6th Solo [video]

[Afternoon light streams through the window as Haji sets the camera up, showing the chair sitting in the middle of the kitchen. His cello case is open, but before he takes it out he goes to the sink and opens one of the taps. It's the Transiberian Orchestra and he frowns slightly before turning it off and opening the other. The sound of piano music begins and after a moment, he nods his head and settles in the chair, picking up the cello and beginning a nice accompaniment to the piece as he speaks.]

This does not seem to be such a bad curse.

[He pauses, listening to the music play as he picks up the tempo to follow along.]

The kitchen has been playing this piece for most of the afternoon, a lamp in my bedroom is playing of the Carol of the Bells.

[He pays for awhile again, complete with a key change that has his wrapped hand dancing the bow over the strings before the piece comes to an end.]

There are worse ways to spend a day.

[With that, he puts the cello away and turns off the recorder.]

A very long time. It has been a constant in my life.

I see. That would explain a lot. Ah, I am Ciel Phantomhive -- and you are?

Mr. Phantomhive. I am Haji.

A pleasure to meet you then.

Are you a musician?

[identity profile] eidoloncast.livejournal.com 2011-12-04 11:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes. Though not a professional. I can play the violin. Why do you ask?

[identity profile] whithersoevergo.livejournal.com 2011-12-04 11:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Curiosity, nothing more. You're not the first musician who has contacted me through this device.

[identity profile] eidoloncast.livejournal.com 2011-12-04 11:51 pm (UTC)(link)
I did not contact you only because I am a musician -- rather, your talent deserves to be recognized.

Again, thank you for the compliment, but I play only to pass the time, or pick up a little money here and there.

I see. And what do you do for a living, then?

[identity profile] sempreadagio.livejournal.com 2011-12-05 12:12 am (UTC)(link)
Just barely. I had to blink. People blink more than we realize.

[identity profile] whithersoevergo.livejournal.com 2011-12-05 01:00 am (UTC)(link)
People do. [He's not people.]

I have no... formal employment. My true work is more informal than that.

Mm, yes. The music was nice to wake up to.

I'm glad, then. I didn't want to try too many devices until you were awake in case one was less than pleasing.

[identity profile] sempreadagio.livejournal.com 2011-12-05 04:44 pm (UTC)(link)
And you don't sleep like people. Or blink.

[identity profile] whithersoevergo.livejournal.com 2011-12-06 02:29 am (UTC)(link)
Something like that.

[identity profile] sempreadagio.livejournal.com 2011-12-06 03:01 pm (UTC)(link)
What's something?

[identity profile] whithersoevergo.livejournal.com 2011-12-07 03:27 am (UTC)(link)
I'm not like most of the residents here, Jill.

You're always so thoughtful.

[Not that that's a surprise, she's just sayin'.]

[identity profile] whithersoevergo.livejournal.com 2011-12-07 03:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Do you have any requests?

[She's always his favorite audience.]

[identity profile] sempreadagio.livejournal.com 2011-12-07 04:20 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm getting that. It's okay... I think.

[identity profile] whithersoevergo.livejournal.com 2011-12-09 02:57 am (UTC)(link)
I mean you no harm.

[identity profile] sempreadagio.livejournal.com 2011-12-10 04:49 pm (UTC)(link)
You probably would have hurt me a long time ago if you did.

Some Mozart maybe. Does one of the lights play that?
