The night is still young and a cool wind blew through the Susukino District; kicking up the cloth awnings, long and wild hair of the girls who spent far-too much time on their make-up, and chilling those who weren't accustomed to the weather to the bone. Kaori fit 2 of the three categories as she held her hand upon her head to make sure the small, yet expensive, accouterments from flying away or making far too much noise. She walked through the district, getting look-after-look from hungry guys (and even a couple gals) looking for (what they would perceive as) a cheap score. Kaori wasn't too interested in these nobodies who have far inferior looks and even far-more inferior personalities. They weren't the strong, silent type that she had romanticized about since her youth so they weren't suitable for her. There was one particular store that she wanted to go to; one with a big neon microphone as it's sign.
The sign, itself, flickered a few times while giving off a dull buzzing noise with each flicker. The last time she went to a karaoke bar was for a brief stay in Tea, where a certain specific puppet-man ruined the time for her. Thankfully, behind the steel curtain of Kumogakure, she felt safe knowing that he wouldn't come busting in through a random, expensive window to sexually harass her. Certainly, his candid personality COULD be quite charming if it happened every now-and-then, but having it switched to on and left on got annoying and grated at her.
Entering the establishment, Kaori closed the door and fixed everything about her from her disheveled hair to her disheveled clothes. Clearing her throat, she walked up and ordered a room, a rather big room at that, to sing. She also ordered a round of drinks big enough for 4 people to the room in about 10 minutes. She wasn't expecting any company as the entire round of drinks was for herself (and herself only). Making her way into the room, she sat down and started to remove some of the additional clothing that she wore used as 'compliments' to her design, leaving her with just the bare bit of clothing that she'd wear on a day-to-day basis; besides she wore all of those mainly for the cold (and the fact that it looked cute).
She rummaged through her bag and pulled out a microphone and turned it on. A couple taps on the microphone tested that it worked, being able to hear the thumps over the speaker system. After taking a moment to flip through the song book, she found a specific song she wanted to sing. "Ooooh! They have this song here too!" Clearing her throat, she turned the song on and started to sing..

After the song was over, there was a knock on the door with Kaori speaking into the microphone saying "Come on in!" she said as a boy about her age came in, dressed in the usual fare of snazzy outfits holding a tray full of liquor and other assortments of alcohol. He came in, knelt down, and put the drinks upon the table. Kaori simply winked at the guy before he stopped to look at her, a blush sprawled across his cheeks, before nervously scooting out of the room, leaving the door slightly cracked. She flipped through the book to find another song and just kept flipping for a few moments. "The selection here is kinda wimpy, hmm. Tea's selection was SO much better!" she lamented before finding another good song.[Topic Opened. Anyone can join!]
