...You caught me off guard. [Her uncharitable mutter holds irritation only at herself for blushing to begin with, as she makes a show of examining her keyboard's settings. None of them needed any adjustment, of course.] And if you are truly mooning over a girl, you should not be serenading me, don't you think?

[panspermia]

[As entertaining as it may be, Greg has no intention of embarrassing her. He goes ahead and adjusts his strings, though they're just as fine.]

It's really not like that, Mer. She's more of a muse, not anything... real. [It was a vivid vision, sure, but as convincing as it felt...] I write about what inspires me, is all.

[nibelungvalesti]

[Considering how difficult she is to embarrass, he ought to be taking bows instead of worrying about her feelings!] But inspired somewhat by real people. Why not take the chance? Be more than inspired?

[panspermia]

[ There's plenty of reasons, but "I don't know if they're even real" doesn't sound the most convincing out loud. Moreover, he's getting more curious about her own insistence on the matter. ] When exactly did you get so invested in my love life, huh?

[nibelungvalesti]

Someone has to look out for you.

[And looking out for Greg is important to her, no matter how imperious she manages to sound about it.]

[panspermia]

[ Greg laughs at that. ]

Yeah, guess I should be glad I've got you for that. [ He can admit, he's not the best at it on his own. ]

[nibelungvalesti]

And the rest of us as well. [After all, her own protective desire is nothing extraordinary, is it? Anyone would look after Greg as she does, most especially their bandmates.]

[panspermia]

[ Greg's grin turns softer. ] Yeah. All you guys, I'm glad we... banded together. [ SORRY MERIL HE'S STILL A DORK ]

[nibelungvalesti]

[Meril shoots him a dirty look out of the corner of her eyes. Good work on getting a reaction from her, in any case.]

How everyone respects and admires you is beyond me.
