RE: ..Darkness..-Full!- Started!

Trisha frowned at how the girl was treating her collection. She wasn't obsessive about how things were ordered, but she had spent a good deal of money collecting her records and CDs, she just wanted them treated decently. "Not really a music junkie," the girl said as she walked over to her desk and took her guitar off of her back. She put it down on its stand in the corner of the room before she sat at her desk chair. "I just use them for inspiration, listen to the sound and try to come up with me own." The girl had completely ignored the comment about her blue room. Trisha actually like the color of her room. It was faded, nice with the reminiscent feel of a good pair of worn jeans. "Won't be listening to them any time soon though."

Joanna had pretty much forgotten about the girl's guitar, not exactly being observant. "Oooohhhhhhhhh so the princess plays? Go on, play me a tune! Not like it takes electricity, eh?" She propped her elbows on her knees and flashed a smile to the girl. "Come ooonnn. It's the least you can do, we need some sort of entertainment, right? This could be like your...musical debut. I won't judge, I'll just listen." Jo raised her eyebrows at the girl in waiting. She wasn't so much asking as she was telling. The girl probably wouldn't notice though, heck, she hardly did.

Trisha found the girl's instance rather unsettling. Of course she played music. Why else would she lug around a large wooden backpack? Trisha frowned a bit and shot a look at her guitar, "I don't know anything too good. All my music is unfinished... Well, there is one song, but I haven't gotten it practiced all the way." Perhaps she should give Joanna the benefit of the doubt. Maybe it was a good thing to have someone new listen to her music. Trisha rolled back in the chair until she could reach her trusted instrument. The girl settled it on her lap, took out the pick from under the strings on the neck, and cleared her throat for a moment. "Like I said, I don't really have it set up all the way."
After a deep breath, Trisha started caressing the strings gently and as passionately as she would a lover. The guitar responded by letting out a soft melody, the sounds reverberating in the room. Trisha found her rhythmic song relaxing and sad at the same time. The girl opened her mouth to sing, out of habit and having forgotten she had an audience. Trisha began to sing of love, one lost on a cold night in winter. How that it was her fault and that she could never make it up. Her playing grew passionate over the course of the song. Her guitar let out it's music confidently and a smile tugged at Trisha's lips. She never felt as good as she did when she was singing her songs. The song ended on a semi-sad note. Her love had moved on, and so did she, but she'd never forget that first love. As soon as the song ended, Trisha looked up, a blush on her cheeks. "Well, there you have it."

Joanna had started zoning out as soon as the guitar started playing. And then the girl started singing, and all she could think was the fact she was actually really good. Jo listened to the whole thing, wondering if their were truth to the girl's lyrics. When she finished, Jo flashed a bright smile. "Trish-A! Look at you go!" The greeting was more than friendly, from what the two had been giving the other, but Joanna sincerely thought the girl was good. "So you wrote that? You gonna take your talent anywhere? Like...school or something? Cause it ain't like you don't got it."

Trisha blushed deeply and gave the other girl an appreciative smile. "Thanks," she said in a quiet voice. She was glad Joanna liked her music. "You're actually the first person I've sung that song too," she said with a weak smile on her face. "I hope to make it someday in a band. I've got one going right now too. They're not all too bad, but they aren't the nicest people in the world." The girl shrugged, "You learn to live with it." A smile spread on her face as she thought of her dream job. "I just want to get out on stage someday in front of a whole crowd of people, sing my heart out and make them feel what I'm feeling. That sort of rush..." The girl shivered as if she could feel it, "I'd give anything to feel that someday." Trisha shook herself from her musing and sent Joanna an apologetic smile, "Sorry, I get carried away when it comes to music."

Joanna had no idea what the girl was talking about. Well, she did, but she just didn't understand the feeling. "Yeah, totally." She said, a little too obvious she didn't have a clue what the girl was talking about. She shrugged. "I've never really felt passionate about anything. Kudos to you for finding it though. I just go with whatever I'm handed. Ya know? If I make it through the night, I've done good." She sat back on the bed, not laying down completely, just propping herself up on her elbows. "'Sides, there really isn't nothin I'm too good at. Guess I wasn't in the line when God was given out talents. I tend to be late for important things like that." The way Jo spoke, it wasn't sad at all like her words were, more of just a casual thing for her to say.

Trisha frowned softly. The girl didn't understand. That was okay, hardly anyone did. She'd yet to meet those hardly anyones, but she was sure they were out there. "Don't give up on yourself yet," Trisha said, "I'm sure there's something your good at. Heck, you may even be an amazing drummer and not even know it." The girl shrugged her shoulders, "Or you could be a snowboarder or something. You never know." With that, Trisha set her guitar back down in it's stand. "My parents don't want my becoming a musician. They want me going to law school. It really freaking sucks because I'm barely managing to keep my grades at a C average as it is." Trisha felt her mouth shut tight. She shouldn't have said that. She'd gotten too comfortable and started letting her life slip out to someone who probably didn't even care.

Joanna had shrugged off her comments about her being good at something. Yeah, she was awesome at picking locks, getting in and out of places, and stealing whatever the heck she wanted too. When the girl started talking about disapproving parents and the fact it was hard for her to keep her grades at a C, Jo couldn't help but laugh. "No crap!" She said as she sat up again. "I thought you were some stuck up girl who always did what daddy wanted her too. And with you going over there to study, I assumed school was all you were focused on." The girl shook her head still laughing. "You're more cool than I thought you were. Congrats for making it past my list of people I can't stand."

Max had grabbed a soda from the fridge and was now collapsed on a couch while Jo and Trisha were off doing gosh-knows-what. Max was actually planning. They couldn't stay here forever. It was becoming dangerous. They had to get out of there before selfish freaks started breaking into houses. He took a deep breath and let it out. Maybe they could get out of town and hit the country, where there were less people. Just as he had that thought, Max heard the music coming from down the hall. It had to be live-there was no radio without electricity. Then a voice accompanied the guitar. It was Trisha's voice. The boy stood and crept down the hall, listening to the music intently until it was over. He'd been enraptured by it. It was amazing. As the song finished and he heard Joanna and Trisha talking, he made his presence known and stepped into the doorway of the room, momentarily caught off-guard by all of the blue. "You're really good at that," he said to Trisha, grinning.
