SEND ☼ TO HEAR THE WORDS THAT MY MUSE WOULD WHISPER TO YOURS ONLY WHEN YOUR MUSE IS FAST ASLEEP

If someone had told him a month ago that he’d be hanging out with Rock Hime’s biggest loudmouth, Arakita would have laughed right in their fucking face. But here he was, sitting next to the red head on the bloody tram taking them back to their cars. He wasn’t sure why but their competitive exchanges over the course of many band festivals lead to Naruko inviting him to go to the zoo. Granted, it was less of an invite and more of a taunt. He had stated that no one else was free to go with him so he figured he’d take the pet of I.M.F.A.S.T. along with him.  Arakita still had no idea why he said yes.However, they’d both ended up having a good time. Bickering had ensued  and quite a handful of parents had to cover their children’s ears from all the cursing. Naruko had made sure that they go see the tigers while Arakita had insisted later they were to be ‘one-upped’ by the wolves.  But the two found that they had more in common than they had suspected. Not to mention, they were both pretty passionate towards and fascinated by the animals. The jostling of the tram caused Arakita to break out of his reverie and take note of the warm weight that was now resting on his arm. Looks like the guitarist had tuckered out from all the fun and had chosen to take up his shoulder as a resting place. Arakita let out a sigh as he knew this meant he’d have to remain still until they came to a stop. He wasn’t heartless enough to shove him off like he would if it was Toudou or some other band member. Instead he just turned his attention back out to the passing scenery. 

send me a ➸ for an affectionate text message from my muse

"Ah, Naruko. Kinjou gave me your number. He said you needed to be able to contact me if you got yourself in trouble. Am I your keeper now?? Anyway, I just wanted to say that even though you’re cocky and loud and a pain to be around, you really are a talented guitar player. And I think you will help Rock Hime take the charts just as much as I will. 

This changes nothing.

It was nothing less than a work of art. Or at least, that’s what Naruko thought as he stepped back from his handy work, tape in hand, to behold an image of a busty blond on the back of a silver sports car. It had take a few hours, but he was officially moved in now. His posters, which ranged from images of cars, women, guitars, and tigers, literally wallpapered the room.

He had made the bed (this would probably be the only time he saw it not torn apart) with his red and black tiger striped bed spread, all his pillows fluffed and waiting. The night side table had his favorite magazines on it. Guitar and amp in the corner, sheet music scattered on the desk. Closet full of orange, red, and black tiger themed shirts.

 Letting out a sigh in relief, he flopped back onto the bed. He looked around inspecting the room, eyes going to one of the busty women on his wall. Perfect view.

 He had joined the band Rock HIME, and had been considered a member for a while, but now, all moved into the bands shared condo, he was officially in the band! He wasted no time, making sure he had gotten to the condo to move in early and place a claim on the room he wanted. See, though Naruko was thrilled at his new position, he wasn’t the only newer member. Imaizumi was also moving in today.

 Imaizumi wasn’t a bad person or anything, the guy just grated on Naruko. Rubbed him the wrong way. The two had many chances to build a friendship in their earlier careers as musicians, and many people loved the way their music complimented each other. But backstage is where the sparks flew, and in the end the pair deemed each other as people they were unable to work with…

Now he was in Rock HIME, and for once in his life had a chance to rock it out with the big dogs. But that meant working with Imaizumi. Naruko let out an annoyed sigh and looked up at the ceiling.

 Just then he was startled by a knock at the door. Naruko sat up with a confused look as it creaked open.
