A pass will not be cost effective. You cannot book tickets on DB Bahn for travel totally outside of Germany. PARIS-BLOIS: You can take a direct train from Gare d'Austerlitz to Blois, departing at 18:38 and arriving at 20:00. Or you can leave at 19:27, connect in Orleans, and arrive at 21:15. In either case the sandard 2nd class fare is €26.90. The discount fare tickets are sold out for 22 May. BLOIS-AVIGNON: Leave Blois at 17:58 and arrive at Gare d'Austerlitz at 19:22. It's a short walk from Gare d'Austerlitz to Gare de Lyon using the bridge across the Seine River. Leave Gare de Lyon at 20:11 and arrive in Avignon at 22:58. The standard 2nd class fare is €113.00. If you book today at voyages-sncf.com, you can still get a Loisir fare of €106.90.

I'm sorry but when the cheap seats sell out what are left are more expensive. There are cheaper fares available, as said above, further out in date. You are only a week away and I'm afraid you will need to accept that the cheap fares for your dates have gone. Sorry
