[Ty Joo]

Aiko seemed to lighten up a lot more now. All that sadness seemed to have been lifted away. Her giggle was always nice to hear, signaling she had now been in a better mood. Her scrunched nose was just so cute. Although the two looked a bit on the crazy side, with their widened out grins and such, Ty didn't mind it one bit. He was sure Aiko probably didn't mind it all too much either. In fact, this was who they were. They were being themselves, and that was all anyone could ever ask of them. Of course, this place was suppose to be a place to listen to music, and browse through new CD's and such, but it didn't mean you can just enjoy yourself here by acting silly. You're never too old to have fun, that was Ty's philosophy.

Some strangers had been looking at them shortly after. It was to be expected of course. They all seemed to deem the two as a bunch of crazy people, just a bunch of freaks. Aiko just turned around and stuck her tongue at them. Again, she just looked adorable. She returned her sapphire colored gaze shortly afterwards. Ty just chuckled lightly at what she did. At least she knew how to just be herself, and enjoy life as it is. "You know, you don't really have to worry about how other people see us as. As long as we're both just having fun and being ourselves, it doesn't really matter how other people perceive of us." Ty paused, and smiled. "Then again, that was pretty funny what you did at first. Guess they had it coming to them."

Aiko had bounced on her shoes again. A habit of hers probably. She then popped a question out. "So, you went through the trauma of listening to my taste of music. How 'bout you show me what you listen to." Ty smiled. He was going to give an answer that probably wouldn't help answer her question to well. "I listen to a little of everything actually." Ty chuckled. "That didn't help you much did it?" Ty joked. "Well, recently, I've been getting into country music a bit more than usual. Let's just say, it gives me good thoughts." Ty smiled as he spoke those words. Of course, he had been listening to more country now because of Haleigh. Her influence on him was just very significant. He was always thinking of her, even at this exact moment.

Aiko loved being crazy, mad and outrageous. She jut hoped that Ty noticed that she liked it and did not judge her. but from the first impressions she had from him, good first impressions, she doubted that he would comment badly on her behaviours, and felt that maybe he might even join in. She just loved it when she acted childlike with people, it took her mind away from bad things. She was the same when it came to Aaron, although her and Aaron had a stronger bond. He was like her older brother, and she adored him. But she hoped that her bond with Ty would grow, and he would become her friend, someone she could act foolishly with. For she was the “Peter Pan in her world”, and didn’t want to grow up.

Aiko melted into Ty’s chuckle, and allowed it to lift her mood even higher. She flashed him a large grin, and blew her air away from her face. Although it didn’t work. She frowned and tried again, but again it refused to move. She moved it quickly with her hand, and laughed inside. All that showed outside though, was the large pearly grin. You know, you don't really have to worry about how other people see us as. As long as we're both just having fun and being ourselves, it doesn't really matter how other people perceive of us. She smiled at him, and nodded, taking in his advice. Maybe he was starting to become a mood lifter for Aiko…a mentor. She opened her mouth to reply but closed it when he spoke again after his pause. Then again, that was pretty funny what you did at first. Guess they had it coming to them. She laughed. Yeh they should have. And I’ll stop worrying from now on. She smiled up at him.

She waited for him to answer her question, and she was very interested to hear what he had to say about his choice in music. It was one thing that they had in common, music. I listen to a little of everything actually she nodded, thinking that was his answer. She didn’t pull a face however, but thought that it wasn’t a very good answer, considering she was looking for a specific genre. That didn't help you much did it she joined in with his chuckle, but didn’t want to say no or anything, thinking it was rude. Well, recently, I've been getting into country music a bit more than usual. Let's just say, it gives me good thoughts Now that was an answer Aiko was looking for and she beamed him a very bubbly smile. She wondered if there was a reason why he had started listening to country. Country…I haven’t heard that in ages. We should go listen to it. She smiled, and turned and nodded her head to the country area, signalling to Ty that she was very interested in listening to country. She was telling the truth, it had been a couple of years since she had listened to country music, but then again, her definition of country ended at Carrie Underwood. But she was the type of girl who never said no to new things.

