[looks over at Emily from where she's stretching nearby] Every day it gets more and more like 'Fame' here.

[sweet_as_candy]

[She stopped playing for a moment, leaning forward to rest her arms against the top of the piano] I love it here, people just start playing together. It's amazing.

[thisisthenoise]

I feel like I should bust a move whenever I walk into a room. Still, could be worse.

[sweet_as_candy]

I think people just like to express themselves, most of the people here came from school's where it wasn't cool or hip, or whatever they say, to be artistic.

[thisisthenoise]

It's like one big delayed orgasm of creativity. [which somehow manages to sound like she's agreeing with her]

What about you? Was your school like that?

[sweet_as_candy]

[She's just going to turn very red at the word orgasm and clear her throat]

Not exactly, no. Music's like second nature where I'm from.

[thisisthenoise]

[That doesn't go unnoticed and gets a little flicker of a smirk]

Must be a nice place to come from.

[sweet_as_candy]

It is, yes. My parents were always supportive when it came to music, they said it makes a person more interesting to have a talent.

[thisisthenoise]

Ah, mine are more of the washed up and bitter variety.

[sweet_as_candy]

I'm sorry to hear that.

[thisisthenoise]

[shrugs] Yeah, it's tragic, feel my pain, blah blah.

Anyway. I'm assuming you have a name, right?

[sweet_as_candy]

Emily Love.

[thisisthenoise]

So Emily Love, what do you do here besides impromptu piano performances?

[sweet_as_candy]

Do? Oh, right. I'm studying music performance and creation, you're dance right?

[thisisthenoise]

[raises an eyebrow, surprised Emily knows that] Yeah, contemporary. And you can call me Theo, by the way.

[sweet_as_candy]

Your clothes and posture give it away, plus the stretching.

[thisisthenoise]

Very attentive of you.

[sweet_as_candy]

Thanks, I think.

[thisisthenoise]

It's a compliment. The vast majority are so wrapped up in their own little bubble of future stardom that other people don't exactly register much. Beyond 'nice ass' or 'cute purse' or whatever.
