Let the games begin!
[several days late, as has been the trend lately, the Shuffle's transmission plays for the Fleet.
...or, it tries anyway. the music doesn't even make it--just a punch of static with sad, scattered pieces of musical notes trying to struggle their way through.
when Diamond's voice is finally heard, it's only intelligible in three little bites.]
--Three disappearing from-- ... --new faces, so-- ... --Captain Halliwell--...
[and then the music blends strangely with other sounds, like someone flipping idly through broken radio stations. it takes some time for anything to come in clear, and every frequency turns up the same interference. it isn't until several minutes later that one signal suddenly stutters into clarity, and music begins to play.
wherever you are, they are playing your song! and if there are multiple people in the room, maybe the speakers nearest to each person are playing different songs, each specific to the closest passenger. and after the signal connects, the speakers will continue to play whatever song they started with, even if different passengers move toward or away from them, and will only play something else when the controls are messed around with. and the signals and machinery will continue to behave in this way sporadically, all through the month.]
ooc: the musical madness has begun! feel free to use this post as a mingle for interactions relating to shuffle day and the ensuing musical chaos. if you have any questions, please post them to the January ooc post!

voice;
[Direct answers are so lame!]
Besides, it's not like I have much use for that stuff anyway. Not when a good amount of fire or a lightning bolt works just as well!
[And he's so not just saying this because he is terrible at angel magic. Nope]
voice;
Now that I think about it, I've barely seen you use any of the angel magic.
voice;
Why would I need to? I can handle myself just fine without it.
[...Okay that came out a touch more defensive than he meant to]
voice;
It's just something I noticed. It's not a big deal. [ that might sound a wee bit apologetic. ]
voice;
...Whatever.
No- [Wait. No. That's not what he wanted to say. Ugh. Why is socializing so hard?]
[There's a beat before he speaks]
I just...don't like it that much. And I'm not...great at it anyway so...whatever. I don't need it.
voice;
There's nothing wrong with that. If you don't do that magic because you don't want to, then that's a good enough reason.
Besides, the magic you do already is cool enough.
