"Thanks," Karofksy said gruffly, placing a small vase of wildflowers on her desk.
"For?" Quinn asked, surprised.
"Nigel loved Berry's show last night," he said, happily. "Meeting Nigel's old boss and her girlfriend afterward at the party was a surprise but apparently Berry knows them."
"I'm glad," Quinn said. "Rachel seems to know a lot of people. Her high school craziness really works for her now."
Karofsky snorted. "How did the roommate thing happen anyway?" he asked idly, while putting away his things. "The two of you were like oil and water back in Lima."
Quinn paused for a second, trying to think of a simple way to explain the rather convoluted relationships that connected her life to Rachel's. "It's a little complicated," she said finally. "How much do you remember about me in high school?"
"Cheerleader. Got pregnant. Glee. Hated Rachel," he said. "Had my own issues. Didn't pay too much attention to everyone else."
"Except the bullying," Quinn said.
Karofsky grimaced. "Except the bullying."
"Rachel's mother adopted my baby," Quinn said. "I got to know her after high school. She heard that Rachel needed a roommate, and recommended me. Rachel was desperate and agreed to share an apartment."
Notes: I originally planned for several scenes at the theater with Rachel, Dave, Miranda, Nigel, and Andy but I couldn't make them work. Hence the vague references in #76 and #77
