35 [Accidental Voice/Text]

Jul 24, 2011 13:20

[There is a tinkling of piano -- a few stray notes -- a few casual scales -- before Rachel tries to sing softly to herself. It's obvious that she's crying. Her breath keeps hitching as she tries to hold back sobs, but Rachel, being Rachel, tries anyway.

The opening chords should be pretty familiar to anyone who has any taste in theatre who knows ( Read more... )

there is no song for this one, missing the people who leave us, jesse: not a soulless automaton, it's lonely at the top, the diva has lost her voice, let's sing about our feelings, total ecplise of the heart, caution: emotions run high, he had me at hello, !event: power failure, oh my man i love him so, a teensy bit selfish, this place is fucked up, damn soulless automatons, i don't own emotion i rent, my heart is too big for this, barbra streisand is my idol

In French, we say 'je suis désolée'; 'désolé' originating in the verb 'désoler' which literally means to destroy or to torment. As such, Mademoiselle Berry, I am pained on your behalf.

That is oddly fitting.

Quite. It is how sorrow affects us, isn't it? Indirectly as well.

Destroyed and tormented certainly fits the bill.

I may never see him again.

I'm sorry. Do you want some company, Rachel?

[Text] showchoirstar July 25 2011, 01:05:28 UTC

No. Not this time.

[Text] genkireaper July 25 2011, 01:32:50 UTC

I understand. Maybe he'll come back? I heard people do that. There was that Katara girl, after all.

[Text] showchoirstar July 25 2011, 03:15:53 UTC

He might.

[Kurt did, she supposes.]

Rachel...

[If there was ever a time she wished her Grace back, it would be now. At least then she could intrude on the girl and offer comfort- because Angels intrude and that's always a good thing. ... Right?]

[It's only because there is a filter that Rachel does not text Anna. That and it's Anna. Texting her would be more than mildly rude.

But Rachel is struggling to catch her breath. When she cries, she cries. She's not really the sort of person to hold that kind of stuff in.

Which is why Rachel suddenly becomes angry.]

It isn't fair!

[There's a hiccup and the ugly sound of mashed piano keys as Rachel tries to get a grip on herself.]

Why did they both have to go home and leave me here, I would never do that to them!

[She doesn't flinch, although the piano slam is a little jarring.]

I don't think anyone chooses when to leave. [And more than ever, she wishes she still had the power to do what she liked. She could send Rachel home with her friends, her family. But she can't.]

private | voice showchoirstar July 25 2011, 04:49:53 UTC

But why them?

Why couldn't it be someone horrid, someone dangerous, why does it have to be Kurt and Jesse?

[She sounds pathetically small and alone, now.]

Rachel...

I'll come over if you want to be with someone.

[She lost someone, too, recently; she knows how Rachel must be feeling.]

[Text] showchoirstar July 25 2011, 01:06:00 UTC

I think I would rather be alone.

[Text] buntails July 25 2011, 01:12:40 UTC

If you want to talk later, I'll be here any time.

[Text] showchoirstar July 25 2011, 01:21:34 UTC

Thank you.
