⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ EASTWOOD | O92722 - 11:06 ⠀
@yakuIero bored out of their minds, acer and ian decides to find a way to spend their time playing with their instruments at the former's place. "parang ano..." ian starts, strumming acer's guitar in boredorm, "gusto i-try bigla mag-busking." he nudges acer who's sitting on the ground.
@yakuIero “sasamahan mo ba ako, o gigripuhan kita?” ian jokingly says, getting up from his seat and placing the guitar by the wall, he took acer’s hand to help him get up. “tara sa eastwood, kung tunay kang bestfriend, sasamahan mo ako sa trip ko kahit di ka pa ligo.” he tugs his arm.
@CRTZ013 Acer darts his eyes to the latter, eyebrows furrow as he pouts yet he agreed to Ian “wow, himalang sinisipag ka diyan?” he chuckles. He offers his hand to the lad giving him scrunches as he teases Ian about what he said “hindi ka naman talaga naliligo” Acer utters.
@CRTZ013 Grabbing their own instruments, two acoustic guitars and an amplifier. Acer starts driving until the two buddies reaches their said destination. Then a huge crowd greets them that surely will watch their performance later on. “ready mo bulsa mo, dami tao tol” Acer chuckles.
@yakuIero once they arrived, both of them quickly set up their instruments, gaining some curious attention from the people surrounding them. ian took the mic that they bought, testing it before speaking to the crowd, “hi, everyone. i hope we won’t be an inconvenience,” he chuckles.
@yakuIero “we’ll just perform one song and then alis narin kami ng partner ko dito.” he sets the mic on the stand and takes his guitar, “by the way, i am ian and my friend here,” he points towards acer, “his name is acer, we’re part of a forming band called iris, but for now, kami muna.”
@yakuIero “i hope you guys would listen to our music once we debut!” he cheerfully says, “but anyway, i’ll let my partner talk while i tune my guitar.” ian then looks back at acer, “mahilig talaga ako sa on the spot, kaya pinapressure kita, anong tutugtugin natin pre.”
@CRTZ013 Acer just laughing at how Ian talk to the crowd, shaking his head while setting up the amplifier and his guitar. After tuning the instrument, he strums the guitar lowly then pressure and agitations riled up to his body, after hearing his friend's statement.
@CRTZ013 "Gago, hinila mo nalang ako dito pinepressure mo pa ako?" Acer rolls his eyes playfully yet he grabs the mic to Ian, testing it as he speaks. "Hello crowd..." Acer pauses, his heart suddenly wants to pop out from his chest. Clearing his throat as he speaks again
@CRTZ013 "I'm Acer and that's Ian. Trip lang talaga 'to, hindi ko alam bakit ako umagree, pero sana makinig kayo sa tutugtugin namin..." he says, adjusting the mic's stand to his height. "She looks so perfect by 5 seconds of summer, Acer&Ian version" he couldn't help but laugh
@CRTZ013 knowing that this session will surely be fun for them, since they don't have any practice at all, just a whole trippings for the two. They don't even have a permit to play within the area. "Ready ka na, Ian?" he asks the latter as he adjust the guitar strap to his shoulder.
@yakuIero “game na.” he nods, taking the mic and placing it in front of him, “1 and 2 and 3,” he cues and starts to strum his guitar, if this wasn't a random event, ian would have preferred to play his drums. he starts to hum, for this session– he would be the one singing for them.
@yakuIero “hey,” he starts to sing, acer joining him in the background, “by the way,” a smile paints his lips as he continues to strum his guitar, “i just got married, so i dedicate this to my husband zach.” he laughs, knowing acer would be rolling his eyes.
@yakuIero he then continues to sing, “Simmer down, simmer down. They say we're too young now to amount to anything else But look around We worked too damn hard for this just to give it up now If you don't swim, you'll drown But don't move, honey.” he sings with a smile on his lips.
@CRTZ013 Standing in the middle of the crowd gives Acer a tight knot in his stomach, yet he felt so alive and kicking. After Ian starts cueing, Acer starts strumming his guitar as soon as the song began, providing them a mellow but vibrant beginning melody.
@CRTZ013 He gets along well, feeling the tune and rhythm of the music as well as the cue of his friend in every lyric he throws, until it is his turn to sing "You look so perfect standing there In my American Apparel underwear And I know now, that I'm so down"
@CRTZ013 Acer is too fired up that they caught lots of attention to the crowd, he also do some head bangs and almost jump to the beautiful melody of the song after singing the chorus. He strums rhythmically to align the tune to the song, letting Ian sings again.
@yakuIero ian follows acer’s lead, happily joining the other once he sees his friend enjoying their performance, "your lipstick stain is a work of art i got your name tattooed in an arrow heart. and I know now, that I'm so down.”
@yakuIero as they continue to sing, people have gathered around them, some are curious but most are there happily singing along with them. this gave ian the chance to interact with the other people, moving towards them and letting them sing along.
@yakuIero as they come towards the end, the crowd have gathered around them, placing their tips on the ground, “you look so perfect standing there In my american apparel underwear and i know now, that i'm so down.” ian slows down for the last chorus, taking his time to strum his guitar.
@CRTZ013 Acer sings the last part of the chorus with Ian, happily ending the song as the instruments fading slowly with a few strums of their guitar. "Thank you Araneta!!!" Acer jokes around where he received a tap from Ian.
@CRTZ013 "Joke lang, thank you for jamming with us! once again I'm Acer and this is Ian, from the band IRIS. Have a great day!" he adds and bows to the crowd. Cheers and applause from the audience makes his heart flutter, smiling at them genuinely and they starts packing their things
@CRTZ013 - end
