[The comm turns on and she's humming softly to herself, the tune might sound familiar to those from good ol' Earth. She then starts to sing the song. Her tune is a bit off, but she's not terrible... though it's obvious that English isn't her first or best language as she mispronounces things here and there as she goes along. But all in all, anyone ( Read more... )

It's a very nice song... I like it very much.

I'm glad you liked it too. It's been so long since I've sung it... I was worried I'd forget the words.

She's the character who sings the song I sang, she's in the movie The Wizard of Oz. It's an old classic movie from America. I remember watching it when I was little... I always thought she was brave going through a strange world, making friends along the way and trying her best to get home.

... it's kind of like everyone here, if you think about it.

I like hearing people sing. I don't hear it often.

A movie... is that like a story? What's a wizard?

Hm... maybe once things settle down and Discedo is a bit safer... we could do something at the Northern Lights? I mean, people could sing songs they know. It could be really fun!

Mhm! A movie is a story told with moving pictures, sometimes drawn and put together, or sometimes with real pictures of people so it moves. Music and costumes are used to make them more interesting too.

Oh a wizard is um... well they have special powers and can cast spells. Some can do good things, and some are bad? It really depends on what you read or what movie you watch. They're not real where I'm from, just fictional ideas that people use a lot in stories.

[...] It is a rather apt song.

Mm. It really is... even for people who don't know of the movie or have never heard of it, I think they'll get something from it.

It's one of those songs that a lot of people can relate to, no matter where they are from.

I'm just glad I didn't mess up the words when singing! That would have been embarrassing for those who do know it!

I expect so.

It's a nice, hopeful song; I'm sure people will appreciate it, especially at the moment.

You sang it well.

O-Oh, thank you, Naruse-san... I'm really glad you liked it. I remember that you liked this song too...

She likes this song too?

I've heard her sing that 'If I only had a brain,' song before.

Oh goodness. I hope she was doing it to be silly?

Music... box?

Ah? Oh-- Um... Naruse-san got something a long time ago and that song played out of it. He said his mother really liked it. I've never heard of that song... Can you sing it to me again sometime?

be_your_angel June 20 2009, 18:32:10 UTC
Oh... well that makes sense why he'd like it then.

I wouldn't mind singing it for you sometime. It's a very nice song to sing. If you want I could teach you the lyrics and we could sing together sometime?

Shinjiro said you would.

I'm glad you like it... I do too. Actually it seems a lot of people do. It's a nice song.

It is. Really pretty...

Mm... though I think it sounds prettier when someone else sings it. [A soft giggle.]
