Rock Band Party, Tuesday Evening, First Floor Rec Room

[glacial_queen]

Karla and Warren had celebrated their return to their proper forms in the way that many teenagers would find appropriate: they'd headed back to the modern mainland, found a toy store, and bought a gaming system (or three). Along with the games they bought to go along with said system, they also picked up a few guitars, a keyboard, a drum set, and two microphones.

Once back in the rec room, the rest of the afternoon had been spent setting up the systems and buying every single song available for the game. Waiting for them to finish downloading actually took longer than the initial setting up, even taking in Karla's attempts to 'help'.

But now the system was set up, the songs were ready, and the instruments prepared.

Fandom High? Get ready to rock.

Oh Darkness. By the time Tony was done tweaking, the instruments would play themselves and also control NASA satellites.

"I'm sure no one would mind if you grabbed a guitar on the next song," Karla said, struggling to hit the red drum AND step on the pedal at the same time. "I can try to weasel someone else into being the foot pedal for me."

ONLY A LITTLE BIT. GAWD, KARLA.

"A two person drummer," Tony replied. "I'm sure it'll be a new thing."

[glacial_queen]

"Foot pedal is hard, okay?" Karla protested. "Besides, shouldn't you be preparing for your duet with Warren anyway?"

If only she could eat popcorn and drum at the same time...

"Once he works up the nerve to do it." Not that he was nervous. Nooooope.

[glacial_queen]

"Whereas you're all suave confidence?" Karla said, raising an eyebrow. "This I can't wait to see." If for no other reason that to snap a picture with her phone and send it to the boyos. "In fact, if you're getting bored waiting for him, you could always sing a duet with me."

[hoorayimrich.livejournal.com]

Hey! That was completely uncalled for!

"A duet?" OH GOD, WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS TO HIM?

[glacial_queen]

"It doesn't even have to be a love song," Karla offered sweetly.

BECAUSE SHE WAS EVIL. PURE EVIL.

Tony sighed dramatically. "What, and not make Warren jealous?"

[glacial_queen]

AND THIS WAS HOW IT STARTED.

"Well, only if you're not intimidated..."

[hoorayimrich.livejournal.com]

At least there wasn't a yacht nearby?

"Intimidated? Never."

[glacial_queen]

The duet he and Warren were singing was foreshadowing.

"So then you want to sing love songs with me," Karla said with a nod. "Okay, we can find something, I'm sure."

They couldn't help but be on a boat!

Tony shot her a look before picking a song (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F8XK0AZZlug) that was just horrible enough to work.

With no goddamn autotune. "I'll try not to make Warren too jealous with all this chemistry here."

[glacial_queen]

"He is the jealous type," Karla said, nodding solemnly.

...While not cracking up. It was harder than one might think.

The words started scrolling onto the screen and Karla lost the fight with laughter. "I think the first stanza is yours," she announced. "Come on, Tony, make me believe it."

[hoorayimrich.livejournal.com]

They had mad chemistry. Tony cleared his throat, watching the lyrics for a moment before starting. "Baby, can't you see? I'm calling--:

Wait, had to change that gender. "--a girl like you, should wear a warning. It's dangerous, I'm fallin'."

[glacial_queen]

Aww, he'd caught that. No time to be pouty, though, because her stanza was next.

"There's no escape, I can't wait. I need a hit, baby gimme it. You're dangerous, I'm loving it."

She waggled her eyebrows at him. Just because.

[hoorayimrich.livejournal.com]

Because he was her dream man, clearly. Engine grease stained shirt and welding burns? Height of sexy.

"Too high, can't come down, losing my head, spinning 'round and 'round," Tony sang back, giving a little shoulder shimmy. Because he was doing this with geeky style. "Do you feel me now?"

[glacial_queen]

Sorry, Tony. That was Ben's kink, not Karla's.

Oooh, chorus time!

"With a taste of your lips, I'm on a riiiiide. You're toxic, I'm slipping under. With the taste of a poison paradise, I'm addicted to you. But you know that you're toxic. And I love what you do. But you know that you're toxic."

If Tony was going to shimmy at her, she was going to have to add a few sultry glances and some hip swaying. It was mandatory.
