Restoration 002 | Video | Joint Recording with Ginia
[The feed starts with Evan crouched in front of the journal, face taking up much of the image. He makes a-ha before moving back a bit. Beyond his torso the image is a slightly crooked view of what looks some sort of concert hall. Before too many details can be seen Evan tsks and blocks the view again, fiddling with the journal. Finally satisfied he backs up, checks that the journal is straight, and beams before turning and walking coat tails swishing, left sleeve pinned to his shoulder.
Now everyone watching can see that it IS some sort of concert hall, and look there’s Ginia seated at a grand Piano that Evan walks towards. He waves at Ginia before reaching off screen and bringing in a fedora with a big feather sticking out. Not allowing her to argue he plops it down on her head, before moving around the body of the piano. He leans against it, grinning mischievously at Ginia who gives him the flattest stare even as her lips twitch into the flash of a grin. Evan winks before straightening up and facing the journal. He clears his throat as Ginia spreads her fingers over the piano keys, both of them still for a timeless moment before Evan starts to sing and Ginia enters on the piano for the first song.
As with any good Queen Classic, Evan rocks out to the song with a multitude of hand flourishes and hips swaying to the tune, grinning as much as he can without interfering with his singing. As the song ends he trails off to inaudibility, pulling his legs and arm in close as Ginia shifts key with a little flourish before setting off into the second song.
Evan looks up as he starts to sing, before going big, gesticulating widely and playing out all the parts as they came up. Hamming it up all the way, dancing along with the music. Anyone who knows the Time Warp will recognize those moves. He even puts on voices to do the different parts as it goes along. At the right time Evan busts out improvised tap dancing, before throwing himself back into the music.
When that finishes, Evans grins widely at the camera as his breathing slows.]
Greetings Lucetians!
Most of you don’t know me yet, I am recently arrived Evan Brown. I hope to change all and my good friend Ginia - wave to all the nice people Ginia thank you - has given me a chance! Well, a bit of chance. Turns out this idea had been stewing awhile, but I have no qualms taking advantage of it at all.
So, my good citizens, we have made this delightfully musical broadcast to invite all of you, yes all of you to a day at the movies.
This Saturday, all of Saturday, we will be screening movies at the Rec center! My good friend Ginia has quite the selection on her laptop, and we already have a few lined up. We will also be raiding the rec centers collections for other title. If you have a movie you own and want us to screen, feel free to bring it! We are also taking movie suggestions, but ask that we keep it appropriate for all ages.
Foods and drinks will be provided, but if you have that favorite snack you simply cannot watch movies without it’s probably best to bring it yourself, as we won’t be taking request on the food. It’s also BYOB, or Bring your own Booze, if that is your thirst quencher of choice.
We will be fielding all requests, comment, questions and other inquires at this time. Movie requests may continue even through Saturday, and we look forward to seeing you there.
Especially me, I’d love to meet some new faces, and to better get to know those I’ve met already!
[Evan grins at the camera, and starts to turn towards Ginia to lead them out with the final song choices. However a flash of pure mischief crosses his face before he straightens and looks solemnly at the journal.
Ginia blinks in confusion, hands pausing over the keys, wondering if Evan thought of something to add.
Then Evan starts to speaking in an eerie sing song:]
theres no earthly way of knowing
which direction we are going
there's no knowing where we're rowing
or which way the rivers flowing
is it raining is it snowing
is a hurricane a blowing
[Ginia throws a pen that had been sitting on the piano hard at Evan’s face. It bounces off leaving a black smear, but Evan barely blinks as he continues growing louder:]
not a speck of light is showing
so the danger must be growing
are the fires of hell a’glowing
is the grisly reaper mowing
[ Evan gets even louder, an edge of faux panic in his voice as Ginia stands from the piano in exasperation-]
yes the danger must be growing
for the rowers keep on rowing
and they're certainly not showing
any signs that they are slowing
[Just as Evan opens his mouth for the eerie scream Ginia smacks him on the back of the head, hard. His jaw clicks shut and he giggles as Ginia signs quickly at him, berating him, even as she can’t quite hide a grin.
Evan smiles widely and raises his hand to make a placating gesture. Ginia points a finger under his nose and shakes it just once before throwing up her arms and sighing. She returns to the piano, feather bouncing jauntily tucked in the hat band, an amused smile on her lips even as she sets her hands back to ivory. Evan straightens and turns his head to nod at her, a small smile on his lips. She begins with the delicate beginning of Pure Imagination. It’s a straightforward piece and Evan simply sways as he sings.
As he trails off the song changes one final time, quietly slipping into the final tune of the broadcast, Stars. Evan closes his eyes as he sings this time, something nearly fragile in his expression even as he sings the powerful tune.
Both the piano and his voice stop as he ends the song. Evan opens his eyes, grins and takes an elaborate bow, before gesturing to Ginia and making her stand and bow as well. Still grinning he walks forward and turns off the feed.]

[Action]
Ginia flashes a quick grin of mischief to Evan before she starts to play.
