Double the Bunny, Double the Fun
Who: WangJi and You! ... with closed action to WuXian
Where: Greenhouse Car, Dining Car, randomly around the train
When: Horseshoe Day 1
What: WangJi has retrieved his new rabbit from the luggage car and wants to introduce it to the train... and find his husband
Warnings: Fluff? Is fluff a warning?
WangJi had finally picked up his request from the luggage car, a small black rabbit that was both a friend for Little Rabbit and a surprise for his husband... since he wanted him to name it since he had gotten to name the last one.
So he was wandering the train with the black rabbit in his arms, standing out brilliantly against his white sleeves. He wanted the rabbit to get used to the sights and sounds of the train, the same way that Little Rabbit was used to them as well.
In the course of his exploration with the rabbit, he made it to the dining car to see what herbs and vegetables were available for a snack and through the library. He avoided the music car because he didn't want to upset the small rabbit with too much noise.
Greenhouse Car
Finally, he decided to take the new rabbit to meet his companion, Little Rabbit. For the moment, he was going to let them get used to each other through the fence of what would be their shared hutch, letting them not see the other rabbit as a threat.
But the black rabbit, of course, wanted to explore the garden car, hopping around and sniffing the plants.
"Careful, little one," WangJi said to the rabbit, kneeling in between where the rabbit was exploring the hutch where Little Rabbit was sitting, watching the new arrival.
Closed to WuXian
Finally, he found his husband. Somehow in a living arrangement that was basically a straight line, it was still hard to find people.
"Wei Ying."
He approached, holding the black rabbit in his arms.

"The music car came with a lot more variety than the library car; not sure what's up with that..."
But then, like the cinema, it was also impossible to determine most of their contents' origins. At least with the library it was easier to put things from home in there.
no subject
He debated for a moment. "Perhaps the trained determined a greater variety of instruments than books and that's how it decided?"
It was the only thing that he could think of.
no subject
In other words, a library of songs.
"I could help you find something from home, sometime? Not sure if the Music Car will accept new recordings on our end, but that might be an option too."
no subject
He was not good with technical stuff so he tended to avoid it aside from the few times with the communication device so he had not even attempted it. He had looked at the instruments though.
"I would appreciate the help to find something from home." He smiled faintly.
... We could timeskip to them doing exactly that, or have it happen after the mission?
"Just let me know when."
It sounded like a good project to spend time on.
We can timeskip to it and have them doing that
"We can go now. Take the new rabbit to explore a little more."
Okay! /presses the fastforward button
But Nita could make up for that with a wizardry, if needed.
Some minutes later, once in the carriage, Nita stared at one of the screens, scrolling through the digital library.
"What instruments featured, in the songs you know?"
Wooo!
Bunny probably didn't need headphones.
In the music car, the new rabbit sitting tucked to the front of WangJi's robes - and he was quite happy there with his tiny black head sticking out, WangJi began looking at the screens with her. He still had no idea how to use them but he would probably learn now.
"Flute. Qin. Lute."
Re: Wooo!
Fortunately 'Qin' (after she prodded the peridexis for the spelling) narrowed the results significantly... though there were still tens of dozens of results.
"Is this something like what you're looking for?" Nita said, selecting a song practically at random and mentally crossing her fingers.
no subject
As she picked one of the songs, WangJi picked up the headphones to listen to the song. It didn't take long for him to smile faintly. "Yes, that is a song from home."
I couldn't resist. |D
"Looks like we have a winner, then."
She swiped the screen, looking for a 'related' playlist to see what would come up.
The third result was clicked, and began to play after the first song was concluded.
"And this?"
hehe
With this next song, he was most definitely surprised as it began to play through the headphones.
"What song is this?" And he was looking at the screen to read it.
Because he KNEW this song.
:3
She knew she would have mispronounced it if it weren't for the auto-translate, but she highlighted the relevant characters.
"Where do you know it from?"
lol
"'Unrestrained', yes, is what it says, but... no, it is not the same."
But it had really sounded like it was got a moment. It was almost painfully close. But... Even though the "ji" was wrong, it was almost the same naming as he had given to his.
"It sounded like a song from my world... called 'Forgetting Envies'. And I know it because it is mine."
no subject
And then, smiles.
"Well, I guess that means we can say you were almost a multiversally-famous composer..."
Slightly less funny in that it implied someone stole it somewhere down the line, but if the song were that close it still meant something, right?
no subject
He pointed to the characters in the song title.
"'Wu' and 'Ji'. My song has the characters 'Wang' and 'Xian' - 'Wang' from my name, WangJi, and 'Xian' from WuXian's name. The 'ji' is not mine, but it is pronounced the same and it is reversed."
no subject
"... You wrote a song for the two of you. That's- that's really sweet."
Enough to make her smile, less teasingly this time.
"Though, what does it mean for it to be reversed that way?"
no subject
He loved WuXian and he had for longer than WuXian thought that he had.
"I don't believe that it means anything different than mine."
Your turn to select tracks! =D
Nita paged down once more.
"Think you'll recognize any of the rest of these?"
He can look over her shoulder to point them out; she doesn't mind.
woo
He moved so that he could look at the list that was now on the screen, holding the headphones in his hands. The black rabbit leaned out slightly to sniff at them, but wouldn't go so far as to fall out of his travel pocket.
"This one. I have played this one before."
And he tapped one of them that had the name Flowing Water.
Re: woo
"I think we've found exactly what we were looking for. Maybe more than," she added, aiming another grin Lan WangJi's way.
"Apparently we can save music to our SCAs. Did you want to do that for these?"
no subject
"Yes, it seems we have." It made him happy that somehow the train had music from his world. How had he not realized this before?
"Really? You can? Yes, I would like to save them."
Then he could listen to them without having to play them himself, which was still nice, but sometimes it was nice to hear someone else playing.
Up to you how straightforwardly this works. XD
From there, and with a certain amount of help from her internal silent partner, Nita went about finding the plug-ins for the SCAs on the Music Car's ICPs.
"Here. Hold yours up like this."
Let's say it goes smoothly
When directed, he brought his arm up the same way that she did so the could get his SCA connected to it. The black rabbit tried to lean out again to look at his hand, but he stopped him with his free hand.
\o/
Just as calmly, though not in the exact same tone, she said, "There we go."
The last song they had listened to was the first cued-up to be transferred; so long as that worked, Nita could go back and add the others.

Mmm - heading towards wrap here?
Yeah, I think so

I picked EXACTLY the right time to check on Dreamwidth, apparently. XD
Woo!
Setup for wrap, I think.
Works for me
