 '...'Cause I feel the distance between us Could be over with a snap of your fingers!' 'Oh no, I do not hook up! I go slow! So if you want me, I don't come cheap Keep your hand in my hand, your heart on your sleeve! Oh no, I do not hook up! I fall deep! 'Cause the more that you try, the harder I'll fight.. To say... 'Cause the more that you try, the harder I'll fight.. To say goodnight!'  'Wow, that subtle huh?' Rose observed, stepping up beside Bristan and giggling a bit.

 "Yeah... I think she's pissed off with me. I dunno why" He shrugged, bewildered.

'Oh sweetheart put the bottle down, 'cause you don't wanna miss out...' Goosie lowered the microphone as the music faded out, turning and heading off stage. She seemed satisfied that the point had gotten through when she saw Bristan's expression. 'Girls.' Rose simply said, smiling and shaking her head a bit. She watched Goosie walk past and head straight into the changing room.
'So how d'you like my outfit? I'll be up soon!' She said, changing the subject and doing a twirl for her friend.

"Are you really? Looks good... Who's up next, anyway?" He looked vaguely surprised as Laulella gave a cough. She had just sent orders for the piano to be put onstage for her to play, and so was waiting for that.

'Thanks,' She grinned a bit at him, looking around and then saying 'I dunno!'

 "Err. I am. Just waiting for the piano" She explained, watching the men onstage pushing one on.

 "Going to keep those guys on stage for your act?" Ven asked. "It seems a shame to just have them move the instruments about then leave."

 'Maybe they could strip if you get on stage and perform,' Asphyxia suggested.

"Hmm, didn't plan on it. It's cool, it's what they do. Although that guy's gonna play drums for me" She informed Ven, pointing out a tall, blond man."Anyway! Err. Wish me luck. Please don't tell Aizel if you see him or I'm dead" She admitted, before going onstage.

 Lella looked uncharacteristically vulnerable behind the piano, probably due to a lack of make-up and elaborate stage costume, but as soon as she began to play, she gave the introduction her all. It quietened to occasional chords as she began to sing, her voice raspy:Is it enough to have some love
Small enough to slip inside a book?
Small enough to cover with your hand
Because everyone around you wants to look?
Is it enough to have some love
Small enough to slip inside the cracks?
The pieces don't fit together so good
For all the breaking and all the gluing back

'So. Are you going up at some point, then?' she asked Ven.

The drums and piano kicked in, and as soon as she sang again, it was clear why she wanted to sing for a living:I'm still not getting what I want,
I wanna touch the back of your right arm
At least you could remind me who I was,
Because every day I'm a little further off!
But you are my love, the astronaut,
Flying in the face of science
I would gladly stay an afterthought
Just bring back a nice reminder!
And is it getting harder to pretend
That life goes on without you in the wake?
And can you see the means without the end,
And the random frantic action that we take?
And is it getting easy not to care,
Despite the many rings around your name?
It isn't funny, and it isn't fair
You've travelled all this way, it's the same!Bristan looked incredibly confused at the lyrics, until she said the word 'astronaut', at which he suddenly turned brick red again, mumbling:
"Wish people would stop dedicating s**t to me"

"Probably not. Zaer didn't tell me about this until today. Besides, I have no idea what to sing." Ven replied. "She's got some serious talent," he added, nodding at Lella.
