It was nice and calm now in the auditorium, the bands had all left and the silence filled through the room, except for the small echo of the wooden electric guitar that was brought into the show on special circumstances. It's new owner, Jack, had offered to stay back and clean up - as long as the staff was okay with him keeping an amp out so he could test his new singer out, his proficiency with guitars was still a little wavering since he talked to Mai, so every so often he would hit a wrong key, and a soft curse would come from his mouth.
But he couldn't complain much, it was a fun event, even if his health had been questioned a couple times, thanks to the drummer of the group, but he held no ill will. Taking a small breather from strumming, he leaned down to pat one of the stray cats that had come to keep him company, his little perch in the auditorium surrounded by a small army of about 6 cats, just relaxing from the life of the school grounds, relishing in the music that the Nekogami could give them. Even if he kept screwing up.

Lucien was at the back of the auditorium, somewhere between a garbage can and a broken guitar that looked surprisingly familiar to him. His eyes were staring at it for a little, trying to picture just where he had seen it before. Alas, Lucien's head seemed to be suffering from damage for some reason and just couldn't put his finger on it. How frustrating. He couldn't help but rub his head as he looked around carefully as if he was looking for someone. It wasn't so much that he was hiding, but he just didn't want to be found.
He hadn't finished checking if the coast was clear when Lucien heard the sound of something playing in the nearby distance and floated out from behind the garbage can and broken guitar to look for the source of the sound. Then he seen a scene that couldn't help but make Lucien's grin grow huge. Cats! Lots of cats! And of course his guitarist Jack, but cats! He hurried over to the cats his band member Jack.
"Jack," he said. "I like your cats!"
Damn it. That wasn't what Lucien meant to say at all. Well, it was, but he... Lucien wished he could say something a little better for a greeting. He took a good look at Jack's guitar. Yes. He would mention the guitar he got from the competition! Quickly trying to use that to recover, he said, "Can I pet them?"
... Lucien gave up trying to say anything more than, "Greetings Jack."

Between the strums of his guitar, Jack's keen hearing caught the shuffling sound, disregarding it as another feline friend coming to visit him as he lounged around, a few kittens trying to hog his legs and another few cats around his person, all of them taking up the opportunity. When the sound became a familiar voice, Jack's hand fell over the strings, glowing eyes lifting from the comforting guitar, taking in the vision of the wispy ghost, Lucien - his band mate.
Hearing the ghost ramble on, he couldn't stop from chortling loudly, his voice carrying through the empty auditorium's walls, before shaking his head. "It's fine, they're good souls, all of them, I'm sure they wouldn't mind a person like you handling them." He was used to the cats taking the spotlight, and nudging one over, hoping the feline would take the incentative. Lifting his eyes once again, he smirked widely, before strumming the guitar again, this time with the tips of his fingers, lightly.
"It's a good day to you, also, Lucien. Wandering now that the event is done? How's your head?"

Lucien couldn't help but stare between all of the cats and then back to Jack. He wished cats would flock around him! Of course, the more he looked at Jack and between the cats the more he noticed something. Jack was also... very... feline and Lucien had an incredible urge to pet him as well. He was about to go reach his hand towards Jack on reflex when Jack mentioned it would be okay for him to pet the cats, even nudging one of the felines towards Lucien.
Without much thought, he put his hand out to the cat, a silly grin on his face when he felt some fur slip between his fingers. Such a nice kitty! Jack was a nice kitty too, and this seriously caused Lucien to wonder if Jack wouldn't mind being handled by him as well. It would have been an awkward question, an awkward moment to for Jack to add to his list of those awkward male moments if Lucien had of asked something like 'Can I handle you too then?' but luckily Jack was quick to greet Lucien, quickly changing his thoughts to address his own concerns about the conspiracy involving his head.
"Yes," he said. Logically, most people would have gone back to their dorms but for some reason Lucien had decided to remain here and wander about now that the event was done and over with. They had lost the battle, but they had also gained some things. Some better than others like Jack's new guitar and some that would cause severe headaches.
"My head?" He questioned out loud. "Questionable, like our drummer."
Lucien was convinced there was a conspiracy against his head and Daisuke was part of it. Questionable wisp indeed.
