you know, in all the excitement and thrills, i've forgotten that in five days i'm going to be 26 years old. the only reason why i remember now is that my sister called to remind me about the family thing at some sort of center and that i have to wear a real suit since Mother expects me to preform a couple pieces. it's nonsense but that means i have only a couple days to arrange a weekend bash next weekend.

that would be the sixth and seventh. i usually rent a floor and have drinks and food for everyone and games and stuff, but maybe i'll hold off and just invite those in the club over to my place.

you know, cuz of everything going on. i don't think the norms can see the changes but you never know and it would be better just to let people have a good time without worrying about people not in the club freaking out.

idek what i'll do, but just tossing this out there since everyone's been off since the sage stuff. we might be a bunch of suckers that stand between earth and crazy alien forces that call themselves gardeners, but that doesn't mean we can't have fun, right?

[fatherssins]

Any brands you like?

[ursoreckless]

whatever fits.

[fatherssins]

Oh dear, I'm not good at this sort of thing.

Okay, I'll try to get you something you'd like.

[ursoreckless]

i get a lot of stuff from a lot of people, some of them might actually be friends. usually half of it i give to other people or it ends up in storage. the stuff i really keep is stuff from the heart.

so surprise me, and don't worry about it.

[fatherssins]

Surprise you? Hm, okay :)

[ursoreckless]

i'll be waiting.

god so late | iMessage maybe?

[depolarized]

What're you playing?

that's okay :3 | iMessage

[ursoreckless]

Knowing Mother? Something complicated, pretty and made for two pianists. I'm just hoping it's nothing by Bach. I haven't touched an organ in years.

"Organ"....

[depolarized]

She lined up the partner, too, or are you growing another pair?

......... okay then!

[ursoreckless]

We play together, her and I.

It's okay, Shou. No judging.

[depolarized]

That's... sweet. [Unexpectedly so.]

Mother had wanted me to follow her footsteps when it turned out I had some talent. I guess I still like playing for her even if I never did go into music.

Shh, shh, *pets* This is a perfectly natural part of life.

[depolarized]

My tutors tried, but I'm not exactly musical.

[Some pause because parents and neglect are something of an issue for him. He types for a bit, then deletes it.]

but but but he calls it a MAGNUM

[ursoreckless]

Mine quit after that one trick with shoe polish and dog crap.

[Yup, he was a brat.]

I take it they never bothered to try teaching you themselves?

Re: but but but he calls it a MAGNUM

[depolarized]

[Can't hear it but he laughs at that. Total brat. Riku was such a good little boy.] Where'd you find the dog crap?

[And a pause again, then:] No. I didn't really see them much.

[ursoreckless]

The neighbor's yard.

[it was worth the lecture that followed. the tutor was just a meanie!]

Some parents. [sighs softly. he has cousins who grew up like that.] Mother use to sit me on her lap and show me how to play before she hired a tutor to teach me.

[depolarized]

Creative. [He approves.]

It's why I moved out.

Is she a pianist?

[ursoreckless]

Eh, I was bored.

I only moved after the lectures about school got a bit much.

She is. She's famous for it.
