so maybe apollo's hanging with klaver at a music festival and he's done with his set and its night so he's like 'hey, there's that new dj terran that became a sensation over night! shall we go and see forehead' even though apollo isnt really a techno person he didnt want to concede to klaver so he agrees reluctantly
so he drags him along and they go to the way cool space and shit dj set and clay is dropping some seriously ill beats and apollo is like 'wowowowow i didnt know i liked this kind of music until now plus he's so entertaining i meAN LOOK AT THE LIGHT FINGERS GLOVES THEY'RE SO COOL!'
so afterwards klaver also really was surprised at the dj's talent and is like 'we should go talk to him!' even though apollo is like 'n-no thats ok!' but klaver is always feeling sociable so they do anyway.
klaver flashes everyone (his backstage pass) and goes up to clay and is like 'hey good show! though i havent heard of you since last week!' and clay is like 'wow klavier gavin! its an honor! say, im working on this remix album and i really wanted to remix guilty love, do you think we could work together?' and klavier is all 'ja thats a good idea! actually my friend forehead here can take care of all the legal copyright paper work junk cause he's a laywer and we can jam and make sweet music and such! he really liked your set too!'
apollo is tsun as fuck as usual to klav and he's like 'wow dont call me that infront of someone that i've never met, im apollo yo!' and clay is like 'aw ok im clay! how do you know klaver gavin like he's soooooo coooooooool!'
apollo laughs sarcastically for about 67 minutes and tells him about how he's a prosecutor in his sunlight hours and that they battle it out in court, and clay is like 'whoa no way that's way super cool music and law is such an unlikely combo, like id be a full time dj astronaut if i could pull two jobs!' and apollo and clay are just hitting it off like it's nobody's business even though it might just be apollo being keen on showing how much of a loser klaver can be underneath his rocker boy bod.
and klav feels kinda of jealous?? granted he's almost always a little jealous if apollo isnt paying attention to him but this guy more than usual for whatever reason he doesnt really know, but that's maybe a coincidence whateverrrr
so they all keep talking and set up something for the near future to record together and make sweet sweet music together
fast forward to a little before recording, klav comes to get apollo since he's doing all the paperwork and legal stuff and is like ' hey thanks for doing this even though i kinda forced you into doing so!' and apollo's like 'yeah yeah but hey it gets me out of the office' and they both go to wherever they record stuff in sunny japanifornia
so they meet clay there and they start to record and things sound way sick and guilty love remix ft dj terran is going to be the hit of the summer. apollo is doing paperwork when they take a break and klav decides to take a quick leave for something idk maybe a touch up tan or a sandwich or german achtung babies but none the less he wasnt there
clay is like 'hey apollo you wanna see what we have so far you seemed really focused on papers!' and apollo is like 'ok, yeah, i need a break from intense copyright permission law' and clay plays what they have and starts to experiment around with what they have already for shits and giggles, and apollo is really fascinated by it (or the boredom of paperwork amplified how interesting turn tables were) and asks 'can you show me how this whole dj turntable thingy works?'
clay then shows him and talks about all of the basics and just some of the nuances of dj-ing, even though apollo doesnt even understand a quarter of what he's saying, clay is just explaining it to him with so much love and passion in his voice, that he pays attention to everything he's saying and asks a lot of questions and wow this guy is really passionate about what he does thats kind thats really cute and they keep talking a lot wow what apollo was like ' i feel like that ive known this kid my whole life, even though i've only talked to him a few times, but us talking like this, i cant explain but i feel like we can talk forever and ever!'
klavier comes back before his thought process goes much further and they finish the recording parts for the day as apollo went back to paper work, but now observing the dj in the booth every once and a while as he and klav work together.
klavier takes apollo home, and thanks him for getting all of the paper work together for them, since he finished all of it in one day. apollo decides to go on a limb and ask if he could come back to the studio to see them finish recording the song. klavier isnt sure how to take this, but somewhere his heart is like 'wow, apollo wants to go somewhere with you without you prompting him to go with any sort of incentive!', and klavier just smiles really big and says 'of course!', and kisses apollos hand (because he can and has gotten away with that) before waving bye to him
apollo isnt too phased by this, even though this goodbye kiss lasted a little longer than usual, it lingered on his hand. though he was excited to talk to the cool dj once again the next day.
the next day klavier and clay are working while apollo is just listening to them work and clay is like 'so im going to another show tonight, you two should come with me!' and klavier cant go because of some other musical obligation though apollo agrees because what else does he have to to do tonight, people dont invite them places what a nerd.
so they show up at this club where apollo feels kind of out of place since there are a bunch of raver kids around, especially clay. wow, is this kid decked out, with the custom head phones, a sweet pair of kicks, a tinted visor and REALLY THOSE GLOVES ARE SO COOL.
'thanks for coming with me! that music festival you and klavier first saw me at is nothing compared to this crowd, you best be ready to party!' and apollo is still not exactly the raver type so he just kind of nods and is like 'sure....though...good luck!' and clay just smiles like the big dork he is but he turns around and goes 'meet me back here after my set?'. apollo smiles back and is like 'alright!' when clay runs off to go do his set
in the mean time, apollo is alone and finds a place to chill around all of these young kids who seem about 72 percent cooler than he is and this is when DJ Terran takes the turntable, and suddenly, all eyes are on him.
he starts up the music and starts racking those beats hardcore, looking frantic pressing buttons and adjusting knobs, but all at the same time in his element for sure.
apollo again is just entranced by this kid like the music and the light and the futuristic aura that he was giving off was just wow just wow like look at the light show that he's putting on all by himself and he knows exactly how to string together rhythms and keys and beats to really get this crowd (and him) going.
once his set is over and the crowd (and maybe apollo cheered a bit, or maybe a lot really loudly we might never know which) goes wild, apollo suddenly finds clay next to him and is like 'whoa i didn't see you there you came out of nowhere!' and clay just laughs and is like 'the next set is about to be up! we should get in the pit cause thats where it's at, not like here with whatever you're drinking' and apollo is like 'nonono i dont like dancing that much' but clay kinda drags him anyway because poor apollo is literally the biggest victim of being dragged off when he's not feeling adventurous
so some other not as cool dj's are up there but the music is still pretty on point but as the music starts going, clay is just laying down the moves like apollo was like 'what humans can move like that seriously wow i did not receive that gift at all but wow look at the light trails he's doing with those gloves and all of the lights on him like wow just wo-' and clay's like 'hahah dont just stand there dance!' and apollo kind wakes up from his trance of just staring at clay and waits till the next beat to try to dance a bit
before they know it, they were dancing all night long together and clay is like 'thank you for coming apollo this was a good time!' and apollo's like 'yea we'll have to go again sometime!' and clay just hugs apollo but like a good long hug sort of thing before just going his merry way and apollo is still just like 'wow.' and goes home.
so yeah im not about to write an entire detailed inbetween of what happens but yeah the basic climax point is that CLAY AND KLAVIER HAVE A MUSIC COMPETITION/BATTLE OF THE BANDS FOR APOLLOS HEART
and this can end however you want (like with klavier or clay) but since this AU is basically centered around clay being the way cool space dj i feel like clay gets the girl chicken nugget apollo and they just kind of rock out everyday now yeah the end
