[fieldbox="Brackston Banks; Hollywood Heartthrob, silver, solid"]
Brackston accepted her invitation to come indoors as he should have, entering the familiar home and cracking a smile at the sight of the ecstatic German Shepard. He leaned down and scratched the mut's ears, allowing him to lick dark knuckles in an amiable sort of greeting. "Hey boy," Brackston said with a grin, petting the canine who sniffed so eagerly as his every inch in curiosity. "How ya been? Nice to see ya. Good dog. Okay, stop sniffing me." The actor stood straight and kept the smile intact, grateful once again that Evelyn was unable to see it. Thor skittered off excitedly to some unknown destination, leaving the pair alone in the quaint little living room.
"You didn't think I'd come?" Brackston inquired with a devilish grin. "Have so little faith in me, do ya?"
Not that I blame her. I barely have faith in myself.
"Nah, just kidding. I'd be fine if your dad was here. I don't hate him or anything. It's just, yeah. I'm a prickly guy I guess, but I hate being judged. I was out of line too. A mutual apology would make it better. Gotta happen sometime, I guess." Brackston scratched the back of his neck and buried his hands in his pockets, bouncing on his heels, one of his many little ticks when confronted with a situation that made him uncomfortable. Only, he didn't feel like fleeing. Not from her. "I didn't even know you played the piano, though. How do you read the music? Is it in braille or something, or is it read to you?"
Wow, Brackston. Way to go.
"I just mean, you know....actually, I don't know." He chuckled. "Could you, uh. Could you explain it to me, maybe play a little? That's what I'm here for, right?"
It never ceased to amaze him, how Evelyn had taken who he pretended to be and tossed him out the nearest window. There were no masks around her, even though Brackston wished she couldn't tell the difference. He kicked off his shoes and placed them by the front door, gesturing to the piano like a fool in hopes she would catch his cue.
I wonder if she knows what I'm doing, based on the sounds I make.
That's creepy and also really, really cool.[/fieldbox]
