While Bent-Tail was singing, Shun glanced over at Mitsu and tilted his head before looking at the book.
"For you?" he asked quietly, though it was a little hard to hear over the speakers. He went on and took the book, thinking this, since he still didn't have many intentions on actually singing. Not to mention with his luck, he'd end up picking the wrong song. This.. song list had a lot of words and numbers smashed together pretty closely.

"Umm..sure?" If singing for her for get him to sing. At least that's what she thought he meant. It was hard to focus when she was trying to listen to Bent sing at the same time. When Shun took the book Mitsu gave Ben her full attention again.
When the song finally came to a close Mitsu clapped rather enthusiastically for her rat friend. "You did so well." She smiled. And it wasn't much longer after that when their food and drinks arrived, Mitsu eyes curiously looking to her 'virgin' wild berry daiquiri.

Nodding slowly to Mitsu, Shun began to carefully rifle through the song book. He wasn't really sure what she would like to sing either, and he really wanted to make sure he didn't mess up the song selection process. So to make things a little quicker, he picked out a page at random and began to decode it. Very. Carefully.
He didn't even glance up when the food had arrived because he was concentrating on reading things as correctly as possible.
Bent-Tail's song had finished up, and the next song was ready to go. It was about then that Shun managed to input the code for 'Mad World'. He knew she knew the song... so hopefully she wouldn't mind his selection there.

Mitsu knew this song, she knew this song well. It was the same song her music box played to her every night. She looked rather expectantly at Shun excited to hear him sing the song she was so familiar with.....but when the music began to play he made no indication like he was going to sing.
There was a look of confusion on her face for a moment as she looked at the assassin not sure what was going on. He had picked the song out why wasn't he...oh. He probably thought she wanted him to pick out the song for her to sing like she had asked earlier.
"O..oh. Sorry." She said rather nervously reaching for the mic. There was a moment of hesitation now since the song had already started. Mitsu had been thrown into this so she really didn't have time to think. Finally she opened her mouth but the sound was so soft at first she couldn't be heard. It wasn't until the chorus finally kicked in again did she sing a little louder. At least enough to be heard. Her voice was rather soft, probably not fitting for anything heavy but for the nature of the tune she was singing it worked.

As the song began, Shun just remained where he was, watching Mitsu as she realized it was her turn to go. Leaning forward briefly, he went and grabbed a slice of pizza to start off with while listening to her. Her voice was soft, as he would have imagined but it worked rather well with the song. Over all it was rather enjoyable to hear her.
Bent-Tail shot the assassin a glance while flipping through the book and picking out a song to toss into the queue. He was grinning a bit so it seemed he had something up his sleeve. Once that was all done, he grabbed some pizza, as well as a drink while listening to Mitsu take her tun as well.

When the song came to a close it looked like there was a slight blush across Mitsu's face. That had been rather embarrassing and she was a little flustered that Shun hadn't been the one to sing. Putting the mic down she grabbed up her drink after putting a piece of pizza on her plate to eat in a minute.
"I..I thought you were going to sing..." Mitsu started taking a moment to sip her fruity drink. It was pretty good though it had a bit of an odd flavor Mitsu was almost familiar with....what was it? "I don't think I sound very good." She didn't have a very powerful voice, at least not in her current demeanor.

Both boys clapped lightly for Mitsu as she finished and the next song was getting ready to load on up. Shun turned towards her with a puzzled look as she mentioned that she thought he was going to be the one singing.
"I thought you did just fine," he said softly before finding a mic being shoved into his hands by Bent-Tail.
"Yeah, ye were great! Now tis Shun's turn," the rat grinned, receiving a glare from the other boy.
"Wait. Wait. I'm not going to si-"
"Song's up n the mic is in yer 'ands. Go fer it! Sides, tis a song ye like."
Twitching at that, he looked towards the screen, not even knowing what was coming up. He had missed the title, but he recognized the intro sequence. It was "Bodies". Grumbling lowly to himself, he just kinda began to say the words.... not really singing yet.

