"Exhaustion," Kurt explained. "Dizziness. Headaches. I get extremely cold, and sometimes I cough up blood." He took note of Finn's discomfort, but it was nothing he hadn't expected.

"Anyway, they...they've caused me a bit of trouble. I'd rather not go into detail with either case, but-- It's important that you know that about me. As for going to jail... It was really an elaborate accident, so you don't need to worry. I haven't turned into a homicidal maniac or anything."

There. That ruled out that subject and now there was only one more left. Unfortunately, it was the one Kurt was most reluctant to talk about. He stepped forward to check on the rice again, stalling for time.
