[Yosuke just about dropped his guitar and the sudden complete 180 to their jam session. And it wasn’t just a mood change, it was to a god damn booty jam that he hadn’t heard in years.
He couldn’t. He can’t even.
He doubled over laughing so hard he was crying and it was only because he finally put the strap over his shoulder that he let go of the guitar, dropping the pick in the process, just to kick his feet as he laughed. Oh man, how long had it been since he just laughed from deep in his belly?]
[At least she got two notes in, Yosuke could barely refrain from breaking a string just from the whiplash. He had to wipe at his eyes too, panting for breath and still chuckling as he struggled to get his aching sides in order.
He set the guitar down for now as he dragged a hand over his eyes.]
[He gave one last swipe at his eyes, looking at his hands briefly and then resting them on the arms of the chair, finally breathing easier.]
I dunno 'bout that, it's mostly just the one song I know. It got real big in America and I just sort of learned about it through osmosis. Didn't really check out the rest of his stuff.
[he sat up straighter and shrugged a little, bouncing his leg.]
I mean, I've been okay. As well as I can be being here, anyway. I dunno what you mean but different, it's only been... oh, right. Uh, I got to go home for like, six months or so. But I don't think I changed that much?
[well okay, this was up close and personal. His face flushed as she gave him a once over. He wasn’t sure about all that, not when your best friend was way broader and more filled out than you and the both of them had nothing on Kanji.
But he refrained from denying any further than that when she let go, simply giving her a shy look. Then, he shook his head.]
Um, no. I think I’ve heard the name before?
[Sounded like a movie, though. And he was pretty sure that’s not what she meant.]
A burlesque show is a lovely performance mingling dance and just a touch of bodily freedom and eroticism.
I wanted to tell you I perform on Friday nights at the Pink Rabbit.
[She reached into a pocket and offered him a business card.]
I'd adore it if you came to see one of my shows. We also have a number of women and some very bold gentlemen performers as well. So there's a little something for everyone~
[ Well. He took the business card, turning it over once in his hands. He wasn't exactly about to say no to what Madhuri was describing, but that didn't leave him any less flustered about it.]
Well, is there a specific time you usually perform? That way I can be sure to catch you?
[ he couldn't help the blush deepening down to his neck and up to his ears, even worse at the suggestion. he was going to die of embarrassment, wasn't he? girls were going to be the death of him, that much he figured. Madhuri, Rise... sigh. ]
W-Well, why don't we uh, we see what happens when I get there, yeah?

Wh-What the-!
Oh my god I-I can’t-! I can’t-!
[He couldn’t breathe and it was the best.]
no subject
I'm sorry! It burned in the back of my brain and I had to!
[She played the bassline of the song for two bars, but couldn't go any further.]
no subject

Oh man... my sides hurts.
[He gave her an appreciative nod.]
That was good, you got me real good.
no subject
[She dismissed her guitar.]
Moreover, I'm utterly thrilled you recognized the tune! Then you, too, know the legend of Ser Mix!

It didn't go too well. Catchy, though.
Well, either way... how've you been? There's something different about you.

[His hair was shorter, but that's about it.]
no subject
[She stood and tread to where he was seated, and lay her hands to cup his cheeks as she gave him a further once over.]
A peaceful six months, save for a bump here or there... you filled in a little, as all men do.
[She grinned and let him go.]
Have you ever been to a burlesque show?
no subject
—!!

Tieflings have fantastic darkvision. I'll look for you in the crowd right before my little show begins. And if you want an encore... well.
