[The concert is due to take place on the first day of the festival, the better to show their appreciation and their respect for the honor of Bil's arrival. Also to let the students run around free from responsibilities to him for the rest of the festivities. Giles is prepared to admit that they've earned it. After a shaky start to the week, everyone really came together. He's tentatively confident about the performance later this afternoon.

All throughout the morning and into the afternoon, Giles can be found hovering around the staging area, taking tally after tally of instruments and fumbling with the electrical equipment.

No, seriously, someone help him with the sound equipment. And bring him something to eat. Because he will forget.

The area is open to students, parents, and...villagers in general who aren't too clumsy around the sensitive equipment. Giles will be less willing to turn a blind eye the closer showtime draws near, however. When an hour remains, he'll mostly be running around scooping up any stragglers.]

Uncle!

[Here comes Luke with some food for his frazzled uncle; a hot dog and a cookie, if he finds those to be of interest. He holds them out to him as he surveys the stage - oh, that's where he'll be sitting, huh... Jeez, it's nerve-wracking to think about.]

How's everything looking?

[You are a lifesaver, kiddo.

Giles takes the food without really looking at it - sets the hot dog down on an amplifier for later and bites into the cookie.]

Fine. Yes. Good. Great.

...except that the fourth amplifier is m-making sounds I d-don't think it should be making.

Huh... What kind of sounds?

[Luke kneels down by it and frowns at it. He's not really skilled in electronics; Asch is the one who can fix things like that. Luke usually just smacks it until it works.]

[Giles flips the switch on the amplifier. A high pitched static hum begins...off, but nothing that noticeable yet.]

[Luke winces a little from that pitch and - for some reason, he even unconsciously reaches up to hold his head. Why... Why did that noise seem so familiar? It's not like it's particularly awful...]

It... doesn't sound too bad to me.

Wait for it.

[Because the buzz is starting to increase still further in pitch, slowly but definitely.]

[O-Ow, ow, okay, he's hearing it - and feeling it, too, especially since he's kneeling stupidly close to the amplifier. Luke leans away and waves his free hand at Giles.]

All right, all right, you can turn it off now!

[Giles will obligingly and quickly flip the amplifier off.]

You see my concerns.

[Luke is quiet for a moment as he rubs his head. What was that...? But he doesn't ponder on it for too long. Maybe he's just sensitive to high frequencies like that. He straightens up to talk to his uncle easier.]

Yeah, definitely... So how're you gonna fix it?

Re: 22nd - CONCERT AREA consultmybooks April 22 2011, 02:56:12 UTC
I've been asking myself that question for the last half hour.

And I have absolutely no idea. [He takes another irritable, anxious bite out of the cookie.]

I'm sure you'll think of something... You're pretty smart with stuff like this.

[He pauses, glancing at the hot dog. C'mon, the cookie can't be the only thing you're going to eat.]

Maybe you could ask Asch to help. I don't think he's coming to the festival, but maybe he could do just this one thing.

[...Paprika has seriously never shared any stories of his technical ineptitude with you, Luke? Wow, she must respect him more than he thought.]

Asch. Yes. Maybe.

[And Giles always turns to sweets first in a crisis.] Do you have any idea at all where he is?

[At that question, Luke's eyes go unfocused for a moment as he focuses on the connection he and Asch share. Where are you... Ah, there he is, under a tree by the festival. Luke blinks, then holds up a hand to Giles.]

Yeah, I know. One sec, I'll go find him.

[And he runs off to go to his brother!]

[His brother is, in fact, reading a book under aforementioned tree, a little napkin of a couple snacks and fruit from the festival vendors. He's pretty focused on his book, so he doesn't notice his twin looking for him.]

22nd - CONCERT AREA cakeblocked April 23 2011, 01:54:42 UTC
[You and that book, Asch. How long is it, anyway? Asch might not feel him coming, but maybe he'll notice once he hears those footsteps coming towards him.]

Asch!
