The Day is Withering [Closed]
Who:Rei and Mai
What: An impromptu concert
When: Early April
Where: The Belfrey, a Goth Club
Warnings: Probably PG-13, for language at worst
Rei didn't normally get invited to these sorts of clubs to perform but tonight was different. The new manager, Myra, had practically insisted that she accept the offer to perform and made doubly sure that she was dressed for the occasion in an outfit that didn't suit her one bit. The performer hated that woman, with a fiery passion, but for the moment she was stuck and even though her programming was coming undone arguing would have had zero effect. Once the woman was set, she was set...and so here Rei was, backstage for a mystery duet. She hadn't been told who her fellow performer was, just that she would be doing a violin duet with someone and she was fully expecting someone with no talent just thrown on stage to make her look bad. That seemed like the sort of thing Myra would agree to, after all.
So, imagine her surprise when she stepped out of the prep-room and found herself looking at Mai, of all people. Someone from the rival label, rival band, who played the same instrument...and who she genuinely liked.
"Hello, Mai." This might not be so bad after all. "Are you here to perform as well?"

Mai pulls down her hood with one hand as she grasps her violin and bow in the other, blowing out a breath

"Though, it's more your crowd than mine. And it's not like you're any less popular."
Rei starts peeling off her dress, going over towards her bag and meaning to change.
"I bet there'll be an article about us tomorrow morning."
no subject
She's still not quite gotten over that.
no subject
Changing quickly, she lets out a quiet sigh and adjusts her hair, letting it tumble free.
"Still up for a drink? I know a great place not far off where they do private rooms. We won't be disturbed for as long as we like."
no subject
The longer she was away from it anymore, the better. Sure it meant contact with the rest of her band lessened by at this point she couldn't find it in herself to mourn that too much.
no subject
"I'm pretty sure we can keep ourselves occupied, and I doubt anyone will miss us too much for a night. C'mon, I've got my car."
