Note Fourty-Three

[einspruch]

[Klavier looks rather pleased with himself, as he brings in a grocery bag. Unfortunately he had to steal all of it, but...]

Oh Fraulein Detective~

[He holds a small package behind his back.]

[sciencetodo]

[Suspicious look.]

And what is it, Mr. Gavin?

[einspruch]

[Grins.]

[Present > Karintou]

I thought you might like these.

[sciencetodo]

[What is this? This is a look of shock and amazement.]

How on earth did you find these! [Reaches out to grab almost totally focused on the bag. Ohh how she missed you bb ♥.

Then a falter.

Have an accusing glare Mr. Gavin.]

...What do you want for them.

[einspruch]

I went through a few specialty shops and...

[Laughs, and puts it in her hand.]

I can't be nice?

[sciencetodo]

[It seems automatic now doesn't it? Opens bag. MUNCH. MUNCH. MUNCH. Oh Mr. Gavin what have you done? She has projectiles now.]

Well, scientifically speaking [MUNCH] you being nice must mean you want something. [MUNCH]

And normally you'd never go out of your way to buy these for me.

[einspruch]

[He's missed it, believe it or not.]

Oh fine. One thing from you.

[Devilish grin.]

One song.

[sciencetodo]

[Missed this annoying crunching sound? Really? Still munching away. She stops, snackoo-like food hanging from her mouth as she frowns some. A loud crunch she bites it in half and pulls the other part away]

Song, Mr. Gavin? How did I know this was going to lead back to music?

[einspruch]

Because it always comes back to music, my dear Fraulein.

[sciencetodo]

You know if you spent this much time on your work instead of that silly guitar I am sure you'd be ten times more prepared then you usually are.

[Sighs. MUNCH.] All right, what new song have you got for me today?

[einspruch]

[Laughs again.]

Oh, nein, it's not me who's going to be singing.

[sciencetodo]

[drops beloved snackoo]

You have got to be kidding me.

[einspruch]

You never let me get near you when you were singing. Just one song.

It can be "Row Row Row Your Boat" for all I care.

[sciencetodo]

Mr. Gavin you can't be serious about this. [gives him a slightly annoying look.]

... [another sigh] Fine. One song. But only one.

[einspruch]

Good. You can pick.

[Folds his arms and tries to look expectant, but just ends up grinning wider.]

[sciencetodo]

...Right.

[She takes a deep breath, thinking about the song.]

All right.

[Crosses her arms, then rests them at her side after setting her snackoo's down. With that she starts singing Recessional by Vienna Teng]

...Who are you, taking coffee no sugar?
Who are you, echoing street signs?
Who are you, the stranger in the shell of a lover,
Dark curtains drawn by the passage of time?
Oh, words like rain, how sweet the sound.

Well anyway, she says, I'll see you around.

[einspruch]

[When the song ends, he claps.]

You have a wonderful voice. I'd tour with you, if we could get out of here. ... And if I still had a band.

You should sing more often, Fraulein.
