Empire Records and Bidet [6/4]

Nadia opened Empire for the first time in much too long, especially considering the fact that she kept meaning to ask for extra hours.

Oh well. She settled in behind the counter to look up local ghost stories on Lucas' laptop.

Today's music: Smash Mouth

River still had a vivid memory of her previous evening at Empire Records, and after a day in town she decided to return. Peeking inside, she heard that the music this time was different, but still danceable. She saw Nadia and recognised her from school, so walking up to the counter with a big smile, River said: "Hello, what music is this?"

Nadia smiled at River. "It's a band called Smash Mouth. They're pretty fun."

"Yes, they are. You have more music, though. Anything else you recommend?" River eyed the CD covers around the place.

"Moonbabies. And Death Cab for Cutie. And the Weakerthans." Nadia grinned. "And if you like dancing, the trance section has a lot of good stuff, like DJ Icey or Robert Miles."

River nodded. "I haven't heard any of them. I don't think they were in the historical records of my time. Can you play something for me?"

Nadia shrugged. "I guess," She headed into the store and grabbed a handful of CDs. "We have some listening stations you can play them in, or we could use the store stereo."

River nodded. "I can listen on my own." She picked up the CD's and headed for the listening stations, then turned around again. "You have live music too sometimes, don't you? Not just recorded?"

"Every now and then my boss' friend's band comes by, and they sometimes play."

River nodded. "Will that happen anytime soon?"

"No idea. Marc is pretty unpredictable. But I'll let you know if I hear anything about it, if you want."

A wide grin spread on River's face. "I'd love that." She added: "Are there any bands here in the town by the way?"

"Not that I know of. But a bunch of us from the fifth floor were talking about starting one."

River looked very exited. "Can I join you?"

"If we ever do more than talk about it, sure. Well, I'd have to ask the others, but I'm sure they wouldn't mind. We really have only been messing around, though." Nadia looked at River for a moment. "I play guitar sometimes up on the roof, and so does Pip. Demyx has a sitar he plays. You should come up sometime."

"I sing sometimes," River said. "Or I used to when I was little. It would be fun to join you."

"Cool. Like I said, I'm on the roof pretty often, when I'm not working until midnight or anything. Come on up some time."

"I will," River said, and turned towards the listening stations again. Hopefully she'd find something she liked.
