[Jacqli appears on the Plane with the smuggest of smirks on her face. It's almost... dark, the way she wears it. She looks like she has all of the answers, like everything is going her way and nothing can stop it. And in this particular case, she's probably right. Which is probably the scary part.]

... Finally.

[She looks around, wondering who might be around. Then she decides that it doesn't matter, and makes her way to the beach. The desolate, waterless sand seems an ideal place for something like this, anyway. And once she's there, situated and ready, she rolls her shoulders back, tosses her hair out of her face and stands a bit straighter.]

I'll make sure it's ready before I go back.

[Suddenly, there's music, and she begins to sing.

Of course here, on the Plane, her words are translated for all...

Enjoy the free show.]

[o u kno. just smug about bein a short little badass.

She doesn't notice him for a while, admittedly. She's almost through with her song before she feels like she may be being watched, and when she turns around to find that it's him, she... smiles, a little.

And as much emotion as she was pouring into the song before she knew he was there, now there's even more. She wonders if he's paying attention to her words, putting two and two together, wondering about her and her ridiculous past that he knows more about than he probably realizes... "Overflowing like blood - are you pleased? Will you praise me for this? Overflowing like love - why won't you answer me...?"

And when she's done, she's still for a moment, but then she goes to sit beside him.]

I bet you were here the whole time.

[ a short little cute badass, if you ask him.

but he doesn't want to get smacked, so .. he'll just keep that to himself for the moment.

he just listens to her song, unaware of the fact that his eyes have drifted closed somewhere along the way until he opens them again, lost in the sound of her voice and the beauty of it all.

he's never thought he could appreciate something like this .. but she makes it easy.

when she comes to sit beside him, he leans over and rests his chin on one small shoulder, a soft smile curving the line of his mouth upward. ] Yep. I'm a ninja like that.

[She straightens a bit when he leans on her, as if maybe that will somehow help her fight off the fact that her cheeks are slowly turning a faint shade of pink. Oops.

And she quirks a single eyebrow at him.]

Ninjas wear masks and strike people from behind. I don't think they make it a habit to sit in the sand and listen to songs.
