[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.]

[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?

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

Certainly.

[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?

I think he is recovering nicely, despite the incident.

That's positive.

You would have heard if it had been negative.

[Because Rachel is not a quiet person, man.]

[That makes him chuckle. He's imagined her to be a little like that.]

Yes, As I can imagine.

But enough of the depressing --

Are you excited?

[He laughs a little, hand flying up into his hair.]

Honestly?

Well, of course I'm excited but it feels like nothing is ready.

[Which it isn't.]

I don't think anything will feel ready until the event is over.

... No. I don't think I've fully prepared myself to feel that way, either.

That is normal, isn't it?

Yes. I keep telling myself that, too.

I don't think talking to your nerves really calms them.

You should try singing.

...

And risk breaking every window in the place?

Are you that terrible?

[Rachel: Encouraging as always.]

... To be fair, I've never broken a window in the past.

Then there is hope!

However, I don't think I'll be trying to sing any time soon.

Why not?

It's not something I enjoy doing.

How could anyone hate singing?

I don't recall using the word 'hate'?

... even disliking it.

[Sigh.]

I really don't think it matters right now.
