EVEREST
"No need to apologize." Everest calls in that same sing-song tone, only it's more melodious than it is playful or mocking. "I am sure there is a lot about me you don't realise." He adds, shrugging against his guitar. Pivoting slightly on the rock in order to face Isla, all the while his fingers continue to stroke up and down the neck of the guitar never once missing a note.
The drugs in his system have loosened every part of his body and with Dahlia's kiss having done the same for his mind the change in him is the sort of thing that separates Clark Kent from Superman.
"So, Isla..." Her name on his tongue sounds like the start of a lyric as his fingers dance easily across the frets as if he might play her closer to him with the right notes. "What's something about you that I haven't realised?"

the boards will still creak
the leaves will still die
the leaves will still die
