Action & Video ---> And now for something *completely different*

[doubleppk]

[Hello Luceti. Enjoying the normalcy after the shift? Oh well, nothing stays normal long here. And so we have Elvis, giving a rooftop performance to put U2 to shame. Really, why the Malnosso decided to kidnap an Elvis impersonator or turn someone into one is probably not a good thing to question. Especially since the truth is far far stranger and doesn't even involve the Malnosso at all.]

[Still, if you're a fan of rock'n'roll, Elvis, Las Vegas, Elvis impersonators (because Elvis was not that short, not that light-haired, and the accent is clearly a little forced), or just impromptu rooftop jam sessions, enjoy this. Who knows, they might even take requests!]

[And otherwise, Elvis will leave the building and go about the village, wiggling hips and playing the guitar.]

[Please feel free to ask why. Just. Why.]

You ain't nothing but a hooooound dog!
CRYING all the tiiime!
You ain't nothin' but a hoooound dog!
Crying aaaaall the time!

Well, you ain't never caught a rabbit, and you ain't no friend of mine!
YEAH!

Well-a, thank ya. Thank ya very much. [That accent man...]

What's it like, the countryside? Is it lonely and sad like the song?

[doubleppk]

[Oh god. You're asking Fujiko this? Even as Elvis, her answer is going to be the same.]

Yes. It's a lot-a like being around here.

[She's so tempted to bust into singing Under the Sea for you. As many 4th walls as that breaks. But hey, it's not like Shirahoshi would know that wasn't an Elvis song, after all.]

[weakahoshi]

[Shirahoshi has no concept of Elvis whatsoever, and certainly wouldn't know the difference if Fujiko decided to sing other songs instead.]

Oh...

[Even the sea is kind of lonely around here. People come during the day, sure. But most of them leave at night, and there's a big dark sky full of... well, she's not really sure what they are, but even though they're pretty, they seem so far away.]

How long have you been here?

[doubleppk]

[A year and a half... no, almost two now. Ugh. That is the last thing she wants to think about. So sticking to pretending to be Elvis.]

This is just my first day! [All smiles.] You want another song? I think I've-a got one to put a smile on that pretty face.

[weakahoshi]

I'd love to hear another song! But... maybe not a countryside one.

[doubleppk]

Right. Let's see... something about-a swimming maybe?

[... Welp this was all she could come up with: Moonlight Swim.]

Let's go on a moonlight swim
Far away from the crowd
All alone upon the beach
Our lips and our arms
Close within each other's reach
Will be on a moonlight swim
Let's go on a moonlight swim
To the raft we can race
After just a little while
I'll sit and pretend
That you're on a desert isle
With me on a moonlight swim
Though the air is cold
With kisses oh so sweet
I'll keep you warm
So very warm from head to you feet
Let's go on a moonlight swim
We're in love and above
There's a crazy balloon
That sits winking down
And inviting us to come on in
On a moonlight swim

[Feel free to point she's too small to be Shirahoshi's type, Fujiko will not have a problem.]
