haori | Cough 059 - [Accidental Video]

[The sun is setting in the distance amidst the drizzle of rain as Ukitake's normal song continues playing for him. All week, Rick Astley has been serenading him and anyone else who's been close enough to hear, and yet the Shinigami hasn't seemed to get too tired of it yet. Yes, it's possible he's insane. But when he approaches the pond out front with the intention of feeding the fish, the song ends.

Ukitake pauses and looks around, his hand held out mid-act. Where's...the music?

And then, softly, a new song starts up. Ukitake doesn't move at first, but as the singer tells his story, he quickly sprinkles the food over the water's surface and then slips his hands inside his haori sleeves.

If one watches closely, they can see that his expression saddens. What a note to end the week on. But is he sad because of the song itself and the man involved in all the pain? Or is it because the lyrics can apply to himself?

The feed times out after a few moments of watching Ukitake stand there in the rain, the sun slipping quickly behind the clouds and horizon.]

[... that is Adam Pascale.]

[Oh my God, that's RENT -- the original Broadway recording -- of One Song Glory -- ]

[... but the man looks so terribly sad, even with such a beautiful and wonderful song choice for the week.]

[She opens her mouth a little, to say something, before -- ]

You know -- he does write the song, at the end of the production. Roger.

[The voice gives him a small start, but he quickly realizes it's from the PCD. Smiling to Rachel, he then picks up the device and starts walking to the house.]

Roger-san is...the man singing?

Yes. It's from a musical in my world, called RENT. The character's name is Roger, but the man singing is named Adam Pascale. He's a brilliant artist.

The song is about writing a brilliant song before his death. He is a musician -- a guitarist.

So Roger-san achieves his goal at the end, you said? That's good. He sounds like he needs it.

He does. He finally achieves happiness.

[She pauses.]

I -- could sing it for you, if you wanted, the song he writes for Mimi --

[Rachel pauses before grimacing to herself. She will never say the following sentence again.]

Though Jesse could probably sing it better, it is intended for a male role.

That is very good.

Perhaps after this event? I would hate for even more musical interference to ruin the moment.

-- certainly.

I would like that.

I am Ukitake Jyuushirou.

Rachel Berry.

It's a pleasure, Rachel-san.

The pleasure is mine.
