The search for a song (C'bana)

[Janalee]

The mare laughs, before finally plopping down next to Pandamonium. "That's probably the best answer you could give to that question, actually; I wish you luck in finding her. But the bigger question now is, is he her type?" She glances over at the other pair as she says it, trying to puzzle it out herself.
At Fane'lalii's answer, Mwrey'du'Simba looks askance at her, even more intrigued; it had reminded him of the desert and its moods, though he probably should have expected it from an artist too. He was tempted to ask if she had spent any time there, but after a moment's pause, he asks instead, almost seeming to change the subject, "Do you know the song 'Nomvula'? Sondela, mhlobo wam...Nali ibali elide; apho kwaqala khona inkathazo..." While his voice certainly wasn't that of a musician, there was still something a bit eerie and secretive in it in the growing dusk.
As the sound trails off, Lwasana'Cayimaii perks up an ear in curiosity, wondering why on earth he had started singing that song, but unable to stop grinning about it anyway.


(Yes, Mwrey'du'Simba refused to sing a song in English, possibly just to try and annoy me. *grins* Since I love that song though, he clearly failed in that regard. And just in case you want to listen to it...

[edit: The link I first gave won't play by just clicking on it, but the quality of the sound on the youtube one annoys me...so feel free to type in 'nomvula imeem' on google and click the first link to listen to a better version if it annoys you too. ^_^]
And I'd certainly be up for a siblings-and-anyone-else-they-can-drag-in roleplay. XP Did you have any ideas for how to find a home for the last one? I'm fine with just about anything, though I warn you I'm a horrible judge...which is no doubt already reflected in my difficulty in deciding on a foal. ^^)

[Stormelle]

Pandamonium smiled, "One can never be sure. But I'd dare say he may have her." he voice was quite and almost rythmic as he said this, he was happy for his friend though he would have to dash a few ideas other's had given him. He chuckled inwardly because he'd never really considered them till this very moment.
Fana'lalii blinked, slightly taken aback, she'd not expected this. No-not at all, but it was plesant to simply listen. She closed her eyes and her ears perked up, listening.

(Hrm...The link doesn't like me. Who's it by/the name of the song? *attempt to find it herself and is now enjoying Bellefire* I think I have a new band I like...xD
Hehe. Yes! I want so badly to RP Esparanza and Lement. <3 And perhapse we can drag in SB and Lunasa....x3.
Perhapse, once our RP is done...Or close, we could come up with a number of questions in relation to the RP. For example:
What flower did Mwrey'du'Simba give to Fana'lalii?
But I dunno...You?)

[Janalee]

Lwasana'Cayimaii tilts her head towards Pandamonium, more because of the tone of his voice than his actual comment. She appraises him thoughtfully, wondering how he really felt about all this; he seemed a decent fellow, and she hoped he wasn't hurt. Mwrey'du'Simba had been so adorable as he told her of the lovely music and the harpist behind it though, she couldn't really feel badly about the turn of events. After a moment's more thought, she returns to her bantering tone, and laughing softly, replies, "Well, if she can put up with his singing, they may just be destined."
In the silence that follows the fragment of song, Mwrey'du'Simba moves to look at Fana'lalii fully; he was surprised to see her listening so intently, he had only meant it to describe the song. He coughs softly, more embarrassed than he had felt in quite a few years, and explains a bit timidly, "There's power and beauty in the variety of the world, certainly."


(Sorry about that; the song is "Nomvula (After The Rain)" by Freshlyground. ^^ And yay for new music! I may have to listen to them sometime...I've been on a Heather Dale kick myself lately though. *smiles, and goes back to listening*
Ooh, and a quiz might be interesting...though I hate to force people to read anything I've written. XP Maybe a naming contest, if we can't decide on anything ourselves?)

[Stormelle]

Pandamonium chuckled, "Alas, I'll not dare grace" he said the word with sarcasum "you with my singing. It's quite horrid."
Fana'lalii started slightly as he spoke now but easily opened her eyes and meet his gaze. "Very true, even the simplest of things can capture attention...And in all reality perhapse that which is simple deserves all the more attention..." she said the words as though they where something they believed, and they probably where, for with her words where not just simple banter. Thus her reason for enjoying a simple song so openly.

