Sitting around

[Alexis]

Alexis thought for a moment. "Well if you do remember, maybe we can play sometime..."  She suggested.

[goblet_fulla_fire]

"I'd like that," said Goblet with a smile. He snapped his fingers, "Got it! It was GDGBD. I now recall the sentence I use to remember the tuning, although it was very silly: God Dang Germans Be Dissin'." Goblet gave a small chuckle. "Very silly," he said, "but it works."

[Alexis]

She laughed.  "Well theres one way to remember it!"  she said as she laughed some more.

[goblet_fulla_fire]

(That's actually how I remember it though.)

"Oh man," said Goblet. "That sentence takes me back. Who would have thought that a sentence like that could trigger major nostalgia?" Goblet now wanted to hear the satisfactory strum of a perfectly tuned banjo.

[Alexis]

(thats cool...I just know it by memory lol)

She smiled lightly before asking "How long have you had your banjo?" she ask curiously.  She didn't know that much about them so she was curious.

[goblet_fulla_fire]

(d**n this new replies notifier! Suddenly it works, then it doesn't!)

"Twelve, I think," said Goblet. "It was one of those things I just wanted to have more than actually wanting to play. Then the later years, I actually picked it up and started playing and frailing. My fingertips have never been the same since," joked Goblet.

[Alexis]

(Haha ive never used it..so I wouldnt know  :P  It must be messed up then?)

Alexis smiled "It seems like it would be a fun thing to play."  She said, trying to imagine playing the banjo. "Sounds like your not that bad at it though"

[goblet_fulla_fire]

(Yep. Nothing is coming up.)

"Well, I AM not that bad which is to say I am not exactly good. Or rather, I don't quite know how I play. I do know that I can play, I just don't know if I am considered good. How good are you, Alexis?" asked Goblet.

[Alexis]

(That sucks.. :-\)

"Well, people say that I'm pretty good... but I just consider myself as average at it..."  Alexis said, she thought for a moment.  "I could go run up to my room and go get my guitar and show you if you want"  she pointed out.

[goblet_fulla_fire]

"Yeah, I think I would like that," said Goblet smiling. "I could do the same with my banjo, though I know I'll be a bit rusty."

[Alexis]

"Aww come on.  I wanna hear" Alexis said smiling.  She then ran up to her room real quick and opened her guitar case.  She took out her old acoustic guitar and quietly ran back into the common room. (I forgot, is that where we were?) She sat back down in her chair.  She looked up at him expectantly.

[goblet_fulla_fire]

(Yes, that is where we are. And I'll post tomorrow. I want to go to bed now. Talk to you later.)

[Alexis]

(Okay.  See ya)

[goblet_fulla_fire]

Goblet judged by her look that she expected him to get his banjo. "All righty then, I'll just... get it then." Goblet darted up the staircase to the boy's dormitory, looked under his bed, and took out his dusty banjo. And by golly it was dusty. Goblet remembered how clean the mahogany wood was on the neck and how natural it felt to the touch. He also took the capo right next to it. Goblet went down back to the common room with banjo and capo in hand. "Happy?" asked Goblet as he sat down.

[Alexis]

"I am now"  Alexis said with a smile.  She looked at the banjo "Now, show me what ya got"  she said, pointing at the banjo for him to play.   She continued to smile teasingly.
