[ Really, all he needs doing is to plan lyrics and tidy up his thoughts. Without earphones, he can't listen to his music - if anything, what he had was only half-done.
Half an hour later, he emerges out of his room exactly on time, having changed his clothes to something more appropriate for the outdoors. ]
[Maybe they can go buy earphones while there. OHHHHH.
She's already changed too, something more summer appropriate but practical. It's almost like she doesn't have to impress him (sorry...Tokiya). She was just sorting through fabrics before he emerges, and so stops and gets up, quickly taking her bag.]
Ready?
[If so, she'll lead him towards the garage. Although, by habit this means she's leading to her motorbike, but she'll quickly chance gears towards the convertible. Although she does consider going back to the motorbike. Mostly because she drives like there's no speed limit in a car. No, tell yourself to control your habits, Vietnam. This is for food.]
[ He doesn't say anything when Vietnam calls out to him, merely replying by way of a nod. He didn't have a bag with him, having slipped his phone and keys into his pocket.
When they get into the car, he takes the seat next to the driver's and buckles in the seatbelt, still silent and observing everything with his sharp steel blue gaze.
Please drive safely, or he will have Many Objections. ]
[Ah...much regret. She's gotten better in the last few years. She's not a bad driver, really. She's just reckless.
God she's going to be so careful now, okay. He might notice how she stiffly she sits after she buckles up and starts reversing out of the garage and driveway into the street. Everything is gloriously smooth. Aside from her posture.]
[ Tokiya notes the stiffness of her countenance, but doesn't comment on it. At first, there is also a slight tension in the way he holds himself, but it eases up after a while once he can ascertain that Vietnam wouldn't crash the car.
He really isn't going to say anything unless she starts the conversation first. There is still a lot to think about, more than enough to keep him occupied on the way. ]
[She's sorry, Tokiya, for making it so tense for him too. But he looks like he's relaxing now. Excuse the fact she's driving on the faster end of safe, though. At least she's stopped honking like crazy.
She doesn't really care for conversation if he doesn't want to start one. Although since this is the family car and he might be being polite--] If you want to turn on some music, feel free to. There might be some CDs around, I don't often use the car so I am unsure what's available.
[She likes yo cheesy pop songs too, dude. He could've plugged it in! But for now, she'll let him search around. Tamaki does have classic tastes, and Chiyo is a cute ordinary girl with great talent. Surely it's all safe.]
Do you see anything you like? You don't have to worry about me, I'll listen to almost anything. [She's also not picky because this way she can learn. There's a sharp turn, but she makes it with no one feeling too rushed. Ah yes, good job.]
[ Some things really are too cheesy for his liking until he actually gets a waifu and then it all makes sense .
Nevertheless, he manages to find an innocuous-looking one and slots it into the player. It's presumably one of Chiyo's discs, since it contains Japanese idol music of the female variety.
It can really monopolise one's attention, yes. I suppose for listening while you are trying to work, something slower would be more appropriate. [A SOFTY!!!] Slower pieces are probably more vocally strenuous? You'll need to be very emotional...
[EXACTLY let them come with banners and glowsticks, you tsun.]
Happier songs? [She's heard some, but it's not like such music is super common when many try to bust out a ballad when they're trying to do a slow song.]
no subject
I'd like you to come with me to the supermarket. And then I will show you around the kitchen.
[Tokiya, at least this is just some simple deeds, okay.]
no subject
I can do that.
[ At least it isn't something too absurd. ]
Half an hour.
no subject
Wonderful! I will meet you in the lounge room in half an hour.
[She turns around to go to let him attend to whatever it is he needs to do in half an hour.]

[ He could probably plug his phone in, but he isn't sure what Vietnam's taste in music is. Maybe it would clash.
So he's just going to look around to see if there are any CDs lying around. Maybe they belonged to Chiyo or Tamaki? ]

Which makes him feel better, but only slightly. ]
no subject
[This one was safe and cute though. She sometimes taps her finger along with the beat whenever they have to stop.]
As an idol, what type of music do you sing?
no subject
The question, however, is much more difficult to respond to. He needs to mind his double identity. ]
I have not debuted yet, so I just sing whatever is needed for training and from my agency. I have not been assigned a genre yet.
no subject
And another turn!]
Oh? Do you have a preference though?
no subject
It depends. To sing, or to listen?
no subject
Mmm, let's go with both!
no subject
For listening, I prefer ones with softer emotion. As for singing... I have not had the chance to do much, so perhaps likewise.
[ No way in hell is he going to mention Hayato's ones. ]
no subject
Oh? So you like soft music... [He is a softy then!!] You have a nice voice, I think you'll sing such songs wonderfully.
[And Hayato's songs too but she don't know that.]
no subject
Do you not find intense music rather distracting? [ No he's not a softy he's just a calm person! ] Slower pieces are more conducive for productivity.
[ We don't talk about Hayato. ]

[Wai nawt.]
no subject
Not those types of soft. Lighter emotion works with some types of melodies.
[ See: his Debut insert song and also Crystal time. The one typed into doing love songs is Masato, not him. ]
no subject
Happier songs? [She's heard some, but it's not like such music is super common when many try to bust out a ballad when they're trying to do a slow song.]
no subject
Not the saccharine type. [ He replies sharply, almost a little too fast to be appropriate. ] Those are too artificial.
[ We don't talk about Hayato. ]
no subject
Do you have an example? What song would you consider perfect? [She's asking for a song name and artist, just in case she can recognise it.
But he sparkles, Tokiya.]
