54... between the sun & stars

[ And here is the wild Ryuichi in his natural habitat of colored upon paper, crayons (half worn down to mere stubs), an old tub of glue and bits and pieces of colored old fabric. With delicate care - complete with his tongue sticking out of the side as his mouth - he finished gluing a piece of fabric on what looked like a keyboard. It now has been transformed into a riot of colors thanks to the careful application of colored paper and fabrics.

Grinning, Ryuichi sits back and wipes his face with the corner of his shirt before holding up his creation to the camera. ]

Noriko! I made it shiny! Do you like?

[ No, not even this can bring him out of text mode. ]

What did you do?

[singsingbluesilver]

I just put some bits of paper and fabric on the frame and keys.

[ He doesn't want to upset Ryuichi, so: ]

Where did you get colored paper?

[ text ]

[singsingbluesilver]

[ Too late Tohma. Ryuichi has been upset for a long while. ]

I had some in my scrapbook.

I think you did a nice job at making it look pretty.

[singsingbluesilver]

But no one is happy about it...

[blameshimself.livejournal.com]

We're not mad. We're just shocked.

[ text ]

[singsingbluesilver]

Don't. I know you are mad.

[ text ]

[blameshimself.livejournal.com]

But it still works, right?

[ And here's a squawk of feed-back as he turns it on, a random string of notes, and then he is tapping out London Bridge without any problems. ]

It sounds fine.

[blameshimself.livejournal.com]

Then there's nothing to worry about.

[singsingbluesilver]

But you're still mad.

[ text ]

[blameshimself.livejournal.com]

I'm not mad, Ryuichi.

[ After all, it's not his keyboard. ]

I promise.

[singsingbluesilver]

If you say so...

And besides, I think Kumagoro-san likes it.

[ text ]

[singsingbluesilver]

Of course he does! It was his idea!

[ text ]

[blameshimself.livejournal.com]

[ What. Will have to have some words with Kumagoro, then. ]

It was?

[ text ]

[singsingbluesilver]

Yup! He likes making things all shiny and colorful!

[ text ]

[blameshimself.livejournal.com]

Well, you definitely made her synthesizer very, very shiny and colorful.

[ text ]

[singsingbluesilver]

So is she gonna kill me about it?

[ text ]

[blameshimself.livejournal.com]

No, I don't think she'll kill you.

[ ...As for me.... ]

[ text ]

[singsingbluesilver]

I guess I should clean most of this off before she gets mad and strangle Kumagoro and you.

[ text ]

[blameshimself.livejournal.com]

She'll get over it, Ryuichi. Eventually. I think the apartment really needed something bright and cheerful like that.

Are you kidding? Don't you remember how many years it took before she forgave me for putting sequins on her one leather mini-skirt?
