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?

-=He stomps into the kitchen, keeping on his long sleeved turtle neck and white gloves.=-

There's fake creamer and a little bit of sweetner. What do you want in your tea?

-=He's not just doing this for her, but for himself as well. He has to warm up quickly.=-

[somethingspecial]

... sweetener is fine.

[She watches, hesitantly, and she sits down gingerly.]

Thank you for coming to get me.

[saintedsinner]

Yeah..

-=What he's not realizing is this ring is on a leather cord around his neck.=-

Can't leave you out there and freeze.

[[Off to bed for me! I'll catch the tag in the morning.]]

Well, you could. A lot of people back home would have.

[She looks Ed up and down, trying to gauge him. She's still not entirely sure this Adstringendum place is real... but Ed can be trusted, so she's been told, and he did come out into the rain to get her.

That ring doesn't escape Rachel's notice, though. She's a girl these things are important.]

You have a girlfriend?

Huh? -=A little slow on the uptake. Then he realizes that ring is out.=-

Oh, for fuck's sake--

-=Stuffs it back in under his turtle neck, frowning.=-

Yeah, I do. -=my, what a testy, defensive response?=- She got to go home, recently.

[somethingspecial]

Oh.

[Rachel is not one for sensitivity.]

Well -- it's a very pretty ring. She's really lucky.

[saintedsinner]

Yeah.

-=He'll have to wait for the water to boil before making tea. So he'll just pour himself in his seat nearby, pull the cord out of his hair and shiver. There's a slightly distinct metal rattling sound from him.=-
