IC Prospective: Aziraphale/Ezra Fell (Librarian)

Character: Aziraphale Ezra Fell
Mun: Katie/rosenritter
Plot specific: N~


Recently, I popped in* for a quick visit to my shop in Soho to see how things were going. The young man I hired to look after the place while I attend to my duties here hadn't once turned the sign from "CLOSED" to "OPEN", exactly as I requested. It's so very refreshing when youths of today prove themselves capable of following such simple directions.

While I was in the area, I overheard a small group of young Muggles discussing something they called "the dubstep". I presume it's a dance of some sort, but if anyone knows any further details, I would be most obliged to hear about it. If it's at all like the gavotte, I would be quite interested in learning it.

* - quite literally, a little spot of Apparition humour there

You know, I don't think I'll ever get you and that 'store' of yours.

And you have got to stop that, your jokes are as bad as that muggle magic of yours.

Have you even sold a book in the last, I don't know, ten years?

Kind of a mockery to what you're actually capable of, don't you think?
responsibleforglasgow: (I want to break free from your lies)

[personal profile] responsibleforglasgow 2012-11-18 06:54 am (UTC)(link)
Why you don't just make your own personal library at home instead is beyond me. You do know this, right?

I wouldn't call small dogs in cuddly jumpy precious, in any stretch of the word.
arrogantalloy: (T: 015 Yeah you know that's wrong)

[personal profile] arrogantalloy 2012-11-17 08:08 am (UTC)(link)
Why are you hiring a guy to make sure the sign isn't changed to open? Isn't that a waste of money, I mean the sign's not going to unexpectedly change to open on its own.
arrogantalloy: (T: 013 raised eyebrows)

[personal profile] arrogantalloy 2012-11-17 08:39 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, not an object for me, either. But I don't hire people to do nothing all day. Then put them in storage where muggles in Soho can't get at them?
arrogantalloy: (T: 012 dubious look)

[personal profile] arrogantalloy 2012-11-17 09:12 am (UTC)(link)
Well, I don't spend all that time fondling grumpy literature. You're a wizard, I'm sure you can out magic a book.
arrogantalloy: (T: 008 Come on really?)

[personal profile] arrogantalloy 2012-11-18 07:38 am (UTC)(link)
You got them into the store, didn't you? So you should be able to get them into storage.

Not much of a dilemma.
arrogantalloy: (T: 018 Hey come one)

Isn't the challenge half the fun?

Dubstep is a kind of music, sir.
strongestoftheturks: (Facepalm)

[personal profile] strongestoftheturks 2012-11-17 03:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Sort off. A little. Maybe.

It's hard to explain.
strongestoftheturks: (Are you for real)

[personal profile] strongestoftheturks 2012-11-18 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe?

It's just moving to the beat, sir. There's no set pattern of moves.
strongestoftheturks: (Stand my ground)

[personal profile] strongestoftheturks 2012-11-18 01:32 am (UTC)(link)
It's easier, I think.
strongestoftheturks: (Normal)

[personal profile] strongestoftheturks 2012-11-18 01:42 am (UTC)(link)
Is being proper, practical sir?
strongestoftheturks: (Getting ready)

[personal profile] strongestoftheturks 2012-11-18 02:04 am (UTC)(link)
Dancing isn't a job though.
strongestoftheturks: (Facepalm)

[personal profile] strongestoftheturks 2012-11-20 01:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Sorry sir. That's not what I meant.

Dancing isn't a job to everyone.

omg I love you ade Crowley-mun both so much for this.

[personal profile] marshall_lee 2012-11-17 04:39 pm (UTC)(link)
I really don't think dubstep would be your thing sir. It's a type of music..not really a dance.
And I can sum up how it goes pretty easily! It sounds mostly like this:

[Voice continuation from him imitating the backbeat of dubstep]

WUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUB!

Yep that's pretty much it. I'm a musician myself and even I don't care for it.
It's mostly played in dance clubs though, so it's not really an incredibly mainstream thing.

Well, I'm more of a rock and roll and grunge loving kind of guy. I like the classics though too. Dubstep is popular mostly among teenagers and early twenty-somethngs at the moment and has been for the past couple of years.

I agree that modern music is definitely trend based. At the moment it's all electronically enhanced stuff. Who knows what they'll be into a year or so from now.

Oh really? Do you know how to read sheet music? If you compare them side by side you can see how much they differ.
hipsdontlie: (Mmm?)

[personal profile] hipsdontlie 2012-11-20 04:57 am (UTC)(link)
[Pfft. You wrote Soho and that immediately gains Fleur's interest, particularly with the talk of a store and everything else.]

Darling, what kind of store do you run in Soho? And dubstep is... a form of music, it's rather crass and beat heavy, from what I have heard of it. I'm not terribly fond of it.

[She calls everyone darling or something, really.]
hipsdontlie: (You mean...)

Poor thing, though I guess the younger generation finds some enjoyment in giving themselves headaches and destroying their eardrums. I'll never understand it.

Oh, oh! I think I have seen it before, never had a chance to actually check it out, usually quite busy when I'm in New York.
