Town Streets

Riuke Shihiro

“My parents just don’t understand that I want to play music, not go into business.
However, I couldn’t bring myself to tell them.”

At first, Riuke was embarrassed to hear Claude give him such compliments. No one ever really complimented his music, least of all his parents, so hearing what Claude was saying seemed a little unbelievable to him. He never thought of himself as a particularly good musician, he just liked to play regardless of how bad it was. Hearing these compliments was really giving him some confidence in his music, and it made him feel better about himself. He felt so good that he couldn't help smiling a bit, while blushing slightly in embarrassment of the compliments. Then, he heard Claude ask if they could do a duet, and he became a little nervous. "A-A duet? B-but I only brought my one guitar with me, how would you be able to play?" he asked in slight astonishment about the whole thing. He didn't see any instrument on Claude's person, and Claude had also asked to use his guitar, so it truly seemed like Claude had no way of making music at this current moment. Because of this, Riuke had no idea how they could do a duet with only one instrument.

Fortunately, Claude was prepared for Riuke’s question, “It’s simple. I can just run back to my place and get my guitar. It’s not far from here so just hang tight!” he said as he started running back towards his apartment. “I’ll be back in a flash,” he yells.

...

In no time, Claude returned with his guitar on his back. “See? No problem,” he said as he quickly slung the guitar case up over his shoulder and started to take it out. Despite the fact that he just ran from the middle of town, to his apartment, and back again; Claude wasn’t tired at all. He never had any problems with sports. It’s probably just a guy thing. Soon, he sat beside Riuke with his own guitar in his arms. “So, what do you want to play?” he asked eagerly.

“My parents just don’t understand that I want to play music, not go into business.
However, I couldn’t bring myself to tell them.”

"O-okay," Riuke responded when Claude began to run off to get his guitar. It was all he could say anyways, Claude was already gone before anything else could be said. While he waited, he went back to playing his guitar for all to hear, closing his eyes and spacing out. In hardly any time at all Riuke heard the voice of Claude say "See? No problem," and Riuke stopped playing and opened his eyes again, looking at Claude.

"H-huh?" he stuttered when Claude asked him what he wanted to play, "W-well, I don't know many songs so. . . Maybe you should choose" he finished, looking down with a sort of sad look on his face. "Of course I can play along to any tune you give me! I just need to hear a little bit of it first. . ." He said, his voice sounding more excited at the first sentence, then calm and slightly sad sounding again as he finished.

“Of course I can play along to any tune you give me! I just need to hear a little bit of it first. . ." replies Riuke. Claude just looked at him as if he couldn’t believe what he was hearing. “What was with that tone? It doesn’t sound like you’re too confident. Believe me Riuke, you have talent. Here, let’s put it to the test,” said Claude as he looked around the area. Though it may not look like it, there were many people out today. He looks at Riuke, “As you may well know Riuke, being a musician means being creative. Let’s see if we can put a smile on these people’s faces,” he says. Briefly but quickly, Claude checks the sound of his guitar. And just as suspected, it was tuned perfectly. “You ready? Let’s see how creative you can be?” he says.

Claude starts off and allows Riuke have a turn. Liking what he hears, he plays again and let’s Riuke play. So on and so on, they play against each other until they started playing together. Little by little, the crowd started to build up. Claude can see that Riuke was having fun, and so was he. Soon, their song ended. And they could hear a roar of clapping, cheering and whistling. Smirking, Claude looks over at Riuke, “So? What do you think?”

(OOC: Here's the song that they were playing. Enjoy! X)

"Um..according to this chart, we need to order a few more books...I guess those books are really popular..." A boy that looked to be the age of eighteen with golden color eyes and light greenish hair muttered to himself as he was reading from what appeared to be a notepad. He wasn't too focused on what was in front of him, he was only concerned with what contents the notepad had inside. "I'll mention this at the next meeting but...I doubt that we have enough funds to order those books" He sighed softly before putting the notepad away inside his pocket.

"Heheh, that was. . . fun!" Riuke said with a nervous smile on his face. He had never had so much fun playing his guitar out on the streets, and he never had a crowd this large around him cheering for him. He couldn't help but get a little nervous and blush a little. "W-well? Sh-should we do another one?" he asked Claude, not too positive himself if it were a good idea to keep going.

Ryuki scratched his head, wondering what to do about the meeting and funds. "I guess we could start to sell the older books that are used...I'm sure some people would buy them and we would have enough money to order new books but...if no one buys them then it would have been a complete waste of time...maybe a fund raiser or garage sale?" He muttered to himself, he rubbed his chin in deep thought wondering which option he should choose.

Mayu walks around the street to find a good spot till she sees one, seetin her violin case, takin her violin out, and slowly playing. he start playing a lightly melody that tells a story about a girl and a wolf  

[project z07]

She keep playing telling story as her eys were only looking down, as the breze suddenly blowng. Crowds form to listen the melody as it soflty changed t the melody of the sound of the wave that can actually be heard  

[project z07]

After she finishes, the crowed applaude, drpping coins inmy violin case and they leave. i pick those coins up, as Mayu packs her violin, walking around to see another crowed, she sand with them seein other people like her. She step in, puts the coins infront of them, and step back, fading in the crowd  

[The Anemoi]

Fuyujiri had followed the music. He had heard at least one violin and two guitars. It was beautiful. He moved to the more beautiful sound, the violinist. He watched her play, she was good. He put some spare change he had in his pocket when she was finished. He then followed the only other music in the area, the two guitarist. They were pretty much dueling with guitars. He smiled, they were funny!

“W-well? Sh-should we do another one?” asked Riuke. His question caused Claude to ponder a bit. They played so well together, they should keep it rolling. Clauded wanted Riuke to explore his creative side a bit. And more than anything, he felt like the people that surrounded them should witness it. In no time, Claude came up with a reply, "Sure. And since I chose the song last time, why don’t you choose one for us to play this time? I follow you lead.” He adjusted the guitar in his arms a bit, “So, ready when you are!” she said.

Kisha Blaze

With the knowledge of pain. . .
Kisha Walked down the streets, looking for a place to sit. She loved to sit on the side of the street and play her guitar. She would sometimes sing to her music. She looked up and down the street seeing all the people. She sat down on the sidewalk and started playing a song. One with no lyrics. She enjoyed it.

I can't be close the ones I love and hold dear.

Fuyu heard a song with no lyrics, a song that never had one. He walked away from the two other guitarists. The song seemed to pull him to its source. When he got over to the young woman, he began slightly swaying to the music. He smiled that smile you get when you just feel happy.
