Library, Saturday - 11/27

[hotmugofstfu.livejournal.com]

Since he wasn't exactly, you know, human... these two days off for a day of eating and getting up ridiculously early in order to shop for things they don't really need didn't really make sense to Blackagar.

So, he was just going to stay in the library and avoid the insanity.

It worked for him!

[[OCD? Bah!]]

"Oh," said Ariel, nodding slightly with a thoughtful frown. "I suppose you're right. Medusa's wonderful, but she really doesn't have much of an Elvis swagger, you know?"

[hotmugofstfu.livejournal.com]

Okay, what was all this jibba-jabba?

He gave her another confused look at the mention of 'swagger'. Someone needed to introduce the boy to MTV. And then fear for the future of the Marvel universe. Fear.

[shes-got-legs.livejournal.com]

But MTV didn't even show music anymore, geez.

"Well, you know," said Ariel, "that...drawl, that swagger, his little..."

This clearly demanded that Ariel demonstrate, with a little grunt and hip shake and lip curl in her best Elvis impression. Which wasn't very good, but, come on, she'd only known about the King for so long herself.

She had to giggle at herself, though, and add, "You could probably rock a rhinestone jumpsuit, though, sure."

...maybe some Jersey Shore?

Though her impression was enough to make Blackagar smize smile in a way that was as close to a laugh as he got. Well, when Medusa wasn't in the room.

"Anyway," Ariel said, smiling back because she was always glad to make someone smile even if Blackagar's smizing was no where as good as Jono's, "even if you don't do Elvis, whatever you guys come up with will be awesome; it always is. But the duets is actually why I'm here today! The library's got to have some songbooks, right?"

HIS SMIZE WAS FUCKING AMAZING.

Well, it was a magical library that may or may not allow people to travel through L-Space...

Blackagar nodded, moving out from behind the desk to lead her to where those books would be. And perhaps he would grab one as well.

Ariel happily bounced after Blackager, babbling along as if to make up for the conversation being so one-sided. "I want to find a really good one," she informed him. "I was thinking that maybe, since you and Jono don't sing, you guys should pair up, but it would be interesting to see what you and Medusa would come up with anyway. Unless I found a good one about having red hair, and then I might have to steal her away from you, Blackager."

Well, she could try, but he doubted that would work. Since... you know.

Cousins.

Ahem.

He grabbed a book at random off the shelf, offering it to her with an amused look. The book might have been about hearts that were in pain. And broken apart.

[shes-got-legs.livejournal.com]

"Awwwww," Ariel said, after flipping through the book a little bit. "These won't work; I don't want to sing about heartbreak....But they do sound lovely..."

[hotmugofstfu.livejournal.com]

Fishing out his notepad, Blackagar jotted down a quick:

Who are you singing with?

[shes-got-legs.livejournal.com]

Ariel had to smile at little about the notebook. Oh, that brought her back.

"I'm not sure yet," she admitted, bouncing a little still. "It all depends on what kind of song I can find, and then I'll go from there. There's definitely a lot of good people to choose from, though."

[hotmugofstfu.livejournal.com]

You could try an Elvis song, he wrote, showing it to her with a grin. Her impression was lovely, after all!

[shes-got-legs.livejournal.com]

"Do you think so?" asked Ariel, laughing. "I guess I could pull off white and sequins pretty well, too!"

And then her laugh became a snort. "Or get Puck to wear one."

Blackagar nodded, keeping a very serious face while doing so. So you knew it had to be for real.
