 Rose
With a lot on her mind, she dances to her rhythm.... It had been a few days since the incident downtown. What had been a beautiful night of gay romance transformed almost instantly into a bloody battle and a loss of emotions. Rose had lost a few of her senses and left the evening on a cold and somewhat sour note. She felt like everyone was against her and her own naivety saw nothing wrong! She was a girl in love with someone who was now designated as dangerous...
She knew that she would have no chance to explain it if she thought about it on her own so she decided to take her thoughts and frustrations onto a dancefloor of some kind. She had begun writing a song to commemorate her relationship with Axel but eventually that song too had transformed itself into something ugly, something sad. Kalula and Yumi were against her dating a bad boy and eventually even Rose began doubting her safety with him. His brother, a murderer? Himself a self-made ruffian. In her eye's all she saw was Axel, her first boyfriend and the first thing in her life to feel real since she left home. She contemplated going back, seeing her parents and forgetting Janhall... Forgetting exactly why she set out to come here. She wanted to be famous dammit! She wanted to find her real parents...instead she found love...
She had rented a studio to practice at the performing arts center. Now she stands before herself and the wall of mirrors, on a dancefloor that felt dirty to her. She was wearing no makeup and already she was sweating from the workout that so far seemed meaningless. Nothing was worked out in her head and nothing was fitting into place at all! She closed her eyes, and all she could see was Axel, even with her back against the wall...
She stood once more and opened her eye's before walking to her radio and flipping to the track. "Relations", the song she once wrote for love and Axel. She wrote her emotions into it and now it was time to sing...
She rose her arms into the air and closed her eyes, her hair bobbing lightly in her movements before her feet moved to the beat. Technotic beats wrapped their arms around the room as the songstress began her seamless dance. All of her emotions were open onto the floor and each sprinkle of her own sweat was proof that her life was here on this dancefloor.
Kalula wouldn't tell her how to live. ""betsu ni" nante iwanaide-" Yumi wouldn't make her fear the unimaginable! "mune ga harisakesou de-" Eventually her body began moving fast, her own emotions driving her! Jonah would not deter her! "soba ni iru dake de ii-" Axel, would never hurt her, he would never hurt her! This was the reality, dangerous or not, Rose wouldn't let herself be naïve anymore! She would know what to expect and roll with every punch. She will continue dancing, and become famous with Axel at her side. This wasn't puppy love, this was her Relations!
""gomen..." nante iwanaide "mata ne" tte itte watashi no MONO ni aranakute ii soba ni iru dake de ii...
ANO KO ni moshi mo akitara sugu ni yobidashite kowareru kurai ni akishimete kowareru kurai ni... aishite..." The last note was met with Rose, harmonizing with the music, almost crying out with it in a beautiful way. Her own melodious voice sprinkling across the last bit of technotic bliss before her body and the music paused with a final impact.
She opened her eyes, and saw a beautiful girl, alone in a big studio room by herself... She had done her soul searching, now she just had to rest!((Rose's song)) Relations

 Her entire life, Lycia had been an entertainer. Singing had come naturally, and even at three years old she had proven that drumming was encoded in her DNA by banging her spoon against the dinner table in a perfectly repetitive beat. Granted, the same could be said for her twin brother, who had supposedly joined her in their pre-meal band performance all those years ago. It was no wonder that the two grew up to release albums and go on a couple tours; their parents had belonged to one of the most popular bands of all time within the Veiled world. It was practically expected that they reach a certain level of fame.
Yet, in this moment, Lycia was alone in a studio. Her brother had chosen to explore the town for a bit, something she would usually enjoy, but the past couple of weeks had been rather distracting to her free time. So here she was, trying to keep herself busy with some dance practice. It was just seconds after she finished stretching that she heard another voice, probably coming from the room next door, or so she assumed. It was clear that the voice belonged to a woman, an energetic one, definitely. Lycia stood from her mat on the floor, focusing on her own training with this woman's song in the background. After a few minutes, she stumbled, landing hard on the ground. A small shout of frustration escaped her, but she remained rather quiet. It was her own fault, she had incorrectly executed a leap. Still, the right side of her body stung enough that she knew a break was probably for the best. Rolling over to her other side, she let out a deep breath, her eyes on the ceiling as she listened to the song next door wrap up. Despite the fact that the words were hard to understand through the wall, it was clear that whoever was on the other side was talented.
It only took a few more lazy seconds to pass by before Lycia was back up on her feet, curiosity leading her to leave her studio and take the two steps over to this stranger's rented room. Unceremoniously sticking her head into the room, she rose a brow at the small girl inside. She was quite beautiful, in a way that almost seemed beyond human. "Hi! Lycia stated loudly, trying to use her friendliest tone to hide the fact that she was intruding on someone's private space. She continued to speak, stepping fully into the room as she tried to explain what had brought her over in the first place. "That was you singing, right? It was kind of muffled from where I was-" she pointed the adjoining wall, "-but wow, you are good. And jeez, you're beautiful. Have you ever considered performing as, like, a professional?"

Rose
With a lot on her mind, she dances to her rhythm.... Rose simply stood there, her chest rising in rhythm as she did her very best to catch some sort of stray breath. Sweat was her savor in this otherwise warm room and as she stood in her final pose she imagined a crowd of people cheering. She imagined how the lights would dim and she would be ushered off the stage before the encore. She wondered if Axel would be there, if he too would be a spectator waving for her success. Or perhaps he would be backstage, to give ginger kisses to his girlfriend between sets. That's what she wanted, she wanted that...
A sudden opening of the studio door was too silent to calculate but when the female spoke Rose was quick to startle and her body stumbled forward, lumping her against the ground with her bottom feeling the most impact! Her eye's winced lightly but creaked open to see the other female walk in, her red hair lightly dancing around her head to frame her face as she did so. The girl seemed prepared to rain compliments so Rose was quick to smile. She didn't seem too bad, even if she was intruding. Rose stood, lightly pressing the tips of her shoes against the ground to tighten their hold before looking to the other girl.
"Oh really? Thank you! I guess you could say I care about that song so it means a lot that you liked it. Oh~!" Professional? Rose always thought of herself one day being a professional, hell, that was why she was here! "Of course! It's been my dream to become a famous vocalist, maybe even a true idol one day."