(S'ok! ^^ And I'll go look that up. Deffinetly...The Flame(s)((not sure if there's an s at the end)) is the only song of their's that I've listened to but I like that one... Heather Dale? ^^; Hrm...I'm not sure if I know her, then again I don't know a lot of band/group/singer names...Or songs...By title...
I think it's fine. x3 Infact I like your RPing quite a lot. But if you don't like that a naming contest would always be fun.)

[Janalee]

Lwasana'Cayimaii clicks her tongue in chastisement, though her grin clearly belied her tone. "And here I was waiting for that very thing; I suppose I'll just have to envy Fane'lalii then, unless I can force a song out of you..." She trails off for a moment, before a mischievous gleam flickers in her eyes. "You're not ticklish, by chance?"
Mwrey'du'Simba continued looking at Fane'lalii while nodding his assent to her statements, or more likely to her very seriousness; there was something deeply compelling about her earnestness, especially when it was really only their first conversation. "Indeed. Though, I wonder if simple things are really so simple, after all."


(I really don't know much about music myself, either; that's probably why I get so excited when I actually find something new that I like, and end up driving everyone crazy with how often I listen to it... ^^
And thanks. *smiles and blushes sheepishly* I'm glad you like it, since you're the one having to read it after all. ^_^ For a quiz, would you want the winner to be the first person who answers them all correctly, or a draw, where each person gets a number of tickets equally to the number of questions they got right? Well, or something else, those were just the only two I could come up with right now. *grins* And how many questions were you thinking of?)

[Stormelle]

"Alas, singing is her forte." he grinned as he nodded toward Fana'lalii, for as she'd earlier shown she was very musical in both instruments and voice. Pandamonium raised an eyebrow, of sorts, slowly, "Perhapse. But tis for you to find out."
"Simplicty is perhapse the thing that hides what is truly sopishtocated...Or complicated. Those who speak little often mean much in what they do say." she wasn't sure entirely where this was going, perhapse they would simply continue to agree upon this fact, but either way it was true conversation.

(Isn't it happy? I know enough about music...Musical-ish-ness wise...But that's probably it...>.<;
Hrm...Not sure how many questions but I guess I was thinking first off, if only one person got them all right then they could be the automatic winner, they'd be sending their answers to you, Pega, or myself((all if nessicary)) or we could do where they get a ticket for each one they answer correctly...That would be fun. ^^)

[Janalee]

"Hmm..." Lwasana'Cayimaii hums in contemplation, before laughing spontaneously. "I may have to save that for at least our second meeting, Mister Pandamonium."
In truth, Mwrey'du'Simba hadn't any idea where the conversation was going either; it had been a long time since he'd had one with someone he didn't know, and he was surprised to be enjoying it so much. He simply smiles at her last comment though; it somehow seemed more appropriate not to say anything at all.
The sky was just starting to turn a vibrant rose color; soon enough, night would fall, and the moon that could be seen overhead would be the only light. It promised to be a glorious sunset before that time though, and beautiful as it was amongst the trees, Mwrey'du'Simba couldn't help but wish that they had a view of the horizon too. With a glance at all the lovely scenery around them, and back to the mare who was even lovelier in the red light, he asks, "Would you care to go for a walk?"


(If only one person got all the questions correct, I'd certainly be fine with giving the foal to them. ^^ I was just thinking that you might get more than one in that category, but you never know; it's just always good to have a backup plan.
Hm, and now that I'm wondering if 'how many times has Janalee admitted she doesn't know what she's doing?' should be a question... *grins*)

[Stormelle]

"Which is fine...Perhapse it'll be on the morrow...Or do you think we, all four, can find a place to rest...Night is approaching." he smiled at the sunset as it crept into place. Pandamonium stretched idly, not truly intending to get up but watching the other two intently.
Fana'lalii smiled, "Yes." she said simply, observing the sunset even as she replied, this promised for something just as pretty as this sunset.

(Okies. ^^ We might, we might not...If we do, then we'll put those peoples' names in a hat. If no one gets all the questions then we could have a ticket for each one the got right or someit...
*chuckles* And "How many times does Stormelle apollogize for something?")

[Janalee]

Lwasana'Cayimaii nods once and replies, "A place to stay the night might be good...though, honestly, you look fairly comfortable where you are too." She grins, before the sound of Mwrey'du'Simba standing up catches her attention. Tilting her head towards the pair, she adds in an amused tone, "And apparently the lovebirds have a different idea."
The stallion smiled more openly than was usual for him at Fane'lalii's answer; it would be good to have someone with him for once. For a moment, he considers asking her where they should go; finding that the answer really didn't matter to him though, he maintains his silence, and waits patiently for her to take her first step.


