I hope you're not intending To be so condescending It's as much as I can take And you're so independent You just refuse to bend So I keep bending 'till I break. xXx"Glad to hear it. How about we go to where you'd like to go and it'll be my treat? I haven't eaten human foods in quite some time so I'm not all that great at making decisions like that," Lurtz responded while briefly wiping the lipstick mark from the bunny girl off his forehead. She didn't need such a thing and yet she was apparently more comfortable with it. Scratching the side of his neck, he briefly motioned for Dragon to lead the way, his foot keeping the door held open. Not only that, but he hadn't paid any attention to the restaurants on the way here so he wasn't quite sure what all was around here.
These are my words That I've never said before I think I'm doing okay And this is the smile That I've never shown before Somebody shake me 'cause I I must be sleeping.

Hearing Lurtz suggest he be the one to pick where to eat, Dragon tensed up. "O-Oh, umm...." Fiddling with his fingers, he dropped his gaze shamefully. "I-I don't eat human food... being part Wendigo, and all..." he mumbled. He couldn't stomach cooked food. He was hoping for Lurtz to lead the way and he would just sit there while he ate.

I didn't know Wendigos couldn't eat cooked foods though," he suggested while brushing his hair out of his face. It honestly wasn't something he liked to do so he avoided having to feed until he almost drove himself mad with the burning in the back of his throat. Even when he did feed, the pale, ice blue haired male only took the bare minimum so as to pacify his hunger for the time being and then rinsed and repeated the process. His father usually got amd about this habit of his, but never really did anything since he did feed every once in a while. It wasn't like he'd just locked himself up in a room awaiting himself to become a savage beast just so he'd get killed. No, he wasn't suicidal, but it didn't mean he liked having to take from others in order to survive.

Still rubbing the back of his head, Dragon nodded. "I-I can only eat raw meat." he mumbled and closed his eyes for a second until remembering something. "Oh!" he gasped as he opened his eyes and looked up with a small smile. "But I can drink human things!" He blushed timidly and rubbed his arm. "D-Do you like m-milkshakes?"

I hope you're not intending To be so condescending It's as much as I can take And you're so independent You just refuse to bend So I keep bending 'till I break. xXx"Milk...shake? Never had one before to be honest. My father was against human foods when I was younger so my mother had to feed me elven foods until I was switched into a vampire. He couldn't quite tell me no to human foods when we started playing the parts of a human family in cities though so he just refused to allow sweets as part of our human diet. Since returning to the coven, however, he seems a little more lenient about what foods we eat. Are they good?" Lurtz responded somewhat hesitantly although a hint of curiosity passed through his voice. Would his father be upset about him getting a milkshake? Why was he even worrying about it? He was already in trouble so he should just relax about it for now. If his father got any angrier at him, the most he'd do is stick a knife through his shoulder or his side and make him return to his duties with it still set into place yet refusing anyone else remove it even if he had to draw a sword in order to keep anyone else from doing so.

Dantes_river I'll post first, but, uh, I might not be on for some time. My sis just came back from college :0  ҈ ҉ ʬ ɖʀѦɢѻЛ From boy to man.
Dragon's changing eyes lit up as he heard Lurtz, quite unsure of how to take it. "Y-You've never had one?" he gasped and quickly grabbed his friend by the wrist, a huge smile spreading on his face. It was strange, smiling. It felt so alien to the young man now, but it felt... nice. His eyes turned golden. "I-I know just the place! You'll love them!" he beamed and began dragging Lurtz away.

Awesome nerd { It's fine. I'm patient. }  xXxXxLurtz “Vallyne” Allÿwar
I hope you're not intending To be so condescending It's as much as I can take And you're so independent You just refuse to bend So I keep bending 'till I break. xXxAllowing the darker haired male drag him away, Lurtz had just briefly shook his head as his answer since he'd just said he hadn't had one. At least the other male was taking the lead now. He didn't know much about this city let alone really care since he wouldn't, or shouldn't, be here very long. He was just here to finish his high school credits before going to work for the rest of his undead life serving the vampire kingdoms.

