Meet and Greet Part Deux: The Socialing

[cityship]

The new people will find themselves ushered out of Obs Deck, so it can be shot down to the planet again, to pick the crew up. Eventually, the crew members on the mission are brought back up, and the doors open to let the two groups meet.

The newbies are likely not expecting their new crew-mates to come back bearing presents--which some of them are.

[ooc: This time anyone can post in. REMEMBER TO TAG OTHER PEOPLE, THO. This is set after the mission so mission peoples can meet the newbies. Latecomer newbies, if you want, you can just tag your guys into this one to make things easier.]

"I understand. I wouldn't forgive anyone if they took away what made Will, Will." His hand clenched and he let out a shuddering sigh. "Let's give this creature hell and bring back our friends and loved ones."

Katara nodded. "I don't like to get this way often, and I know its not a good thing to do it, but they've already messed with his memory and done things to him, Will. If they've changed him from the boy I know and love, I won't forgive them."

Matt nodded, a slight scowl in his expression. "When time is in trouble / all you can do is pray / thunder roars lightning flashes / and all you do today / Is believe..."

He smiled said, "It's a new original piece I'm working on as well, to lighten the mood."

Katara paused, and her angry expression evaporated immediately. "It's really nice, Matt. You really are talented!"

Katara grinned. "Will is so blessed to have you Matt. I almost wished I played an instrument.

"I could teach you," said Matt, sporting a little grin. "With the sensoriums I've got an infinite amount of musical instruments. When we have some down time, I could teach you what I know. I usually play the guitar but I know several other instruments."

Katara shook her head. "Oh, no way. With all of the things I'm doing, it would probably burn me through! But thank you for offering. I think I'll just be content to be one of your fans, okay?"

Because truthfully, she loved just sitting and hearing the music.

Matt grinned. "All right, and sometimes yeah it's a good thing to just sit back and relax and listen."

Raising his voice he started to sing.

Snow has fallen, leaves under the white
Scattered all around, no end in sight
Christmas was upon us, New Years has past
come on then, lets have a blast...

He grinned and started to sing louder.

And its the holidays all the time for cheer
come and save us, this yuletide year
here and rejoice, our love and our friends
yes it's the holidays and there's no time for it to end

Come on and take us all one by one
Our spirits to heaven, and love all abounds
those people we find and those who we seek
lets give it our all and what do we need?

And it's the holdays our world naught of fear
our world yuletide week so wrought with need
and our lives will shine, our hearts will go on
it's the holidays and there is all the time for the world to hear

that it's the christmas time
all year

Katara closed her eyes here and relaxed to the floor, letting the music and the words wash over her. The words were pretty, and they were certainly moving. They made her think of being back in Baghdad, in the Philippines, even in the UK. The religion was different, but the love, the sharing, all of that was the same. And so the performance moved her, and after he was done she gave her a beaming smile.

"That was wonderful, Matt. I'm sure she'll like it."

Matt flushed and bowed, his smile reaching his eyes. "I've been writing a lot of songs in my mind lately. The season is good for it. And it's one of those fun songs and I'm sure I can write more when the time allows."

[kaya-waterwave.livejournal.com]

"It suits the season, yes," Katara said, "But its also a nice sentiment too. I just hope you get the time that you need. And make sure you keep an eye on Will too."

She leaned back, closing her eyes.

"I will. You can count on it," smiled Matt with a grin.
