1 [Accidental Video]

[somethingspecial]

[The feed clicks on to show a girl dressed to the nines sitting on a rock. In the rain. In any other moment, Rachel Berry would appreciate the dramatic nuances of the scene, but for the moment? The girl looks scared, arms wrapped around herself, and she's shivering.]

This isn't funny. Whatever has happened, I'm going to figure it out. You hear me, Vocal Adrenaline?!

[And she's calling into the woods now, because obviously, this is the rival glee club's fault. She's serious.]

I'm going to get back to the performance hall and we're going to win, without your cheating! I demand to be returned at once!

[Her bravado is broken by a small sob as Rachel tucks her head into her arms once again, totally ignorant of the PCD recording her.]

Oh, Finn, where are you?

[Cute girl who needs comforting? Sirius is there.]

Need some help, darling?

[Rachel's head snaps up at the noise and she glares into the darkness, jumping to her feet. In heels. In the rain. She's pretty talented.]

Who's there?! I'm warning you, I'm carrying mace and I can fight!

[Look at her put those hands up. ... yeah, she can't fight. At all.]

Whoa, calm down. Look down, there's a metal box thingy close to you. I have one too and that's how we're talking right now!

[Video]

[somethingspecial]

[Rachel will scoop up the PCD and squint.]

... hello. Who are you?

[video]

[saintedsinner]

-=Oh god, it's a crying girl.=-

Hey.


You're going to get sick out there like that.

[video]

[somethingspecial]

Where are these voices coming from--

Well, if you'd be so kind as to tell me why I'm here, maybe I won't get sick!

[video]

[saintedsinner]

You're out there because you haven't found a place to get in out of the rain! -=Stupid girl=-

....


-=Sigh.=-

Look. You're in a place called Adstringendum. It's not anywhere from your world. There are these devices... these machines that we can communicate with each other. Why don't you pick yours up, huh?

I wouldn't be so loud. There are nasty creatures in the woods.

[Video]

[somethingspecial]

[By now, Rachel has located her PCD, and she stares incredulously into the camera. Hawkeye, why so badass blunt?]

...Nasty creatures?

[Video]

[followstheflame]

Such as killer rabbits, for starters.

Can you read coordinates? I know a safe place where you can stay.

[But she doesn't exactly look like a girl who can take care of herself. Oh God.]

[reckless-equine.livejournal.com]

At that rate, you're gonna attract the Killer Rabbits or those furry creatures from hell with that voice, lady. Or worse. Like that lady said before me.

[somethingspecial]

If you have something useful to say, then say it!

[Excuse. She's in a horrific mood.]

Voice

[reckless-equine.livejournal.com]

Sheesh. So touchy.

[Snickers.]

Just be wary of who ya trust. Not all of 'em have good intentions.

Hey, you're going to get sick if you stay outside like that.

[Concerned looking boy is concerned.]

[somethingspecial]

[By now, Rachel has gotten the hang of this PCD thing.]

Someone is coming to get me.

[funbarionsen.livejournal.com]

Thats good. There are a lot of nice people here.

[Offline] Ed only rarely brings people back home okay.

[al_truism]

[SUDDENLY, GIRL IN THE HOUSE. Al pauses on the way to get a warm mug of tea, eyes wide.]

A-Ah, hello! I didn't know we had a guest!

[Offline] And by that, he means never. Shall we continue on down here??

[saintedsinner]

-=still shivering as he waits to warm up.=-

She was going to bring the rabbits out with her caterwauling.

[Offline] Yes! Sorry, my suitemates forced me to get food. D8 /is sick

[somethingspecial]

I wasn't caterwauling.

[You think Ed is shivering, try being in a soaked cocktail dress.]

[bunny_flower]

... Ara ?

[somethingspecial]

[By now, she's in an actual house, but STILL NOT HAPPY, UNOHANA.]

Hello?

[bunny_flower]

Are you alright, child ?

[Later in the day, Negi has totally missed Rachel's first post, AND her coming back to the house with Ed. He's had his nose in a book all day, or has been outside training, and by some coincidence, has missed seeing her in the house every time.

Now, he's just headed to the upstairs bathroom to wash his hands before dinner.]

[Offline] Poor Negi. Poor ignorant dumb Negi.

[somethingspecial]

[Rachel is busy brushing out her hair and trying to maintain a certain level of dignity. She may or may not be singing to herself while she does this. ... okay, she's definitely singing to herself, let's be real.]

Just a city boy...~ born and raised in south Detroit...~

[And with a final yank, Rachel's hair is finally free of knots.]

[Offline] I know, right.

[exarmatio]

[And that wonderful rendition of Don't Stop Believing may have just been punctuated by a shriek.]
