There was a lot of work to do, but the splicing of tracks was actually fairly easy since Nox had been playing with music tracks for as long as he could remember. It was the first piece of software Aurora wrote for him. It allowed him to pull the words out of a song, convert the melody to just the notes and put it back in. Splicing together a few songs was nothing.
Nox called Thalia in the middle of it all and probably talked her ear off. He was more than happy to share his crush and his day with her - she seemed willing to listen. It was the first friend other than Sage who he'd shared things like that with. And if you thought about it Sage just knew cause he stalked you. Which wasn't exactly the same thing. But Nox hung up and got back to work losing track of the time.
The costumes were proving to be easier than originally anticipated thanks to Sage's updates. He had them dancing around on screen maybe not exactly how he wanted but the costumes moved and he had a little audience before he was done with it all. Raffe knocked on the door and stood grinning in the doorway. Nox smiled as he purposefully twirled the figure on holo display between them before looking up. "Hey there stranger. Whacha doing? Wanna help play dress up?" Nox chuckled those were words he had never thought he'd utter. His mother was probably looking down on him with both pride and disgust. Pride because he was doing something other than hunting, and disgust because he chose to do it at a burlesque, strip club, a cabaret. While not the Russian ballet, Nox was actually looking forward to his first production.
