16th Case - [Action]/[Written] - Forward-dated to the afternoon of the 7th

[As the normal day presses on at school, Naoto takes her usual elaborate notes on the lessons in her classes, but what continues to go through her head isn't what's going on in class, it's what she plans to do after school ends for the day.  The moment her class lets out, she makes her way down to the empty music room but as she opens the door to

[Roxas was just fixing to leave school too, having stayed after to finish up on some things. However before he can make his way out the main doors he hears that string of music. Following the sound back to the music room, he pushes the door open just as the girl ends her playing.]

More things you haven't told me about yourself. I see how it is.

[arhgiua Roxas don't do that! You almost made her press all the wrong keys really loudly. Here she thought she was all alone... at least that's what she hoped since no one here has heard her play before. It's kinda embarrassing actually, but not enough to make her blush too much.

But she chuckles softly and turns around on the bench a little to look at him with a wry smile] I apologize. I haven't really told anyone about this before, not even Senpai.

[perplex_me]

[He'll just go ahead and enter the room further, just looking around.] Why not? Just never got around to it?

[action]

[fortune_prince]

[She shakes her head] Not exactly. It isn't exactly something I usually did outside of the Shirogane estate so I suppose I felt no need to inform people of it.

[Resting the palms of her hands on her knees, she faces forward again, looking at the music]

[action]

[perplex_me]

Well...I think it's pretty cool. I met another lady here that knows how to play, too. But your style's different.

[action]

[fortune_prince]

Thank you. [Looking back] Who was this woman?

[action]

[perplex_me]

Her name's Ginia. She works at that club, Cloud 9? She's also the lady in charge of the calendar at the Welcome Center. She's pretty cool.

[fortune_prince]

I don't believe I've ever met her before. Do you remember what type of music she plays? [If it's anything like what she plays she can ask her for help :|a]

[action]

[perplex_me]

She was playing a bunch of different stuff. She said they were all variations of rock music though.

[action]

[fortune_prince]

I see. I may ask her a few questions later then.

[Just going to think this over for a moment longer before giving Roxas a smile] Do you know how to play?

[action]

[perplex_me]

Are you kidding? [He laughs a little.] Sora's not exactly musically inclined, and we never had time to learn anything like that in the Organization. Why?

[action]

[fortune_prince]

[She chuckles and scoots over a little, gesturing to the space on the bench beside her] Would you like me to teach you?

[action]

[perplex_me]

[He'll just go ahead and plop right down.] Depends. How hard is it?

[action]

[fortune_prince]

It isn't that difficult really, I'm sure you'll learn quickly.

[ ...But it's still probably better to start out with a basic song.] Watch me and do as I do. [Placing her right hand on the proper keys, she starts to press each note to play 'Mary had a little lamb'.]

[action]

[perplex_me]

[He's just going to watch for a moment, moving his hands down on some of the further keys to mimic her movements. He's hitting a few wrong keys as his fingers slip, but he seems to understand well enough.] It sounds...weird.

[action]

[fortune_prince]

[She watches him copy her, smiling a little when he messes up.] Try it again, but go a little slower and focus on which keys to press. [Look, she'll even play the song again]
