Game 036 [Action/Voice] - Once More With Feeling

[ If you happen to be celebrating the new year with some coffee or pastries or... whatever else Hanekoma feeds people at Kat's Kradle, then you might hear the sound of someone tuning a violin coming from the second story.

It starts off quite out of tune, but within a minute or two, it sounds fine. Then, Joshua starts up a piece of music: fast-paced, somewhat frantic, somewhat chaotic, without chorus or verse, but it has an overall feel to it of life, of progress, of change.

Or maybe you just missed the whole performance.

Either way, a little later, the following goes out over the journal. ]

Why do you want to go home? [ And then, after a short pause, ]

Why do you want to stay?

[Just like the few times they've talked in the past over the journals, it's one of those questions. She must not mind it much, though. Considering she still answers.]

Home? There's something I [need, it's on the tip of her tongue but something in her stomach twists and is that really the truth?] ...want.

[ Well, these are the types of questions he asks. ]

Is it something that can't come here?

[Even if the fake Zenon was brought here, no. The rules of this world would make him useless.

She laughs.]

Even if it could it'd be no help to me, not here.

What do you want it for?

[Celebrating with coffee and pastries sounds good right about now. Which is why one Neku Sakuraba is wandering into the cafe. And it's probably somewhere in the middle of Joshua's little performance there.

As soon as Neku walks in he pauses once he catches the sound. So... it was a violin after all? Huh.]

[ Joshua plays on, pausing for only a moment before continuing again.

After a couple seconds, a rather frazzled kitten skitters down the stairs and immediately jumps up onto one of the couches, claws digging into the fabric, staring at the stairs. ]

[...well that was interesting. Jeeze, Joshua, what are you doing to the poor kitten. Neku would go and try to pet Java to calm her down or something, but those claws make him think twice.

Instead he just gives her a glance then starts heading up the stairs.]

[ What? He gave her a gentle disciplining when she tried to attack and make a chew toy out of the end of his bow. But for now, he's playing uninterrupted. ]

I want to make sure everyone at home is okay.

What about you?

Would it be acceptable if they all came here, then?

No! Then they'd get experimented on.

Does this mean you yourself aren't "okay"?

[Man this guy pisses her off. She's not really sure if it's the questions - though she doesn't have an association for them, this sort of leading ridiculousness bugs the shit out of her - or the hair. It's probably at least in part the hair.

...She growls a little to herself, but then resolves to learn what she can]

There's nothing I need in this dump.

And there's something you need back home?

There just might be. What about you?

Otherwise, it wouldn't be what you'd complain about. I'd just like to go home.

Well, I'd like to go home because I have a lot of things going on that I need to finish.

I'd like to stay because of the relationships I've forged here.

If you could choose to go home, would you?

Hmmm...would it be for absolute certain that if I didn't take it I'd never be able to go home again?

[ Sanae's just down the hall when Josh begins to play, and he doesn't seem to realize what he's hearing at first. The tune is familiar, too much so to register sharply enough to grab his attention -- the guy is thoroughly locked into artist mode, concept sketches sprawled out around him on the bed and a sketchbook propped up on one raised knee.

When he recognizes what he's hearing, he nearly drops the pencil, startled and excited in equal parts. A moment later, there are footsteps down the hall and the presence of an Angel outside Joshua's bedroom door; Josh has an audience. ]

[ Joshua plays on, too engrossed in hearing the sounds of his city in his ears, feeling the vibration the music through the instrument. This is his birthday present to himself. Shibuya, pale imitation though it was. Just hearing it resonate through the building and around the room and back to himself was almost, almost like he was hearing it from the outside. He hadn't meant for Sanae to hear, but it doesn't register as something unwanted. ]

[ Sanae's silent for a bit, just listening, before he begins to join in. A high being's vibe and code are flexible, and he's something powerful enough to warp his own Music, put emphasis on a certain strain or undertone. He brings Shibuya's Music to the surface, replicates her sound as best he can. It joins with the music Joshua creates and makes the city's Soul that much stronger, more tangible.

He leans against the hallway wall beside the man's door, uncertain as to the effect this'll have on Josh -- he's yet to explore the issues of proximity and intensity -- but too caught by the bittersweet sound to worry over it. ]

Oh, there's always a reason. Even if it's only longing for the familiar.

Lots of people prob'ly have stuff to do back home. Ain't like we got prior notice that we were gonna be dragged here.
