Karaoke With Jouno part 2

(A/N: I decided this needed a part two. That's what happens when you've got two hyperfixations keeping your brain in a chokehold :') so without further ado, have some more of Jouno singing and Teruko having something to say every time he does)

Jouno: *sitting at his desk and listening to music while he works...and then beginning to sing along to it* where's LA? where's LA? where's LA? whatever happened to the city we knew?

Teruko: *glances over at him* I'll tell you where it is. It's not even in this country

Jouno: *rolls eyes...if he could, that is* I know that. It's a song, Teruko. It's good music

Teruko: ah, I should've known you were listening to that stuff again

Jouno: and I'll continue to do so *switches to a different song and begins singing again* it's true, I don't know which side of me to listen to. Got the devil on each shoulder, it's the truth. It's consuming me and everything I do. Nothing left to prove, nothing left to lose. And that's all it takes sometimes to make me relapse. I keep making mistakes, man, I need to relax. Cause I'm down on my knees again, searching for peace, but then world war me begins...

Teruko: *cough* emo *cough*

Jouno: I'LL NEVER CHANGE, WOKE UP TODAY! I-I-I'M STILL THE SAME, MY WORST ENEMY! DO I HATE WHO I AM? CAUSE I HATE WHAT I SEE! WORLD WAR ME...

Teruko: EMO.

Jouno: not emo. *starts singing again* I pray that you stay away, you speak with the tongue of a snake. Baptized in a shallow lake, I hate myself when I see your face...

Teruko: you still sound emo. and you can't see

Jouno: shut up, I know. *goes back to singing* I pray that you stay away, you speak with the tongue of a snake. Baptized in a shallow lake, I hate myself when I see your face, yeah. I HATE MYSELF WHEN I SEE YOUR FACE! BLEH! BLEH! BLEH! BLEH!

Teruko: ...random screaming now? Seriously, what kind of music is this?

Jouno: I've told you a million times, it's good music.

Teruko: please don't start singing again...

Jouno: *grins evilly*

Teruko: nooooooo...

Jouno: I don't believe in all your demons anymore, it's hard to see with any reason from before. I lie awake and face these shadows in the night, I see the truth through crimson eyes...

Teruko: no you don't

Jouno: *ignores her* take me home...TAKE ME HOME WHERE THE RESTLESS GO, RECKLESS TILL THE DAY I REST MY BONES. THERE'S NO USE TRYING TO SAVE MY SOUL, THERE'S NO USE TRYING TO SAVE MY SOUL. TAKE ME HOME WHERE THE RESTLESS GO, RECKLESS TILL THE DAY I REST MY BONES. THERE'S NO USE TRYING TO SAVE MY SOUL, THERE'S NO USE TRYING TO SAVE MY SOUL! WHOA-OH-OH-OH. WHOA-OH-OH. THERE'S NO USE TRYING TO SAVE MY SOUL.

Teruko: at least you admit that...

Jouno: shut up

Teruko: not until you do

Jouno: then I suppose we'll be here awhile

Teruko: *sighs*

Jouno: *smiles and starts singing again* oh no, how'd I sink so low? Ain't got the patience, I need my medication. I need to crawl out, out of this hole now, before the darkness grabs a hold and takes my soul now...

Teruko: you have a soul?

Jouno: yes. now shut up *goes back to singing* and it just goes on and on and on...on and on and on...yeah call the doc, I must be sick. Better get me my medicine. Now it's five o'clock on the phone again, think I might need another prescription. Call the doc, I must be sick. Better get me my medicine. Now it's five o'clock on the phone again, think I might need another prescription...

Teruko: ...I'm not even gonna ask about this one

Jouno: good. now.. *starts singing again* WHO LEFT THE DOOR OPEEENNNNN? WHO LEFT ME OUTSIDE? I'M ON MY KNEES AND I'M HOPING THAT SOMEONE HOLDS ME TONIGHT, HOLDS ME TONIGHT...

Teruko: ...if the door's open, can't you just go back inside?

Jouno: technically, yes. but the song's probably supposed to be a metaphor or something, I don't know

Teruko: you listen to some weird stuff

Jouno: I do not... *sings* there's gotta be a way, something's gotta change, something's gotta change...AND NOW I SWEAR I'M BLIND, LOOKING FOR THE LIGHT I CAN NEVER FIND. I JUST WANNA LIVE BEFORE I DIE, OVER AND OVER IN MY MIND. AND I CANNOT SEEM TO RUN, CANNOT SEEM TO FIGHT. I JUST WANNA LIVE BEFORE I DIE, OVER AND OVER IN MY MIND. I'M A TIME BOMB, I'M A TIME BOMB...

Teruko: ...well, you got one thing right. you are indeed blind

Jouno: stop taking jabs at me >:(

Teruko: no :) and you're the issue here :))

Jouno: nobody can fix me if I'm part of the problem

Teruko: was that another one of those lyrics?

Jouno: ...yes

Teruko: how very unsurprising

Jouno: wanna hear more?

Teruko: no

Jouno: great! *inhales and starts singing at the top of his lungs* I GOT A FRONT ROW SEAT TO WATCH IT BURN, NOT EVERYBODY GETS TO SEE THE END OF THE WORLD! SIT BACK AND ENJOY THE RIDE, IT'S THE FIRST CLASS SUICIDE! GRAB THE KEROSENE, LET'S WATCH IT BURN! NOT EVERYBODY GETS TO SEE THE END OF THE WORLD! SIT BACK AND ENJOY THE RIDE, IT'S THE FIRST CLASS SUICIDE!

Teruko: could you get any louder?

Jouno: I could, actually. But I won't

Teruko: does that mean you'll stop singing?

Jouno: debatable...after I sing a bit more

Teruko: uuuuugggghhhh...

Jouno: why do I keep running from the person I'm becoming?

Teruko: good question

Jouno: *ignores her and keeps singing* I spent all my money, but I'll be happy when I die. It's game over, ten AM and I'm not sober. Trying to keep my composure, so I can be happy when I die...

Teruko: happy when you die? you sound like that bandaged guy

Jouno: eww, don't compare me to someone I've arrested. That's low, even for you

Teruko: *raises an eyebrow* is it though?

Jouno: yes. how could you?

Teruko: oh I dare

Jouno: ... *sharp inhale* DISCRIMINATIONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

(A/N: there you have it, more of Jouno singing. I may or may not do a part 3)
