Joey blinked for a couple of seconds, speechless, and absolutely in awe of the girl – his only friend in the castle –. “Ah…” He smiled nervously, throwing two thumbs up. “Ghost– Ghost…tastic? Ah, boa pra caramba, Scobie.” From behind, he brought round a humble bouquet of flowers, extending it to Scobie with a small chuckle. “For you.”

               Out came an involuntary, “ eeeee. ” Hands flung up to shield her flushed cheeks and grin. “ Ohhh no, JoJo, you’re too kind. ” Gingerly, she accepted the bouquet and smelt the flowers. “ They’re so lovely!! Ah, ob... obrigado, cadeira?? ” Her Portuguese was hesitant, and unfortunately she’d confused what translated to ‘ chair ’ for a term of endearment.

“I’m sorry I couldn’t watch it, but you sounded I N S A N E. Those drums sets were mindblowing!” Dmitri exclaimed, the extra excitement supplied by the half-full cup of firewhiskey in his hand. “The guitar was raw…so wow.” He continued. “You guys have a STROKES meets THE BLACK KEYS meets ARCTIC MONKEYS vibe, I don’t know if you know muggle music, but they’re a few of the greatest indie rock bands of all time. The bassist needs a new sound, though. I have a muggle bass I could lend him.” 

               “ It’s  g r o o v y,  you listened to our set and that’s MORE than I ever expected of anyone to do for us, ” Scobie admitted, lips pulling into a smile from ear to ear at his words. Still, it amazed her that people liked the songs she wrote and sung. Norbert being uber likeable was a given in Scobie’s mind, but compliments still  ( and would likely always ) turn her into a babbling mess. “ Oh my gosh, no way. I freaking  l o v e  all those bands!! Especially The Black Keys, they’re like, FAVES, ” she gushed. “ You’re too rad, Dmitri. Like, WAY OUT OF THIS WORLD levels of excellent. You... you should TOTALLY jam with us sometime?? ”

“One could argue those beats were a little off.” Ryder smiled, picking on her purposefully. “You should tell your drummer that they need a little more practice. I’m sure it would be fine, no one’s perfect.” Ryder poured her a drink, one arm casually over her shoulder. “You know I’m kidding. It was amazing, as always. That bassist is kinda hot.” He mused. “But that v o c a l i s t…. DAMN.”

                “ Is that so?? ” She descended into a peel of bashful giggles, and gave Ryder a fond shake of her head. “ SOMEONE should tell that Bellamy boy he’s a  t o t a l  goober, he is, even with those smooth lines and woo-you smiles. ” Scobie accepted the drink and chimed a thank you, patting his cheek twice. “ But a goober with a heart of gold and a BEAUTIFUL ability to keep my cup FULL, at all times. To you, Ryder, my treasured friend, ” she held out her cup for cheers.

“You were fantastic – you and all of Martian Mondays. Representing us fifth years proudly, I see!! Now, let me ask, when you guys make it big will you remember us little people who helped see you through, or will you completely forget about us all??” Jane teased, hugging Scobie, “Did RJ get to you in time, by the way?? She looked REALLY confused this time, and kept asking random people if they were you.”

            “ No other way to represent the SQUAD, aye, my  c o m r a d e ?? ” She countered in her thick Scottish drawl, squeezing Jane affectionately for a split second before releasing. “ Make it big?? ” Scobie snorted, amused light flickering in her eyes. “ We’d just have to be one of those bands with a HUGE posse, wouldn’t we?? ” She bopped her head, laughing, “ j u s t  in time, actually. We’ve met, like, three times now. RJ doesn’t have the best memory, does she?? ”

“As per fucking usual, you lot sounded amazing. I can’t wait to hear you all on the radio and all that jazz, you should get one of those muggle Soundclouds I keep hearing about,” Patrick smiled down at Scobie, thoroughly amazed, “I didn’t even KNOW Norbert could do that?? Bloody hell.”

               “ Not nearly as AMAZING as the sound of your listening ta’ us... sounded?? Jesus, sound like a right dafty, don’t I?? But I meant it, Pat. You’re a PRINCE among men, cheers for supporting. Aye, Norbs never ceases to shock an’ awe, does he, that  b r i l l i a n t  lad, ” warmth flickered in her brown eyes. “ Shall I get you a drink, then?? I definitely owe ya’ one. ”

           “ A ROUND OF THUNDEROUS APPLAUSE for my spookster in crime, the boy all the aliens are dying to abduct, my  G h o u l  K i n g,  the U.F. to my O, the one, the only: Mister Norbert Kruegers. We’re the Martian Mondays, thank you millions, it’s been a one  h o w l  of a set!! ” Post clearing off the make-shift stage, Scobie caught the first person she could. “ Okay, how’d we sound?? ”
