[It's Greg on screen. He's got a guitar with him, idly tuning it as he talks.]

So, you all know I'm a superhero, and you all know I'm a singer. Lately though, I've been doin' too much of the former and not enough of the latter. There's been some, mostly for my own amusement and to keep in practice, but if I'm honest I've always liked havin' an audience. Wouldn't have the job back home I do if I didn't.

So, just for fun, I'd figured I'd open myself up to requests. Or just some conversation if you ain't feelin' it.

Keep in mind though, if you're the type who ain't a fan of country? Anything you request probably'll end up that way. Not 100% my fault, the invisible intangible Stuff band I've got backin' me defaults to it.

"Ah know it ain't usually done by a man, but if you could find it in your heart ta sing I Fall to Pieces by Patsy Cline or anything by Dolly of course. Roy Orbison would do mah heart good too."

Was she sitting there with the screen propped up and literally her chin in her hands just eagerly waiting for sone crooning? Yes, she was. She was a sucker for certain things and this was one.

You got good taste, I'll give ya that. Patsy's always a good choice, and I'll even throw in a song by Dolly I've been meanin' to play since I got here.

[Which Dolly Parton song is probably obvious, but true to his word Greg gives the lady what she wants and starts off with a slow, mournful male rendition of Patsy Cline's I Fall To Pieces. It's a bit of a mood whiplash when the song ends and a piano starts up as Greg launches into 9 to 5.

Rogue had asked for Dolly and Greg had some subtle commentary about their hosts he wanted to make.]

The song might have been something to her on and off at times when things weren't so good with Remy, but now things were good and she could appreciate the song for the soulful work it was.

She sighed happily and applauded and whistled at the end, loud and raucous lest he wonder if his audience had really enjoyed the selection.

His own choice though caught her grinning and singing along with him.

"What a way ta make a livin'..."

Barely gettin' by, it's all takin' and no givin'...

[Greg's grinning right along with her. He hadn't planned on any impromptu duets when he'd decided to do this, but he's not going to complain about it.]

"They just use your mind, an' they never give you credit"

Oh, she was having entirely too much fun with this, her slightly raspy southern voice lending itself well to the song and singing in general. She would never do what he does, but she was a music lover at heart and this made her happy as a clam.

[Sadly, the song does eventually end. But it was a heck of a lot of fun while it lasted.]

Woo! You ever consider a career in music yerself there, Rogue? You'd be pretty good at it.

Oh you just delighted her, that smile is beaming a mile wide now.

"Ah'll leave the croonin' to the crooners, but ain't you just the sweetest thing for sayin it. S'wonder half the place ain' crushin' on you yet. Nothing like Southern charm."

Unfortunately for them, I already found my knight in shining armor. Somewhat literally, in fact.

Even if the man still doesn't get Clint Eastwood movies.

[just_rogue]

"Yeah, ah know exactly what ya mean, well more like knight in cool long leather coat but same thing."

Remy's stance on Eastwood movies was up for debate though. But knowing Greg had a sweetie gave her a happy sigh, she was a hopeless romantic at heart.
