[Of course Eleven stopped to watch each of his friends' performances. Had known Sylv was talented and even when he picked the story for Raida why it resonated with him, why it suited his friend.

But none of that prepared him to be swept up in it, through the song, his chest aching joy to see people participating. His eyes stung when the light was 'restored' and tears finally escaped him to hear 'Raida' speak to the audience.

Eleven stepped back behind the stage and when Sylvando appeared, shot him a weak, accusing glare. His voice held a strained quality to it, but he was smiling]

I have to give a speech tonight, you know.

[Sylvando chuckles warmly at seeing his young fiend so emotional.]

And I'm sure you'll do wonderfully, darling, especially with that fabulous bird of yours.

[Sylvando, as a rule, wasn't overly fond of birds, but for one as stunning as the aptly named Glorious he could make an exception.]

I'm just glad everyone enjoyed the show.

[bearshermark]

[He sniffs rather helplessly, lacking a handkerchief and dressed too nicely to risk his hands]

Yes. If not for Glorious, I don't know that I'd be doing this. But thank you so much again, for all the effort you've put into this. It means a great deal.

[Seeing the sniffling, Sylvando smiles and pulls a colorful handkerchief from the end of his sleeve and offers it to El. How did he keep it up there without it showing on his admittedly rather form-fitting shirt? Trade secret.]

I'm always glad to help a friend. And the little troupe I put together had such fun doing it, we're thinking of doing more shows together in the future.

And you know, if this all falls out as well as it looks like it's going to, maybe we could even make the festival an annual event, with different stories performed each year. Wouldn't that be fun?

[bearshermark]

[Eleven accepts the kerchief gratefully, rubbing around his face]

That's great- and that would be fun. We might not get to see it if we aren't here that long, but it would be nice to think that we helped in such a way that it becomes a sort of tradition.

[smilingarmor]

True, we might not be, but we can definitely get the ball rolling! Once things have had a chance to settle down from this one, you can talk to the priests and see what they think of the idea. I know I'd love to do something like this again if we got the chance.

[bearshermark]

[His head bobs in a short series of nods]

I'll definitely talk to them after, and see what they thought of all this. I'll let you know what they say.

[smilingarmor]

Excellent! I'll be waiting for the news with bated breath.

Now, tell me darling, what was your favorite part of the show?
