Vocal practices (open)

[Alexandra Patterson]

Alex had woken up early and decided to go to the auditorium to practice her singing and guitar playing. She didn't want to wake any of her roommates with her singing so the auditorium seemed to be a good place to go. For once she didn't feel like getting all dolled up so she just grabbed her guitar and laptop and head off in her natural state, a view many people haven't seen her in. So here she with in her natural black hair out and messy and in a tank top and pajama shorts sitting on the stage singing and strumming her guitar wrap up in her own little world. It had been awhile since she got a chance to practice and she was enjoying ever minute of it. She had set up her laptop camera to record her so she could look back over it when she was done. She always filmed her practice so she could make her own critiques to whatever she was doing later. So with that set up she went threw a few vocal warm ups and then started singing Trust issues by Drake. When she was done singing she looked up thinking she heard a noise.

[Maud A. Yancey]

A door opened and closed from the back of the auditorium, a figure momentarily illuminated by the flourescent lights from the hall way. She wore jeans that were splattered with paint (or possibly blood. Only the flying spaghetti monster knows) and a navy shirt looked far too big for even a guy that hun off one skinny shoulder, her hair tied back in a lazy pony tail. But obviously... She didn't gve a damn.

Maud blinks when she sees the girl sitting on the stage. Damn. She'd have to hide in the gym or something if she wanted to do any research now. She hugged her Macbook under her arm, some papers sticking out from the closed screen. " Oh... Uhm..." she starts awkwardly, but notices how pretty the girl was... She looked alot like someone she'd had a crush on back in Colorado. She pauses than tries again," Could I... I dunno... Join you? I promise I won't disturb you.. Y-you sing really well too." Maud manages to squeak, Probably my best first impression as of yet...

[Alexandra Patterson]

"Come on you can do it" Alex stated with a smirk about the girl not being able to construct a complete sentence. "Thanks I know I do". Modesty was definitely an area she lacked in. Alex bite her lip and looked the girl over a moment before she answered her request to join her. She really needed to practice but she guess she could use the company. Plus she was in a good mood this morning. "Eh why not. Come on get up here". When the girl got up to the stage she gave her a friendly smile. "My government name is Alexandra but please call me Alex. What's your name pretty lady? Oh and are you a singer yourself"?

[Maud A. Yancey]

" I'm Maud, but everyone calls me Yancey cuz that way I don't sound like some kind of nun," she giggles slightly at the Alex's bluntness, quickly seeming to pop out of her shell and skipping to the stage," But no... I can't sing... At least... I don't think so," she shrugs and sits on the platform a few feet away from Alex, popping open her laptop and lying on her back so that he legs hung off the edge. Almost immediately, 15 to 20 windows began to pop up on the screen. She glances at Alex and flashes an anxty but cute smile," And what about you? Do you sing as a hobby or as a- uh-" she flails her hands as she searches for a word," job thingy?"

[Alexandra Patterson]

"You're right the name Maud reminds me of the nun from sister act. Wait or maybe it's the sound of music". Her finger automatically started to strum the song Doe, Ray,Me from the movie . One of her favorite besides sixteen going on seventeen. "A little bit of both. I'm going to be actor ,like my mom, slash rockstar goddess. Just give it five years and you will see my face everywhere. Now you can say you knew me before I was famous". Alex smirked at the girl who was a few sitting a few feet away from her. "You can come closer I don't bite. Unless you know you're into that kind of stuff" she said with a flirty wink.

[Maud A. Yancey]

Maud blushes but rolls her eyes and sticks out her tongue," Ah ok, 'I knew Alex before it was cool', that'll be my hipster claim," She laughs lightly and gives Alex a thumbs up, wiggling her way closer.

She smacks the back of her head on the stage and whines like a hurt puppy," God Doughnut~" before relaxing more slowly and looking at her computer intently as some black and white pictures pop up," My cousin, Brandon, he's an R&B artist or whatever, guess what his stage name is?" Maud flashes a devious smile... Yancey/Maud was definitely not much of a nun type, more of a future-world-conquerer...

[Alexandra Patterson]

"What's his stage name? And more importantly what are you up to on that computer missy". Alex looked at the laptop trying to find out.

[Maud A. Yancey]

" R&Beast," She laughs and smirks slyly when Alex peeks over her shoulder," Ya really wanna know? Hmm..." Maud suddenly turns off the screen," Well if I tell you, what do I get?" She grins devilishly

[Alexandra Patterson]

"I have to say it sucks so bad it's awesome". Alex parted her hair over her shoulder and gave the girl the most flirty look. "That depends what do you want sweetheart?" she said suggestively with her on devilish grin. Her flirting was never switch off even in the morning.

[Maud A. Yancey]

Maud rolls her eyes playfully, once again blushing (God damn that was a weakness of hers)," Hmm... Well... If you're a wallflower like me, you know people who know people who know people and so on.." She trails off and tilts her head with a slight smirk that wavered," On a scale from one to ten, how compatible are Raylaigh Hawthorne and Naozumi Makguchi and what would you roughly estimate the time of their relationship to last?" Maud sways slighty

[Alexandra Patterson]

Maud was definitely making a good first impression on her so far. The girl was funny and now she was engaging Alex in a little gossip. Gossip was one of her favorite pastime after all so talking to about it give you cool points with her. "Not really much of a wallflower but I do make it my business to know everyone and everything. Oh so that's why Nao ran out like that" she thought out loud. "He gay and has the hots for Ray". This was something she didn't know at the time of kissing him at the spin the bottle party. "Hm Ray and Nao seem like really sweet guys". She calculated it in her head for a second. "I'll give them seven point five and give them at the most a year and three months. They seem like they would be cute together but nothing last forever. I don't see them making it past highschool sweethearts".

[Maud A. Yancey]

" Hmm..." Maud taps her lip and squints,"... Ok! That's good enough for me!" She turns on the screen again," I'm kinda a history nutcase, especially when it comes to the Second World War and the Nazi's-" she quickly waves her hands,"-but I don't agree with their destructive actions. I swear to the flying spaghetti monster i'm not a neo-nazi! I just want to learn more about their mindset..." She admits softly, rubbing the back of her head and leaning back," I've basically evaluated all the major party leaders from Goebels to Hitler to Himmler and Mengele..." Maud admits with a tiny smile... She was very passionate about the 'dark side' of history, but people sometimes found that disturbing and scary...

[Alexandra Patterson]

"Well yeah I figure otherwise you wouldn't be talking to me". Alex was mix with white but she was sure it was pretty it was obvious she was also black to. She bite her lip not sure how to take this. "Well that's definitely weird but not a bad oh my you're crazy weird. It's more like huh you are one interesting girl Maud Yancey". She shrugged. "We all have weird and different things we are into. You know I'm surprised I haven't know of you sooner". She would have thought a girl like Maud would of shown up on her radar before.

[Maud A. Yancey]

Maud just smiles deviously and shrugs,"... I want to know the psychology of evil," she hums softly," I guess... I just was amazed at how one man could seduce a nation despite not having the attributes of a leader other than havig a strong speaking voice..." She hums and sways more, staring into space and squinting,"... I'm just sick of the good guys' stories,"

Maud suddenly starts and chirps," Ever heard 'Blow Up' by J Cole?"

[Alexandra Patterson]

Alex nodded in agreement. "Me myself i'm more interested in the anti-hero's. Thats why superheros like wolverine or like those heroes for hire are my favorite movies".

"Yes I have. I love J Cole. Why you want me to sing it"?
