thirtieth form; quiet talents reveal themselves (video/action for goldenrod/text)

//video/action

{When the feed clicks on, a few final-sounding notes of piano music rise up into the air, and we have a lovely view of... the carpet?!}

It is a beautiful piano, but...

-You cannot afford it, right?- {Nanao laughs mournfully, and the picture moves from staring at the carpet to one that shows Goldenrod's small but well-stocked music store. The salesman is leaning on a beautiful grand piano, on whose keys Nanao's gloved fingers still rest.}

You have that right. Apart from the price, I'm pretty sure that it would take up most of the space in the room I intend to put it in. {Reverently, she runs her fingers over the top of it, and sighs.} I don't suppose you have an upright, do you?

-You're in luck. We've just received one from Kanto, actually. Would you like to try it out?- {She nods, and he gestures over, the camera following the movement to reveal... a humble-looking polished wood upright piano. Nanao's voice sounds from out of frame.}

May I? {The salesman must have nodded, because she makes a delighted noise, and wheels over, carefully negotiating her way through the close-stacked piles of sheet music and recorders. She lifts the lid, and looks over her shoulder one last time, before she sets her fingers to the keys and begins to play. Tentative at first, she exhales and starts to lose herself in the music. There's no known notes to guide her, no carefully annotated sheet music, just herself and the piano and her memories.}

{The sheer sound cascades from her fingers out into the store, filling it with melody and joy and melancholy all at once, and it seems to be over all too soon, and she's left leaning over the keys, the last remnants of the sound fading slowly into the air, and she smiles.}


I'll take it.

I know Hyourinmaru vanished when Hinamori-san vanished, but Shiryuu needs a better trainer than I - and she's much calmer than Golduck-san.


{ooc: Feel free to bump into Nanao if you're in and around Goldenrod! You might even see her trundling through the streets of Goldenrod with a piano hovering behind her. There's an Alakazam sitting on top of the piano, which may or may not explain things.}

Really? Hmmm. {Sob, her gaydar is so totally malfunctional when it comes to Shinigami} And no, Rangiku-san, I find him cute as one would find a child cute.

...and how would you tell Kyouraku-taichou? He's not even in Johto.

Yes. So do you think we should set them up~? [ she'll then nod. ] Whatever. He's not dateable!

Well, Nanao my breasts have ESP and other psychic powers! That's how I'll tell him!

[ With a perfectly straight face she states this.

Yep. She just wants to make you giggle. ]

Well, you can. I'll sit back and deal with the fallout. Like always. {Le siiiigh.}

. . . {Poker. Face. but she is so unsure (http://l-userpic.livejournal.com/113181808/31324092) on the inside.}

So your breasts are Pokemon. Well, that's interesting.

Nanao will have a-

[ WAIT A MINUTE |: ]

My breasts are not a pokemon!! They existed waaaaaay before pokemon ever did!

{Trololol}

I know they did - you're so old, after all.

[identity profile] superboobies.livejournal.com 2011-10-21 06:26 am (UTC)(link)
I'm not that old! I'm just older than most of the creatures here, which is true since they didn't exist to you until a year ago or something!

[identity profile] used-glare.livejournal.com 2011-11-04 01:54 pm (UTC)(link)
I know, I know, I'm sorry. {Holding her hands up to show she's serious.}

I'm older than you, after all.

[identity profile] superboobies.livejournal.com 2011-11-05 08:39 am (UTC)(link)
You are?! I thought I was older! You seem like late-teens or early-twenties, while I'm more mid-twenties.

[identity profile] used-glare.livejournal.com 2011-11-05 11:36 am (UTC)(link)
How old one looks and how old one actually is don't exactly correlate in the afterlife, you know that.

Besides, I've been a Shinigami for over a century. I'm pretty sure I'm older than you.

[identity profile] superboobies.livejournal.com 2011-11-06 08:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, but you've been a Shinigami since you were physically six. I've been a Shinigami since I was physically sixteen on my face, and hair, and body size, but mid twenties everywhere else~!

[ giggles. ;w; ]

[identity profile] used-glare.livejournal.com 2011-11-12 11:48 am (UTC)(link)
Exactly! You're ageing faster than I am. Which is the point I meant to make earlier, but you distracted me.

{ S-she doesn't mean to be mean... ;n; }

[identity profile] superboobies.livejournal.com 2011-11-13 10:29 am (UTC)(link)
That's not true Nanao! My aging has slowed! My body hasn't aged at all and my face is starting to slow too as it catches up to my body! [ rangriku is angry. >| ]

[identity profile] used-glare.livejournal.com 2011-11-13 01:20 pm (UTC)(link)
You'll start ageing again once your face catches up to the rest of you. And then you will look older than me.

{...Nanao are you being insecure.}

[identity profile] superboobies.livejournal.com 2011-11-14 08:39 am (UTC)(link)
Tch. Nanao, I don't look younger than you. You just look like one of those strict college students that are focused and icy but really warm and vulnerable deep deep down.

[ peg'd. ]

{Saying nothing... mainly because she's right.}

. . .

[identity profile] superboobies.livejournal.com 2011-11-19 10:27 am (UTC)(link)
[ She doesn't think she's right. Instead she thinks she broke Nanao's feelings. ]

Nanao?! Nanao!? Are you okay?!

[identity profile] used-glare.livejournal.com 2011-11-21 03:46 am (UTC)(link)
{She just... looks away from the camera as she replies.}

I'm fine.

{Then why is your voice all shaky....}

[identity profile] superboobies.livejournal.com 2011-11-21 10:56 am (UTC)(link)
Really? Nanao!? Your breath is weak. [ she stares at her with a more sympathetic yet curious look. ]

[identity profile] used-glare.livejournal.com 2011-11-22 02:22 am (UTC)(link)
You were... rather close to the mark with your analysis, that's all.

[identity profile] superboobies.livejournal.com 2011-11-22 09:00 am (UTC)(link)
I really am always right when it comes to other people, Nanao. But thank you for speaking facts.

[identity profile] used-glare.livejournal.com 2011-11-24 07:49 am (UTC)(link)
I wouldn't say always right...

{Stop splitting hairs, Nanao.}

[identity profile] superboobies.livejournal.com 2011-11-24 12:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, c'mon Nanao! When have I been wrong~?

[identity profile] used-glare.livejournal.com 2011-11-27 06:10 am (UTC)(link)
A few times.

{But she sighs. I give in.}
