Davesprite

[grants_wishes]

[About 20% of the terms that Davesprite is using are totally lost on this kiddo, but Alluka doesn't seem to be too bothered by this fact. Everything he's saying, at the very least, sounds like it's supposed to be an inspirational pep-talk, and it's really hard to turn that down.]

It sounds like fun, when you say it like that. [Or, at least probably fun. Tool, chump, what do swans have to do with it?] I do know a couple of songs...!

[Probably literally only a couple, though.]

It's supposed to be fun. I mean, there's always gonna be assholes and hecklers who try to ruin it for everyone like they're the fun police and this is the hardest won raid in their career, but that's like one or two voices in a crowd of cooler heads.

[At least, generally speaking. It would probably kind of hurt the point to say that sometimes everyone is just a dick, but that probably won't be the case here.]

Then get on up there and strut that shit like it's your stage and everyone else is just a loaner.

[There are people that police fun?? How dreadful!

But Alluka doesn't focus on the unusual idioms for very long at all, Davesprite's explanation is a plenty good distraction.]

Okay! I'll give it everything I've got, then! Thank you.

['Everything I've got' might not be a whole lot, but as long as the effort and enjoyment are there, then it seems like that's what counts the most.]

[Well, she didn't take much convincing. It's kind of refreshing, actually, and Davesprite throws her a half-assed salute to the cause.]

Hey, as long as you've got an idea what you're doing, that's the best anyone can ask. It's karaoke, there's a statistical guarantee of an act at least fifty times more embarrassing than yours sometime during this picnic.

[This statistical rule applies to everyone and is clearly in no way impossible.]
