[ Of course she's going to get thrown off. Her eyes go wide and her brows furrow as she looks at him, but she doesn't let that distract her from singing. She follows the melody of the piece, expression calming down a few measures later once she can tell that Midorima did that intentionally or that he wouldn't do it again. ]
[ He gives a little smirk when she clearly stays on point. He's playing. Not just playing piano, but he likes to do playful things when he plays piano. Music is fun for him, even if it isn't something he seeks to do professionally. When they're done, he stops playing and glances at her, though the smirk is gone. ]
Let's just hope the actual pianist doesn't make any mistakes once we start performing.
[ Because!! That would be terrible!! She gets it, though. The show must go on, et cetera.
She scoots a little closer to reach the proper keys and plays the part Midorima toyed around with earlier, adding her own take on it. A little improvisation certainly doesn't hurt - it adds your own flavour to a piece! ]
Maybe something like this would have been better, though. [ And eventually, she continues, reading the piece while adding some more flair. The style of the song itself changes, and she sings along, following a different, more upbeat rhythm now. ]
[ This is actually pretty fun?? And she's going to let him play the bassline, following what he's set up so she can harmonise with it. The song sounds so much different now, and she sings along again until they get to the end. ]
[ They've got to make sure to keep it in the right key, but as long as they do it should sound fine. It's certainly got a different vibe to the song now, but it's enjoyable to play and listen to her sing anyway. ]
[ It's not the whole piece she has a solo in, but she does have a verse and she sings in the chorus. She may as well practice the whole thing even if she's by herself. (Well, Midorima is there, but he's not singing.)
She flips the book towards the back to show him. It's a pretty lengthy piece, but less complicated than the earlier pieces since the focus is the vocals. ]
[ He nods and takes a gander at the piece, but doesn't take as long before he starts playing for her. He plays it through perfectly this time, not testing her. ]

You kept up.

[ She'd show some annoyance over the fact that he tried to throw her off in the first place, but that comment gets her to get all defensive instead. ]
I've been practising for months.

[ Don't be defensive, Weiss, he just has no idea how to be friendly. ]

How about this?
[ Now it's got depth from both a treble and bass line... ]

Weiss lets out a sigh after all that, relieved and excited at the idea of performing in front of so many people. She's never really acted before... ]
What do you think?
no subject
[ practice erryday weiss, that's the midorima way. ]
no subject
[ She's glad he thinks it's okay, though! And even then, Weiss will continue practising. It's how she do. ]
Can I stay a while longer? I just want to sit down first before leaving.
no subject
[ That's a yes... ]
no subject
[ Not just for letting her stay, but for helping out earlier. She appreciates it!
Though for now, she gets up so she can sit on the couch and relax a little. ]
