[Day 234] Enchanting Concert Mingle
[Video]

Um... hello!

[Dressed in a elegant black dress and gloves, Yuuki appears on screen, smiling sheepishly. She's at the beach, which is, of course, a little brighter than she likes. But the location aside, she's situated beneath a tree at the moment, and would look comfortable... if she weren't, obviously, a little nervous. She clears her throat, and bows after a moment.]

Ahem-- today I'm performing on the beach. It's-- well, it's something that I have to do. [A punishment] But I've worked really hard. [And the wardens want it to be public.] So if you don't have anything better to do... you're welcome to come and watch. We'll be starting shortly. Aha-- at the very least there's going to be snacks and food! So even if you don't like the performance, you can remember the delicious foods, right? Mm! Thank you.

[With a bow she expels a breath and cuts the feed.]

[Action + Video]

[There's a shaded mini stage put together over on the beach, with refreshments and snacks around and about. Nothing too large, but cozy and there's plenty of food to go around. Ice cream and popsicles (which you can never go wrong with) in addition to more savory snacks, such as takoyaki among other things. It's bigger than the girl at the center of attention would like. But she's going to see this through, even if the person who had originally helped train her rigorously to perform the songs isn't here any more.

On stage, she's wearing the pretty black number that Hikaru has carefully picked out for her. And despite her nerves from before, she's composed now. Training in how to handle herself in front of an audience (granted one at a ball) has proven to help when it comes to dealing with a large amount of people publicly. So, as she introduces herself once more, and her eyes swim about the beach to find Zero, and the rest of her roommates, she manages a smile.]


Mm... I've worked really hard on the songs for today! I wrote them together with Sheryl-san... so even though she's not here any more, I hope that I can convey them the way she would have liked. So for those of you who decided to come and listen... thank you!

[Taking position on stage, she waits for the sound of the music to begin, before her voice rings out. Filling the air and network, emotions wrap and coil around every lyric as she hopes for and wills the audience to become absorbed in the music and the listen to her.]

Castle of Sand

Gentle drifting white clouds
Float silent across the sky above me
But the me who's merely made of ashes
Motionlessly watches as they vanish into night

Can you see?
Gathering stars, into my arms
I build up a fragile castle of sand
And utter a tiny pray for all the ones I love
But, lying in wait,
a silent wave, flows and floods out everything
Sweeping away the castle of sand I built

A world of Darkness
A world of Silence

Though my prayer seems impossible
Like a tiny light, battered by the harshest of storms
Nevertheless I'll continue to keep it lit
Even though I stumble and fall
O'er and over again
These frozen, ice cold hands
Created that fragile castle of sand...

But, a silent wave, flows and floods out everything

Ah, for you, I'd-
Still Doll
Hi Miss Alice
I wonder what do you see
With your eyes of glass in your dream
Oh, what do you see?
Oh, what do you seek?

And just like before
My heart has been torn apart
And they bleed for you
Try as I might
To heal the wound
All my thoughts
Pierce relentlessly

Hi Miss Alice
I wonder who do you kiss
With your perfect and sweetened red lips
Oh, who do you kiss?
Oh, who do you miss?

Just like before
My tongue that once spoke my heart
Has been laid to rest
Try as I might
To sing the songs that I love
They cannot be heard

Still you do not answer



[OOC: Come and get your emotions played with... accidentally of course! Information can be found here. Characters can get their emotions played with or become enchanted, and vampires can get affected with the... side affects. It's all optional of course! In addition to the songs above Yuuki will sing Celmisia (Lyrics), and Heroine Syndrome (Lyrics) People are free to post as Before, During, or After the performance.]

[Rebekah came for the performance. She likes Yuuki well enough and hope springs eternal that someday she will find modern music that doesn't make her want to tear her ears off.

This...was still not exactly her style but better than some things she's heard, at least. She's trying to withhold judgement.

The sadness of the music hits her first but after...there's another feeling arising, one she hasn't quite put together with the music yet. But considering how heightened vampires of her world are when it comes with their hormones to begin with...

Approach at your own risk.

[He's keeping a close eye on both the performer and the crowd, especially the vampires since he expected something like this to possibly happen. Making his way toward Rebekah, he stops next to her and lifts his hand with an offering.]

Popsicle?

[The cherry red treat is still in the wrapper as he holds it out to her.]

I couldn't track down any earplugs or I would have brought a bunch of those too.

[She blinks at Zero's words, raising a slight brow. She remembers when she's talked to him before, all the questions, how he clearly seemed to know what she was. She takes the popsicle anyways.]

Why would you bring earplugs to a concert?

[His eyes find his constant companion and lock on her for a moment before turning back to Rebekah.]

Because I'm normally not there for the music. Today is a little different. But still--there's a vampire at the microphone. You never know what will happen.

I never realized that was a combination to be worried about. [She mused, a little curious to what exactly he meant about that.]

[After teaching Sam's vampire class the other day, Zero has somewhat opened up a little more about his world so he has no issues discussing it.]

I'm sure it's not the same in every world. Where I come from, some of the more popular music stars are vampires with the special ability to charm by their voice. Usually that's their only 'skill' and they can't control it completely in song.

They've been known to entice riots without intending to since it affects the crowd. Including other vampires.

..That would explain some things. [Like some of the strange feelings she had felt while listening to the performance.]

It's interesting how different the same species can be depending on what world they come from.

It's part of the reason I'm here. I've had to supervise these sort of things at home.

[He just gives a nod of agreement.] Dead. Alive. Different powers. Different weaknesses. Keeps everyone on thier toes.

To make sure problems didn't occur? [Among other things.]

Keeps things from getting totally mundane, at least.

[ Something about blondes or maybe he's just sensing that they're experiencing a similar thing, the very thing that is currently making the demon restlessly scratch at the insides of his chest. He slides up to her, cigarette precariously bobbing in the corner of his mouth as he digs for a lighter. ]

Quite the turn-out.

[She tilts her head at the voice, nodding in agreement.]

Seems people were in the mood for a good show tonight.

You've noticed it too? The weird effect her music seems to have.

Yeah. That's not just a good bass-line. [ Seeing as there isn't one. ]

Magic?

It's not the first time I've seen one. [In the 1920s she had frequently visited a bar ran by a witch who sang there.]

Yeah? Care to share?

A bar I used to frequent in Chicago was run by a witch who also performed there most nights.