Anything was capable of being turned into music, one just had to know how to do so. Heck, Eric had made a couple of songs into parodies when he was just trying to cheer up Torithÿn. "He was most likely a grand musician and composed beautiful, feeling music. I wish I could've met him," Eric murmured to where even as they passed strangers, she'd be the only one to hear him. Brushing his hair behind his ear, he contemplated which song he should tell her he'd written.
After padding into the classroom, he gave her a slight nod before sliding the little bench out from under the piano known as Bathsheba. "I believe you might know several of them. Let's see... There is..." Eric started up before lightly running his fingers over the keys to The Phantom of the Opera. And after about a minute and a half, his fingers stopped and he smiled lightly as he raised his gaze back up to Ophelia. "Sing once again with me, our strange duet. My power over you grows stronger yet. And though you turn from me to glance behind, the phantom of the opera is there inside your mind."

Ophelia IncendiaTheme songDon't give up, it's just the hurt that you hide She nodded, smiling sadly. "He would have liked you," she said sincerely, before standing beside the piano and looking down at him. She was almost lost in her thoughts, until he sang. Oh, he had such a wonderful voice! So rich, and so very mind-rattling. He sounded in love with the music, like he manipulated the notes in the air, and then she saw his eyes. Her cheeks instantly grew red, and Ophelia turned her head, choosing to reply to the lyrics. "Those who have seen your face draw back in fear. I am the mask you wear," she left off, her voice hanging in the air as she awaited his response. Her voice was raw, and obviously untrained, but it held true talent. If Ophelia was taught correctly, she could become a very talented singer, both operatic and modern. When you're lost inside, I will be there to find you

My spirit and your voice in one combine. The phantom of the opera is there..." Eric smiled lightly as he could hear it. It was there, the beauty behind the music, untrained and raw as her voice was. He could work with this. It wouldn't be as difficult as trying to get Tori to stop turning his words into a faster paced song that sounded like a rap much less giving it some screaming bits. Ugh. The brief memory that flashed through his head made him shudder. Music of the Night was not supposed to be a rap and he didn't want to even recall how Tori had changed it with such ease. Slightly turning towards Ophelia, he couldn't help but to keep on smiling.
"My first composition of it was the instrumental version to which I wasn't sure of whether I could write words to it or not. And then Yué started going on about how girls were icky as our parents were teasing about how in the future we'd have our own families with a wife and children of our own. Then I met her and the words just came to me... Music without feelings put into them are just empty shells to which there is no beauty after all. An example; Taylor Swift. We get the point. She either can't get the guy she likes' attention or some guy did her wrong and they're never ever getting back together. I personally can't get over the fact that her teeth are so large that she's incapable of shutting her mouth. And don't even get me started on that Bieber boy... Sorry... I didn't mean to start ranting about how the people of today are ruining music," Eric started in a calm tone of voice although the mention of Taylor Swift and Justin Bieber showed his irritation at some of the music he didn't really like of the present day music. After noticing his brief drifting off of the topic of lessons, a light blush crept up on his face as he seemed somewhat embarrassed by his brief rant. He was indeed embarrassed at having done that, but quickly managed to compose himself enough to remove his shoe and chunk it at the wall Yué had been halfway through, his arms shifting into a mist to tell Eric he'd lost track of Torithÿn.
"Brothers... I swear, I can't ever sit down and just take a breath without them bickering or losing Tori. Either way, I suppose we can start by seeing how high and how low you can sing. Then we can see what types of music your voice is more capable of performing. Opera is a definite possibility considering how well you were singing one of my most popular compositions. A few pointers would be to stand, or sit if you'd like, up straight so your lungs are capable of gathering as much air as is possible when you go to take a breath when pausing briefly in a song. Alright?" This was followed by a slight grimace as Yué handed him his shoe back and then moved over to the other piano in the room, his fingers playing the 'dun-dun-dun' sound used when something bad was going to happen. And that got a sharp glare from his elder brother.

