Morale/While It Lasts

Timeline: current

ON:

Still down on Risa, enjoying every minute of leave time and the night life, Billi had her own little section of males cordoned off just for her. Of course, after her trist with Silk she wondered if others could match his stamina and sexual awareness. He had been very--Orion, with his sexual appetite. Not often an Orion female could say that about another humanoid. So, wearing an outfit reminiscent of the holovid character Lara Croft (Jolie version), with the Underarmor shirt and shorts, backed by lace-up, designer combat boots with more of a Doc Martin look. The reason; she was an entertainer. Singing, dancing, twerking and keeping morale up. Her love for Human music made it all too simple to belt out tunes, and with most that she sang there was an element of herself behind the lyrics. Creating a holoband she then went to work singing and dancing up on stage, playing to the crowd and scoring yum-yum points with the male members of the Indy. So, she ahd to sing this one first.

Who you talking to man

{OA: Ciscandra Nostalghia}

Who you talkin' to man?
Who you talkin' to man?

Who do you think you are?
Some kind of superstar
Who do you think I be?
A pretty beggar on my knees

What's that across your eyelid
What's that across your tongue
Which funeral comes marchin'
When the holy deed is done (yea)

And I wanna' know
Who you talkin' to man?
And I wanna' know
Who you talkin' to man?
And I wanna' know
Who you talkin' to man?

I'm gonna' grab your throat
I'm gonna' take your worth
I'm gonna' tell you something
Something you've never heard

Who knows you better than I
The one you've never known
I'll give you back your body
You can give me back my throne, (aii)

And I wanna' know
Who you talkin' to man?
And I wanna' know
Who you talkin' to man?

(Who you talkin' to man?)
(Who you talkin' to man?)

Hey, hey, hey
How do you like me now?
Hey, hey, hey
How do you like me now?
Hey, hey, hey
How do you like me now?
Hey, hey, hey
How do you like me now?

Hey, hey, hey
How do you like me now?
Hey, hey, hey
How do you like me now?
Hey, hey, hey
How do you like me now?
Hey, hey, hey
How do you like me now?

(Who you talkin' to man?)
(Who you talkin' to man?)

The crowd loved it with the cheers and whistles going out. With as drunk as some of them were she doubted they had even heard the music, simply cheering because everyone else was. That made her laugh internally. As long as they had fun and no violence, all was good. So, with that in mind she went into her next song. Something from the soul.

"Take Me Down"

{OA: The Pretty Reckless}

Been waitin' at these crossroads
Forever and a day
On a guy to buy my soul

I spend all night and day
How much harder can I play
You know I gave my life to Rock n' Roll

Here we go

Momma begged me please
Yes she got down on her knees
Said 'You'll burn in that Mississippi sun'
But I'm the only one that's standing here
So Mama don't you have no fear
I’m either last or I've already won..

Here I go

Take me down
Take me down
Take me down
Won't you take me down

Standing at the crossroads
A dried up pen in hand
The conversation went like this
'Tell me your desire why you pulled me from the fire
and we'll seal the deal with a kiss'
said 'I wanna raise the dead
Find a note that I can shred
On my walls I scrawl my gods
Don't care what happens when I die
As long as I'm alive
All I wanna do is rock, rock, rock!'

Take me down
Take me down
Take me down
Won't you take me down

Sign with the devil... x15

Take me down
Take me down
Take me down
Won't you take me down...

This time when she finished the crowd was ecstatic. The cheers and whistles were coming loud and proud, with even the inebriated starting to pay attention the hottie with the green skin and a great set of pipes. She had two more to spit out, then it would be time for a little moonlight skinny dipping.

God Be You

{OA: Nostalghia}

[Verse 1]
Someone diggin' in my head
Someone foolin' up my bed
Is it rapture that he wants?
Is it capture that I sought?

[Pre-Chorus]
God be willin', God be true
God be feeling, God be you
I want money in my bank
Gasoline in my tank
Can you give me what I need?
I'm breakin' bitches for the seed

[Chorus]
Would you die, die for me
Into the sea, into the sea
Would you die for me, baby?
Would you die, die for me
Into the sea, into the sea
Would you die for me, baby?

[Verse 2]
I ain't winnin', not yet dead
You can't starve me, I'm unfed
You look pretty when you need
I look nicer when I feed

[Pre-Chorus]
God be willin', God be true
Fuck my conscience, God be you

[Chorus]
Would you die, die for me
Into the sea, into the sea
Would you die for me, baby?
Would you die, die for me
Into the sea, into the sea
Would you die for me, baby?
Would you die, die for me
Into the sea, into the sea
Would you die for me, baby?
Would you die, die for me
Into the sea, into the sea
Would you die for me, baby?

[Bridge]
With you love is my religion
And sickness is my drug
Carefully craft incisions
Until you fit like love
With you love is my religion
And sickness is my drug (drug)
Carefully craft incisions
Until you fit like love (like love)
With you love is my religion (baby)
And sickness is my drug (drug)
Carefully craft incisions (baby)
Until you fit like love (like love)
With you love is my religion (baby)
And sickness is my drug (drug)
Carefully craft incisions (baby)
Until you fit like love

She went right into the next, and final, song for the evening.

Plastic Heart

{OA: Nostalghia}

You look for me Inside the dark
I am the ocean
You are the shark
You hunt me like
Your last goodbye
Oh fallen angel
Of the night

Just take my heart
Just rip it out
This holy skin
It's falling out
I lay my body
On the bed
One day, someday
You know I will see you again

I put my hand against your plastic heart
No, suicide is not the plan
Stand far
Even the stars are trapped inside
Oh my There's nothing left to hide
There's nothing left to die
There's nothing left to die

I put my hand against your plastic heart
No, suicide is not the plan Stand far
Even the stars are trapped inside
Oh my There's nothing left to hide
There's nothing left to die
There's nothing left to die

Plastic heart
No, suicide is not the plan
Stand far
Even the stars are trapped inside
Oh my
There's nothing left to hide
There's nothing left to die There's nothing left to die

Raising her hands in the air, then giving a bow from the waist, Billi placed the mic in its stand and descended to the dance floor level. Drinks were offered by a handful of men but, Billi being Billi, she went and got her own drink to show them she was her own person and that libations would not ensnare her. Power, wealth, position; those are what mattered to an Orion female. And, having shagged the XO of Indy, she was already on her way to having someone in her corner. That wasn't the only reason, he was one hell of a guy full of laughter and quite the romantic in his own way. That, and he was filthy rich from businesses he owned while serving in Starfleet. Having done her part for morale Billi left the nightclub and headed off across the beaches, peeling off clothes when she found a tranquil lagoon and enjoyed the starlit swim.
