In The Pit
Oreo woke hours later and lethargically started to acknowledge the world around him once more. The lights were dim just like every other time he had fallen asleep. But something seemed...strange? Heavy? Warm?
Wait, the blankets were very heavy...or....His eyes drifted over to spot dark hair barely poking out of the blankets. He wasn't alone. But...But...It was hours later. Shouldn't Katsu have been at work?
For a moment, Oreo didn't know what to do. Let him sleep? Or wake him up? Finally he decided that waking him probably was the best thing to do. Because if the Doctor showed up in his room again, this young man probably couldn't stand another go in the frig.
"Katsu...." Oreo whispered. "Wake up....You've been here a long time. You probably need to go home now."

Nakai's show went off perfectly without a single hitch.
His songs were spot on, his backup was terrific, and to top it all off the audience was totally into the music!
So when the lights blinked out and Kai dove backstage, a stage hand taking his guitar from him and handing him a nice fluffy towel and bottle of water, there was an obvious smirk on the blond face as he took in his backstage guest.
"Glad you got to hear me in tune." Nakai teased with a wink before chugging down half the bottle of water and then proceeding to dry off his face and hair. "I've got to get out of this... care to join me?" he asked, motioning for Shou to follow him back to his dressing room.
First time in a long time, the guitarist wasn't thinking naughty thoughts at all. He just wanted to towel off.
Lights made one very sweaty.
"Mmmm.... warm... don't wanna..." Azriel whispered, clinging a bit tighter to Oreo.
He wasn't exactly aware of where he was to be perfectly honest.
In his sleepy and now warm and comfortable mind, he thought he was cuddling Hiroki and not his new accountant in the depths of hell itself...
"Smell donuts..." Katsu eventually murmured before actually licking Oreo's chest as if the man were the donut itself! Course the lick was tiny... very kittenish...

Shou laughed, "Yes I finally did. Much improved over you debut at the Charity Event." He looked Nakai over and wasn't at all surprised by the chugging of water and the desire to get changed. "Sure. I'll join you. I sort of have to wait for the hall to clear anyway since some one outed me." He poked fun right back at the star who seriously reminded him of Naoko in looks but little else.
As he followed Nakai to the dressing room he commented on the show, "Seems like you are experimenting more with your music. I enjoyed the funky beat. And your stage crew seemed to have their acts together too. I had a great time. So how many more nights are you on tour?"
-:{------------------------------------------------Cause it’s about to get rough for you
I’m here For Your Entertainment Oreo's chest stiffened as he was licked. Wow. Now that could really turn him on! But dang it! He was a patient and there was no way his body could handle him taking a chance with the sexy minx under the covers.
He tried to think of ways to get Katsu up but each idea could also get him clawed up by those sharp nails. Yeah he already was an experiment he didn't need to be gutted too.
So instead he decided the best thing to do was hang in there and pray that the Doctor wouldn't come. "I know you don't want to but you should. And if you get up, you can have a donut. I am sure there are some in the box still."
He nuzzled Katsu and was gentle as he could be. Katsu almost seemed like a child right now. And that worried Oreo just a little.

Katsumi let out a soft groan, but he stopped licking, a somewhat pouting expression coming over his face. "Mmm... sato... don't want to move..." he whispered.
Dark eyes though opened to mere slits and the bat looked up into Oreo's face. There was an obvious confusion in those dark depths and for a moment, Katsu reached one hand up, black nails gently stroking the sick man's cheek.
"How did... doko..."
Pushing himself up, Azriel was now hovering over Oreo, staring down at the man. He was confused and not quite awake yet... still sluggish from being half frozen.
Then he blinked once... twice... a third time to clear away some of the grogginess. Looking around, Katsu sighed before laying back down beside Oreo and covering himself up with the blanket completely.
"I should sleep never to feverish men more often..." the bat whispered, trying to will his body to actually get up and move a bit more. "I fell asleep after the fridge... ugh... least I'm not so cold any more..." his voice was soft until there was a sudden ********!" Katsumi literally fell off the side of the bed.
He was fine of course, his a** hurt a little, but nothing too bad.
"I slept all day... ughhhhhh!!!!"
And now the realization hit him. He wouldn't get anything done at work today and no doubt his crew was pissed... no doubt Kaito had a thing or two to say to him about it too.
Pulling himself up to sit on the edge of the bed, Katsu sighed. "THAT is partly why I hate being cold... my whole damn body just decides it's sleep time without giving me any say in the matter..."
Nakai quickly stripped out of the costume top, which was a nice black leather, and tossed it aside before toweling himself off again. "Gah if I could get rid of any one thing during a gig... it would be the heat." he said, grabbing another bottle of water and tossing it to Shou to be polite. "Hmmm... well I'll take the compliment. Some of my stuff isn't completely perfected yet, but the album's selling really well so I can't complain. I've even write a couple new songs for my next single during my free time in the bus. Though... I've only played the top half the country. I'm heading south next, but I get a week off first... thank the gods! I need some serious sleep and recharge time. This is really the first full set I've played where I was the complete center of attention, you know."

