[Rachel is seated on her bed, legs crossed, a notepad in front of her, a pen between her teeth. For a moment, she appears to not know the PCD is recording -- but then she looks up, checking something off on the paper on her lap.]

I have a few items to address, so if everyone would kindly listen, I would very much appreciate it.

First, I appear to have lost my memories of this place. Luckily, I am a very avid journal taker, so I have been re-reading my experiences in this world. To those who I was friends with, I would like very much to reconnect with you and catch up. [And here, a watery smile -- a warm tone.] So, please, tell me what I've forgotten. And I apologize for forgetting.

[She looks down at her notepad and ticks something off before continuing.]

Secondly, I would like very much to know what attacked Blaine so we can have that creature put down immediately. If it was not a creature, but a person, then I will have you know that you are a coward and worth none of the kindness these people possess. You will be caught and punished thusly -- if you have the courage to come forward and say something about it.

[Another look down, another check mark.]

Thirdly, I would like to arrange an official schedule for the Glee club rehearsals. To anyone who would like to join late, please contact either Kurt or I to schedule a time for us to listen to you sing.

[A hum -- another check mark -- and, suddenly, Rachel's voice becomes very tense with annoyance.]

And speaking of Kurt -- this is item four -- I would kindly like to speak with you concerning my business immediately. I will be in my room. If you do not come here within five minutes, I will come find you, and I will not be happy about it.

[Rachel looks down at her list, before humming in appreciation, flashing the PCD a smile as she reaches out to shut it off, before she pauses.]

... and, Jesse, I made it back safely.

[With that, she turns the PCD off.]

My offer to share memories is still available.

[Video]

[somethingspecial]

Yes, please. The faster I figure out how to obtain my memory again, the better off we will be.

Would you like me to wait until you speak with Kurt...?

[general-mustang.livejournal.com]

[Ah, note taking. How cute. He's a little rushed off his feet, so the response is short and sweet.]

You'll come along tomorrow?

[somethingspecial]

[She looks a little confused, before she remembers -- right, the wedding, she had written about that...]

Certainly.

[general-mustang.livejournal.com]

[The confusion, though brief makes him just a little worried. Making her feel bad isn't his intention.]

Do you think your friend will be well?

[feelslikegaga.livejournal.com]

[He's very attuned to the PCD these days, so as soon as Rachel starts talking, he's listening, tensing up just slightly when the Blaine incident is mentioned, but he doesn't have much time to dwell on that memory because... well. Rachel is calling him out.

And man does she sound pissed.

So, with a sigh, he's putting down the flowers he'd been impeccably arranging for Blaine's bedside - and the boy had better be in bed like he's been putting him for the past few days. Blood loss is a serious thing - before leaning into the mirror, straightening his hair out, making sure his collar is perfectly pressed, before making his way to Rachel's room.

This time, he's actually taking the time to knock before pushing the door open and peeking his head around.]

If this is about Jesse, I absolutely refuse to be civil with him.

[She doesn't say anything for a second -- she's simply reading one of her journals. But when she's finished with the page she's reading, Rachel snaps the book shut.

When she speaks, it's very quiet.]

I wrote down what Karofsky did to you. What I saw, inside your head, during that week, just in case this would happen. It must have been humiliating, to have that happen.

[Her fingers tighten around the book.]

I never told anyone. And there's a reason why I don't want people knowing what he did to me.

[Because it didn't take Rachel very long to figure out that all of Solve et Coagula knew that Jesse had done to her.]

[feelslikegaga.livejournal.com]

[By the snap of the book, he's since moved into the room, shutting the door behind him firmly before leaning against it, eying Rachel carefully, as her entire demeanor really looks annoyed.

And when she speaks, he's figuring out why.]

Alright, two things before you continue.

One: you were never supposed to know about Karofsky. And it wasn't humiliating as much as it was... [Terrifying, but even Kurt has to draw lines. So he pushes his lips together firmly, trying to figure out just how to keep responding to this. It's so easy to fall on old habits and just have a screaming match with Rachel, but this is a friendship he desperately wants to keep]

Two: Jesse is different, Rachel. You have always gone weak in the knees for the first guy that comes along with a great voice and an almost genuine interest in you. It worked out with Finn, sure, to a point. But at the beginning your crush on him was as ill-founded as mine was.

And after what Jesse did to us-- to you, I don't see how or why you could possibly even want to talk to him.

[His smile is relieved, he won't even hide it.

About the glee club, it's of course his natural scene but he thinks of Rachel and how much she probably cares about friendship in those things, something he doesn't quite get since he was in Vocal Adrenaline. So for now he won't bring up the subject]

Satisfied?

[Glee Club is her life, man. :T]

[hasacarebear.livejournal.com]

Immensely, thank you. [He means it too]

[Yes Kurt, Blaine is being a good boy at the moment and he's sitting in bed with a slightly worried expression. Rachel calling out Lucifer...probably not the smartest thing ever. He didn't want to mention who had attacked him, trying not to have his friends get hurt because of him. But because of this, he might have to warn Rachel what she's putting herself up against.]

I'm not sure you really want to know who attacked me, Rachel.

[Video]

[somethingspecial]

Tell me.

[serenadesdragon.livejournal.com]

It was Lucifer.

I don't want anyone else to get hurt by going after him or anything. I don't want him to hurt anyone I love again but...attacking him head on or challenging him isn't going to do any good against him.

As I said before, we didn't know each other very well, but I thought of us as friends.

[Video]

[somethingspecial]

Perhaps you can tell me something about my time here?

[buntails.livejournal.com]

We were friends and in Glee Club together. I'll help you figure things out.

[somethingspecial]

-- thank you.

-=It's one of your Glee people, Rachel! WITHOUT A SHIRT ON=-

It is good to see you again! When ever you wish to train, I will be there.

[somethingspecial]

[Well.

Then.

Blink.]

-- right! Of course. I will let you know.

[istoppedtime.livejournal.com]

[Just watching. He doesn't really know what to do with you, Rachel.]

[Video]

[somethingspecial]

[Very few people do.]

Yes?

[bunny_flower]

I am afraid punishing anyone is rtaher difficult in this place, Rachel-san.

[somethingspecial]

But --

[A deep breath, because Blaine has told her who it was.]

... if I told you something, would it be secret?
