[tapdancinskelly]

PARTY!!!!

Everyone is invited to come to this party and just magically show up to hear the music that will be in store.

Brook shall be busting around everywhere, as a party post anyone can show up and do just about anything.  Eat, listen to music, throw tomatoes, make out in the closet, play on the beach on the island they're docked at, pretty much anything at all.

The Lawn deck is where most of the party shall take place and there is a stage there too.  People are welcome to request the musicians to play something they request and they shall be playing a few songs of their own.  Brook shall also sing every song he's ever written (by me posting links to youtube throughout the party.  People on the lawn deck are free to dance and react to songs that people have played.

The straw hat ship is docked an island and if there are any problems or difficulties please contact me immidiately via my AIM or E-mail.  If I cannot be reached at either of those you can most likely contact CC to get a hold of me.

Oh, and in case you haven't figured out this party is on the Straw Hat pirate ship the thousand sunny and there is an island they are docked at you can go to too.  It's an autumn island with a lovely forest with lovely foliage that is... lovely.

A very large grin slowly materialized over the piano before invisible paws pressed down onto the keys. The smile continued to hover as notes blarred out from the instrument which created a horrific sound. Vanishing momentarily, the stage went silent before the Cheshire Cat appeared beside the mic. He smiled at it before whistling through tuned teeth, "'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves did gyre and gimble in the wabe...~"

"W-what a...unique song, Cheshire Cat" Botan says, walking up to the edge of the stage, astounded by the sudden materialization of the cat. Honestly, that's what had drawn her attention in the first place. "D-did you write it yourself?"

The Stage

[tapdancinskelly.livejournal.com]

"Yes, it is a quite unique little song if I do say so myself." Brooke said as he slided over from his position on stage to greet the young lady who walked to the edge of it.

"So Lady Botan, think you shall reconsider joining us on stage? Yohohoho!"

Re: The Stage

[bubblyreaper.livejournal.com]

"W-what?!" Botan said, clinging to the stage. There was NO WAY IN HELL she was going to get up there and sing, especially since she had never done it before. Sure, stick her to risk her life to stop a demon and she didn't have a problem. But singing in front of a crowd? Hell to the no.

Re: The Stage

[tapdancinskelly.livejournal.com]

Brooke simply smiled at the slight panic he could hear behind that 'W-what?!' and said trying to reassure her, "Oh Botan, that was another one of my silly Bard type jokes. There would have to be at least 10,000 more people for me to even consider this a challenge for you. Yohohoho!" He couldn't help but add in another joke to tease her stage fright a little.

"So shall I see you after the party for some one on one lessons? Yohohoho!" Brooke said with a wink. However he didn't have eyelids so it just looked like a regular smile.

Re: The Stage

"Maybe I'll take you up on the offer, Brooke" Botan laughed sheepishly, not even sure if she even had a decent voice. "If anything, it gives me a reason to visit the ship"

Re: The Stage

"Why thank you, but I didn't write it~" Cheshire said as he jumped down to the floor and disappeared right before hitting the ground. He reappeared just in front of Botan's face and grinned at her. "Did you like it~?"

Re: The Stage

[bubblyreaper.livejournal.com]

Botan shrieked, falling back on her tush at the sudden appearence of the cat. What in the--? "It was... different. I... guess I liked it. What is it about exactly?" the River Styx pilot asks, standing and brushing dirt off her pink kimono. Honestly, as nice as his song sounded, it's words were really confusing.

Re: The Stage

[vanishing-grin.livejournal.com]

Unfazed by Botan's fright, Cheshire merely gave her a quizzical glance with a wide grin. "Oh, it's just about how the Jabberwocky lost his head~ Not by the Queen's doing, mind you!"

Brook was admittedly startled by the sudden appearance of the Cheshire cat's singing. Nonetheless he tried his best to follow the bizarre tune that was the Cheshire Cat's song. Brook had not initially wanted to open with the Cheshire cat singing because he was worried he would scare everyone's socks off. But what was done was done and he rather like the Cheshire Cat's antics.

"Ladies and gentlemen! Let's give a big round of applause to the Cheshire Cat as we welcome you to Brook's Musical Extravaganza! And now to get things started, I welcome you all to the Grand Line!"

