Unrelenting Jukebox
A faint slapping sound could be heard as Unrelenting Jukebox hit out the drum beat on his thighs as he zoned out and looked at nothing, letting his worries wash away. A feminine voice broke him out of his comfortable daze, shaking his head and blinking he turned his head to the flying player. Her tone of voice and entrance was grandiose and Jukebox felt compelled to compete.
"Greetings, Absinthe Blue, I am grateful that a majestic angel of the skies such as you decided that this mere joke character was worthy to be in your presence~” with and elaborate bow Jukebox had to throw his bodyweight backwards to avoid falling off the roof.
“As for the reason for my lack of actions? Well, as I said earlier, I am a joke character. My Avatar abilities serve little to no purpose. I can turn explosions into fireworks and music spontaneously plays from me with no will of my own. In fact, some very new players mistake me for some rare event character, heh... sent a few on stupid goose chase quests... can’t get away with that anymore. In fact I only made it to level 3 thanks to the wondrous thing that is called fall damage~” a wide grin and waggled his fingers as if gravity was somehow magic. As the song faded
Soundtrack of Life changed track and continued causing Jukebox to sigh
“It sometimes even fits the situation... Regardless I can do little to nothing on my own, so why not try to enjoy myself? I don’t have a car to go on a road trip with and I haven’t been blessed with the ability to fly like you, so why not sit down and enjoy the moment? I’m a very cruise-y person in here~” the content smile on his face was corrupted by the slight tinge of green jealousy. Suddenly Jukebox was grabbed from behind and pulled into a bone-crushing hug, knocking the wind from his lungs. Of course it was Bel, who else could it be? Gasping for breath Jukebox responds.
“Hey, Blue Bel~! Whew, did you do something to your hair? Since, well, you did just take my breath away” smiling at his own bad joke he squirmed a bit in her Kingly grip and escaped with an exaggerated spin.
“Of course I completed the duties, however I did take a nasty knock to my head in performing my them... I could use a kiss to make it better~” as Bel explained the proposed trip to the movie theater a wry grin split Jukebox’s face.
“Is this another excuse for you to make me cling in fear during another scary movie? Well, I’m sure I’ll survive another trip, you didn’t hit me or anything. Should I meet you there?” bites his lip nervously as Bel invites Absinthe as well
Why doesn’t she make me wear a sign that says “Hey, this guy is Jukebox”?!
