[When the device clicks on, Ranka seems to be a little quieter than usual. Her eyes don't have the spark they normally have, and clenched between her hands is something small. When she opens her hands, its revealed to be a harmonica. She brings it to her lips and blows into it. Instead of a silvery note however, it's a jumble of dissonance. It seems to startle her and she almost drops it.]
Ah! He always made this look so simple.
[She quietly sighs and slumps down over the piano bench and rests the harmonica on her lap. She's far from sad, but she's definitely not her usual self.]
I wonder if anyone else has a sibling that they miss.
[Sheryl had come along with Ranka to the theatre today to see some of the other sights of Asgard and to hopefully get a better sense of where some of the things were in their district. She was looking over the rigging near the edge of the stage when she hears Ranka's question about missing siblings.]
Ranka...
[Ranka blinks and then looks over her shoulder and then back at the camera, she gives a smile as she looks down at the harmonica.]
If he were here, then I wouldn't have this.
[She motions to the harmonica. But it seems to deflate her.]
Ozma...Brera...I miss this them both!
[Having heard enough of this depressed prattle that didn't suit Ranka, the diva marches purposefully onto the edge of the stage. She may not have a microphone in her hand but she can hear the acoustics already. Her voice will carry with ease as she can't think of any other way to bolster the idol's spirits than with a song.
She opens her mouth and sings the opening lines of a song that is very near to both of them. Don't give up! Live on!
Ranka hears the song, her hair perking. She stares transfixed on the other. What was she doing moping. Slowly she stands and starts to sing with Sheryl their voices mingling together. They've obviously sang together before. As she turns to move to Sheryl, she places the harmonica on the piano bench turning instead to sing.
The video continues recording as Ranka and Sheryl both continue to sing. Only stopping as Ranka smiles back to her old self as she hugs the older singer tightly the picture blacking out.]
