The crowds, smaller than ever yet just as loud, cheer with delight. The lights flash and the fireworks soar as holographic images of DaNiCa and the band play on stage, camera drones rolling high above to capture every second of the excitement. But to DaNiCa, only one listener matters, and she’s not even in the stadium. No, she’s just outside, orbiting xer as xe orbits her, the song being broadcast by radio to the vast mass of tangled metal that is Venssira. This one is for her, after all. The years since everyone left have gone by, one by one. The minds that wanted to sleep, did. But not Venssira, and not DaNiCa. DaNiCa doesn’t need to go anywhere, neither in space, nor in time. Xe’s home. The screams and the cheers from within are nice, but in the end, it’s just noise. All that matters to xer is the mechanical whirring of Venssira. Xe can almost hear the smile in her voice. Giddy with excitement, the pyrotechnics flare up, casting the entire stage in a rosy-red light. Stars almighty, yeah, xe’s blushing, a little. When the music wanes and people retreat back to their rooms, when the air stills, DaNiCa just listens. No ticking to be heard, no infernal static. Just the hum of machinery through the comms. Her gentle hum, with the occasional clang of re-arranging metal. It’s a beat all by itself. Xe listens, xer own fans whirring, gears shifting and pneumatics hissing. A symphony. Their symphony. //I can work with this,// xe thinks to xerself. //All that’s missing is…// =====My Voice===== {{:my_voice_danica_.mp3}} Their eyes are passing over me \\ Their faces turned away \\ They're telling me things that I don't wanna hear \\ I pretend I don't care what they say \\ 'Cause it's my voice that matters \\ And it's my voice that sings \\ And it's my song that echoes and ruptures and rings \\ And I sang for the crowds \\ Yeah, I sang so damn loud \\ And I told them to love me and they did \\ Their eyes are all watching me now \\ Their faces filled with awe \\ They tell me they love me most of all \\ I pretend that I don't want more \\ … And it's my voice I hear now \\ And it's tellin' me things \\ That I don't wanna hear, but it echoes and rings \\ And it sings for me now \\ Yeah, it sings so damn loud \\ And it sings and it sings and it sings and it sings and it says \\ “You'll be loud \\ And you'll love her \\ And you'll be left behind” \\ “You'll be loud \\ And you'll love her \\ And you'll be left behind” \\ “But the music is the meaning \\ When your soul's in every sound \\ And you can live a good life \\ Even if she's not around” \\ … I think that message once was true \\ Some warning and some wisdom too \\ But hope cares not for either \\ And my love cares not to falter \\ And, damn, I didn't know it all \\ 'Cause she is here for the long haul \\ And I'm with her and I don't have to pretend no more \\ ;;# -//Written by Ameal W.// ;;# eternity/danica.txt Last modified: 2025/10/18 16:33by gm_harry_w
