[Guess who saw you Looking at the karaoke machine :)

Ebalon is not a party animal and has mostly kept to the background, observing, as he is wont to do. But it seems his little... friend... creature... thing (emotions are hard) is going through something, and so he steps forward and offers a smile.]

Too shy to sing?

[mooninthewater]

[ Caught!!! ]

Oh! I- [ He wants to say "no," but he supposes that no matter how he tries to spin it, it is technically shyness that is forcing him to stop singing. But who wants to admit that they're shy!! Certainly not a 19-year-old gamer, that's for fucking sure. ] I just... I'm not very good at it. But I should be. [ And it's upsetting. ]

[Ebalon is pretty sure — like, from what he's observed and nothing more, as karaoke machines don't exist on Elrios womp womp — that one does not have to be good at singing to pick up a microphone and go for it. There have been some garbage singing voices tonight, and no one has batted an eyelash. Is it the liquor, or just the expectation that not everyone will be perfect?

Ah, well. Whatever the answer is, he does not care to decipher it.]

Are you not? You have quite the pleasant speaking voice, so I'm shocked to hear.

[mooninthewater]

You think so? [ If Clarke also compliments his voice, he might just start questioning if maybe Aegir have this kind of effect on people in general. Because... y'all... ]

I-... I don't think so, I guess. I've never really had the courage to try. Aegir are known to be excellent singers. The Aegirian language is even entirely melodic. But I did not grow up around them, and I've always been a bit ashamed to try...

[ Expectations and all that. Gross. ]

However, I have a friend on the ship who would like to hear me try, and... I want to. But I can't.

[selenokinesis]

You can't? Why is that?

[Fear, paranoia, something else? Ebalon makes the assumption that it's one of those, and to be honest, he's already made an ass of himself with karaoke before. Forced karaoke, but still — so perhaps his next statement may come as a shock, but he makes the offer anyway. Gentle encouragement is warranted.]

Would you like me to sing with you?

[mooninthewater]

… I guess pressure? If I've got the means of singing well, [ The voice — so similar to Venti's who's a fucking bard, the race — known for their siren-esque songs, the Seaborn blood — known to be rallied by hypnotic vocalizations… ] and then if I don't…

Ehehe, I guess that's a silly thought, though. Y-you don't have to do that for me, anyway. I would probably freeze up and leave you hanging…
