[For those that would rather respond...]

I greet you from the other side
Of sorrow and despair
With a love so vast and shattered
It will reach you everywhere

[Open for your starters, too, if you have an idea~]

[Hi WELCOME TO HIS LIFE. Or at least his entire criminal career. All about the communication via lyrics.]

I've got the world on a string
Sitting on a rainbow
Got the string around my finger...

[Communication via lyrics, you say? ...Well, truth be told, he's not actually communicating much here. Except possibly "your taste in music is impeccable as always, William" -- what can he say? He likes this song!

So he's just dropping in to participate; hopefully Meister doesn't mind.]

What a world, what a life - I'm in love

I've got a song that I sing
I can make the rain go
Any time I move my finger...

[Everyone participates, it's part of Meister's natural charm. He offers a grinning bow to Ragdoll.]

Lucky me!

[Of course, there is that, too. Ragdoll waves a hand at him, holding off on his usual greeting.]

Can't you see?
I'm in love

[OOC: m/m for anything smutty.]

hold it, I'm about to drop off
let me tell you my last thought
drift into a deep fog
lost where I forgot to hold it
I can feel you most when I'm alone

{ let's tag the shit out of this. open to any shipping but if doing gen is more your style, go right on ahead. }

There was a time
I used to look into my father's eyes.
In a happy home I was a king, I had a gold throne.
Those days are gone, Now the memory's on the wall.
I hear the songs From the places where I was born.

I wished on the seven sisters
Bring to me wisdom of age
All that's locked within the book of secrets
I longed for the knowledge of a sage…

(ooc: I have no idea if the point is replying with other lyrics or what. So. Improvising here with a song of a similar theme?)

I want my innocence back
And if you can't pacify me
I will break your bones
You think I'm bluffing just try me
I will never forget
The words you used to ensnare me
Till my dying day
You'll suffer for this I swear
