I watched it, but I don't.. think I really understood it--
[ it made like. zero sense to her. i'm gonna say she watched it in passing when she was trying to play games in the game room. but she kinda.. remembers the lyrics? maybe.
Come on and slam, and welcome to the jam Come on and slam, if you wanna jam!
[ Isn't this where they should start dancing? Unfortunately, for me, Aymeric is a good dancer. No, I am not going to describe how they should dance to Space Jam. I can only describe that it's tasteful. Passes baton to zetsu. ]
anyways, no more lyrics, just dancing now! Meteion is.. doing her best, on her bird peets. idk about... tasteful, and why hei used that word but. anyways onto pan now! ]
[ to jump dance, and then he'll grab Meteion's hand to help her dance with her peets. this is actually fun? even with the crowd. he's going to uh huh on cue ]
[y'all really looked at hei and said "then perish" huh
Well. The crowd reacts wildly! Holy shit, do they love Space Jam. The pen lights in the crowd are a blur of yellows and greens, and the crowd will start singing along with them almost immediately! Or, you know. Doing that crowd chanting thing that crowds tend to do with lyrics. The hype vibes are immense in this house. They'll get the feeling that their swords are truly digging this energy too, and they'll feel a little more peppy and into the performance, accordingly.
At some point, someone yells AYMERIC, SHOW US YOUR BOOB!!! Just the one singular boob. Someone also lobs a beautiful bouquet of roses onto the stage! They may hit Prompto as he's busy jivin, but at least whoever threw them was kind enough to trim away the thorns.
Eventually, they'll hear a few people begin to shout: ENCORE! ENCORE! ENCORE! which quickly gets adopted by the rest of the audience, until it's clear that they're demanding more. At around the same time, they'll hear a thunk on the stage behind them. Several large boxes have landed near the back, and a few props have appeared, including several fans in different colors and an enormous matsuri float.]
[ WHY IS HE BEING OBJECTIFIED? He's not going to frown but he's definitely ??? which is a vibe they can all feel. Just utter confusion. The confusion grows when they ask for encore, then the pops and matsuri float come out. This is all so much. ]
I should have finished my reading on Japanese culture...
[ But he takes... The fans. There are enough for all of then to hold one per hand? So he passes them to Meteion and Prompto. ]
[ he'll actually glance at Aymeric wondering if he's going to do it. then he gets hit in the face by the flowers. feeling embarrassed as he holds them. ] Whoa! Hey...thanks?
[ this is so weird. normally girls and lately boys aren't into him? giving the sword another touch. ]
Don't be so amused, dude. [ talking low enough for the sword and those on the stage to hear. putting the flowers off to the side before he returns to grab a fan. ]
We might have to do a dance. Uh... [ trying to remember if he was taught any involving fans. ]
[Aymeric will find that there is indeed enough for them to have two each! He can pass them out, though as he does and they take their respective fans, something strange happens.
At first, it may seem like the stage is shifting, but if they squint through the glare of the spotlight, they'll be able to see that it's actually the audience that's shifting instead. The raucous mob of people clamoring for Prompto's hand in marriage and a rare glimpse at Aymeric's boob (singular) begin to slide to the right, almost as if they're on a conveyor belt getting pulled out of the room, their cries fading out from the stage. From the left side, it seems a new crowd is coming in.
This one is far less energetic than the first, though. There aren't any enormous, hearty applause to be had in this group! Tragic. Rather, they'll see that their mob of adoring, manic fans has been replaced with... a bunch of grannies? Again, it's hard to tell with the glare of the lights, but you get the feeling that they are very stern and will perhaps be hard to please... Even your swords seem a little more intent on not goofing off.
The same, booming voice from before announces:]
East versus West versus North! A battle you've all been waiting to see! Who has the best festival song and dance in this team...? You, lucky audience, are about to find out!
[ Aymeric only began being popular with old people recently, so his reaction to grannies in the crowd (are they grannies) is... Not hopeful. He looks over to them while holding onto his two fans, apologetic and concerned.
Uhm. ]
I know naught of festival song and dance, at least not from this culture.
