[She even shimmied her way to the consoles and offered her stored Chroma to pay for the items taken.
The voices in the store lifted as she moved for the exit, bringing her song to a close. A lively strumming and a whip of her tail later, and a show-stopper melted back into reality.
The people resumed their shopping experience as if nothing happened, even if a few faces were flushed. Madhuri beamed at Naoto.]
[But she casually swept her hair behind her shoulders.]
...Would you like to? Thanks to the way we possess this Chroma, we're able to learn a little something from each other should we bear some form of magic naturally.
Perhaps you don't wish for your lover to dance uncontrollably, of course, but there are perks to having a magic voice, should you seek the opportunity.
[But she trailed, thinking. Kanji's new Sanguis form gave him a new, rather - ah - alluring quality to his voice. Not that it normally wasn't, but there had to be a new part of the blessing arousing her further.]
... I... suppose there's no harm in trying something new.

...Thank you, sweetheart!

You're welcome. Thank you for the assistance. Had you not done that, we could've ended up lost here for hours.
[She held up Madhuri's shopping bag for her to take if she wanted right then and there.]

Just a little magic. Life grows considerably more convenient when you're a bard... especially with a lover with very keen ears.
[She tapped her cheek with a smile.]
Yours, actually, is a very lovely voice. Do you sing?
no subject
[That's a considerable advantage to have.]
I don't.

I can also teach you how to play an instrument, if you're so inclined.
[She tip-tapped away on her device and submitted contact information.]
Give me a buzz whenever you're ready. Until then, you've got groceries to hurry back to your festivities, as do I.

[At the mention of instrument, Naoto shook her head.]
That won't be necessary. I haven't practiced in a while since coming here, but I can play piano and violin.
[But yes, that last point was fair.]
Right. I need to get back; otherwise, this won't be ready later.
no subject
[Violin and piano? A classical type. But she'd seen bards with nearly all instruments... Naoto had immense potential at both routes.]
Of course. Do take care!
no subject
[Just maybe. Rise might have her secrets and that would be fine.]
You as well. Enjoy your evening.
[And off she'll go.]
