fierybluebird | With a Smile and A Song....

[So while crazy shit and drama goes down, Marco who can never be called undramatic, has amped that drama up to twelve. And he is giving rooftop performances of booming song! Aww, isn't that nice of him? Too bad it is literally at the crack of dawn on a Sunday.]

♫Oh what a beautiful morning!!
Oh what a beautiful day!
I've got a beautiful feeling,
Everything's going my way~!♫

[And without switching a beat he switches right into something else.]

♫ Love lifts us up where we belong!
Where eagles fly! On a mountain high!♫

[Annnnd another.]

♫Come fly with me, let's fly, let's fly away!
If you can use some exotic booze,
There's a bar in far Bombay!
Come fly with me, let's fly, let's fly away!

[And with that he dances about on the rooftop of CH3, showing off his recently returned flag and the stack of booze bottles with white flowers that he made a memorial. Well, he certainly seems like he's in a good mood at least.]

PACK UP LET'S FLY AWAAAAAY!!!!

[And loud. So loud. It's too early for this. Someone shut him up.]

Ah, I need something stronger to show my love! [No. Really. He Does not.] Would that I could sing flowers everywhere -- AH! Or perhaps-? [He cheerfully whistles to try to get the birds to join him, and even the birds join in a few rounds of telling him to shut the heck up, because he's going to scare the worms.] No one understands Spring like a trapped phoenix. [Woe is him.]

I want you to get drunk. Maybe then you'll stop being so loud.

[Crossing his arms, pay no mind to his bandaged right shoulder. He eyes the flag with a frown.]

Glad to see it back in place without having to do it myself.

It takes a lot to get me drunk. [GRINS!] And if I remember correctly, I'm a loud drunk.

Ah?

[Bows his head, though he is still smiling.] Thank you. At the time, I thought it was the Malnosso, but I appreciate it.

It was the Malnosso, turning someone into an idiot unable to remember his own family crest.

[Rubs the back of his neck.] Ah, kind of. It was certainly them, eh, but I really believed that other emblem was the real flag. [And he still has the scar of it on his neck by the way.]

[His eyes harden at the next part, though he looks away.]

I am glad they saw fit to return my real tattoo though, eh. Especially since I was the fool who removed it in the first place.

At least it makes for an interesting tattoo.

[Ikki comes closer and pats Marco's shoulder.]

If they hadn't we would have just get it back either way. I'm just glad nothing worse happened, are things with Robin well?

Aye. [Grins!] Thanks Ikki.

[LIGHT MAN DID YOU LEARN NOTHING?! His grin goes from a grin, to a flat-out overly cheerful BEAM OF JOY AND DELIGHT.] Better than ever.

It's Spring! And I'm in love! And I have a mate! A mate. [Chirps and whistles, bragging in bird mode all over again.]

I have the feeling we should keep you away from her during this time though.

[And he has a deja vù feeling now. Haven't they had this conversation before?]

What? Why?!

[He looks like a four year old you just ripped his best friend puppy away from.]

It feels dangerous for her. You don't seem more responsible at the moment than an excited four years old and we don't want her to end hurt.

Dangerous... I would never hurt Robin.

I'm just going to serenade her and tell her how much I love her.

Don't you do that normally already?

Not often enough. What if she goes home tomorrow and I don't get to tell her today or sing it to her?

Do you really think doing so today is going to make you feel better if she leaves tomorrow? Won't you regret not having told her so tomorrow as well?

No, as long as I make the most of every moment I have, that's enough.

Then you should take the habit of calling her every morning first thing in the day and then at night before bed. You can serenade and tell her how much she means to you then and it won't matter if she leaves the next day.

[Which is pretty much what Ikki does with Kotomi, except he doesn't serenade her.]

You don't think that would be too much?

[Ikki. Ikki. Why are you proving Marco's craziness to actually be normal intensity for phoenixes? No good can come of this.]

Come on, come on, let's go serenade them together, eh!

No, too much probably would be to call her four times a day regardless of the time you spend with her.

[Which is what he does. He knows he overdoes it. He doesn't give a damn and it's basically the only way he actually shows how much he loves her. And it makes her so happy. Besides, he can't just stop now, Kotomi likes routine if he told her that he was going to call her less often she would think he doesn't love her anymore or something.]

I don't serenade. Go serenade your woman on your own.

[Arms crossed again. He will be here, keeping pops some company. Metaphorically.]

Aye.

No, it's not as much fun alone! Come on, we can be phoenix bros together! And make our ladies swoon.

[Ikki that is too cute. Don't let Marco know. He will think it's normal and perfectly acceptable behavior.]

I said no.

[And it's final, he even sits down in front of the memorial to prove the point. And he's not your phoenix bro.]

[Sits down with him.]

We can get drinks after.

Okay, I'll wait for you here.

[HE'S NOT GOING.]

You really refuse to come sing, eh?

I thought that was clear since my first negation.

You need to learn to have fun! It'll be good for you!
