[So. They don't have prom in Japan. Rin doesn't care. This is clearly a popularity contest, and she is on it like Sonic. After all, it's the first opportunity she's gotten in a while to see where she stands in terms of favor with the public. What if she's become more popular than Miku? She can't let this chance for votes slide by. Everything about

[when she's done muttering to herself she'll get a short round of applause. kinda strange sounding but hey, good singing is good singing]

Are you to be the entertainment at that dance the children are going on about?

1/2

[doublerinbow]

[she snaps out of her pensive state at the applause, quickly bowing to show her gratitude.]

[doublerinbow]

[coming out of the bow though, her surprise has faded into a smile]

Yes, I am. ♪ I'll be performing live for part of the dance, and Quinn-sensei will DJ the rest of it.

[and maybe some other people too. But she has no idea who else will show up.]

[decadenzas]

[looks a little confused by the term DJ, he is so out of touch with pop culture.... but he seems pretty appreciative of the fact that they'll have some decent live music, at least.]

I'm surprised, I didn't think anyone organising this rubbish would have the good sense to hire a decent live performer.

[doublerinbow]

Well, thank you! Actually, that was my idea too. ♪

[at least, he had only been talking about his DJing before volunteering, so she will certainly take credit for the idea]

But, it's only natural, right? Live music is just easier to dance to, somehow~ ♪

[that and she wants to show off. Miku already got the spotlight at Quinn's last party.]

[decadenzas]

It is. I don't understand the appeal of canned music. [he doesn't understand the appeal of anything going into the dance at all, but psh, details.

also, ambling over to the nearest bench to have a seat. he hasn't run into too many people with vocal talent here.] Would you sing another for me?

1/2

[doublerinbow]

Of course! ♪ Let's see...

[she takes a moment to select a song, but it really just looks like she's thinking. She thinks maybe she'll sing without her background music on, so she wants one with a nice melody.]

All right, I'll sing "Skeleton Life."

ugh this time I messed up the link >:(

[doublerinbow]

[So, she starts it up. After a brief pause (where the trumpets would have been), she sings Skeleton Life, standing in front of the bench where Charles is sitting.]

Ah hah hah hah hah
♪ ♫ ♪
In this floating blue world
Gazing at the bridge with silver boxes going back and forth
Sun rising up, frightening and happy
But I'm getting a little bit sleepy

The sticky sole of my foot is numb
Before I couldn't feel anything
Once again...

Teach me how to ride the wave
The dog paddle is the best that I can do
Teach me, how to breathe
The snorkel that you handed over gently

Fading away dream, morning from the west
Into the upside-down sky full of stars
Sun sets, fast and quiet
Emptiness and tranquility starts

Today as well, hitting the only back of one day
There is no meaning in languid tempo
But still...

Teach me, how to fly in the sky
I can only step back and crouch down
Teach me, how to flap my wings
I will try to spread both hands

[he silently listens with a critical ear. his enjoyment of music is great but because of that he can be a liiittle bit picky sometimes, and he certainly isn't afraid to share his opinions.

her voice is a little strange and hard to get used to but the notes are hit beautifully and he doesn't have much to say against the tune either, so she gets another polite round of applause from him when she's finished.]

That was well done. What of opera, do you sing that?

I couldn't find any decent Rin opera on Youtube... I know it exists somewhere but bluh linking Nico

[doublerinbow]

Well... Not usually, but the songs in "Story of Evil" were made into a stage musical. Does that count? ♪

;u; haha no probs, i've heard some of her better opera vids before!

[decadenzas]

Stage musicals can be just as enjoyable, so I suppose it does. I've not heard of that one, though.

oh well in that case I can still have her sing him some without a link? :D

[doublerinbow]

Ah, it's a good one! It's a story of the Princess Rillianne D'Autriche, a 14 year old tyrant that lived a life of extreme wealth, and after the queen died, she exploited her subjects through taxes and executed all of those that opposed her. Eventually her deeds cause a war.... ♪

if you want!

[decadenzas]

[nods along the entire time she's talking, actually looking interested! he's a sucker for those kinds of storylines.]

It sounds interesting enough. A shame proper entertainment like that can't be found here.

I'll do it if the conversation steers back that way then

[doublerinbow]

Mmn. ♪ Unfortunately, I only sing a couple of the songs in the series. It wouldn't be complete without my twin brother and the rest of my family.

[decadenzas]

Ah, do you perform it together, then? [not exactly a strange concept, though he's certainly more used to the audition system.]

What other musicals or plays have you performed in?

[doublerinbow]

Yes, we do. ♪ Not just musicals, though, we usually do concerts of our more popular songs from the internet.

Well, there was another musical based off of "KOKORO" after the "Story of Evil" one. ♪ It's about a lonely scientist who tries to create a robot with a heart, and what becomes of that robot.