A tremendous smile appeared on Lycia's face as she realized just how happy this girl was to talk about her dream. It was a bright sort of feeling, and considering the week the redhead had endured, she wanted to be around someone so naturally bright for awhile. So she continued talking, excitement clear in her voice. "Well I think you can make it to that level! You just need a little like, a little push, you know? Something to get your name out there! Like singing in a show some-" Lycia cut off, the most obvious of ideas coming to her. It was only a split second more before she continued on happily. "-O.M.G. You've just got to sing backup for my brother in our next gig! My bro and I are like teen heartthrobs back in the Capital, even if our manager keeps saying we need to reach a "wider demographic" or whatever. Anyway, our backup vocalist just eloped with her boyfriend, and not that that's not romantic as hell, but it totally left us in a spot for a couple months and you would be a great replacement!" Sure, it was only a temporary position, but it was also a chance to gain more experience. Plus, nobody could ever predict the kind of doors that could open up afterwards. Pulling out her phone, she was halfway through typing out a text message when she realized she had no name to put to this girl, nor had she offered her own. Laughing lightly at the slip, she spoke again, slipping a card out of her purse to hand over. "I'm Lycia, my brother is Linus."

Rose
With a lot on her mind, she dances to her rhythm.... "Oh! I'm Rosalina, but everyone calls me Rose." She was beside herself in excitement. This girl had basically come out of nowhere and offered her the best chance she could have at becoming an idol! It would take a lot more hard work but Rose was finally on her way. As Lycia kept on talking she noted the loss of their last vocalist. Eloping with a boyfriend. Rose couldn't help but think about Axel. She had to see him, she had to let him know how she felt.
What if Axel ever said he wanted to elope? Would she say yes...would she marry him? Oh! Maybe her girlish thoughts were moving way too fast! Either way she was happy. She would finally get to sing for people and maybe, if she got famous she would finally be able to find out what happened to her real parents. This was an inspiration! "Thank you Lycia! I will do my very best for you and your brother!" She bowed quickly, her hair moving along with her tired body in wisps. "Take good care of me!" She said with a rather gentle laugh.

Lycia grinned at the girl as she gave her name. It was so fitting, she couldn't help but comment. "That is literally perf. You are a rose." She was still smiling when she noticed a small blush creep up on Rose's face, although Lycia misinterpreted it as an effect of her compliment, rather than the thoughts about Axel. She didn't mention it, however, her mind already moving on to something else.
"Okay so the gig is at some beach party, here in town. Where whatever you'd like, it's a pretty casual performance." Usually, coordinated costumes where an important part of the twin's acts, but this event had been added to their itinerary at the last minute; and she doubted that a bunch of school kids would care much about what they were wearing. So long as she showed a little skin, it was likely work out. "Don't worry Rosie–is that cool, if I call you that? I think it sounds so cute! It'd sound so nice up on stage–Anyways, we will def take care of you. At least until you can get an agent to do so! Lol!" She followed her words with an actual laugh, slinging one arm around Rose for a sort of half hug. It was clear that she was excited; she hadn't expected to find anything fun to do in this town, but maybe this beach thing would actually be a good use of her energy.

Rose
With a lot on her mind, she dances to her rhythm.... 'Perf?' Rose couldn't have been more confused, it was like Lycia was talking far to fast for her mind to capture. "O-oh!" She came back into the conversation, finally finding her way back. "Of course! I make my own outfits anyway, I'll do my best to look my best." She nodded, feeling the excitement almost as much as Lycia.
Lycia spoke rather quickly and so much about her was very confidant. It was types like this that made Rose feel self conscious. She wasn't exactly a wall flower but she was never one to talk that fast or even be as boisterous. Perhaps something small like this will help her change that. "Thank you! You won't regret it, I might even surprise you." She fell into the slinged hold rather easily and smiled away at Lycia, happy to have a new friend.

Lycia was shocked to hear that Rose made her own outfits, her expression never hiding a single thing to cross her mind. "That's amazing! So you're, like, a fashionista too? Oh em gee~" It seemed so fascinating that this girl could have more than one talent; Lycia had never showed promise in anything besides music. "I'm totally jealous, but it just makes me so much happier that you'll be performing with me! We'll have rehearsal the day before, but this gig is like super short, so don't stress too much. We'll probably just stick to our hit dance songs." She looked at Rose, flashing her a grin as added, "Considering that my motto is 'no regrets,' I think you're right about that."

Rose
With a lot on her mind, she dances to her rhythm.... Again Rose was blown away by Lycia's expressions. It was as if every card the redhead could own was thrown out onto the table immediately. It was refreshing. "Oh alright..." Rose slowly drew herself away from Lycia and walked over to her bag before slipping a piece of paper out and handing it to her. As Lycia spoke and flashed that nice grin Rose couldn't help but smile back just as radiantly.
"Wondrous...I shall do my best. Here's my cell number and home phone number. Tell me when and where and I'll be there." Rose had her bag lightly tucked against her body and with a wave she turned from Lycia. Before she could actually perform on stage for anyone, she would have to meet Axel and put her own cards down on the table... ((Exit to Windrose Apartments.))
