I don't talk about it much, but Gabriel and Alis (and Hyde, though he engages in it less) are both ridiculously capable of creating music. It's a necessary part of their jobs as Guardians, that they need to have a toolbox of Things What Fix Kat1, and it is not a secret that music is a _really_ powerful way of doing so.
So every once in a while, when I am in the right shape of broken (or sometimes when I am very very lucky otherwise) I will listen to music, and instead of it coming from something as insignificant and impersonal as my ipod, the two of them will take up arms and create it for me.
Alis plays hard and fast and loud, fiddle and drums mostly, but also sometimes quick progressions on the guitar or frantic pounding on the piano. Gabriel is more long and smooth and comforting, and he likes playing both kinds of bass, as well as violin3 and more classical piano.
They jam ridiculously well together. This is partly a function of their Guardianship --they were [designed/chosen/gathered/birthed] to work well together after all4-- but mostly a function of their moirailship.
I'm sorry, our what?
I thought you guys were gonna stay in the footnotes.
That was before you started talking about our relationship and making up words. Why is Gabriel falling over laughing?
Because Gabe is better at speaking Homestuck than you are. I assure you, calling you two pale is a compliment.
"Pale?"
Alis love, don't push it. Moirails are absurdly close friends, they take care of each other, have a mutually beneficial -or dependent- relationship, and function better as a twosome than singularly. It's also De's favourite form of relationship in media.
Examples?
Well, besides the canon material, Holmes and Watson, Mako and Raleigh, any Herald and their Companion, pretty much any well-written Doctor and their Companion but especially Ten and Donna, Us, Ford and Arthur--
I think that is not true. And not just because I <3 them rather than <>. But really, Ford is more like a wonderfully abusive older brother to Arthur, just how far can he push this poor bloke until his mind explodes. Zaph and Ford might be closer? Dunno.
Whatever. Anyways, you get the gist. Oh! Oh, it's the relationship Dante and Geran have, there you go.
In the name of good performance, I very vaguely object to you using unpublished Sorcy!canon as examples, as the rest of the Readers have no idea what you mean. But yes, that does sum it up rather nicely.
ANYWAYS.
...
Actually, I don't remember. That is what happens when the denizens get loose, oh, it's awful!
It is not. You love us very much because we make your life livable.
That hits a little close to home right now.
It was meant to. We make you existant and therefore you are never allowed to complain about our occasional hijacking of your livejournal, especially as we do it so rarely.
Speaking of existant, shouldn't you be accomplishing things?
Ugh no.
AHEM. I SAID "SHOULDN'T YOU BE ACCOMPLISHING THINGS, NOW?"
...
Yes ma'am! Ta!

MOOP!
1: They2 say Kat, as does Alis. I say Deus. Equal parts submission and annoyance. --G
2: This is particularly difficult pronoun usage. Gabriel is the one writing in dark blue just there, he is correctly using my preferred pronoun of 'they' to indicate that I do not usually call myself God because jegus, there is only so egotistical I can be. But yes, Gabriel does have minor angelic associations, and so sees it as the only word fit for his Alpha.
3: Hi, Alis here, I'd like to point out (since Sor didn't, and Gabe's wrong, I hardly ever callherthem Kat) that there's a really big difference between fiddle and violin, even though they're essentially the same instrument. Gabriel, for instance, doesn't dance
Yeah, but that doesn't mean I'm playing a different instrument. I mean, I agree, but I don't think you're being remotely clear. And I do dance sometimes! I dance with Deus when they need it, and I can dance while playing, I'm just slower about it.
You dance like an eighteen year old goth girl.
I...Is that an insult? I honestly can't tell.
4: Specifically, Gabriel's job is to bring me up and Alis's is to keep me from going further down. She yells, he comforts. Both bicker, but usually not when I need them, so much as when they're just casually around.
