Calling
Danny-boy

Ring ring ring

Hey, Carole! How'd it go?

...

...You're crying...

...

Find a park bench, sit down, and spill.

...

...

*sniffle* Gosh, I've been an emotional wreck lately.

You're fine. You've been acting normally.

Gee, thanks.

No, I mean, considering the situation! Jeez, woman, I'm not going to kick you while you're down.

I know, I know.

Did you find a park bench?

Yes.

Did you sit down?

Yeah.

Okay, spill.

Danny, I don't think it'll work. By the time I have enough money and the studio's built, it'll be too late. I'll be off to Juilliard before the reno's done.

Couldn't you just build a studio in New York City?

If only living space wasn't so flipping expensive...

Ugh, don't you just hate reality?

So much. *sniffle*

First things first, please grab a tissue.

Roger that.

...

...

You know what I'm thinking?

Do I want to know?

Yes, you do. I'm thinking about what we said yesterday was wrong.

Which part?

That you'll have to go on tour after your album sells.

What's wrong with that?

What if you go on tour before you even start recording?

How does that even work? Touring without music?

Without music? What about all the music you've written? I can see it now: just you and your instrument, making a name for yourself.

I already have a name: Carolina.

I do, too: Daniel. But you can make people know your name.

How in the world would I make that work?

Oh my gosh, Carole. Think!

There's a reason you're the smart one.

Obviously. You could work at clubs, parties, Legion Halls, bars. Anywhere that pays, pretty much.

Danny-boy, I can't just walk into a bar.

Why not?

Underage?

Oh, well, we can work around that.

Oh boy.

The great part about this is that a) the schedule revolves around you, b) you can work two jobs, c) your music will gain fame, and d) you can do it anywhere, including around Juilliard.

True. Very true.

You'll get money faster.

Also true, but will it be enough? More importantly, will it be in time?

Only time will tell.

And a bit of math.

And some finagling with your parents.

And some finagling with the law.

And some finagling with Luna.

You're roping poor, innocent Luna into this?

You should see if she can raise your pay a little.

Ah, good idea. It probably won't go down well, though.

It's worth a shot.

I feel like I'm a modern-day gladiator facing a ferocious beast. There's only one bullet in my gun and once chance to kill the beast. The only way to kill it is by hitting a tiny spot on its heart. If you miss, sudden death.

You could've skipped all the modern-day nonsense and just said you only had one arrow left in your quiver.

I just finished a depressing speech and all you have to say is that I'm a horrible storyteller?!

Pretty much.

Idiot.

I thought you were the idiot.

Beeeep

Call ended

Hehe.