Ophelia IncendiaTheme songDon't give up, it's just the hurt that you hide She giggled at Eric and his brothers, incredibly amused. After hearing his words, however, Ophelia became serious once more and stood up straight, slightly amazed to find that she could breathe much better. With her back straight and her shoulders back, Ophelia's...endowments seemed to grow in size, and if one glanced at her just the right way, they would spy the incredibly beautiful woman she was quickly becoming. "Like this?" she asked, adjusting her stance slightly. "So, how are we going to do this? You play a note, and I try to match?" When you're lost inside, I will be there to find you

"Your posture is correct, but my method of teaching music isn't like Messer Vaporatti or used very often. Opera uses all of the highs and lows of a voice and since I already know you're capable of singing opera, we'll merely use the song I was just playing to help train your voice. I find voices and instruments similar, but not quite the same since every instrument sounds different which makes the real point of hitting notes in your voice sound different than that of the instrument. Surprisingly, it's a good thing my brother Yué is in here now since he's far better at hitting feminine pitches than I am. I'll have him sing a verse and you try to match his pitch. He's definitely no Christina Daae, but he'll do. While you might not get it the first time, practice will help train your vocal chords to where they're stronger and more capable of hitting the correct notes. Now, when I move my hand up like so, that means your pitch needs to rise. When I lower my hand like so, your pitch needs to lower. If it remains in the middle, or in front of my chest, like so, you'll be using a neutral pitch. Yué, would you mind demonstrating?" Eric responded while quickly shaking off the blush. As he spoke of hand motions, he lightly moved his hand to their positions as if he'd done it a million times before. Yué wasn't too thrilled about the whole idea of singing in front of the girl, but he nodded and stood beside the girl as straight as she was standing.
"Sure, sure. Girl, you better pick up things quickly. You started him up in that music passion of his and now he's not going to let you quit much less let me just sit on the sidelines listening to his training methods. You unleashed the friggin' musical kracken," the silvery-white haired phantom sighed before motioning Eric to continue. The elder male nodded slightly as he stood up in front of his younger brother. Letting Yué take in a breath, he made a slight gesture that signalled Yué to sing in which he did as instructed, his voice coming out in a smooth tone that almost made him sound like a female singing. As Yué sang, Eric's hands shifted ever so slightly between the three positions as if his hands were made of water. "In sleep he sang to me. In dreams he came. That voice which calls to me and speaks my name. And do I dream again for now I find, the phantom of the opera is there, inside my mind~."
"The first verse, as Yué has just demonstrated, has a mix of all three positions. The final verse will be training for how long you can hold a note and how high of a note you can hit. Christine was able to hold a note for some time, pause briefly to inhale then jump to a slightly higher note. With your ability and enough training, you could possibly surpass her singing ability. Would you like to try singing the first verse solo or with Yué so as to have the slight tutorial in matching pitches? You'll still have to try it solo though."

You're a wise young lady unlike most of the present day's society," the dark haired Eric smiled in an amused manner as he gave a slight nod. In the corner of his eye he could see Yué readjusting a deep blue mask with intricate silver details over the opposite side of his face than the simple white mask Eric wore over the right side of his face. They'd spent most of their life wearing it so it was mostly just subconscious reactions to the mask moving ever so slightly nowadays. As Yué took up his seat by his piano, he started lightly playing a somewhat sad tune to himself which just got a soft sigh from Eric. It was obvious he'd heard his younger brother play such a tune a hundred times before and something about it was growing irritating.
"Yué, do you mind? I'm in the middle of doing something," the elder male quipped only to get the younger male to stop his fingers and a slight motion to continue. Nodding slightly, Eric raised a hand and breathed in as Ophelia did only to do the same starting motion of his hand as he'd done to the silvery-white haired male.

Ophelia IncendiaTheme songDon't give up, it's just the hurt that you hide Ophelia began singing the moment his hand told her to, her voice ringing clearly in the room. "In sleep he sang to me. In dreams he came. That voice which calls to me and speaks my name. And do I dream again for now I find, the phantom of the opera is there, inside my mind." After finally stopping, the soprano relaxed her shoulders, biting her lip and looking to Eric. Her solo had been fine, but definitely not perfect. At the highest note, she lost her breath, and on that final low one, she wavered, and dipped below the note. But still, it wasn't as bad as the teen thought it was. "I'm...sorry," she said, looking down at the floor. When you're lost inside, I will be there to find you