Aiko had been more of the childish, never seemingly want to grow up type. Ty found amusement and joy from it all. After all, she would be able to help Ty satisfy his childish side that resided within him. She was just like that little sister that you could never ever get control over. The one that always would be childish and fun to be around. He felt like he made a new friend today, one that was worth having. Although he wasn't too sure about her background, she seemed to be a cheerful person in general, just with those couple of skeletons hidden in her closet, as everyone has. They've just met, but it's fine. Friendships always have to start somewhere.

Aiko flashed a big and nice smile, while blowing the air away from her hair that had been irritating her face. She failed with the first few attempts, but eventually she ended up using her hand to fix it. Although she frowned for second due to frustration, she returned to her smiling mood shortly afterwards. Always cute, and always adorable. How Ty could just picture Aiko to be a little sibling of his, if he'd had one. What he didn't realize, he was basically preaching all this philosophical sayings to her. It made him sound old, and probably perhaps even boring. Whatever it was, it made him sound like a guardian of hers, a mentor. Yeah they should have. And I’ll stop worrying from now on. Ty then returned a smile. "Now that's what I want to hear." Ty nodded.

Ty sort of felt that Aiko wanted to know what type of music he had listened to. After all, music really defines a person. Their personality, who they are, and what they're like. Music just has that sort of identification. It wasn't the case for Ty. He listened to everything, I guess that's why it made him so ambitious, so strong, to have lived through it all, through the tougher childhood and teenager years he had to overcome. He could tell that his answer didn't really help her out at all, and didn't satisfy her. After he gave a more legit, better answer, she then beamed a smile. Now getting a bit more interested in the whole thing. Country…I haven’t heard that in ages. We should go listen to it. Ty nodded. "Yeah, country isn't half bad at all. I can see why.. actually nevermind. Let's go take a listen then." Ty smiled, thinking of Haleigh at the time, which made him pause for a moment. He didn't really want to annoy Aiko with all his lovestruck comments he might've made. It was just all the more unnecessary. Aiko started heading over to the country section, and she had a pretty optimistic look on her face, an expression that she really wanted to go take a listen. Ty just smiled. She looked like an excited little girl hitting the candy store for the first time in ages. Shortly after, he followed along with her.

[Aiko Summers]

Aiko looked for amusing things in everything, if a guy was amusing, that meant that she would have a great time with him. Ty seemed to have been finding this whole thing amusing, so that was good. Aiko had wanted to meet someone, other that Aaron, who could really understand her and have fun with her, and now she had someone. But in order for them to be friends truly, they had to know each other’s secrets. Aiko hated secrets in a relationship, so she would always open up to people she trusted. She was just starting to open up to Aaron, even after all the days out enjoying time together. So she wasn’t expecting things to progress quickly. Afterall, Rome wasn’t built in a day.

She wanted to see the adventurous side of Ty, the mysterious side, and the funny side. she knew that, from the look of his face, that he thought she was cute, probably from the way she blew her hair away. As she looked up at Ty she felt a sense of a brotherly vibe from him. Was he another Aaron? Could, in time, they be close friends that could look after each other, and have a laugh along the way. Even though she was getting away from her evil mother, Aiko still needed help. She liked the sound of having someone else as a mentor, as someone to inspire her and guide her, and to catch her when she fell. Ty had a different personality as Aaron of course, so it wasn’t as if he was going to be the same as him. Ty seemed to by wise, he seemed to be filling her with optimistic things and trying to turn her frowns upside down. She liked that, she liked how he tried to help her even if they had just met. Now that's what I want to hear. He had said whist nodding. Again, she felt reassured, and suddenly proud of herself that she will stay happy from now on. Her life was getting better. All thanks to the new people that she was meeting in her old broken town of Arden Falls.

Aiko defiantly wanted to hear the music Ty listened to. She loved how music reflected a person. Aiko listened to everything…so she thought that meant that she was adventurous and…mad…random too! but country was something that she hadn’t heard that much. She didn’t know why, country was very expressive and very inspirational. Yeah, country isn't half bad at all. I can see why.. actually never mind. Let's go take a listen then. Aiko frowned. Why had he started to say something but then forgot about it and said, “Never mind”? She didn’t want to ask though, it was probably something to do with country, and a memory. It must have been a good memory seeing as a smile was on his face. She returned his smile and turned around, walked over to the country section and flipped through the CDs. It was like going from her own city to a foreign one, as she wasn’t used to the artists and didn’t know them properly. As Ty approached her she looked and him and smiled, before screwing her face up as she thought, looking at the back of a random CD. What singer do you recommend then? She said, looking up at him before looking at the selection of CDS.

