Gilbert Blythe is sitting at a table in the middle of the bar, staring somewhat morosely at a frog.

The frog is in the middle of the table, staring back at Gil.

The frog is also, it should be noted, singing highlights from Andrew Lloyd Webber musicals.

Gil would probably welcome interruptions, and the frog loves an audience.



ETA: [OOC: Must sleep, and am running out of Lloyd Webber songs. Slowtime, if you like, just let me know. Good night!]

Well, Gil's mun is a librarian. They have hidden subversive streaks.

"I think everyone's friends are a bit eccentric at times," says Gil. His best friend is Anne Shirley, after all. "One of my friends wrote a series of sketches and stories about out hometown. We're a fairly eccentric bunch, too."

The frog looks at Mark, and is very clearly singing this latest song directly at him.

Mark blinks at the frog. Bloody perceptive frog.

He then smiles at Gil. "Makes life interesting, doesn't it? I mean, having ones friends keeping things interesting is always fun." He grins a bit.

"Yes," says Gil. "It really does. I don't know what I'd do with her -- them."

The frog finishes up with Joseph, bows, and, after a moment's deliberation, starts in on "Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again."

Mark cracks a smile. "Don't know what I'd do without my friends, either. We kick each others butts when we need to. Well, not that we listen to each other sometimes, but we still try."

He eyes the frog. Back to Phantom? Well... that's interesting. Especially after Joseph.

The frog is out Brightmaning Brightman right about now.

Also, he does not like having his song set questioned.

"I think the trying is what matters. If the message is important, it gets through eventually, I think."

Oh, far be it from Mark to question the songs of the Frog. It's still disconcerting, though.

"Very true. It just takes some people longer to understand things, sometimes." He smiles a bit ruefully. "I'm rather guilty of that more often than not."

Songs of the Frog, Slim Shady aka Ocsar thinks, would make an excellent title for a CD.

He switches terribly abruptly back to Joseph, and does a Vegas-worthy Elvis as he sings about Pharoah's Dreams.

"The people who care about you will keep telling you till you understand, I suspect," says Gil, with a small smile. "No matter how long it takes."

He's usually been the one doing the explaining. It's been worth it.

Mark is about to say something, but he has to boggle at the frog for a moment, and just facepalm.

"Yeah. My roommate and I do that to each other quite a lot. Sometimes we almost have to metaphorically beat it into each other's brains, but really, at the end of the day, we care about each other."