"Aww, please sing, Shun." Mitsu tried to encourage while taking another sip of her drink. The hint of red to her cheeks didn't go away, though it was possible that it was just her nerves. She had never sung in front of others before and she was a little shy about doing it again. It was also strange, she was feeling a little lightheaded but it was possible it was from the same thing.
When the song started Mitsu tilted her head curiously when Shun just started saying the lyrics and not really singing them. It wasn't a song she was familiar with so she didn't know if it was supposed to start off that way or not.

Raising an eyebrow at his friend, Bent-Tail gave the other a bit of a kick to try and encourage him to start actually singing the song rather than speaking it out in a flat tone. The result was a grunt from Shun, along with another glare, before he started to put a few notes into his song.
It still wasn't anything spectacular, but there was a little bit of a melody. Whether it was really singing was questionable, however.
Chuckling to himself, the rat shot a glance at Mitsu with a shrug. Well he tried. Perhaps the assassin would be more cooperative a little later.

The further into the song Mitsu realized Shun wasn't even trying. It was a little daunting to know she had at least got up and tried and Shun wouldn't really consider it. Though with some wordless encouragement from Bent Shun at least put a few notes into the bit making it not as flat.
Almost pouting Mitsu continued to work away at her drink. It was rather good and she was drinking it pretty quickly and hadn't eaten anything yet. Not that it would matter it was non-alcoholic. Or...it was supposed to be. She was nearly to the bottom of the glass when Shun finished his song a slight hiccup escaping her mouth as she pulled back.

"Dun worry. 'e'll loosen up," Bent-Tail said towards Mitsu, seeing her sorta pout. When the song finished up, he tugged at Shun and uttered some words into his ear, "Come now. Jus' do it fer 'er ok? Ye'upsettin' the girl."
The assassin glanced over at her. Mitsu did look a little flustered right now... Letting out a sigh, he slowly nodded before sitting down by her, "Sorry..."
He then went and grabbed a glass for himself to start drinking.
Shaking his head to himself, the rat stepped up to the plate again, this time singing .... 'Ben'. There was something ironic about him singing that.

Mitsu gave a slight nod to Shun when he apologized, finishing off her drink before taking up her piece of pizza. She was feeling a little strange at this point though she really couldn't say it was bad. When Ben started singing again she was really into the music, her fingers drumming the beat lightly against the table.
She was trying to settle on which of the songs she had seen that she should try next. It was a hard choice since she sang so quietly. She didn't think her voice was suited for anything heavy.

Shun was beginning to feel a little odd as well, though he wasn't really sure why. There was a slight tingle in his mind that was steadily increasing. Though, all he was drinking was coke... as far as he was aware. Grabbing onto a book as well, he sort of half-heartedly began thumbing through the pages to look for a song. He didn't even really know where to begin there.
At least Mitsu would be going before him so he had some more time to decipher the damn pages. In the meantime, he kept drinking away to finish the glass while sifting through the songbook.
Before too long, Bent had finished his song, which warranted a light clap from Shun as well.

Mitsu let out another little hiccup, giggling rather randomly afterward. When the song came to an end she clapped for Bent as well though hers was much more enthusiastic. In fact it was a little over zealous.
"That was great, Ben! My turn!" It seemed like her volume had gone up a little as she made her way over to the machine to input the code for the song she had picked. At least she was pretty sure it was the right code. Though, when the music started to play it was something completely different. It was 'Candyman'.
"Oh! I know this one!" She hadn't picked it but she recognized it. Stumbling her way over she picked up the mic Ben had set down, looking more than a little unsteady on her feet. Without too much hesitation she started to sing though her voice seemed quiet a bit more confident...and her actions....were far more than expected as she danced along with the music.

Surprised by the change in Mitsu, Shun looked up and watched her as she sang more boldly. He wasn't too familiar with the song but he found himself somewhat mesmerized by her dancing. Having downed his drink, he couldn't help but stare. Something about it seemed to also spark inspiration into him to actually sing so once he managed to snap out of the mini trance the girl had put into him, he began to rifle through the songbook one more.
Bent-Tail was rather amused by this, but he was glad to see that Mitsu was able to build up her singing confidence. It looked like Shun was getting ready too, so it seemed like the fun was about to really begin.
