He smiles at her shyly. "I suppose that is true. It is not a chance I ever expected to have."

[mistyday]

She takes his hand again. "I know a thing or two about second chances, and you gotta not let them go to waste."

[bythewaves]

He huffs softly, but lets her do so.

"I do not know if I know how." He admits quietly. Or if I am allowed. "But I suppose it does not harm to at least look, here."

[mistyday]

"I'll help you and I'm bettin' other people here will too." Then she grins. "Hey, since you were so nice and sang me a song, how about I teach you one of the songs I know?"

[bythewaves]

"Thank you."

He blinks and then smiles.

"I would love that."

[mistyday]

"Great! This song is sung by one of the greatest witches ever. She's got song magic like you and her name is Stevie Nicks, the White Witch. My magic don't work like hers, but I know every one of her songs by heart still."

And so, without further ado, Misty launches into her own rendition of Dreams by Fleetwood Mac. Her voice is untrained but still pretty enough - the important thing though is all the heart she puts into it.

[bythewaves]

She is untrained, her voice unrefined but sweet, but her heart is true, and Maglor smiles to hear her.

"That was well done." He smiles. "A very good song, sung well."

[mistyday]

She beams at the compliment. "Thank you! I wish you could hear Stevie sing it though, then you'd really feel it like you're supposed to. Right in your bones. "

[bythewaves]

"I will have to hope that I meet Stevie one day, then." He smiles at her pleasure.

"But you have a lovely voice, yourself."

[mistyday]

"Why thank you! I've been learning to play an instrument too. Maybe one day we can play together?"

[bythewaves]

"I would enjoy that, I think. What do you play?"

[mistyday]

"Makie's teaching me the shamisen. It's like... have you ever heard a banjo?"

[bythewaves]

"A ...banjo? I fear I have not - I would have to request a performance, I think!"

[mistyday]

"Don't know if we got a banjo player anywhere around here, but I can definitely play the shamisen for you, once I get a little more practice!"

[bythewaves]

"I would be honored to hear you, when you are ready." He assures her.

[mistyday]

She smiles. "I'll be sure to let you know."

Then she stands and stretches. "Time for more dancing! I'll see you around, right?"

[bythewaves]

"I will look forward to it."

He smiles and nods. "I thank you for your time, milady! Please enjoy yourself."

[mistyday]

"You too!"

And off she twirls away!
