► He was considered a musical prodigy as a teenager and is sometimes called a cello genius (but he can still lose a play-off, so no worries).
► Loud, arrogant, violent and really not what you'd expect of the resident "classical" musician.

dishevelment: (how naive...)

Something hot...

[He smirked as he stood to join Squalo. Fingers lingered on the smooth leather of his jacket's sleeves, admiring the sleek texture and the firmness of the muscles it hid.]

Then again, I don't think the menu has anything hot enough to rival present company.

[Teasing? Definitely.]

One of those sweet coffees will have to do for now until we can get ourselves warmed up.

dishevelment: (charming)

[Intrigued, Koumei scooted into one of the barstools across from Squalo and leaned on the counter, resting his chin on his hands so he could watch Squalo work. Given the man's accent, he suspected that the cellist was from somewhere in Europa, but he wasn't one to make assumptions without a firm base.

But, this?]


Hm. Seems you're talented in more ways than one!
dishevelment: (cinnamon roll)

[personal profile] dishevelment 2015-12-04 06:32 pm (UTC)(link)
[The smells of whatever lovely concoction Squalo was whipping together were enough to tempt the Greats of Rock and Roll to raise from the dead. Koumei hummed blissfully, thoroughly enjoying this little prelude to the actual show.]

I can't wait to see the rest of them. ♥
dishevelment: (charming)

[personal profile] dishevelment 2015-12-05 04:16 pm (UTC)(link)
[Koumei took a sip, inhaling the heavenly scent of it and delighting in the creamy, cinnamony goodness of the drink. Smiling like a satisfied cat, Koumei glanced up at Squalo.]

It's as fantastic as it looks. You're quite the master barista!
dishevelment: (relaxed)

[personal profile] dishevelment 2015-12-05 11:59 pm (UTC)(link)
[The lounge was in the historic part of the city; most of these establishments were built in refurbished historic townhomes, and there often were the remnants of the housing space on the upper levels. Koumei was confident that they would be able to have their privacy one way or another-- if their performance reached that point.]

I don't know....we could go for the classics, something festive, or something a little saucy. What are you in the mood for?
dishevelment: (relaxed)

[personal profile] dishevelment 2015-12-07 01:12 am (UTC)(link)
[Koumei chuckled at that declaration.]

All right then. Are we talking Billy Joel style soft or Van Halen style soft?

[Because, clearly, there was a very distinct difference.]

[His smile grew a little more mischievous at those words.]

I know a number thats fantastic for a cellist accompaniment. You game?
dishevelment: (chuckle)

[personal profile] dishevelment 2015-12-07 04:53 pm (UTC)(link)
[Hiding his delighted laugh behind the foam of his drink, Koumei downed the rest of his as well and pushed away from the bar.]

I'll hold you to that, Squalo, [he said, teasing, and casually sauntered over to the piano in the back corner of the lounge.

Sliding into the seat, he tested how well it was tuned with a few simple chords-- and deftly moved into a sassy little ditty that hadn't been heard regularly on the radio for decades.

It was a beat that was felt in the gut and zinged like electricity through the instrument.

Then, to his own surprise, he began to sing along.]


She cuts you once, she cuts you twice
But still you believe~
The wound is so fresh you can taste the blood
BUt you don't have strength to leave~


[It was clear that vocals weren't his talent, but the fact that he was having fun was evident in his smile and the timbre of his voice.]
dishevelment: (relaxed)

[personal profile] dishevelment 2015-12-07 05:26 pm (UTC)(link)
[It's a fence that grows higher and more intricate as the chords progress in both speed and tempo. Squalo's melody is a perfect compliment-- and Koumei found himself even more impressed with his skills.

This was a talent that few could match.]


Then she says she wants forgiveness
It's such a clever masquerade
She's so good with her sti-let-to ~
You don't even see the blade~~

You don't see the blade~
dishevelment: (charming)

[personal profile] dishevelment 2015-12-07 06:36 pm (UTC)(link)
[Oh ho? How curious-- the additional lyrics weren't anticipated, but Koumei found himself following Squalo's lead:]


You can laugh, you can scream
Your voice cuts through the night
They can try to escape,
But the look on your faces,
Freezes their footsteps at the sight.


[The words bloomed like flowers on the vine. Unexpected, unbidden, but still fitting in with the song. Their origins were unknown-- but, Koumei would have it no other way.]
dishevelment: (war counsel)

THAT IS A-OKAY

[personal profile] dishevelment 2015-12-07 07:42 pm (UTC)(link)
[And the piano makes a base made of more than just wood and stone for the tide of the melody to surge around, cutting through tissue and bone to the heart of a matter that neither of them could see.

Koumei continues the song where Squalo left off, his warm baritone ringing with unusual clarity for the normally self-effacing pianist.]


--I can't even ask for more

We've been lost, not to be found
'Cause we've already pledged our life.
It's something bigger
And something grander,
Than all this foolish strife.

And when they say they have the answer
while telling us to look away~
there's no doubt we've always known the truth--
We've just got to show them the way~

Show them the way~~
dishevelment: (how naive...)

[personal profile] dishevelment 2015-12-07 08:23 pm (UTC)(link)
[The standing ovation was secondary to Koumei's interests; the crowd, while an essential part of the stage's chemistry, paled in comparison to Squalo's talent and dexterous hands. Tossing his hair over his shoulder, he threw a rougish grin at the people in the lounge before turning his attention to Squalo.]

You've surpassed my expectations. That was fantastic!
dishevelment: (charming)

[personal profile] dishevelment 2015-12-09 10:38 pm (UTC)(link)
[Even if the bar was exceedingly high, the thirst in Squalo's eyes was reward enough for Koumei. He reached out to teasingly play with Squalo's immensly long hair as well, and gently wound those locks around his fingers....]

And I think I'd be up for that challenge. Shall we?
