[Itzal --------------------------------------- Orion]
"Despite the lies that you're making
Your love is mine for the taking
My love is
Just waiting
To turn your tears to roses"
Tonight the small club they were playing was packed to capacity. Turok had done an amazing job promoting this one, and even though they had a friend-of-a-friend on the guitar Itzal and Orion were making the best of it. The guy was good and knew all of their songs. Not that anyone in this noisy club would notice a few missed notes anyway, they were singing along and being rowdy in general. Not that either bandmate seemed to care, Itzal's normal energy on stage still holding true as he put his all into this show.
I will be the one that's gonna hold you
I will be the one that you run to
My love is
A burning, consuming fire
As they wound down their set for the night Itzal threw a few of his guitar picks into the crowd before turning to Orion, grinning and walking off stage with him. "This was great." He slung an arm around his best friend's shoulder, handing his guitar off to one of their crew to be taken care of. They were out of here the next day, off half-way across the continent for another show. "We need to get a permanent guitarist." He eyed the man walking off stage, who seemed far more interested in the people than going with them.
Orion seemed thoughtful, nodding his head as they headed outside, breathing a lot easier once out in the crisp air. "Yeah, I was thinking that too. Did you have anyone in mind?" He pulled out a cigarette and lit it up, offering one to Itzal. Even though he turned it down every time he couldn't help but offer - it was only polite. He took a long drag off of it, feeling more at ease.
