Great. Tell me when one of the lookers shows up, then. It's certainly not any of us.

It's called a compact disc, and the majority of what passes for music back home is absolute shit. Do you have one by the band "Queen"?

[om_nom_namur]

'Scuse you dude, Nami an' Keimi's already here. Well. Keimi's more cute an' shit but Nami's got it goin' on. Gotta be blind not t' see that. Or totally int' dudes...

[Namur gives him a sideways glance.]

Y' int' dudes?

[Regardless, he starts going through the pile of discs looking for one that says Queen. It doesn't even occur to him that Queen might only exist in Akira's world.]

[alwaysgrumpy]

Eh? Oh, I didn't see them. I guess they're okay, sure. It's not something I spend a lot of time thinkin' about, Sharky. Even if I swung toward men, my point stands.

[om_nom_namur]

[Namur just grunts because he doesn't get how any self respecting, hot blooded male wouldn't, but he knows there's plenty out there.]

More for me, I guess. Sheheheh!

[He's almost through the entire pile and still no Queen though.]

What y' spend yer time thinkin' 'bout instead?

[alwaysgrumpy]

Wishin' that I wasn't trapped here, for one thing.

[om_nom_namur]

Ain't we all, man. Shit. Nothin' says Queen. Course now I looked through all this shit it occurs t' me they mighta been a band from yer world, not this'n. What they sound like? 'Coustic, 'lectric, lots a screamin' or smooth voices?

[alwaysgrumpy]

Freddie Mercury has one of the most perfect human voices I've ever heard, he was the lead singer. He could scream, he could croon, he could do it. They did everything from power ballads to love songs to fight music.

[om_nom_namur]

Little bit a everythin' huh? Lessee, think there was someone talked up like that. Uh... hm.

[After another hurried shuffle through the pile Namur finally comes up with the CD he was looking for and pops it into the boombox.]

Somethin' like this float yer boat?

[alwaysgrumpy]

He's not quote on Freddie's level, but that's definitely within the ballpark. Pretty retro sound on that.

[om_nom_namur]

Wanna borrow it?

[alwaysgrumpy]

Nah, you keep it. It'll class you up, Shark-guy.

[om_nom_namur]

Already have it an' I don't think it's done much. Sheheheh!
