[Guess what, Siren's Port! Finn Hudson is not coming to you with a question, for once. At least not yet. Nope, instead he's probably just going to end up embarrassing himself. It's not like he hasn't done this in front of a lot of people before, or anything. But, this is different or something]

I don't know how Rachel used to do this everyday then, you know, post it online and everything. I mean, I doubt that many people saw it her videos, because it's not like anyone even uses MySpace anymore, but whatever, I guess. Um... [He trails off as he moves to prop the NV up against his headboard. He clears his throat, then starts to sing this song]

♪ I will keep calling you to see
If you're sleeping, are you dreaming
If you're dreaming, are you dreaming of me
I can't believe you actually picked me ♪

[When the song ends, for a long while the only sound in the room is Finn's breathing. Yeah, that was just as awkward as he thought it would be] It'd probably sound a little better with music or something but I kinda have to work with what I've got and, you know, music isn't really one of those things right now.

[He figures that Rachel would appreciate the big show of affection. And for anyone who doesn't like Valentine's Day? Well, it's a nice song. Enjoy it!]

[thequarterback]

Actually, you any good with a guitar?

[inthejunk]

Not too bad! [He puffs up a little.] I was thinking of trying to get the boss to let me start an open mic night at work.

[thequarterback]

That'd be pretty awesome. [A pause] You know, I'm not actually all that great on the guitar. I mean I can kinda hold my own on one but it's not really my thing. [There's a question in there somewhere]

Hey, I don't remember if I ever got your name.

[inthejunk]

Hanamura Yosuke.

[And you're Finn. But it's rude to remind people that they've forgotten your name, so he'll let that slide. He doesn't seem all that offended, anyway. He'd be hard pressed to remember everyone that helped him on the first day, too.]

It's called the Cat's Eye, a block away from the Orchard stop. Feel free to drop by sometime and fill out a comment card suggesting live music. A little help couldn't hurt.

[thequarterback]

[If Finn realized, he'd feel like a total asshole, since it's actually a little rude to forget someone's name in the first place. He's just still getting used to the very different names or... or something]

Sure, I could totally do that. I'll mention it to my friends from back home, too. I'm sure they'd be into the idea.

[inthejunk]

You think so?

[His face lights up a bit at that.]

Send them our way! He'll have to agree if lots of people think it's a good idea.

[thequarterback]

Yeah, totally. I know my friends from home, at least, would be into that. Totally in to singing and performing and everything. I don't know, maybe I could talk a few more people into it too.

[inthejunk]

If you do I'll play backup for your first number!

[thequarterback]

Yeah? I'm gonna hold you to that.

Randomly, he doesn't actually wear glasses. They're equipment for his job in canon.

[inthejunk]

Sure, but you'd better sound good. I need to look cool up there.

cool cool :3

[thequarterback]

Yeah, I sound pretty good. I mean, I guess there's a reason why I'm kinda the male lead in my school's glee club. [Sometimes he wishes that glee club wasn't called 'glee club'. It sounds really lame every time he says it out loud]

[inthejunk]

The what club?

[Oh, man. You better not be as uncool as that makes you sound, dude.]

[thequarterback]

The, uh-- It's really not as lame as it sounds.

[You're going to force him back into the glee closet, Yosuke :C]

[inthejunk]

[He's a big fan of closets. Keeping up appearances is a good idea in his book.]

Uh...okay. Just nothing too peppy and dumb, okay? I'm trying to impress-

...the customers. You know?

[thequarterback]

[Finn's pretty about keeping up appearances too]

Yeah the, uh, preppy, dumb stuff isn't really my thing. Don't worry.

[inthejunk]

Great! We're cool, then.
