[OPEN] Le Fantôme de Booyah Base

Hanako smiled softly and rubbed the back of her head in embarrassment. "I-it's not that much of a deal. Most people who draw tend to do a signature, so I just did the same with painting." such modesty and innocence, truly a humble artist in the making as the female inkling tried to brush things off like it was nothing too important. Though she did feel flattered on the inside.

Looking at Jackson after she spoke about her opinion on turf war, she could see that something went off, that upset her company and made him go off into deep thinking. "I'm sorry! Did I say something wrong? Please don't be upset because of me! I'm so sorry!" she said, panicking a bit because she didn't want to blow having a friend so easily from just a slight mess up. So she bowed apologetically.

"That's fine, then. Maybe you could... maybe... try to... practice with me?"

Hanako also going wide eyed a bit as she got back up and couldn't believe what she was currently hearing. She was actually being asked to play Turf War with someone! Sure she didn't know the person for very long.... but the fact that this is happening is such a big thing for her! "Turf War?.... With.... another person? I-I guess.... If you're willing to teach me a few things..... I hope I do well enough." Hanako said with a soft smile at the end that showed she was putting her faith in Jackson, despite being afraid. The final nail to the coffin of guilt for Jackson right there, now he had the ghostly shy inkling WANTING to play TF with him. And if he were to refuse and leave her alone from here on out, then that'd be the burial for everything.

Hanako nodded a bit as she then shyly spoke. "My Grandma always said I needed to try to open up to people. So I'm trying my hardest, yes I-I w-want to go to Turf Wars...." she said, slipping up a bit at the end as the personality slipped back to the shy and scared one. The female inkling really was trying her best not to be afraid and just suck it up to actually try and have a friend.
Then deciding on a time was another thing they needed to do, and since Hanako was back to slightly scared her, she answered like this "O-oh! Time? I-I dunno... I mean.... really it's up to you... I don't want to rush you, it doesn't have to be tomorrow. But I have nothing else to do so I guess pick a time.... you pick a time, I mean."

Hanako was still wary and shy, but she was still trying her hardest to follow along and do things properly. Though seeing Jackson relax made her think that she had answered correctly and did something good. So that calmed the nervous inkling down a bit, at least she wasn't looking afraid now.
Then when the time was suggested to take place somewhere in the afternoon at 5PM, almost reaching the later hours of the day towards night, she nodded at the suggestion as there would still be people, but less-so than mid-day at least. "Like I said, I don't have anything to do..... so.... any time will do. And yes please! The crowd dies of towards entrances of buildings, so it'd feel a lot more comfortable for me." 

'I hope this is what you wanted me to do Grandma. I'm not sure if I'm doing it right! And I'm talking to a boy of all inklings!' she thought in her head as she just kept the facade up a bit longer on her face to cover up how despite they were getting friendly, she was still a bit shy on the inside. But for the most part they were indeed being friendly and it was honest happiness that she was doing some Turf War. It's just the details that have her all shy and hide-y.

"Ok...... I hope I don't disappoint you." a hint of nervousness and fear in her voice as she was hoping that she didn't mess things up with the first bit of company she's had in a while that poor Hanako could actually talk with rather than be a shy hiding mess and potentially run away or faint even!

Her expression changed from feeling a bit awkward, to looking surprised and curious as the subject had changed from trying to get the female inkling into Turf War, into the previous subject of music. And apparently her acquaintance plays Viola, which was nice to hear as they had music as something in common. Though the types of music may differ, it's music none the less.
"Well...... that's... nice. It's good to know you like music too, and don't worry, I'm sure you'd be great."
Hanako also had a good awareness of the time and her own schedule to leave was coming soon.

Faint voices were heard around the building they were up ontop of. Curious ones that wondered why the singing had stopped. "Uh.... I think it's time I have to leave too...... It's dark enough behind the lights for me to super jump out of sight. So I guess it's goodbye for now?" she said, walking closer to Jackson as that was further away from the billboard lights than where she was previously. "Oh, and I don't just sing because of my emotions. Sometimes I sing for fun too, so I might have some more up beat songs for people to listen to. It's...... been fun. Thank you, Jackson." she said with a soft sweet smile before walking a bit to the side so then she would be behind the sign and going into squid form. 

Though now like this, her other eye was on display for Jackson to see. A cool deep sapphire blue eye was the one that was hiding beneath her tentacle beforehand. Seems there was more to Hanako than meets the eye. And with that, she jumped off into the shadows and went from building to building without many noticing her. Or at least the ones looking for her didn't see her. And as she flew off, a melody was heard from where Jackson was as she sung one last song for fun and entertainment before leaving. 

"Flyyyy me to the moooooon
Let me play among the stars......
Let me see what spring is like
On Jupiter and Maaarrs....."

And so, it was curtains for the Singing Phantom of Booyah Base, but she was going out with an encore performance before heading home. And what a melody at that. Going from building to building and sometimes turning back into the inkling form in mid-air to twirl around happily. And when she timed it in-front of the moon it was beautiful. A few of the people who were looking for her down below didn't see her, but did hear the song and smiled as they might've clicked their fingers to the tune before walking away satisfied.

"In other words hold my haaaaand....
In other woooords...... Darling, kiss me.....
Fill my heart with song
And let me sing forever moooorrreee...."

Usually her songs were filled with heart ache from being all alone, but this time?

"You are all I long for
All I worship and adore.....
In other words.... Please be truuuuuueeeee...
In other words.... I love yyyooooouuuu...."

This time she wasn't all alone.

"In other words,
I love.... yyyooooouuu....."

She finally found someone to give her that push.
