"Hey, you're not the first person to call me wierd~" Ryo looked over at Suoh with a grin. "I'm pretty sure you're not so normal yourself."

Suoh's fingers picked up a complicated series of notes on the guitar and he simply smiled. "Normal's all a matter of perception. At least I come off as being normal."

"Pfft, whatever you say~" Ryo sank back in the grass. He should probably still be reading, but he was enjoying just being with someone else so much more then the book alone would.

Suoh continued to play, the classical influence apparent in his intricate playing. "Any requests, kid?"

"Uhm, I don't really know any songs..." He shrugged. "Maybe something you like?"

"What I like? There's lots of it kid. But I'm feeling nostalgic, so I'll teach you something from the village Oki and I were born in..."
Suoh shifted his playing style away from the classical easily and into something more fitting for a lively kitchen party, letting the melody float freely before he began to sing.
'It's takes a lot to get to the top And a little just to fall off quick And I think I've seen you here before
Sometimes you fly so high So fast it makes you sick You won the battle lost the war
But I don't mind if you say Everytime you talk to me Everytime we talk
We came, we saw We conquered and crumbled In our own true way We loved, we fought We rocked and we tumbled In our own true way
Well I belive in brotherhood And the good of all mankind Though I admit it's hard to find
But if you want to talk just come and knock It don't matter what the time Solitude is no friend of mine
And I don't mind if you say Everytime you talk to me Everytime we talk
We came, we saw We conquered and crumbled In our own true way We loved, we fought We rocked and we tumbled In our own true way
I don't mind
It's hard to be from a rock in the sea Livin' in a big steel town Finding unfamiliar faces all around
You heard 'em tell stupid jokes You heard 'em laugh everytime you spoke But you don't let nobody put you down
But I don't mind if you say Everytime you talk to me Everytime you talk to me Everytime we talk
We came, we saw We conquered and crumbled In our own true way We loved, we fought We rocked and we tumbled In our own true way
In our own true way And I don't mind If you say...'

Ryo listened with a grin on his face, bobbing his head to the music that Suoh made. "That was from your owl home?" he asked after the song had finished. "That was fun~"

"Yup!" Suoh grinned. "We were born on the coast, right on the water in a busy shipping port. They had some awesome music there, really fun stuff with a good beat. If someone brought out a guitar and a fiddle, you had a party right then and there. My dad... well, foster dad, I guess... He plays a lot of guitar, and he taught me a lot of the songs he used to play with my father."

"So your 'now' father taught you the songs of your 'then' father?" Ryo sat back up, watching Suoh and pulling out grass idly.

"Yeah. My 'now' father was a good friend of my 'then' father, and took me in when I lost Oki and my parents. He wanted me to remember my father, my home, so we played and sang together a lot. He'd pull out the guitars most evenings after supper and we'd just jam. We'd spend hours at it, just for the fun of it."

Ryo smiled, getting a far-off look in his eyes for a moment. "That sounds wonderful~"

"Good times," Suoh nodded. "Probably would have been better if it was with my actual father, and just my mother and one sister instead of four foster sisters and a well meaning foster mother, but I can't complain. I've been fortunate."

"mmhmm, sounds like you have been." Ryo snickered. "But that's a lot of girls!" Maybe that was where suoh's girl obsession came from?

Suoh groaned. "And each of them was a bigger pain in the ass than the next! A twin sister? That would have been fine, Oki's cool. But four older foster sisters? No, that was not cool. Not even a little bit. They thought I was a damned doll that they could dress up because they were bigger than I was."

Ryo snickered, trying not to outright laugh? "Dress up? You're telling me they put you in dresses?" This was too much~
