD is pressing an assortment of buttons.]

Hello? Can anyone hear me? Mercedes? -- has she not set up her voicemail, this is ridiculous --

[Another series of buttons.]

Kurt? Hello, it's Rachel, I need someone to come pick me up -- is there no service? --

[A much longer pause, before the girl dials another series of numbers.]

... Finn?

[As if she would rather utter any other name and, this time, her voice trembles slightly.]

I really need someone to come pick me up, I think I've been kidnapped --

[But when no one answers, three buttons are pressed.]

Hello? -- even without service, 911 should work, what is this -- I told Dad I should have switched to Verizon --

[And then, the PCD clicks off.]

[Other eyebrow? Raised.]

Les Amis d'ABC... Ah. To call myself part of them would likely offend Enjolras.

[One hand to her mouth.

Enjorlas.

Oh my Barbra, this is actually -- ]

You're really Grantaire?

[He can only laugh a bit, amused at her reaction.]

The only I know!

I -- so you know -- you know Enjorlas -- and Marius Pontmercy --

I must meet you immediately.

Enjolras, certainly. And Pontmercy, yes, when he is not fawning over his ghost of a woman.

Oh? Have I suddenly become popular when I have not realized it? What have I done to receive such an honor?

You --

[Luckily, Negi has warned her some people are fictional here, but -- ]

-- are an inspiration of mine, that is all.

[Cue eyebrow raising.]

...Inspiration.

Yes. Though, I must admit, Eponine is more of an inspiration to me than Marius, Enjorlas, or you, but --

[adglkhds she can't help bouncing a little bit.]

You're here. Is anyone else here?

Éponine? The waif that follows Pontmercy around like a sad, pathetic pup?

[Not like he's one to speak.]

If you ask if anyone else I am familiar with is here, then no. I appear to be the only one.

Éponine is one of the most inspirational women to ever come out of B --

[TOP SECRET INFORMATION, RACHEL.]

-- well, she is not here, so it hardly matters.

I've yet to speak to her, however, I have seen her around. If she makes her appearance here, you will be the first to know, since you appear to find her more interesting than perhaps even Pontmercy himself does.

Oh, I assure you, he will find her fascinating in his own time.

Will he? I've no idea as to his fate, nor hers.

He will.

[With much confidence.]

-- my name is Rachel, by the way. Rachel Berry.

A pleasure to meet you, then, mademoiselle. You may simply call me by the last name I have given you.

[... does he have a first name? Rachel stares blankly for a moment before she remembers that -- hey, he's real, and not a character, so she simply smiles and curtsies.]

I assure you, the pleasure is mine, monsieur Grantaire.

[He does! ~~The mun has simply taken one. Thanks, Victor Hugo, for nothing.~~

You are far too proper towards a man such as me. [Laugh!]

[Rachel is shocked and pleased. ~~I know right what a lazy bastard.~~]

Nonsense! As I said, you are an inspiration.

Inspiration? For what, might I ask?

For...

[A pause. Before brightening.]

For being a part of the reason why I press forward.

You mistake me with our Apollo, then, for whatever the reason be.

Actually, it was more Eponine... but all of you, really.

I ought to be flattered.
