{ ☆ } Vitalis has always had a natural affinity for music, the young man/nereid enjoying a wide variety of it... But his favorite genre, by far, has to be the upbeat and dance-worthy style of Pop Music. The greatest of the greatest tunes belonging to the singing sensation Yori Inoue. Someone who’s career Vitalis has followed since the very beginning, able to genuinely state that he was ‘listening to his music before it was cool’. Which is why it is no surprise that when word came that the star would be holding a concert in the very city Vitalis calls home (a once-in-a-lifetime event for the area) he began painstakingly saving his money, stretching the meager amount until he could finally afford what he so desperately wanted... A TICKET.
A ticket that now rests forgotten in his pocket because he’s nearly-certain that he just caught a glimpse of the singer slipping (relatively) unnoticed through the crowd of impatient fans... True, his face was almost completely hidden by the hood of a jacket and he was moving with the swiftness and grace expected of him. But Vitalis would recognize that petite stature and that iconic purple/black hair anywhere... Naturally, the star-struck man has to follow. Quickly giving chase (in as discreet a manner as the clumsy half-nymph can manage) he weaves his small form through the bustling crowd, vivid maroon eyes locked on his target.
A target that is getting away at an alarming rate...
“H-Hey, wait!” He calls out in a frantic whisper-yell, awkwardly lurching forward to grab onto the other man’s shoulder in a last-ditch effort to keep him from disappearing forever. Or at least, until Vitalis sees him performing onstage. Of course, regret instantly washes over him once he realizes what he’s done; hand abruptly letting go to clasp his other one behind his back. Emitting a light-hearted (and musical) laugh, a sheepish smile soon adorns the fan’s face. “Heheh... I, uh... I’m really sorry about that. I don’t- know what came over me?” Gaze flickers off to the side, cheeks becoming hinted with pink, “... This is probably gonna sound stupid, buuuuut... You’re Yori Inoue, right?” He is. Vitalis already knows that he is. { ☆ }
