She's great. I'm going to show you her singing anyway. 

Uh- you sure? [Looks at him hesitantly and slowly lets her hands rest on the keys slightly, her heart beating increasing as she tries to think of how she can begin and she begins by playing a very simplistic tune]

I- [laughs] I will make no comment. 

Dear Merlin

#herbert

[emmavanity-mmm]

She can. She has an angelic voice. Maybe if you ask nicely she'd sing you something.

I- Well it's just music. I can't see how that would hurt but I doubt I'd be able to keep up with you anymore. 

I wasn't suggesting it was complex. I can obviously see how many notes are going through it by the way you're playing. 

Dear Merlin

#herbert

[emmavanity-mmm]

We were. [hesitantly thinks about putting her hands on the keys  but decides against it.] You're the only person I can really duet with. Although Liz and I have some great songs recorded of her singing and me on the Harp. 

[smiles] Very lightly and fluffy. 

Dear Merlin

#herbert

[emmavanity-mmm]

Maybe we shouldn't dance to it but I'd love to hear it. 

[turns around the face the piano as well and lets her hand rest on his leg nonchalantly] 

I haven't heard you at the piano in a while.

Dear Merlin

#herbert

[emmavanity-mmm]

Well my mother would go for the slower one, since it is for her events. Is it something my father and her could make up a routine for? 

Why wouldn't it be the best idea? [letting her voice rise a little bit and then looking away from him]

[lets go of him and goes to sit on the piano seat then turning her eyes towards him again]

Dear Merlin

#herbert

[emmavanity-mmm]

It would probably be for the best...

[smiles a bit because he said please] Right, well. 

Yeah... what else have you been working on? 

Dear Merlin

#herbert

[emmavanity-mmm]

Y-your welcome. 

That's what... friends are for. 

Maybe... I should go. [says quietly]

Dear Merlin

#herbert

[emmavanity-mmm]

I want you. 

If she does... I'll tell you. We might have to meet up in public... to discuss what my mother wants from you. She's always is hosting balls... I'm sure she'd love to have your music during them. 

Dear Merlin

#herbert

[emmavanity-mmm]

Yes that's all. What else would you want...? [says softly and nods her head at him slightly]

I- [mulls over that] Okay. That actually sounds good. Should I write a proposal or do you want to handle this by yourself? 

I

I'm sure you're great at handling things by yourself. 

Dear Merlin

#herbert

[emmavanity-mmm]

Keep you safe. [Emma murmurs honestly] 

I don't think she'd be able to give you what you want. I think that's more my fathers department... Maybe Liz's father could buy? We can ask Liz if her family has a taste for music... 

Dear Merlin

#herbert

[emmavanity-mmm]

I guess I should then. I might not want to though. I am thinking about keeping you for myself. 

Yes... true. [smiles]

I-I'm sure you deserve her. 

Do you want me to ask my mother... or do you want this not to include my family? 

Dear Merlin

#herbert

[emmavanity-mmm]

She sounds flawless. 

Is that what you want if we had enough money in the world? Your own concert hall?

[smiles] And what makes you deserve her? 

I was under the impression that you've already are selling this piece? 

Dear Merlin

#herbert

[emmavanity-mmm]

Let's hope. 

I never do. There is one boy that I'm quite attracted to and simply dancing with another boy won't really stop that. 

I'm not sure if I'm going to enjoy them. [smirks slightly] 

A gazillon galleons. [says seriously] 

If you tell me what you need it for. 

Dear Merlin

#herbert

[emmavanity-mmm]

You're clearly just too passionate about music without having a foundation voice as a conductor and the music almost seems generic without the usual feeling I get to hear in music. I would want to be wow'd not just dancing. Honestly I can barely hear the music because it blurs into the background. It just makes me focus on my dancing partner.... and we can't have that. 

[whispers] How can I not? It's hard forgetting what you say. 

Formal balls and waltzes? It's hard not to enjoy that. I would certainly agree. [lets her hand hold onto his a bit tighter]

So- [holds her breath for a second] you're selling these? How much for? [gulps slightly]

Dear Merlin

#herbert

[emmavanity-mmm]

[blushes]

I guess that you might know a bit of something Mister Herbert, it be a crime to punish talent like this so young even if you have some obvious flaws.

[smiles at him and whispers back] Because I pay attention to you. I've been trying a bit harder with music... I'll remember this is from the 1800's now. 

[goes back to her other voice] So, Mr. Herbert... Since this is clearly from the 1800's and you weren't around then, what inspired you to write this? Your love for Merlin? 

Dear Merlin

#herbert

[emmavanity-mmm]

Then you're an idiot. 

I swear to merlin if I hear even the slightest hint of a rumor that you've done the tinniest thing to upset my Liz then I'll do the most horrible thing I can think of. 

I know you think you have friends in high places but trust me I have them in higher. Don't fuck this up. 

[walks away]

Prefecting rounds are easier today. . .

Ask Madam Pomfrey, or even Liz she’s the one who kept me company when I couldn’t even move after being kicked down a staircase.

Uhuh. Sure.

… Fair enough. Well it looks like I was mistaken about you. I’m sorry you’re convinced I’m the bad guy here. Really I’m sorry.

The fact that you just stated something that was incredibly untrue.

… Whatever you say. I don’t believe it.

#i don't know what you want from me liv #I will just stop playing emma #i don't even want to rp anymore #how the fuck am I suppose to want to when it makes you so fucking upset at me #what the fuck am I suppose to do #this is my character #she's protective of her best friend #i'm sorry you're in a bad mood but everytime you blame #that's what actually hurts #as it's always does #as you fucking know #and i get so fed up with everything and who am I suppose to complain to? #if you're happy don't let a character ruining your day #expecially emma #because you've been treating her like shit from not only max but even your fucking children #how much am I supose to take? #I'm sorry Emma said some rude things to Max but she clearly doesn't trust him and she is having trouble trust guys clearly #i fucking hate this #i don't want to even play emma #i can't believe you've gotten me to that point #fucking shit.

[emmavanity-mmm]

Wait what?

I don't believe you.

Jason Herbert? [laughs] Trust me he's not a threat and don't you dare say that I didn't notice, I was watching it very carefully and I actually know Jason, unlike you. So when I say he would never do that to her, I know what I'm talking about. 

The kid I read about in books was amazing, you're just something I wish I never met and would have never gone here. 

How dare you say I don't know her, what gives you that fucking right? 

She doesn't. You just think she does. She's good at that you prick!

Prefecting rounds are easier today. . .

  You weren’t the one who ended up given two weeks in the Hospital Ward. Thanks a lot for that one. It’s appreciated.

Yes she is perfect but I know what’s happened to her in the past and I refuse to let that ever happen to her again and if you hadn’t been so wrapped up you would’ve noticed the danger - not I posed. But Jason Herbert to her. Things could’ve gotten severely out of hand.

You obviously don’t know me. Which isn’t surprising since you only see the kid you read about in books. I won’t mess it up because unlike some trust and promises mean a lot to me.

Well obviously you don’t know your best friend as well as I’ve gotten to know her in less time than you’ve had because news flash. She already likes me and I like her.