Shou casually watched as Nakai stripped off his top. Ok so maybe a few more differences. Nakai was a bit more toned under that top than Naoko. He cocked an eyebrow for a moment considering the view. He definitely couldn't complain. "Well I can say open arenas are few and far between unless you're doing stadiums. I'll be doing a couple of those this time around. The heat is much less so you've something to look forward to." chuckled Shou. At least, Nakai didn't mention the other factor about the heat - the costumes.
"Mm....I didn't see your CD being sold at the promotional table where I procured these goodies so I guess I'll have to have someone pick it up for me this week." mused Shou out loud as he opened the water bottle he had caught moments before. "I can say that music never becomes perfect. You'll always find something you want to tweak later."
He sipped the water and it sure did feel good going down. When it came to touring and the period before the tour, he practical lived on water and a stricter diet. Well, most often. When he was feeling down he ate poorly at the buffet but it was only one day compared to the others. Sometimes life threw curve balls.
"The concert halls get better to the South. So I think you'll be happier with the heat. More AirCon. Ah...when you're headed South I'll be starting my tour. I'm sure I'll be complaining about similar things once I'm on the road. Preparing for arena tours is quite a bit more challenging than concert halls. So many logistics that it can boggle the mind. My assistant felt I should take a couple days off but I really feel like I should be working. So we will see if I can manage that." Yes, he would never reveal his real reason for needing time off. And replaced the truth with something that sounded more realistic. He'd never want to say to anyone that he was rejected by someone he cared about then two men tried to make him feel better by kissing him. And one of those men really wanted to do more than just kiss. It sounded like some sort of comedy skit with Shou being the victim of a prank.
"Well you deserve to be the center of attention. Your stage show was fun and energetic. I really enjoyed listening to your guitar. It had a little different sound from the last time I heard you play. I enjoyed myself immensely. But..I do understand the need for sleep though. And I already envy your tour being half done. My tour is looming close. I'll be on the road within two weeks plus a few days " he sighed thinking of all the work. Sometimes it was daunting to imagine all that needed to be done.
"I'd recommend having a good massage once you're on your recharge time." he said with a light grin. "And see a chiropractor. It will make you feel more human." He wasn't being suggestive because they were talking shop. Shou was actually happy to talk about something he enjoyed and not all the other things that had been plaguing his life. "So is this your last performance before your week off? Mmm....and am I keeping you from your fans?" Shou knew that many stars took a little time to greet the lucky ones that got back stage passes. Shou rarely did back stage events anymore because of the major costume changes he went through on tours. Sometimes he'd come around front afterwards to see some of the fans once he was cleaned up. It was just easier that way.

In The Pit
Oreo smiled a little as those nails stroked him. "You know any other day sleeping with a sweet young thing like yourself really would have given me quite a rise." Oreo's face held a slight furrowed brow. Whatever Shizuka had done earlier was definitely leaving him because the pain was returning bit by bit.
"I'm glad I could be so accommodating." answered Oreo with a nod. "No I think you warmed up pretty quickly under all the blankets and sleeping next to me. However, I think I need to get a couple of these....ooooOoFFF..WHOA! Katsu!" Oreo leaned over the bed quickly looking down at the younger man. "You ok?"
"Yeah...umm....you did. And sorry, I didn't wake up until just a moment ago. I couldn't be of much help." He reached down to help Katsu but it appeared the man was able to get up without him. "Yeah...well you pretty much leeched on to me and there was nothing anyone could do. So...maybe you should work some tonight. Although I don't know what time it is. And how your crew is going to feel about that."
Meanwhile, Kaito had sent everyone home after doing all that they could without Katsumi. Yamada-san was furious but he wasn't blaming Kaito. The young man had even gone all the way home to Katsu's house looking for him on lunch. He had called Katsu every 30 minutes but no answer. Nishikawa and Takatori found the limo and driver waiting in the Pit's garage but the young man hadn't come out yet.

