[ JOHN I AM PRETTY SURE HE USED MALIK'S NAME SOMEWHERE IN HERE? ]

I like when you let me listen to it first. It feels like...being best friends. [ he rolls his eyes, and finally has some of the hot chocolate. ] That sounds lame. But it feels like somethin' for us.

[He used it once in the long-ass rambling text ok let him live.]

No, I get it. [Thank god Dave starts drinking at least.] It's more personal that way like...you opposed to friendship bracelets once and I thought that was weird at the time but I definitely get it now. But it's like that? Symbolism or something since I know nobody is going to actually get the music the same way you do.

[What if he just shuts up and eats his burger?] Privilege and stuff. You have been kind of a weird inspiration to my stuff lately.

Careful, I'll swoon. [ dryly. ] Speaking of music, though. Do you want to do something together with me?

You could probably pull off southern belle if you really tried. [He nods though.] What kind of something? I mean yes, duh, but that sounds like you have something in mind already.

Mm. This friday, Yosuke's throwin' some music jam thing. There will apparently be pizza. I thought you might want to go?

Sure. Could be fun. [He's trying to think if he's met Yosuke and he hasn't looked at the network so no he knows nothing.] I could use the time to freestyle a little anyway and it's nice to hang out with other people, you know?

[A pause.] Elliot texted me the other day, too. Asked if I wanted to play for someone's wedding.

That could be fun for you. [ confused, and with a shrug. he's never done weddings so much as bars and clubs, um. ]

But about the thing. There will be performances? If you wanted to do one together?

It's relevant to you, too, dude. He might need a DJ. [But that's all on Elliot and he'll let Elliot make that call later since there's the whole Rean thing, too.]

...that's something we never quite managed to pull off in that life either, did we?

You can send him my stuff if you want. [ whoever "him" is; john has dave's music and mixes and shit, and he can send him examples of dj tracklists if need be. ]

I'm not sayin' we like, do an original thing in...four days. But we could play a duet or something for a song we know? If you want.

I don't think I need to, I think Elliot knows what your stuff sounds like maybe probably. It's not for a while, whatever. [But ANYWAY.]

That is definitely a thing we could do though, yeah. Both on piano then?

It's what you're best at and what I can follow along with.

Then yeah. That sounds cool. [He's pretty much back in his comfort zone seeing how he's eating his dinner and leaning back against Dave's legs and eyeballing the glow in the dark stars on their ceiling.] We can probably agree on a song in four days. Or I can teach you something.

Teach me somethin' like what? I figure we may as well do one of the ones we've played with already. [ john he's like crosslegged here how much in his lap is john... ]

[I like that you don't tell me these things and then they end up being even more gay than they started. So! I guess John's half-sprawled in Dave's lap and careful not to squish their kitten. Cool.]

One of the remixes stripped down? We have a couple of things we can use.

[ I THOUGHT I DID BUT I GUESS I DIDN'T. when he sits on the bed with cat it is usually cross legged now u know ]

Clarify on whether you mean the shit we've sent back and forth that ain't original or that is.

How easy could you follow along with the original stuff that I've already sent you? Because unless you are implying we duet a Carly Rae Jepsen song I'm not sure what you'd like to do.

Easily. [ but hm. he thinks about it for a second. ] We've sent back and forth stuff besides that, you know. Owl City might be less ridiculous.

[He's also fishing some fries out of the bag and offering them to Dave since they're there.] Yeah I know. That was just the first I thought of. I think I've sent you a few Owl City songs haven't I?

I'd want more time to work on a duet for original stuff. [ explaining, since like, he'd like to...spend time on that. ] But yeah, you did. You can pick whatever from their playlist, I don't actually mind anythin' they have.

[ ...he will take one fry. ]

[Cool. One fry and some hot chocolate. At least it's something. Still, he's also wriggling his phone out of his pocket to pull up a playlist, flicking through it.]

...there is a song I really like that I think you could probably pick up easily? It's not one I sent you but I've been playing around with it myself.

Ok, share.

[ he will take a second fry? there, we're cooking with fire now??? ]

[What if he just holds the container/bag of fries here and lets Dave take them as he feels like, will that work? Lord. But he grins and he doesn't say anything while he selects a song to play on the speakers through his phone.]

[ "yo what the fuck" is a thought that definitely comes up, but dave just laughs, because that's kind of what he does when he has no idea what else to do. ]

Sure, why not? I'll even provide the vocals if you want.

[Look. It doesn't hurt that John actually liked the song prior to.../gestures. But he settles for a grin as he lets the song finish and it rolls into a different one. Apparently John just has a playlist for this shit.]

Yeah? I haven't really heard you sing much besides the once.

This one. [ dave smirks, then shrugs. ] And that would be because I do not frequently sing for people.
