"I do" she smiled and headed down the stairs right in to a door, when she opened it, there was the foyer "it's pretty common for the ballet rats to run up here in fear of nothing."

"That's...pretty convenient," he chuckled, glancing hastily from the foyer back to the rooftop. "Have you, in particular, used this passageway before?"

She nodded "Like I said, my friend works here."

"So you've run up here in fear of nothing as well?"
He arched a brow.

"Nooooo" she laughed "I have gone up there with my friend to see the Paris skyline before."

"Ah, that's what I thought," he grinned. "Hmm, it's a nice place here."
His eyes grazed over the intricate architecture of the foyer and the various statues adorning either side of the grand staircase.

"I always found it to be a wee bit gaudy" Gabby smiled "but it's the Opera 'ouse."

"Just a little. So, do all your opera houses look like this? Ours is...much different, you understand," he explained.

He journeyed up and down the stairs in large, bounding, unnatural strides.
"Of course, ours is far more superior. You should know that," he teased.

"Even so," he shrugged.
He eyed her critically.
"You know, I think I'd like to see you perform and see if you can compare to the singers back home. And those are some high expectations. Are you up for it?"

"Sure" Gabby grinned and inhaled, the first song that came to her head, which happened to be from an opera she'd just finished. The Magic Flute. She played Pamina. Although they'd just trekked through the opera house, Gabby still had energy and breath to spare. She chocked it up to the fact that when she isn't doing opera, she sings the blues at a lounge. Exhaling she began to sing. ((Don't mind Andrea's crazy opera wonk eyes, I er personally love her.))

((She's great!))
Anakin leaned his weight against the nearest bronze statue and listened, enraptured.

((I found her while looking up aria's for a friend on youtube, I love her so. She's also one of the few I found that sings it in the original German.))
As she finished, the few people standing in the foyer with them began to clap, she blushed and curtsied.