"I'm fine..." Azriel was pouting, very VERY annoyed that he'd wasted the day.
In truth, he hadn't intended to remain with Oreo that long.
"And it's not your fault. Stupid shark's fault... Hmm? No, I don't want to keep my crew over hours if they've been working all day today without me. I'll just get in touch with a couple of people and apologize then get an early start tomorrow... and a damn hot bath tonight, ugh... I'm still cold deep down." Katsu shivered slightly as he stood back up, making sure he wasn't leaving anything. I need to leave before the Doctor returns... damn... I can't believe I slept here so long..."
There was something a bit paranoid and nervous in Azriel's movements and voice. He felt like bolting, but a part of him worried about going out the damn door and running into the Doctor...
Nakai sat down in the makeup chair, taking a few makeup remover pads from a box in front of him and began rubbing them over his face. His skin would be able to breathe better when it was gone after all. The position though allowed him to watch Shou's reflection in the mirror.
"Less heat would be wonderful. I'm not used to such hot clothes... sometimes it makes me miss the club gigs, you know? That intimate one on one with the audience. OH! Yeah my cd was being sold on the other side of the building. That and dvd pre-sales... feel lucky, Shou-san, you're gonna be in my dvd." he teased, knowing that this was the concert that would be used. "They devoted the other side to just that and then promo goods on the side you checked out." the blond was rubbing makeup off his nose ferociously almost, trying to scrub it out of his pores. "I didn't have a lot to plan for this beast... but then again my style's different than yours or Narcissus's. I'm not going for grand theatrics and beautiful lyrics... just straight up rock and roll, you know?" Kai teased, spinning around in the chair to face the other man now that his skin felt clean again. "'tsk... we all need a day or two off, Shou-san. Lets you recharge and really feel the music, you know? I'm overjoyed about a week off which yeah, does start as of RIGHT NOW! As for my fans though, well I did the meet and greet prior to the show. I've got more energy then anyway so I figured..." he stood as he talked. "Let the lucky fans get the full me instead of the exhausted 'just go away' me." the guitarist laughed before pointing to the bag. "So tell me, what sorts of promo goods does Shou-san fancy, hmm?"

Oreo relaxed a little as Katsu pouted. "Well it could be worse so don't feel to bad. You got a great day's sleep with me." He tried to put a little brevity into the moment since there was nothing much else he could do. "Just say you caught Naoko's cold and were at the doctor's all day. Part of that statement is true." he smirked then glanced at the door.
"Maybe you should just go now while you're able. It's not far to the elevator right?" Oreo looked up at the camera. "I bet Ono-san is in there. So just ask him to check outside so you can get out. I'd help you walk out but if I did, Ono-san would be a bit pissed with me."
Meanwhile, even as Oreo was glancing at the door, the door was opening, "Ah...I still smell donuts. There must be at least one more in that box. Well, hello Oreo-kun. I see that you are a...." The Doctor paused and peered at the extra person in the room and suddenly the clipboard that was in his hand snapped shut. "What are you doing down here? And why wasn't I told of your presence?!"

Shou watched as the other man took off the makeup. Ok...so even without the makeup Nakai had an uncanny similarity to Naoko. It was like looking in the mirror and seeing both men. Maybe the two were distantly related? Of course Shou sort of put the thought to the far back of his mind that Naoko had said that HE and Naoko were related. That part hadn't set well with the Star. No actually not HE and Naoko but....Sai...This other self that plagued the Star from beyond the mirror.
"Ah...so that's how I missed it. Well, I suppose I was in a bit of a hurry and didn't want to be late for the opening of the show." Then he rolled his eyes. "Oh I see...you know once my fans know I'm somewhere on that DVD they will buy them. Using me for marketing...tsk." He was teasing of course but he had the right! He had expected to slip in and out of this event like any other lowly fan. But here he was now, talking to Nakai. Ok...so that wasn't so bad. Nakai was good looking and in a great mood. Who wouldn't be after such a good performance.
"Yes, I suppose that this tour is a little bit easier to deal with than what I'll be heading out with soon. Straight up rock-n-roll has it's merits. Low over head and very little need for special costumes. Although I think the leather suits you." he added his own smirk and a wink. "The girls in the seats were very happy with it."
"Ah...yes, I suppose but I rarely get that time around a tour. Ok this is an exception to my own rules. And I did have a lot of fun and feel more human than I have in the past couple of weeks. So I suppose it was a good choice." Shou chuckled as the man spun around and faced him. Yes, very good looking and much more dominant than Naoko could be. It would be easy to tell them apart by posture and personality alone.
Then Shou leaned back and laughed, "You've quite a bit of energy right now for the 'Just go home' self that you claim to be at the end of the show. Or is this your 'I'm FREE!' self I'm meeting that's covering up the 'OMG I want to fall asleep' self underneath'?"
Shou grinned then leaned down and pulled up his bag into his lap the fished inside. "Me...I bought the guitar picks and pj pants. Then....mm....well...I got a shirt for Ko-kun. Of course I got a few of the unmentionables for sheer humor value and the sheets for another friend of mine who I thought would enjoy them. They are too small for my bed." He mused at the thought of having Nakai's sheets on his bed. And he certainly wouldn't mention Naoko's name because really he didn't know how the two felt about each other. It could have been like Katsumi and Narcissus. Were there seemed to be...some clashes of personality? He preferred not to be involved in any more...drama. "Mm...I wonder if these picks are actually real picks..." He pulled them out and opened the pack. "Might work....did you try them out?"
He tossed a pick Nakai's way and then strummed across an imaginary guitar, "Maybe I could use this...."

