✰002 - My audience loves me, and I love them, and they love me for loving them

I may have mentioned this already, but I need to sing. Singing is the fire that fuels my soul. If you let that fire out, I'll wither and die left alone in the forest to turn to ash and dust until some unsuspecting deer shows up, looking for food, and eats that ash, and then chokes to death ( Read more... )

[An artist, huh? Lamb likes artists. She watches the feed, silently listening to the song.

When Rachel is finished she applauds.]

Oh--!

Thank you.

No, thank you. It has been quite a long time since I have seen such remarkable talent, especially from a girl so young.

[Well, girls so young in Rapture normally don't have a broad vocal range beyond what sounds like car parts being thrown into a large meat grinder, but why cheapen the compliment by bringing up that comparison?]

I've been working on my singing for, well, all of my life.

[She listened to Rachel sing, watching in awe.]

Ahhh!

Y-You're very good, afu.

Thank you! Do you want to join? I can teach you how to sing!

Ahh...I don't know.

[Her past experiences with singing weren't the most pleasant - especially when she was induced to sing by magical holly.]

It could be really fun.

What's a 'glee club'? I don't sing much, but I'm a star dancer!

dontrainonmy June 27 2010, 21:02:38 UTC

A Glee Club is basically a club for a Show Choir, we dance and sing and perform. You'd be totally welcome if you're good at dancing!

gypsyjean June 27 2010, 22:53:55 UTC

I'd love to! It sounds like fun.

dontrainonmy June 28 2010, 02:43:01 UTC

Great! What's your name? Mine's Rachel.

Simply beautiful. Where did you learn to sing so well?

And I must say, you are masterful with words, too.

Re: [audio] dontrainonmy June 27 2010, 21:03:59 UTC

My two gay dads got me lessons when I was young, and I've stuck with it all my life.

That's very nice of you to say.

[audio] allsotedious June 27 2010, 21:59:02 UTC

[A long, awkward silence follows. Not that Gil has anything against gays, you see, he is more shocked that Rachel talks so openly about it. He is quite intrigued by the idea, though.]

Oh, you are... quite welcome. And forgive me for gaping--

[He doesn't seem to realise that Rachel cannot see him.]

-- but I have never heard of someone having two fathers.

[audio] dontrainonmy June 28 2010, 02:43:58 UTC

Well I guess it's still weird in a lot of places, but don't worry, I'm kind of used to that reaction. They love me just as much as a traditional family would, and I love them.

exploring_game June 27 2010, 21:39:13 UTC

Can you really teach me to sing just like you?

dontrainonmy June 28 2010, 02:44:36 UTC

I've taught other people to sing before.

exploring_game June 28 2010, 03:14:56 UTC

That sound be great! I'll join your club!

dontrainonmy June 28 2010, 19:39:45 UTC

Wonderful! I'll be sure to let you know when we meet.