OOC: Sorry it took soo long =[[/font][/size]

Aiko was a different person, one that contained a whole different personality from the norm. Well, more to like about her of course. She wasn't like all the other girls Ty had met through how short lifespan, one that consists of a little over two decades. Generally, she seemed to be a happy, jolly teenage girl. A good quality to have of course, since smiling had always been a lot easier to look at than frowning. She had also been the more emotional, mood switching types, but you know, different people have different personalities. It wasn't one that bothered him too much. She seemed to be the open type, one that was also quite understanding, but not the the level of Haleigh of course. Haleigh was just in a whole another league, at least in Ty's opinion. He became too biased over anything, if he would compare Haleigh to someone else. It just didn't work out too well. Aiko was someone different, not someone he would grow too fondly attached to, nor someone he would grow intimate feelings for at any given time. She was just more of, well, a sister type. His young grasshopper. Ty liked the idea of picturing her as his little sister. How he'd always wanted to have one, so that he could annoy the stuffing out of her whenever he was bored. After all, that was what big sisters and brothers do right? Annoy the younger siblings, but also take care of them at the same time. It was that mutual family thing, or at least that was how Ty envisioned it to be.


In many ways or less, Aiko was sort of like Ty. The two were the examining type, the ones who would study their colleagues every exact movements and body language to figure out who they were, and what type of person they were. I guess Ty could be accused of this, since he usually does do this, but I guess this was something he shared mutually with Aiko. She had the makings of becoming that little sister he could pick on at random times, while still look after, and pass on some random knowledge to her. You know, keep her happy, and make her life that much more enjoyable. Big brothers, it was one big responsibility, and also one big job. The two had just only met however, and it would take some time for them to grow a bit more close to one another. You know, do a little research on each other's backgrounds, find where they're coming from. This wasn't the case for Haleigh of course, it was just that type of situation with her. She was special, and the two just hit up quite easily. One that was too abnormal, but nonetheless, something that Ty would always thank luck for. At this moment in time now, all he was here to do was to cheer her up. Keep Aiko in her jolly mood. I mean, Aiko probably only came here to get away from reality, you know, to drown it all out with loud, deafening music. Just the way Ty liked it. Nothing could beat it, well, maybe loud music that made the ears bleed, but that was something else. Who knows. Maybe Aiko had someone else to lean on, and to go to, when stuff was going down. Perhaps someone else like Ty, someone else she met in Arden Falls. It was very likely in fact. She was easy to get along with at least, which made it all the much better.


As they say, the type of music a person listens to, can define their personality. In several cases, one such as Ty's, it would be very hard to determine a guy's personality if he listens to everything. Wouldn't that make him a multi-personality sociopath? Hopefully not, in this case, he'd probably gotten all the good qualities of it all. Being a drag he was, he didn't really give Aiko an exact answer to her questions, leaving her to frown for a moment. She probably listened to all types of music, as it wasn't uncommon nowadays. Music was music after all, and in the end, the finish product was always art, well at least most of the time. Aiko returned smiling short after, and walked over towards the country section, as Ty made a small reference on the type of music he liked. She went over there, flipping through various CDs, looking sort of excited, probably just wanting Ty to spill out a whole lot more. Having Ty just leave her hanging, was probably an indirect sign of showing Aiko that he didn't trust her all too much yet, nor was he close enough to her to be telling her things about his personal life just yet. After all, it was indeed about Haleigh, and he was already indirectly alluding to her several times already, maybe Aiko had already picked up on it. What singer do you recommend then? Aiko asked. Ty pondered about various mainstream country artists at the moment, then replied with a smile. "Well, give Rascal Flatts a good listen, and Tim McGraw. The two are pretty popular actually, you might've heard of them from here to there recently." Ty said, while browsing through random CDs himself. He wasn't too much of a diehard fan of country to be knowing every single thing about it just yet, but he was catching on to the craze. He just needed a bit more time to get himself more knowledgeable in that subject.


OOC: It's okay. I see you've been busy lately.
