( ACTION | BAY AREA )

[Waking.

It's a very unusual feeling. Seth looks down at his hand and rotates it with a curious glint reflecting in his pale yellow eyes. This is very new. New can be many things and as Seth drops into the pool of water he tries to figure out what sort of new this was. Good new? Usual new? Shocking new? He doesn't think it's bad but the word to describe his current situation escapes him.

With surprising calm he walks towards the video and eyes the pamphlets. He empties the box he'd been given into the pockets of his jacket before playing with the phone. He knows about phones, he's watched the world develop over time, but this is the first time he's gotten to use one.

He likes it.

Seth chooses to stand at the mouth of the bay, playing with his new phone and watching those who walk by. He likes watching. You can learn a lot by watching and he's interested in learning. Anyone walking by will see a man standing just shy of six feet with white hair, a lip ring and overly form attire.]

[Seth flicks on the video when he decides that he's done playing with his new phone. Pale yellow eyes stare at the screen, complimented by messy white hair and a smirk on his lips. The bay is visible behind him but not much more.]

Hey all. [It feels like the best way to address the masses.] Name's Seth and it looks like I'm your new neighbor. One of them anyway.

[His tongue flicks along his bottom lip, making his lip ring glint noticeably.] There are a lot of questions out there. I'm sure I'll learn. Any tips for the new guy would be great. If not, what do you like doing around here? How you holding up? I'm sure some of you are doing better than others.

[He's curious by nature.]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[Seth pours her a glass and then relaxes in his seat.]

You surprised me. How long have you been playing?

[She doesn't look that old but he knows that looks can be deceiving.]

*Sonico nods is thanks when he pours the wine and pulls the glass closer to her. She smiles a little when he says he's surprised*

Hmm, a couple of years or so. I have always been singing but... it's only recently I've had the confidence to be on stage in public.

Why's that? A cute thing like you. I imagine you have a hundred adoring fans all over the worlds.

[It's an easy comment though one that Seth feels is true. While he might embellish, he tries not to lie.]

*Sonico just laughs at that, awkward at the thought and shaking her head to show how strange she found the idea*

Oh, no. It really isn't at all like that.

Modest too.

[He takes a sip of his drink.]

I think you have more fans than you know.

*Sonico smiles shyly as she takes a sip of her own wine. She seems to savour it quite happily*

Oh? You think so?

*She takes another sip*

As long as I can make people happy, that's the important thing.

You're a good entertainer. In it for the right reasons.

[He watches her with a curious eye but also watches the people around her. How they look at her and how they treat her. It's interesting the way she catches peoples gaze and holds it.]

Would you say you were born to be an entertainer?

*Sonico smiles at that comment, pleased that she seems to be coming across the right way. She tilts her head at him and shakes her head slowly, fingering the stem of her glass*

Oh, no. Not at all. It's just...something I ended up doing. My family is musical, but being an entertainer... That's quite frightening!

Why do you say that?

[His pale yellow eyes watch her curiously and as the light catches them it appears as if those soft orbs are glowing softly.]

I just...find it difficult. Being at the centre of attention, everyone watching and really paying attention to me.

*Sonico catches that light in his eyes, then turns to look around the room again, picking up her glass of wine*

It's not the most comfortable thing to do, for me.

Isn't that what you do here?

[He leans forward to refill his glass before relaxing back into his set.]

You're a delightful contradiction Sonico.

*Sonico giggles a little sheepishly in response and takes a sip of her wine*

I suppose. But I do because I love singing, not because of the entertaining centre of attention part.

[Seth takes a sip of the wine enjoying the bitter taste as it rolls over his tongue.]

Why do you love it?

[Was the reason as pure as she seems.]

It just... makes me happy.

*Sonico smiles shyly at how silly her response might seem, and bends her head again as she lifts the glass to her lips, pausing*

There's something about it that just...feels good. It helps me...say things.

*Because, if he hasn't perhaps noticed already, she's not exactly the more forthcoming person in the world. From the way she speaks, to the shy way she is holding herself right then, Sonico sure doesn't have a great deal of self-confidence*

[Her response isn't silly.]

That's a good reason to perform.

[ooc: hand wave pleasant conversation from here and Seth walking her home?]

*Sonico blinks in surprise at that response, sure that it was silly, but she seems pleased*

Oh. Well, I'm glad you think so.

[ooc: Sure! ^^]
