[ He was sort of counting on Blue showing up fairly quickly, especially when he stopped responding, so Jim's ready when he comes by. He invites him in, lets him choose where he wants to sit, then sits beside him, PADD in hand and a small speaker set up on a table nearby. ]

You never answered. Do Mu listen to music?
winscenario: (twenty seven.)

[personal profile] winscenario 2022-01-01 01:39 am (UTC)(link)
Oh! Like a guitar?

[ He points to his own acoustic guitar resting near the bed. ]

Yeah, no. You have a lot of types of music on Earth. I do like the kind of music Newt plays and listens to, but I like other stuff too.

[ Jim watches Blue mimic the instrument. At first it reminds him of a harp, but it's the position of the hands that makes him think better of it. ]

Oh, a lyre! I have... no idea how to play those kinds of instruments. I can play a few songs in a guitar, but that's about it. I also had a harmonica as a kid, but I could never figure it out.

[personal profile] winscenario 2022-01-01 01:58 am (UTC)(link)
No? I can play something for you, if you want.

[ There'll be plenty of time afterwards to listen to more music, after all. ]

[ He doesn't mind. In fact, he loves playing for others, so he gets up to fetch the guitar, sitting back down on the bed, turned a little more on his side so he's facing Blue.

He plucks at the strings for a few seconds, thinking of a song, then he smiles as he thinks of something.

It's a soft tune, and Jim's voice is melodic, gentle and sweet to the ear. He doesn't miss a beat, or a note, and he lingers with parts of the lyrics, little bits here and there that make him think of Blue. ]

[ He doesn't mind it that Blue closes his eyes and seems to almost drift away. If anything, he's glad to see him almost melt into the song, into the meaning behind each word and each chord.

He smiles a little once Blue looks at him again, dipping his head slightly. ]


Thank you. [ He says of the part about his voice and the sounds. That much, at least, was all him. ] I like music that carries intention. Meaning. Music that makes me feel.
winscenario: (hundred thirty three.)

[personal profile] winscenario 2022-01-01 06:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, good. Then that means I've conveyed the feelings well.

[ He smiles a little. ] That's true. But there are different types of feeling. Some people like music that's good for dancing. It's more of a physical feeling, I think. Other songs can make you think, others make you feel something deeper. Notes that tug at your heart, bring tears to your eyes.

Every kind of music carries emotion of some kind, if it's done well. It depends on how what you want to feel.

[personal profile] winscenario 2022-01-01 10:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, I don't know how you feel right now, but yes, I hoped I'd make you feel something.

[ Otherwise, why not just pluck at some chords to show Blue how a guitar works? No, he chose that particular song for a reason.

He smiles a little at Blue's observation, arms resting crossed over the guitar. ]
I don't think it depends on where I'm from. Each person is different, in that regard. For some it feels strange not to guard your feelings. I used to be that way too, when I was younger. Makes it harder for others to hurt you.

[ Jim smiles at that, nodding slowly. ] Yes. That's right.

[ Indeed a middle ground is the best way to go about it, as is the best way to go about most anything. Balance and tolerance, like with everything else. ]

It's my pleasure. [ He sets the guitar aside, leaning closer to press a quick kiss to Blue's cheek. ] But I've got more you can listen to, similar stuff. Maybe you'll find other songs you like.

[ He enjoys that a little too much every time. The only reason why Jim doesn't dive straight in for more than just that is because he kind of worries a little that Blue might faint on him again. ]

Oh. You want me to play more for you?

[ He will, gladly so, but he was thinking of just playing music for him to listen to. He'll leave it up for Blue to choose. ]
winscenario: (ninety six.)

[personal profile] winscenario 2022-01-01 11:33 pm (UTC)(link)
No, that's alright! I can play you one more. [ He smiles. ] I know just the song.

[ He picks up the guitar again and sets it up to start playing. A different start this time, quieter and slower, building up steadily once Jim starts singing. ]

Ground Control to Major Tom...

[ Maybe Blue will recognize it from Jim's chosen username on earpiece communications, and maybe paying attention to the song will help him understand why Jim chose it in the first place. ]

[ It's a good guess, on Blue's part. For all the possible meanings of these words he sings, this song is closer to him than the other, the words resonating in him, striking chords in his heart. He's smiling a little as he finishes it, glancing over to where Blue leans against him, setting the guitar away carefully so Blue can rest his head more comfortably against his shoulder.

Slowly, he rests an arm around Blue's back. ]


Maybe one day you can show them. But I'm glad you like it either way.
