Case 12 ○•○ Holmes ○•○ [In person]

[youwear_ajacket]

[Holmes was only heading to the music room when he suddenly found himself tripping over something, his violin and bow sent flying. He lands heavily, but with a swift recovery]

What on Earth was-

[When  he actually see's what he fell over, his eyes widen in surprise. A Jack 'O' Lantern is lolling on it's side, staring at him, the candle no longer lit

[Kuja's lounging in the music room, the stereo playing at a surprisingly reasonable level for him. He glances up, grimacing as someone has to see him in the ridiculous corset he'd been placed in rather than his usual bolero. The boots weren't all that comfortable either.]

Oh, the recluse shows himself.

[Holmes rolls his eyes, before actually taking in what Kuja was wearing]

Hello...

[featherdrequiem]

[He sees you looking at his outfit. His brows draw so his expression resembles a T_T]

Don't ask. The hack writer thought it might be hilarious to make me resemble some hussy show girl.

[Ironically he's wearing more than he normally does.]

[Holmes hold his free hand up]

I'm not saying a word..so..why is it that you're here?

[In Person]

[featherdrequiem]

I came here to relax. I don't have one of those contraptions in my room, so if I wish to indulge.. then I have to come here.

Are you here to play?

[He points to the violin]

[In Person]

[youwear_ajacket]

I was - but I'm not really accustomed to playing for other people.

[He sounds a little disappointed that he won't get to play, but he takes a seat anyway, and amuses himself by tuning the instrument]

[In Person]

[featherdrequiem]

Oh please, by all means don't let me stop you.

[Kuja puts his hands up and rolls over on his side, mainly with the intent of dozing off. Violins were a very relaxing thing he found.]

[He watches as Kuja reclines himself. Well, he wasn't about to just sit there like a lemming and not play..maybe he could just do one song. After all, he'd been fairly high strung this week, and Kuja or no, he needed space to play.

So, standing back up, he positions the instrument, and closes his eyes as he starts to play..]

[Kuja listens intently, despite pretending to be out of it. But he finds himself amazed by the scruff bag's remarkable talent. He smiles to himself and rolls on his back, eyes closed, appreciating the melody.

Once Holmes is done he forces himself up, not really smiling, but there's a lighthearted hint to his tone.]

You're another artistic diamond in the rough.

[Holmes opens his eyes lazily, and smirks at the compliment, although he doesn't look at Kuja when he replies]

Thank you

[The song reminded him of John, and saying that playing it made him nostalgic would have been an understatement]

[Kuja looks to the ceiling, eyelids lazily hooding his vision. He gives a sigh and closes his eyes once more.]

Do you know anything else?

[In Person]

[youwear_ajacket]

[Making a 'tsch' noise, he answers Kuja's question with this;

[Once more he finds himself engrossed within the differences of the song itself, the melody the rifts.]

And you can just simply play these songs off the bat? I can't imagine they are easy to learn.

[In Person]

[youwear_ajacket]

[He nods, maybe a little smugly]

I listen to them, and then I practise a few times, and then it's stuck in my mind forever.

[In Person]

[featherdrequiem]

I see, you are certainly very talented.

[He sits up looking a little more interested.]

Even if you haven't played a piece for a long time?

[In Person]

[youwear_ajacket]

[Nyaa...compliments..Holmes noticably shies away a little when Kuja sits up, holding his violin up infront of him as if t protect himself]

Yes..the human memory is an extraordinary thing..once you learn something it stays there