Smiling slightly, Azriel nodded. "Well I suppose that's true... I did get a good amount of sleep in... and at least now I feel well rested. I just wish it could've been under better circumstances." he spoke, pouring his coffee down the sink and then throwing the cup and lid in the trash. Dark eyes focused on Oreo. "I'll keep watch on you. Yakusouku. But yeah, I need to leave before..."
At that exact moment the door opened and at first Katsumi simply thought that it was Ono finally returning.
What he saw though drained the color from his face.
Steeling himself in the pit of his stomach, Katsu put on an air of confidence. "I was simply here to check on Oreo-san's condition. He seems to be doing much better today from what he's told me."
Okay so inside, Azriel was cringing in terror. He knew that Oreo was in no condition to come to his aid should it be needed... and he also knew that both #2 and Ono were completely out of the picture on this one as well.
Laughing, Kai flashed Shou a mischievous grin, "If you popping into my show gets me a few more fans, then I'm grateful. Better you than Narcissus in my book." he then snapped his fingers, walking over to a bag on the wall and pulling out a copy of his cd.
He grabbed a sharpie from the table and signed it before handing it off to Shou. "Free of charge for the publicity." he teased with a wink before sitting down next to the other man on the room's comfortable sofa.
Tilting his head back, amber eyes closing, Kai just sighed. "Youkatta... You have no idea how glad I am for a break. And of COURSE this is my 'I'm Free!' self! Living life to it's fullest it important to me, but killing myself with too much work along the way isn't exactly how I want to be remembered." he laughed with another wink, grabbing a new bottle of water from the table in front of them. "I hit the studio hard after you guys got back from Hawaii and when I wasn't at the studio I was standing in a friend of mine's kitchen in the middle of the night, writing on any tablet I could find." the guitarist rolled his eyes, knocking back another half a bottle of water. "But I'm glad you enjoyed the leather..." he added with a suggestive grin. "Nothing as glamorous as your Victorian costumes... but it has it's uses, ne?"
Amber eyes were focused on the items in the bag before one eyebrow rose. "I'm going to take a wild guess, Shou-san... and say you bought those sheets just to see your pianist sleep on them..." the guitarist spoke seriously, but then he smiled.
It was a bit of a different smile though...
Kai knew what Naoko had done to the 'kid' after all... and while he'd need to get over it since Chiyou never intended to press charges and thus there was nothing he could do about it... it still amazed him that Shou had someone that dangerous hanging around.
"So aside from tour duty, what've you been up to lately, Shou-san? Oh um... yeah the picks work." he quickly fished into his pocket and pulled out one of his spares.
It was exactly like the ones from the packages... only a bit chewed up.
"Want to test it? I've got a few guitars in the next room."

Oreo froze in the bed. If he could have become a statue he would have been solid. This was the point he had no idea what to say because it was utterly bad luck that Katsu was still here.
"Simply here checking on Ono-kun's experiment? YOU shouldn't be down here without my knowledge. This isn't some hall that you can casually walk in and out of. It's MY Domain! EVEN Soto-san knows better than to come down here....especially alone." hissed the mad man. The Doctor never fully approached Katsu but he didn't back away either. He was a short man with his free hand in his pocket as one clutched the clipboard.
Oreo's eyes drifted over to the Doctor smelling the odor of bleach now prevalent in the room. Did the Doctor bath in that crap or what!?
"Do you know what I do to offenders in MY Domain?" The Doctor paused staring at Katsu, "Of course you do....you've been here before....so many times."
Do you know what you got into