((ooc: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j0TXEK777uM Welcome to the Grand Line))

After Brook and the other musicians who were here finished singing Brook thought he'd take the time to ask a few questions from the 'person' who sang their first guest song. "So Mr. Cheshire, or can I just call you cat? Where did you learn to play the piano like... that?"

[vanishing-grin.livejournal.com]

Cheshire stood up from his spot by the mic and took a bow before materializing beside Brooke as he sang his welcoming song.

"Mr. Cheshire is quite alright~" the Cat mused as he looked at the keys thoughtfully, "I can't say I learned~ I played what I played, there is no learning..."

[tapdancinskelly.livejournal.com]

"Ahh..." Brooke said as he took out a cup of tea from his coat pocket and a travel tea pot from the other and poured himself a glass. "So what you're saying," Brooke said between sips, "Is that you rely on instinct?"

[vanishing-grin.livejournal.com]

"Well, I do supposed Instinct has taught me much, but tends to hide in such company~" Cheshire grinned as he eyed Brooke's teacup. "Would you like to try a tomatoe with that~?"

From the audience, Reborn saw the Cheshire Cat settle down at the piano to play a song. He knew the poem, a classic, and was impressed by the performance.

Re: The Stage

[vanishing-grin.livejournal.com]

Spotting a familiar hat beyond the stage, Cheshire Cat blinked at the figure before disappearing from the piano. He emerged into view in front of Reborn, lifting the top of his head as he did so. "Heeeeello~ Are you enjoying yourself tonight?"

Re: The Stage

[chameleongun.livejournal.com]

"Always such a gentleman, Cheshire Cat," Reborn replied back, touching the brim of his hat off to the cat in response. "Of course."

Re: The Stage

[vanishing-grin.livejournal.com]

"Splendid~! Are you planning on singing tonight? I am so curious as to hear your singing voice~!" Cheshire said as his tail began to disappear.

The sound of the cat's paws on the keys jolt Gokudera's attention to the stage as he's passing, and he stops to glare at the feline behind the microphone. "aUGGH." A sound escapes him that suggests he's vomiting inside his own mouth, and a disgusted expression settles over his pale face.

Re: The Stage

[tapdancinskelly.livejournal.com]

Brooke saw the young man looking rather ill in front of the stage as the Cheshire Cat sang his bizarre little tune. "Are you quite alright?" Brooke asked leaning down a bit.

Re: The Stage

[bakudan-shounen.livejournal.com]

Irritation tightens his face as he looks up at the skeleton addressing him. He pauses for a moment to consider his words. It's hard to judge an expression in someone's eyes when they have none. "... You should ask your piano."

Re: The Stage

[tapdancinskelly.livejournal.com]

"Oh?" Brooke asked as he turned his head towards the piano to see the Cheshire Cat playing half invisible. "Oh. I see. Don't really care for the disappearing reappearing musical artists?" Brooke asked keeping a mostly straight face. "Would you perhaps like a cup of tea?" Brooke asked pulling a cup from his pocket. "It's not everyone's preference but I've always found it helps with nausea."

Re: The Stage

[vanishing-grin.livejournal.com]

With a flick of his ears, Cheshire pinpointed the digusted sound and quickly directed his gaze towards Gokudera. His smile seemed to freeze and turn almost icy before he vanished quickly, his smile materializing directly in front of the other's face.
"Enjoying yourself~?

Re: The Stage

[bakudan-shounen.livejournal.com]

His green eyes widen in shock and Gokudera lets out a quick curse, stepping back and running his shoulder into one of Brook's arms. He doesn't even excuse himself, keeping his attention focused entirely on the floating mouth before him. "What the hell!?" Gokudera's right hand reaches inside of his suit jacket to fetch a few sticks of dynamite...

Re: The Stage

[vanishing-grin.livejournal.com]

Two feline eyes blinked themselves into existance as they hovered over the grin. "Expecting someone else~?" Cheshire asked before chuckling at Gokudera's unnerved state.

Re: The Stage

[tapdancinskelly.livejournal.com]

Brooke's tea that he had pulled out spilled on him and the Bard started dancing around in circles waving his burnt hand around trying to soothe the burning sensation. "OUCH!!!"