(*snickers* This will be an amazing quiz, I can tell already. XD Now to see if we can find a way to actually finish this rp...)

[Stormelle]

"Hrm..Perhapse I'll just close my eyes then." Pandamonium said, stiffling a yawn very slightly. He snickered slightly at her calling them lovebirds, for some reason though he didn't mind it the idea or perhapse the word, amused him.
"Where should we go?" she askes looking around the part of the clearing in front of him, hearing the slight snicker of Pandamonium but not minding it as she smiled again at Mwrey'du'Simba.

(*grins* Heck yes! True...Hrm...We could also ask something random...Like..."Why was Stormelle slow in one of her replies on page four...?" <.<....>.>....As I said in the other thread Peter Pan...Wow...Tonight was amazing...We did our opening performance...Though I was disappointed a bit with the audience and a few other things I enjoyed myself. x3)

[Janalee]

The mare grins at Pandamonium's snickering, rather enjoying the idea herself. After a moment though, she says, "As pleasant as just closing our eyes here sounds, it would mean we can't try to secretly follow them and eavesdrop..." She sighs with mock-heaviness at the decision, though it's clear from the smile that won't leave her face that she had no true intention of carrying out her thought.
Mwrey'du'Simba can't help but chuckle ever so softly as she asks the very question he had been debating not so long ago. With a tender and amused look in his eyes, he replies, "Where'er you wish; I do not know these woods myself."


(Random is always fun. *grins, and tries to think of some more interesting questions*
And I'm glad you had such a good time at your opening performance; I hope all the rest go as well or even better! ^_^)

[Stormelle]

Pandanonium grinned and peaked out of the corner of his eye toward the two, "It's true...But all the same..." he yawned again and putting his paws infront of him he rested his head calmly on his front paws.
"Hrm..." Fana'lalii hesitated and moment before moving her front right paw foward, "Come, let's explore then." she smiled and then, with a sudden burst of energy, bounded forward toward the trees.

(True, true. ^.^ More randomness...But Pega is being like...Half asleep...Crazy, making songs up words in relation to a pencil box and your soul being trapped in it...She's funny...*toses a random pillow at her*
Will do!)

[Janalee]

Lwasana'Cayimaii snickers, both at the pair's leaving and at Pandanonium's reaction to it. "Well, I can see how exciting my night it going to be." She huffs to herself, shaking her head in amusement as she stretches into a more comfortable position.
The stallion remains still for the briefest moment, transfixed by the image of Fane'lalii bounding through the forest; for some reason, he couldn't help but think of the stories of dryads he had heard told before. As she reaches the edge of the clearing though, he laughs to, or perhaps at, himself, and finally lopes fluidly after her, too intrigued to see where they were heading to remember to wish a farewell to the other two, or even look back.


(*laughs* I wish I would make up songs when I'm nearly asleep; alas, I'm even more boring in that state than when awake. ^^ Though, maybe not thinking I'm trapped in a pencil box isn't a bad thing...)

[Stormelle]

"Aye, full of a half asleep gaint panda." he grinned and closed one of his eyes lazily.
Fane'lalii moved as swiftly as she could, she'd had a sudden burst of energy and wanted to make the best use of it as was possible, she glanced back, smiling as she did so before ducking down into a bush beginning to creap her way through it. As she broke through the undergrowth the tall grass of a meadow tickled her belly as she bounded to the middle before gasping and halting as swiftly as she could, eyes upon the horizon.

(*giggle* Welcome to the life of teh crazy sistas. x3 I any case, I'm really tired so I hope this reply makes sence and that you like it. )

[Janalee]

Laughing, Lwasana'Cayimaii replies, "And who could want more than that?" She grins for a moment more, before turning on to her back to get a better view of the changing sky.
Mwrey'du'Simba follows steadily after Fane'lalii, careful not to lose her through the trees, even though he was more amused by her energy than energetic himself. As she crawls under the bushes, he smirks and shakes his head before continuing after, only coming to a stop once she had. Drawing up to the mare, he too gazes at the sunset, just past its brightest colors now, but still vibrant. Words seemed inadequate to describe the view, let alone everything else, so he simply hummed appreciatively and contentedly while watching; "Hmm..."


(Sounds like a good life. ^^ And I honestly could make the same 'tried-and-only-hopefully-coherent' statement for myself, so I think you're fine. *smiles*)