"But Narcissus would have given you good publicity too. However, I'll take that as a compliment." Shou smirked then leaned back on the couch before catching the CD. "Why thank you! Oooh...and it's signed too. I wonder what I'd get for this on Ebay." he teased as he slipped the CD into his bag.
"Oh I know exactly how you feel. I'll feel that way in a few months." said Shou thoughtfully as he watched the other man grab a water from the table. Nakai was a flirt winking all the time. He could see where this man could be trouble much different from Naoko who was fairly quiet and rather submissive.
"So that's what you've been doing with your time. Although standing in a friend's kitchen writing on a tablet all night doesn't sound nearly as fun. However at least you use a tablet I tend to write on my arm, hand, leg if I have nothing better. I'm sure not to lose the lyrics that way. Napkins also work and paper towels. I usually keep a roll of those in the limo just for those moments of inspiration." he mused as he sipped on his water. Fortunately he didn't need to chug the water down because he hadn't performed at all except for a minor hand wave.
"Leather seems to suit your image." he chuckled then shook his head, "The Victorian costumes mop up the sweat a little better, but I do suffer from the dry cleaning bills."
"Wild guess?" Shou cocked his head and looked at the man then his eyes widened with amusement, "Oh great, so you figured out my little scheme!" He smiled a bit brighter. "Ok so I thought it would be rather....clever. You and he do look quite alike. It's uncanny. And you two aren't related at all....Even more uncanny. So yes, I had to get Naoko-kun the sheets. I'm sure he won't know what to say when I give them to him." Shou seriously had no clue that Naoko could be dangerous. It was entirely beyond his thoughts. Although he knew Naoko took medication and had a few problems, he wasn't prying into his pianist's life that deeply.
"Mmm...me....mm.. well today I worked on one of my PVs and the day before was a costume fitting day. That way I'd have the costumes for the PVs. Before that...studio...studio...arena prep work....back lot set design, a few run throughs of the special effects. Oh yes, and deciding my opening act. I have no life." The star's shoulders slumped for a moment with the thought of how busy everything really was lately.
Shou glanced at the picks that Nakai pulled out of his pocket. "I would be happy to test out these picks with you." He grinned then picked up the other one that had been in the pack as he stood from the couch. "I'm rather curious as to what sort of guitars your fiddling with nowadays. Still have the one you used at the charity event? Or have you upgraded?" He winked at the man because he'd never let Nakai live that one down.

Katsu's dark eyes narrowed ever so slightly, "This may be your domain... but he," the bat pointed to Oreo. "is my property. You can speak with Soto-san if you don't believe me... but I've bought your apprentice's newest experiment and I have a right to check on him and his progress. Since I thought it best not to disturb you with a mere visitation, I didn't seek you out."
Which was true...
But he also didn't seek the Doctor out for other reasons than that. The man scared the s**t out of him... a product of Azriel's darkest nightmares... his own personal Freddy ******** Krueger to put it more bluntly... if the bat had ever seen those particular horror movies from the states that is.
"I know what you do to those who cross your path... alone... We both know I'm not as addled as to have forgotten what your cruel hands can do."

"Your property? Since when?" his eyes narrowed as they peered over at Oreo. That wasn't necessarily a good thing to tell the Doctor. Now his anger could freely bleed to the defenseless if he so chose. "I certainly will check with Soto-san because why should I believe you? And EVEN if you are just 'visiting' I want to know. This isn't a hospital."
The Doctor walked over to the donut box and snagged one from within. His original intention that had been marred by such a frustrating interruption! "Well...at least you remember what my cold hands can do." His fingers lifted the donut as his dangerous eyes kept themselves upon Katsu. "So what should I do with you now that you're here. Visitor or Not....You're still in My domain without Matsumoto...without Soto. Brave little boy to come here all by yourself."

"Since your lackey drug him down here." Azriel replied, a tiny bit of an edge creeping into his voice. "I paid a lot of money for him and I am expecting him to be returned to me in one piece, sensei. This experiment intrigued me when Ono-san told me of it... or rather, when I pried the information from him. If it's a success, I can understand further development."
His dark eyes never left the Doctor as the man stared back. "I am in your domain without Matsumoto-san or Soto-san, I admit. And while this is far from a hospital, I haven't the time nor the luxury to make an appointment. Oreo-kun's well being is important to me, sensei. What this experiment could yield is also important."

