How utterly wonderful

[hamelinofosaka]

I was perusing the bookstore today when a magazine caught my eye. It is a poerty magazine. Oft times, I will submit work to them, under my pen name of course. And it seems that I am the featured poet for the magazine this month. I am beside myself with joy.

I am somehow not surprised, congratulations.

[hamelinofosaka]

Thank you, Ootori. Perhaps I can invite you to a reading? Or better yet... Do you still have your violin? It seems the room next to me isn't too happy with my choice of practice hours. Perhaps I could practice with you.

[musical_promise]

Of course I still have my violin. I am a music major.

Yes, I sort of heard from Kaidoh-kun in passing you were playing late. My room is a bit more suiting and Koharu doesn't mind my playing. Plus there is a music room with a piano that is usually pretty open for playing in.

[hamelinofosaka]

Oh. Lovely. I would love to play a few pieces with you. But I will also take the piano room into consideration.

[musical_promise]

I would adore the chance to play along side you, senpai.

[hamelinofosaka]

When will you have time? I have all the time in the world so I can whenever you are ready.

[musical_promise]

Any time after classes is usually pretty open so long as I have my phone and Atobe-senpai's planner along. ^_^

[hamelinofosaka]

Keigo is working you too hard?

[musical_promise]

Oh no, his father is just a very difficult man and has taken to attempting to contact me.

[hamelinofosaka]

His father? That Jackass? You have to deal with him? My condolences. Why would he ever subject you to that?

[musical_promise]

I am his assistant. It is expected to a certain point that I will have to deal with some unpleasantries. Every once in a while he likes to email me or call my cellular and make sure I am doing everything by the books. I think he is spying on Atobe-senpai when he does that. It's a little unsettling.

[hamelinofosaka]

When it comes to his father, some unpleasentries is an understatement, don't you think? And you think right. Then again, as you have seen, I have my own very strong opinions about that man. Then again, I never did ingraciate myself to him. I'm one of those lazy good for nothings that Keigo shouldn't accociate himself with.

[musical_promise]

I have found it easiest to deal with him like I do with my own father. Quiet resignation, and then doing the right thing when they quit watching anyway.

[hamelinofosaka]

And I've found it better to just live up to his expectations. We are all thorns in his side when it comes to his son. I intend to remain as such.

[musical_promise]

As near as I can tell, he doesn't mind me so long as I continue to do what I am told.
