( it's not that she particularly wants to, but wanda takes a seat when prompted, beside him, and takes note of how his bed is like. it could... definitely be better. there's a spot of worry in her, in how his body moves and how he reacts to actions that should be no trouble at all for someone his age.
to be fair to eddie, it doesn't seem like something that he wants the conversation to focus on, so wanda keeps it cool and level, focusing instead on the mixtape situation before them.
there is wonder in her eyes as she looks over at the crate full of tapes, catching one as it nearly topples off to the side. she reads the name on the label, doesn't recognize it, and hands it back over. any worries about his state are forgotten. )
I don't mind what genre I'm listening to.
( music is music, and she enjoys it, especially now that she has a chance to find all sorts of tapes and bands singing in languages she's not familiar with. )
I'll take whatever you put together.
( there's something nice about that, after all, someone's own personal preference on tape. )
[ Eddie absolutely does not want to focus on the state of his physical health right now, which is why he’s quick to move on. He’s grateful for the lack of pushing on the subject, grateful for the guitar strings, and grateful to be educating someone on the art of the mixtape. ]
Alright, well that makes you my favorite type of customer.
[ Eddie grins as he begins pulling tapes from the crate, peering at each one in turn, scrutinizing each one carefully. He returns some to the crate and puts others to the side until he’s formed a little stack of about ten of them. Some tapes are older than others and some are clearly already mixtapes, labeled in Eddie’s jagged handwriting. ]
Then we’ll go in blind. Or—you will, I guess, which is cool. That’s kind of how a mixtape is supposed to be, if you ask me.
[ He pushes the stack towards Wanda. He’s purposefully picked out some more easily digestible albums, just because he’s aware that his heavier tastes aren’t for everyone. There’s a good variety, though. With some difficulty, he leans back to reach for a spiral notebook and a pen from his cabinets. ]
I’d normally say not to judge aa song by its title, but uh…we’re going for something here, so it’s fine. Read the track list and write down what vibes with you. Don’t worry if you don’t know it.