Standing, Nakai motioned for Shou to follow him into the other room. "Well of course I kept that guitar! It's my favorite of the bunch! Besides, it's finally in tune." he added with a wink before opening the door and allowing Shou to choose any guitar he wanted.
There were six of them in total, each a set of a pair and thus there were three different brands to choose from.
"See, another good thing about being me... no real set designs or special effects to consider for the most part. Sure, I have costuming and prep work and studio time and of course PV shooting... but I don't have to worry with all the picky little details because what's important to me is my music being heard by the fans." the guitarist shrugged slightly, grabbing his once out of tune guitar. "Don't get me wrong, what you and Narcissus do is awesome. It really blows my mind to be honest. But I'm a bit simpler than that, I think." Kai ended in a laugh, strumming his guitar's strings a few times with his chewed up pick.
"Yeah well I know your pianist. Almost dated him at once point. I'm surprised that he's so close to you though... man's got a few problems upstairs... least from my point of view."
No, Nakai wasn't going to talk much about Naoko's issues. He didn't really know them and, to be honest, it wasn't exactly his business. But he was curious how the pianist and the peacock got along.
"I've done that too though... written on my hands and arms and napkins and the like. So I started carrying around a small tablet that can fit in my back pocket. Helps for those spur of the moment ideas, you know?"

In The Pit
"Yes...at the time my Lackey drug him down here, he wasn't your property. I've access to the same system as Soto-san. I know he wasn't yours then. So don't give me that tone of voice. It gets you nowhere with me." scoffed the Doctor as he opened his clipboard and ran a finger along the contents. His finger stopped on a certain spot but his eyes never left Katsu.
"You've high expectations and we will see if he makes it." It seemed that the Doctor was at least curious as to what would happen with Oreo. The conversation appealed to his darker inspirations. His passion for experimentation was far more driven than anything else in his life. "Yes, if it is a success, it would have great impact in the art of medicine...and future progress."
Then the Doctor's lips pursed in a frown, "You've time to call. You've a phone. You can call Soto. You know the rules of this place. You may be able to wander 1-4 freely but you are NOT allowed to wander down here. No matter who is down here. You're not beyond the rules, Katsu-kun even if you live far beyond these walls."

"Your favorite? Seriously? Well, then maybe you should play that one for me so I can finally hear it's in tuneness up close and personal." he laughed as he followed the man into the next room. His eyes drifted over the 3 choices and his fingers finally settled on one that was different from the out of tune guitar. It had nice flare to it's body but a slender neck. He had heard this one on stage and knew what it could sound like.
"Mmm? A good thing? Oh...well I'm sure there is plenty of bad things that could be mentioned but let's stick the good...I've read the magazines about your bad boy nature." teased Shou. It was a playful not really flirting kind of tease. Even though Nakai was very attractive, Shou right now was really kind of worn out of people coming on to him. "But yes, that does make it easier not to have so many things to worry about on a set. I've just always liked pulling the fans into my fantasy. Every artist has a different magic to draw in the crowd. Yours is just less...flashy than mine."
He strummed a few notes on the guitar then plucked along it with the pick. "Mm... this one feels pretty good. Nice sound...." Then he paused and looked up, titling his head to the side not quite believing what Nakai had said, "You almost dated Naoko-kun? Really?"
Shou seemed thoughtful for a moment and his brow furrowed, "Well, he does have problems. But everyone has problems. And I don't know what all of his are of course, but I know he has actively sought help. He is a good pianist and he tries very hard. So...that is what is important at least to me." Shou knew nothing obviously of Naoko's actions in the previous year. He was blissfully unaware of things. Although deeper inside Sai worried about his brother's mental health. However, as long as Naoko took his medication things would be fine...right?
His fingers started creating a random song as he spoke, it really was easy for Shou to do two things at once especially with guitar. The instrument he loved. "A tablet? Electronic like an Ipad? Or something smaller than that?" This intrigued the star because while he had given one to Ko he hadn't thought about all he could do for himself with one.
Then he stopped talking for a moment and let the rhythm of the music at his fingertips take him away. His fingers strolled down the neck of the guitar while his other hand crossed the strings with the pick. As he warmed up, he started to drift a bit into what Nakai had performed on stage. "I really liked this part you did. I think it went like....this." His fingers ran across the guitar creating that funky sound, "It made me want to add something like this behind it...." Then his fingers worked into his idea for another guitar and the rhythm it could make behind Nakai's original piece. He really was just noodling around and having fun but his mind was filled with inspiration. Mini Jam Session...yeah!
