Those dark eyes lit up and he nodded quickly. He very much wanted to hear more of the music. Though if he had any where he came from... "The whales sing to talk to each other."

[floralias]

"Oh, that must sound amazing!" Will's, obviously, only ever heard recordings of whale song, but they sounded beautiful to him. It must be different when you're actually under the water to hear them.

While all this skittered through his mind, Will wiped his hands off on a napkin and then retrieved his guitar. He strummed it a few times just to let Paio hear the notes resonate in the air.

"I can sing for you, too, if you want."

[timidcuriosity]

He was immediately entranced. Just those notes hanging in the air had him drawn in and he forgot to be afraid as he got as close as he could. Wrapping his arms around his legs, he nodded eagerly.

Please. He very much wanted to hear him sing for him. He wanted more of the pretty music the human could make.

Was there anything more pleasant than an eager audience? Maybe, but not in this moment! Smiling over at Paio, he finally settled on a to start with. One of his own, of course, because they were always the first to pop into his head.

He was enchanted by the music, watching with rapt attention. It was like he couldn't even bring himself to blink for fear of missing something. Without even thinking about even scooted close enough that the man could have touched him if he wanted to.

So beautiful. He loved music like this. And though he couldn't understand the words that was fine. He was so happy to just listen.

When he finished, Will smiled at his enraptured audience. What a sweet thing Paio was, so obviously new to things like picnics and guitars.

"Do you sing, Paio? I can teach you a song, if you'd like."

[timidcuriosity]

"I've never done that before." Sung that was. Mostly he kept quiet when he was in the ocean to not draw attention to himself. To keep predators from finding him and eating him. Or humans from fishing him and eating him!

There were a lot of dangers out there.

"...Is it...okay if I learn?"

[floralias]

"I think it's okay. I'll be very happy to teach you if you want to learn." Will gave him a warm smile, nodding as he spoke. "Music is very important to me, so I love being able to share it with others."
