Magnolia twiddled her thumbs as she looked over at her best friend.

“You can go on ahead, Angel.”

Magnolia said, her voice causing the taller man to look over at her.

“Ya’ sure, Mags?”

Angel asked, but Magnolia could see that he was already twitching to go find Husk, whom he had been texting with all day during the show.

“Yeah.” Magnolia assured, smiling up at her best friend. “I need to work through some thoughts anyway, and as much as I love you, it’ll be easier without you fawning over Husk.”

Angel stuck out his tongue, but he looked at Magnolia, with a fragile softness in his eyes reserved only for her. “if you need me, just call me, alright? my phone is always on.”

“I know, I know.” Magnolia said, smiling when Angel brightened and nodded his head.

Magnolia sighed when Angel ran off, going to get himself some. she then sucked on her teeth, it was time to address those dark thoughts she had banging around in her head.

“Oh, hello!”

Magnolia froze at the new voice, and her eyes widened at the sight of the man who was now standing near her, but she had no idea where he came from.

“Miss May, right? I’ve been waiting and waiting to meet you!”

Magnolia took a step back, glaring. “who the fuck are ya’?” she hissed, her southern accent peeking through. “how did you get back here?”

“Oh my! how rude of me!” the man piped up, moving back to give Magnolia space. “Chestnut! a pleasure! my agent should have called yours?”

Magnolia thought for a moment, Angel did say something about some famous singer asking about her, he must have, but she had been so caught up in her own head that she hadn’t even really heard anyone, let alone Angel, up until after her show today. “I must have missed that...” she murmured, searching her mind, Chestnut, that couldn’t be his real name, could it? but she felt like she had in fact seen the young man currently rolling back and forth on the balls of his booted feet as she spoke before.

Chestnut seemed to have noticed Magnolia’s hesitation since he took her by the shoulders, excitement in his voice. “Siren’s Song! you’ve heard of it before, right? I don’t wanna scare you, but I’m a big fan, Miss May! and I’d love to talk to you!”

Magnolia froze again. Siren’s Song? the Siren’s Song? the famous one she heard Cherri and Angel continuously listening to whenever it was either of their turns to control the radio? the one she found herself listening to on repeat sometimes? that Siren’s Song?

I...kinda' got carried away with writing this...oops
It didn't need the Angel bit, but I saw the chance to write good best friends

Realized last night that hey, Chestnut is probably also a famous singer in Influencer AU, and maybe he and Magnolia do a thing together sometime?

The "we ate people in life" gang, yup, they got songs for days, Alastor is part of it even, so yes, all songs, all of them
