[showbizpanache]

[Kurt's soft, high-pitched voice pipes up, breathy and energetic as usual, and he sounds like he always does. The only difference between this post and his usual ones, really, is the fact that it's not a video-- But that could be for all sorts of reasons, right? Right.]

It was quite startling, to have to fix our Darkness-proofing this morning! It's lucky I wake up so early, really, or I might have missed it. [A small laugh.] I wouldn't eat any of those Skittles, though, as tempting as they may be.

[Avoiding the issue, avoiding the issue...] Anyway, I-- I apologize for not answering calls over the weekend. I've been very busy. It's never my intention to worry anyone, so I apologize.

Especially you, Ms. Vesper-- I'm terribly sorry. Can I take a rain check on that coffee?

My arms.

[mediumdrip]

No. Nothing about you is horrible. [Blaine disagrees completely. He pulls up a bit.] Let me see them.

[showbizpanache]

No.

[mediumdrip]

[Blaine touched the side of Kurt's face.] Okay. I'm not going to push it but you have to open up if something is on your mind. I know it's painful but there's no other way for us to survive.

[He's quiet for a while.]

I'm not ready yet. I'm sorry.

[mediumdrip]

[Blaine nods after a moment]

I'm here for you when you are.

You're not alone.

[Kurt nods, and finally something like a smile appears, disappearing after a second.]

Help me up?

[mediumdrip]

[Blaine helps him up carefully.]

Always.

[He holds onto Blaine's hand for a moment then moves over to the sink to wash his hands.]

Do you have any gum?

[mediumdrip]

[Blaine digs into his pockets. He has his wallet, a comb, and yes... a pack of gum. He takes a piece out for Kurt.]
