[Kurt is usually pretty composed when he posts on the network, but not this time. He looks frantic, exhausted and frankly ill. His head is in his hands, his fingers gripping his usually impeccably-styled hair as he speaks without looking at the camera.]

All of you, please.

Please don't do this. I'm begging you. There has to be something else, there--there just has to be.

[In case it isn't clear what he's talking about... :c]

I can't believe you can say that so easily. That any of you can just--

Are you out of your minds?

[hostage]

Nope. Just living in the real world.

[showbizpanache]

I don't appreciate your condescension.

[hostage]

And I don't appreciate being called crazy.

[showbizpanache]

What you're condoning is crazy. It's--

[He sighs heavily, rubbing his forehead.] Just please reconsider. Please.

[hostage]

Those psycho freaks won't stop hunting us 'til somebody stops 'em. And ain't nobody gonna stop 'em except us.

[showbizpanache]

[A long pause. He hates how this is making him see everyone in a different light. Everyone.]

Fine.

Just-- Fine.

[hostage]

[Oh - god damn it, he didn't want to make the kid cry.]

Look, just... Just stay home and let us take care of it.

[showbizpanache]

N-no. No.

I'm coming afterward to heal as many people that I can.

[hostage]

Yo, I get what you're trying to do and all, but after... That ain't gonna be pretty.

[showbizpanache]

You act like I've never seen ugly things before.

[hostage]

The cops'll be there too. They'll probably try to haul in every Newcomer they find.

[showbizpanache]

Oh god...

[Why, why, why are you doing this.]

[hostage]

Stay home, okay? Just stay home.

[showbizpanache]

You should too.

[hostage]

I can't.

[showbizpanache]

Because of Lisbeth?

[He saw them at the beach party. He knows what love looks like, even from a distance.]

[hostage]

Yeah.

[showbizpanache]

[His stomach flops because he gets it. If the Hunters had taken Blaine...]

Just-- Be careful.

[hostage]

Ain't a single one of us going down in that fight if I can help it.

[...Which he can't. But, bless him, he'll try.]
