Arianna's Room

I see.
*unconsciously stares at lips*
*looks at feet*

*tries to get up*

*stumbles a little bit*

Crap, I hate falling over. You'd think I'd get used to it, but I still haven't. T-T

*sways*

*steadies*
*chuckles*
Maybe you should sit.
That way you can't hurt anyone.

*glares at Angelo*

Hey, it's not my fault. I'm a weak HUMAN, remember?

*sits down anyway*

While you're in here, why don't you look around? I arranged it myself, and I'm quite proud.

*stands*
*raises an eyebrow*
*walks over to bookshelves*
Humans are anything but weak, Arianna.
*pulls out a dictionary and looks through it*

*limps over to bookshelf*

Yeah. Whatever you say.

*pulls off copy of The Fellowship of the Ring*

Do you like music?

*thumbs through book*

*distractedly*
Not particularly, no.
*turns page*

*continues thumbing through book*

I don't understand how you can't like music. It's wonderful. And besides, it's not as if you're one of those superbly old vampires. You must've liked music at one point in time!

*shrugs*
Not much.
My uncle used to force Classical on me, but I never really enjoyed it.

*is dumbfounded*

You mean you never even TRIED another kind of music? O.O

*looks up from dictionary*
I didn't say that.
Music simply doesn't interest me.

*snaps book shut*

How can you not be interested in music?!

*doesn't understand*

*brow furrows*
The same way you aren't interested in football or any other sport.

*narrows eyes*

I'm interested in PLAYING sports, not watching others do it while I sit on a couch and scream at something I can't control. And music isn't one of those things. It's emotion put into sound. It is a wordless explanation that transcends all language.

...I don't see how you can't be interested in that.

*sighs*
*leans against bookshelves*
Maybe I'm just not interested in emotion, then.
Is that a better answer for you, Miss Catania?
Because, frankly, it makes me sound rather dull.
*looks down at Arianna*

*looks up at Angelo boldly*
Perhaps you're just a dull person, then.
But I intend on making you a little more interesting.

*leans towards Angelo, almost an inch away*

*reaches towards Angelo's hip*

*grabs CD from bookshelf*

*turns and walks a few paces*

AHA! I've found it. You cannot deny the wonderful-ness of THIS!

*blinks*
*stammers*
O-of w-what?

*smiles coyly*

Elton John, of course! This little gay man is AMAZING!

*pops CD in stereo*

Now, what type of music do you believe you'd prefer?

*raises an eyebrow*
*dryly*
Elton John.
You want me to listen to Elton John?

*raises eyebrow*

Have you ever actually LISTENED to Elton John before, Angelo?

*mumbles*
On occasion.
Not really.
Fine, no.
*childishly*
But Stefan listens to him, and you've SEEN how Stefan turned out.

*laughs*

Angelo, dear, there IS a difference--and a large one at that--between LISTENING to a little gay man and BECOMING a little gay man.

Now. Would you prefer something up-tempo?

*rolls eyes*
Whatever you prefer.
*leans against bookshelf again*
*puts arms behind head and closes eyes*

*slaps Angelo's arm*

Now stop that. You're acting like a child! I'm only trying to expose you to more culturally diverse things!

*turns to stereo*

*turns on Bennie and the Jets*

*starts humming along, looking at Angelo expectantly*

*laughs*
*opens eyes*
I've heard this before.
