Poly crosspost -> Post #52, video/action

[blackshadow]

[ action ]
[ Tyr's wandering around the square now and taking advantage of the lack of curses to look at the different stores. It's more or less just a leisurely walk, though. Eventually, he stops around building ten and posts to the network. ]

[ video ]
It was like this before a while ago, wasn't it? More than a week without any curses. [ He doesn't sound all that certain about it. ] It makes me wonder if the deities are saving their energy for something big to happen later...

...If they are, then I... [ He starts, but then thinks better of it. ] Nevermind.

[ And he turns the device off. ]


[ ooc: Livejournal post! Responding on either site is okay.

Please don't friend this journal. I might use a different one if Poly stays journal-based! ]

I don't know what any of them are. [ Which he thinks she should have been able to guess by now. ] It wouldn't hurt to try a little bit of everything, though. Neither of us have anywhere else to go...

[ ooc: Going to bed now! Good night~♥ ]

♥!

[negativegate]

[Right--and she finds it hard to be interested in the names themselves, so it's not surprising that Tyr isn't, either.] Yeah, you're right...Let's give a few different ones a try.

[ooc: Okay! I'll be going soon, too. Sleep well~♥]

♥!

[blackshadow]

[ He nods. ] We can just pick a few random ones and get an idea of what these sections mean... These sections aren't going to just start making more sense.

[ ooc: I hope you slept well! :3 ]

♥!

[negativegate]

The names sure don't mean anything to me. [So she reaches out and picks something up from the "rock" and "metal" sections.]

[ooc: Thanks! And I hope your classes started out all right!]

♥!

[blackshadow]

"Rock", "metal", "pop"... The only ones that give an idea of what they are are "classical" and "country". [ Clearly "country" is for national music! ]

[ ooc: My class actually starts at 4pm today! Since my 8am was cancelled because it's a lab... ]

♥!

[negativegate]

And even "country" doesn't really tell us anything if you don't know about the music in the country it came from. [Seriously, all these labels are just silly! Rita thinks they should make more sense.]

[ooc: Oooh, at least you had some more free time, then. |D Good luck with classes soon!]

♥!

[blackshadow]

[ Tyr mumbles in agreement. ] You're right... And with the way time is here, it could be different anyway...

[ ooc: Yeah :3 I could have stayed home longer-! XD; ]

♥!

[negativegate]

[Next she picks up something from a "rap" section with a sigh.] Well, just grab anything to try it out, I guess. I'm good with these for now.

[ooc: A little bit more-!]

♥!

[blackshadow]

[ And Tyr grabs something blindly from "house". Sounds like it'd be relaxing. ]

Me too... We should have a good collection.

[ ooc: yeah! ;_; also dinner! ]

♥!

[negativegate]

[Maybe that'll be his lazy music...Rita figures they at least have enough to try out for now.]

Wanna go back over to the player?

[ooc: ;3; And okay, enjoy!]

♥!

[blackshadow]

[ One thing found! He nods. ] I don't want to just waste money buying them randomly...

[ ooc: Thanks! :3 I might not be around the rest of the night, either; we're watching a movie together. ]

♥!

[negativegate]

[Rita agrees with him as they start to head over, too.] Or else you could end up with something totally weird.

[ooc: Ooh, okay! Have fun! :3]

♥!

[blackshadow]

Or really bad... [ He puts the headphones over her head when they get over to the stand. ]

[ ooc: Thanks! We did. ♥ ]

♥!

[negativegate]

Or even both. [She places in a disc at random--"pop"--and then listens...

It starts out all right enough; there's a catchy beat like the last one, more of that synthesizer, and--then the actual singing starts, and Rita's expression is probably ridiculous as she listens to the high-pitched cutesy lyrics that seem to be all about feelings.]

[ooc: Aww, good! ♥]

♥!

[blackshadow]

Probably...

[ He watches curious, but soon enough, his face matches hers. What is she thinking about?! And it was the music she liked, too. ] ...Like it?

[ ooc: Yeah~! :3 ]

♥!

[negativegate]

...Hang on... [She...isn't even sure right now. Gonna skip this song and try a different one--oh, that's better. A more normal pitch, and...well, lots of feelings in the lyrics again, but that could be normal.] It's not horrible, but...

[Oh, here. She puts the headphones over Tyr's head now.]

[♥]

♥!

[blackshadow]

[ He holds them over his ears to listen.

It sounds sort of like what they listened to before, he thinks. He's not totally sure about the lyrics, but... He offers her a little smile. ] It's not bad.

[ /cling ]

♥!

[negativegate]

It's better than the first song, anyway. [But she has to admit that she agrees--it's not bad, and it might even be catchy.] You wanna try a different one?

[♥♥]

♥!

[blackshadow]

You made the first song seemed pretty bad... [ Still, he's not sure... He keeps holding the headphones. ] Do you think this song is good enough to buy the entire disc for?

[ ♥♥♥ ]

♥!

[negativegate]

Only if the rest of it's any good. Listen to the first one- [She reaches over and hits the back button so he can hear it too!]

[All the ♥♥♥~!]

♥!

[blackshadow]

[ He doesn't respond to that - just thinking they can't listen to every song on every disc - and just waits for the song to start. Immediately, it doesn't really sound bad. ] It's not that different from the first...

[ What's wrong with a girl singing about her sappy feelings in a high-pitched voice... ]

[ Yeah!! \o/ ]

♥!

[negativegate]

I thought it was... [She just sorta blankfaces at him. It was weird to her! (Maybe because she wasn't sure what to expect from "pop".)]

[/o/!!]

♥!

[blackshadow]

[ Tyr thinks she's being weird herself. ] What about it? [ It's not exactly Tyr's tastes in music, especially since it's not totally danceable, but he doesn't hate it.

He just switches it off and takes off the headphones anyway. ]

[ \o\~ ]

♥!

[negativegate]

It just...was! [Huff huff. But rather than argue about it, she puts that disc back in the case.] It's up to you if you want to keep it. Let's try something else now.

[♥~!!]

♥!

[blackshadow]

If you don't like it, we won't get it. I don't like it that much... [ She's being totally weird!! But they should drop it... ] Just put in another disc.

[ ♥!! ]
