PICO-PICO NORI-CHAN IS HERE!

She's a really great friend and the last member of my band Nittle Grasper! We're really really BIG in Japan and even most of Europe has heard of us and America really loves us but Japan is where we live so that's where we're bestest known! And she's a great person and really talented but she is like married so don't get any funny ideas in your heads!

So be nice to her or I'll get you with a Kumagoro Miracle Beam!

OH! NORIKO! When you're ready, I'll show you around, okay?

[ video ]

[ The dynamic duo are at it again, this time they are sitting on the stage of the High School auditorium. Ryuichi is sitting spread eagle on the edge of the stage, a mic stand between his legs, and Tohma is standing at the key board plugging something into the computer. Ryuichi leans back, sliding his hands down the pole and licks his lips, and Tohma just shakes his head at the display and flips a switch. ]

Are you ready?

I have been waiting forever and ever, Tohma!

Now, Ryuichi. Do not make me put my synth away.

You wouldn't, right?

I would not if you behave.

Okay! I'll be good!

[ Tohma nods, his usual plastic smile not so plastic as it is satisfied and starts playing this not-so-work-safe song. As Ryuichi sings with the song, he also acts it out, but he at least keeps his clothes on in the end. He nods once the music is done, picks up Kumagoro and tosses the pink bunny at the communicator. It falls over, giving everyone a nice view of the ceiling and a pink ear and muffles the murmuring of two voices in the background. After a while, it times out. ]

[ It is late but still the two boys from Nittle Grasper are working on music. The communicator first shows the high plain ceiling of the high school's auditorium and then it swings around, showing the floor and then the cleaned top of the piano and then there was the slightly less clean surface of the stage. The communicator is set down and we see that the person holding it was none other than Ryuichi, who goes to sit at the piano. ]

Okay, I think we're good to go.

[ Tohma is sitting at the piano, his hands in his lap. He shakes his head but he still starts playing. First comes this song, and once he finishes it, he turns to his synthesizer sitting on a nearby table while Ryuichi swings his legs around and straddles the bench. ]

There, it's set.

[ Tohma leaves the snyth and turns back to the piano. When the music starts, both him and Ryuichi start performing this song. When done, they both wave at the communicator. ]

Merry Christmas!

[ooc; Borrowing a couple more songs for the amazing duo's performance. As a special note for those people who didn't know, the guy playing the piano in the second video is Daisuke Asakura who is the real life inspiration for Tohma. So, yeah got to pick stuff that he has worked on for Grasper stuff. Also red= Tohma and blue = Ryu.]

[ voice | English ]

I guess what they say is true. Talent can be found in the weirdest places. Thanks again everyone that came to our little talent search. If anyone is still interested in joining us, please inform myself or Tohma about your interest. We're still on the look out for people who can manage those with more talent than common sense. Because rock and rollers don't always know what's best for them, and managers do! Even if it includes getting the star up at five in the morning using a bazooka smack to the head!

So anyways, if you need a listening to or a showing off, just leave one of us a message, and we'll arrange a face-to-face cuz those work better than over the communicator thing. Also! Newly arrived and still a performer of some kind? Give me a jingle here and I'll get Tohma involved.

Thanks for listening!

[ He repeats it in Japanese before signing off. ]

Tohma is here! He's a nice guy and one my best friends from home. We played in a band together until I went to the States and he started his own company. Be nice to him, okay? Although he still gets up way too early. Evil evil cold feet.

Sorry about the surprise Tetsu! I didn't think it would be that bad.

Tohma! I wrote some songs! Shuichi, did you sing that one we made for Eiri? I wanna hear it!