[ Meteion looks back with that same reflected apologetic and concerned, but also a sense of... lost. What do they do now? The same? This group does not sound as... energetic. And what do they mean battle...?
Gently pats her sword, she is doing her best but also... what. ]
Festival..? [ you know, maybe if she hung out with kumon and chinatsu more- she'd have the experience for this. unfortunately, she does not. are they gonna start booing us ]
[Wouldn't that be funny if the grannies started booing help.
They do not, but their stern energy sure makes a stark difference from their last crowd, huh? The silence is almost oppressive now that they've become used to the shrill cries of screaming fans.
No magical song or dance comes to them this time, but they do get the feeling that there is perhaps something helpful in the large boxes that have landed near the back...?]
[ There is a pause as Aymeric waits for them to just "know," but nothing comes. No songs come to mind for him, none that all of them would know. His eyes shift across the crowd, then to the back...
Oh.
Wait. ]
Appease the elderly forthwith while I look to see what else we're given.
[ Boxes? Aymeric will go look and open one to see what they have. ]
[The stern grannies do not seem pleased by their attempts, oh dear. They'll get the feeling from their swords that they should be more high-energy, even though their audience is so judgmental and rude. It's a festival, after all!
Aymeric abandons them to the wrinkly wolves and goes to check out the boxes, in the meanwhile. The first one he opens has a large taiko drum inside of it; as soon as he touches it, he'll instinctively know how to play. He will also get the feeling that he's supposed to be the North in this apparent festival battle.]
[ Aymeric has never seen a taiko drum in his life. Regular drums? Yes, but this? He assumes it's played like how they usually would, but is festival songs really just... Drum?
Anyway, there are more boxes and he's been imbued with the knowledge of the taiko, so he returns to the stage with it in tow. ]
I found a instrument that may be of use... There could be more, so quickly shuffle to the back and return anon.
anyways, at that mention, Meteion perks up and abandons the disappointed grannies in tow. to the boxes!! she'll inspect the second one and leave the other for Prompto to check out. ]
[As Aymeric begins to play the drums, the sternness of the audience seems to lighten a little. One old lady near the stage even nods in approval! You go, Aymeric, cheat your way to stardom. The taiko drum, as it's played, gives off a powerful feeling of strength and determination. Kinda makes you want to start doing some good ol' matsuri yells, huh?
Meteion will find a set of festival bells in her box! Tragically, this one doesn't come with intrinsic knowledge, but truly, one does not need intrinsic knowledge on how to shake bells. The sword at her side seems pleased with these! The sound is light and pleasant, providing a nice contrast to the taiko. She'll also get the feeling that she represents the West.
Prompto's box will reveal kachi-kachi, basically Japanese-style castanets. Their sound is sharp and clean, cutting through the other noises with precious. He'll get the feeling that he represents East. The vibe from his sword is still amused. He maybe gets the feeling that it would be making some sort of crude joke now, if it could speak.
The grannies seem more willing to give these weirdos a go, watching with a silent sort of intensity to see what they'll do next.]
[ He really is cheating and a small part of him feels bad about it, but he keeps playing the taiko drum with the training wheel ability guiding him.
Aymeric has a moment as he thinks about what he’s doing, what he’s wearing, and how this is so far removed from who he usually is.
Just a small little crisis but it’s over fast as he tries to appeal to the nanas with a smile as he continues to play. With every ounce of Ishgardian decorum left in his body, he REsistS yelling. ]
[ Festival bells! ....The fuck are these! SHE DOES NEED THE KNOWLEDGE? YOU EXPECT SO MUCH OUT OF HER, AND FOR WHAT. this is fine, the sword she's bonded with seems so pleased and that just has her mood perking up.
she'll go ahead and just ..shake them, lightly stepping on back away from the boxes with soft light pleasant chime and ring.

I've watched it so many times now...
[ he already knows all the songs by heart. anyways he'll hold his hand out to the crowd. also because I want Aymeric to sing a certain part...]

he'll look at the Meteion and give a nod with a smile. okay! they got this!
