[the local blue woman is confused by boy bands and well, she has to let the world know.]

I... Don't get the appeal of this, [Vague hand gesturing!] Boy band thing.

And I like music. So can anyone explain why this is so crazy?

Comments

[terribletwos]

most of the people i know who aren't crazy about them still like their music.

[riptidequeen]

Well... I guess I'm not like most people?

[terribletwos]

it's not really a bad thing. but you probably already knew that.

i don't really know why i like it. something about it seems familiar, i guess.

[riptidequeen]

Hmmm.

It's the familiarness that makes me not like it.

[terribletwos]

what do you mean/ is it familiar in a bad way/

[riptidequeen]

Basically, it reminds me of someone from back home.

[terribletwos]

you're friends with another singer/

[riptidequeen]

I have a lot of friends who sing, yes. But it's not the singing that is making it feel off.

[terribletwos]

what about the singing/

[riptidequeen]

It's not the singing that's the issue.

It's what it makes me feel that's the problem, it feels too much like Blue Diamond.

[terribletwos]

blue diamond/ is that a good thing or a bad thing/

[ It's hard to tell if this is painful nostalgia or just general annoyance with someone she dislikes back in her world. ]

[riptidequeen]

[A little of both, really.]

Blue Diamond can make people feel her feelings and this boy band thing just kind of... Reminds me of that.

[terribletwos]

feel her feelings/ you mean like share them/

[ Like what he's done with Sora before? ]

i don't think i've felt anything from their music. or i didn't notice anything like that.

[ Maybe he should pay more attention next time. If they can put their feelings into others, that could be a problem. ]

[riptidequeen]

More like force them to.

[So nothing like what he's done with Sora.]

Well that's good, I have and I don't like it.

[terribletwos]

[ That's debatable... ]

how did you pick up on it/

we should warn more people if there's a chance the music can influence them like that.

[ At least he's taking her concern seriously. ]

[riptidequeen]

I've been affected by it, the one from home. Not this thing.

[Somehow she doesn't believe him.]

A lot of people are into them though, so I doubt my weird hunch is going to change anyone's mind.

[terribletwos]

it won't hurt to try. right now they probably just think you're complaining about the band.

but if you have something you're really worried about, that's different. they might listen.

[riptidequeen]

I'll try, but I'm not going to expect much out of it.

[She's used to not being listened to.]

[terribletwos]

i'll back you up if it seems like they're not listening.
