Rocker

Doryan: Sharkey, have you seen Voignus's sunglasses - oh.

Sharkey: Heeeeeyyyyyy, Doryan! Feels like months since the last time I saw you, how you been?

Doryan: It's been 5 hours. Hitting the charr-nip again, are we?

Sharkey: Nah, nah! I've been clean for over a year, I swear. Just settling into the lifestyle of a big-time rock star!

Doryan: A rock star. You? Since when?

Sharkey: Well, don't you remember that big concert I played at the Gilded Hollow a couple of weeks back? Everyone's talking about it!

Doryan: I don't remember, but you're right that everyone's talking about it. You set up a portal, and played one note for a solid hour straight. It was noteworthy because you demonstrated that the Exalted indeed have a formal system for filing noise complaints.

Sharkey: It was experimental! I'm an incredible musician, of numerous instruments and with a lovely singing voice. I'm a band all my own! Remember that time in Lion's Arch, near the Western Ward? I totally upstaged those posers!

Doryan: Well, I suppose that's true, in a literal sense. In that you were upstage of them, for approximately 5 seconds before they pulled you off the stage so hard you were flung halfway to the Commodore's Quarter.

Sharkey: Oh yeah! Good thing that minstrel was there to break my fall. That guy's a class act!

Doryan: Not for 6-8 more weeks, he ain't.

Sharkey: Yeah, yeah, laugh it up. I have a lot of fans in Lion's Arch, I'll have you know! Half of those revelers are singing MY songs right now!

Doryan: Would that be from before or after you singed your tail because you were playing too close to their bonfire?

Sharkey: Both, and I'm getting a little sick of these critiques! You can't deny the power of my music after that stunning performance in the Verdant Brink!

Doryan: Well, I'll give you that much. You and those frogs could really play the lute.

Sharkey: That's right!

Doryan: You played that lute so well, in fact, you drew 2 mordrem squads, a tribe of hostile Itzel, and a Vinetooth to our base. And where is that lute playing frog now?

Sharkey: ...in the belly of a Vinetooth?

Doryan: In the belly of a Vinetooth. Now give me that silly guitar, you're supposed to be doing training exercises with Voignus!

Sharkey: Aww, he's never gonna notice missing a training session or five! I have a career to pursue!

Doryan: He's blind, not dumb, you idiot. Believe you me, he'll know.

Sharkey: Well, what do you know?

Voignus: Hey.

Sharkey: Hey Voignus. Now anyways, I think you're missing the bigger picture here, Doryan, and that bigger picture is entirely composed of meeeEEEYEEEEEHEEEHI Voignus!

Voignus: Hi. You seen my glasses?

Sharkey: Ummm no of course not?

Voignus: Doryan, is he wearing my glasses right now?

Doryan: He's wearing your glasses right now.

Sharkey: TRAITOR!

Doryan: He's figuring that he's a rock star.

Voignus: Hmm, I certainly have heard of those before as a thing that exist in Tyria.

Sharkey: That's right!

Voignus: I've also heard of the babe.

Sharkey: What babe?

Doryan: No.

Voignus: The babe with the power.

Sharkey: What power?

Doryan: NO.

Voignus: The power of voodoo.

Sharkey: Who do?

Voignus: You do.

Doryan: STOP.

Sharkey: Do what?

Voignus: Remind me of the babe.

Doryan: SKIP IT!

Voignus: Fine, fine. Dance magic, DANCE!

Sharkey: Wait that's not the next lineYEEEYEEEGHGHHGHHHGHGHKK

Doryan: An electrifying performance, Voignus.

Voignus: Indeed. I'll be taking those glasses back now - looks like Sharkey's missing training again today. Should still be alive though.

Sharkey: *cough*

Voignus: That's the spirit. I'm gonna get some tacos.

Doryan: Sharkey, your tail's on fire again.

Tally-ho!

Initially there wasn't a cute story due to rockin' out in Bloodstone Fen, but as I gathered more shots I found some inspiration.

Happy content patch, all!
