19 [Accidental Video]

[The video cuts on in the middle of Rachel brushing out her hair, watching herself in her mirror. There's a large macaw in the corner, which is the only sign of the event being in her room.

She doesn't seem focused on the PCD -- or the parrot -- but instead on her image in the mirror. Rachel sighs -- the humidity is causing her hair to be curlier and poofier than it normally is and the amount of moisture certainly isn't doing anything for her skin. A tug or two through and the brush makes it through her hair, but the girl looks less than satisfied.

Until Rachel cocks her head to the left and curls her fingers around the handle of her brush and begins to sing to herself, softly, at first, but the more she sings, the louder and more passionate it becomes:]


My mama told me when I was young, we're all born superstars. She rolled my hair and put my lipstick on, in the glass of her boudoir --

[A neat spin and Rachel is full out singing into her mirror -- and seems to be doing a dance, along with her song -- and it appears perfectly choreographed.]

There's nothin' wrong with lovin' who you are, she said, 'cause he made you perfect, babe, -- so hold your head up, girl, and you'll go far -- listen to me when I say -- !

[The brush is long since forgotten on the dresser, by this point, as she continues her dance.]

I'm beautiful in my way, 'cause God makes no mistakes, I'm on the right track, baby, I was born this way -- don't hide yourself in regret, just love yourself and you're set, I'm on the right track, baby, I was born this way --

[The PCD times out soon after -- the network has apparently had enough diva for the time being.]

That didn't work out too well, did it? -=Ignoring his own interruption, thank you.=-

Considering she thought you were talking about someone else.

Great. It's done now.

-=he just... if he was important enough, he'd be remembered by now, right? Well, his own logic says if he wasn't remembered now, it wasn't going to happen=-

[Sometimes, people just need a push, Ed.]

... maybe some good will come of it.
saintedsinner: (Blah blah blah whatever)

Sure. Whatever.


-=Last time he offered a 'push' he was rejected.=-

... don't give up on her, Edward. She's something special.

[He's silent for a moment, and then there's a soft laugh, lacking in any kind of humor.]

I should... go make sure Marge has enough hay.

[... hell, now he feels terrible.

Whenever Ed comes out, there will be a piece of loose leaf notebook paper on his door, and Negi won't be there.

The paper just says one word. "Sorry."]
