oo6 | [accidental voice] | can't tell you anything

[ Not surprisingly at all, by now, some singing makes its way out over the tablets... it's not the best singing ever, but hey, he's decent. Shane sounds harried and a little nervous as he sings this, because dammit, he doesn't want to, but it's... therapeutic? Good thing he's alone... cough.]

What if I told you you were appetizing
... I mean, amazing.
What if I told you that I hunger for your...
... err, conversation.
What if I told you if I didn't know you,
I would attack you... with hugs,
but because it would be a mistake, I can't tell you anything.

What if I told you you seem so delicious
... ly fantastical?
What if I told you that I was longing to chew...
... se you as my friend?
What if I told you I wanted to taste your...
... famous lasagna for lunch,
but because it would be a mistake
I really can't tell you anything.

This song has nothing to do with me or how I feel,
or how much I want to chase you down an alley

Because friends do that sometimes, I mean... I...

Oh, god.

What if I told you I'm really sorry?
Because I... really am
What if I told you I'm just stupid and young?
Because I really am
What if I told you I'm working harder
and I think it's starting to help

I don't wanna make a mistake
I'm sorry I look at you like you're steak
But I'm more afraid to get staked so I won't tell you
I can't tell you --

Is this thing -- oh, my g --

I just... told... you... everything.

... Ugh.

(( AND HERE IS THE SONG, I wrote and recorded it myself after getting smacked in the face with it without warning. ENJOY.))

Well -- I'm actually kinda trying to avoid that.

Even though your tummy's grumbling?

[errrrm]

Well... yeah. I can't.

Why not?

[Drusilla is going to be very helpful, obviously.]

'Cause someone will stake me if I do?

Only if you're foolish. Only if you let them.

I really -- there's nowhere to go here. They'd know it was a vampire, one of us... it'd be putting all of us in danger.

They're already waiting. You can't light a fire that's already burning.
