*Tere appears on the piano, dressed rather more formally than she usually is*

Sooner or later you're gonna be mine

Evening.

[musical_muse]

Hello, handsome. Have a seat.
*She gestures and a chair that strongly resembles a harp appears*

What can I sing for you?

[x_van_helsing_x]

*eyes the chair warily; but realizes it actually *is* a chair and takes a seat*

Sing? Anything you'd like. Much of what I've heard tonight is new to me, but do continue. It's lovely.

[musical_muse]

If music is no longer lovely,
If laughter is no longer lilting,
If lovers are no longer loving,
Then I don't want to know.

If summer is no longer carefree,
If children are no longer singing,
If people are no longer happy,
Then I don't want to know.

Let me hide ev'ry truth from my eyes with the back of my hand,
Let me live in a world full of lies with my head in the sand.
For my memories all are exciting.
My memories all are enchanted,
My memories burn in my mead with a steady glow;
So if, my friends, if love is dead,
I don't want to know.

*finishes his drink*

Very nice. *wrinkles brow* Do you know anything a bit less modern?

[musical_muse]

Will this do?
Alas, my love, you do me wrong

[x_van_helsing_x]

*laughs*

That does qualify as 'less' modern.

*frowns*

Would you believe me if I told you that I might actually pre-date that tune?

[musical_muse]

I know I certainly do, so it wouldn't surprise me at all.

Do you...have a first name, Mr. Van Helsing? I feel so formal.

[x_van_helsing_x]

I do. It's Gabriel, but I generally don't use it. But you can address me simply as Van Helsing if the formality is a bother.

[ooc: player off to bed -- Tere can sit and sing to Van Helsing all night if she'd like... ;)]
