Tianna sings

Around 10:00 you notice Tianna vamping the DJ and holding a memory stick in her hand. He looks halfway dubious and halfway drooling. Eventually she drops behind his stand where the table curtain hides her, but you can tell from the look on the guy's face exactly what she's doing. When he slumps in his chair she stands up and goes to the microphone.

"Hey, everybody, how about some more personal music?"

There's a mix of groans and enthusiasm.

"Don't worry, this isn't karaoke; I've been practicing."

Scattered laughs.

"Okay, here we go!"

She starts into a high-energy rock tune, which she totally nails. By the first chorus the kids are singing along and dancing and the chaperones are getting swamped. After that she hauls out the oldies - her version of "We Will Rock You" uses subtle hip thrusts to imply what word she wants to replace "Rock" with. Halfway through "Physical" the chaperones have had enough and pull her off the stage.

Once she's received her lecture about propriety, you saunter up.

"Did you like it?" she asks.

"Nicely done, Tia. You couldn't have livened up the party more if you'd spiked the punch."

Tianna blushes. "I was wondering more about my singing; do you think I could be an idol?"

"I think you can be the goddess the idol was built for. I wish I had a voice that good."

"You do, Ari. I've heard you singing in the shower when you don't think anyone's listening. And you get a lot of voice training from warming up the crowds. Actually, everybody's got a great voice, though Jess's is different enough that it's more suited to solo with."

"What, are you suggesting we become a singing group?"

"We could; the option's open, and we'd have the boys eating out of our pants."

"Don't you mean hands?"

"You let the boys eat where you want, Ari."
