In truth James had doubts about how good of friend he was, even though he did pretty much everything he could to make his friends happy.

"Don't worry, I'm not going anywhere," he gave her hand a very gentle squeeze. "We have candy and drinks I'd say were stocked up for a while," he chuckled a bit.

"Actually...I wanted to play for you if that's ok," he removed the case from his back, it was a guitar case. "Not sure how good I've gotten, but, I'll play if you want," he'd started taking lessons right after getting to the island and picked it up fast.

"Maybe I should bring it some headphones for ya - have you listen some decent music 'round here. All they got is, like, elevator music or somethin'." Nix chuckled as he stepped gently around the nurse, to allow her to inject Anna with the morphine which would dull her piano. That Gods for morphine, he thought. Otherwise she'd be in even more agony than she already is.
Either way, he sat back down in one of the chairs, leaning back
"What, like we're gonna leave YOU here? Get outta here - I'm staying -" and he shifted in his seat, pointing to the floor below him "riiiight the fuck here. Don't you worry your head about it. Like I said... We got you."
Seeing the guitar James had brought out, his hands hovered over the armrest of his seat (hard as it was). "Need some light drum accompaniment?" Nix asked James, settling in, while he practiced quiet rhythms on the armrest.

Anna gave a small smile, comforted by the knowledge that her friends were going to stick around for a while longer. She mentally praised herself for making such good friends. Anna glanced at James's guitar and immediately wished she could play, but she doubted that she could get her arms comfortably around the instrument without hurting herself, so she resisted the urge, though the desire was clearly there in her dark brown eyes.

"Sure," she replied, trying to get herself to relax back into the bed a little. The morphine was starting to kick in, she could tell from the way the pain was starting to fade, as though a thick honey was being pumped into her veins and was spreading slowly through her bloodstream. That's how she pictured it, anyways.

As her friends started to surround her with music, Anna could feel the world getting a little blurry. She rolled her head on the pillow to look over at Nix. He had two heads. "Nix, I didn't know you could do that," she told him, lifting her hand to point at his extra head. "Tha~at's cooooool. I want two heads."

He chuckled a bit and nodded in answer to Nix's question. It was the first time he'd ever played for someone.

Smiling shyly he started to play, it was a calm, beautiful tune, one he'd played a lot. James tended to have low self esteem, he rarely acknowledged his own skills and talents, because though he wouldn't admit it, he was really good with the guitar.

The song finished, he cleared his throat a bit, "hope it wasn't too bad." He chuckled at Anna, he could tell the morphine was taking affect.

The pyro nodded at James, and, hands at the ready, lightly tapped the armrest to the beat, getting more complex to suit his... actually really good... guitar playing. James seemed like kind of a humble dude, but like... He had to know he could play guitar real good. Jeez, he thought, all these talented people.... and a pyro who sets stuff on fire too much.
And apparently, according to Anna (or Morphine Anna, if his hunch was right and it'd kicked in), a pyro who had two heads. He was really itching to tell a joke - but he knew it wasn't exactly called for, not right now, not right here. So, he made an alternative. Which, much to his chagrin, didn't seem nearly as suave out loud as it did in his head.
"Two heads are better than one, all the more brainpower to think with. And twice the good-look." And he struck a pose... For five seconds, before realizing that he might just look like the most dumb person in the world. Ahem.
"Uhh. James. Nice guitar skills, man," Nix told the guy next to him, sitting back down and trying his best to remain inconspicuous. "Real good. Did the drumming... Uh, did it help?"
Untalented loser, Nix's brain chorused at himself, and he pushed that voice back down before speaking again, chuckling.
"Think Anna's goin' into Morphine Mode. Need anything before ya slip, Anna?"
