#SixSunday: Virgo (WIP)-Dance Club Scene #7

Thank you to everyone who checked Kelly Seguin's six sentences last Sunday. She had some blog template problems that prevented people from commenting. Hopefully *crosses fingers* they've been ironed out, so please stop by today and say hi.

Last week, we reached 11:14 pm. Adam said hello to "Lincoln," which is the capital city of Wyoming in my alternate universe. Delilah's just started her remix, and Sam, expecting her to perform a remix she's never before done in public, has called on God for a blessing.


Tori Amos warbled, "Made my own…pre-tty…hate…ma-chi-e-e—”

Sam wanted to be relieved as Delilah scratched out a beat with Tori's last syllable, but he wasn't. Fallout from a remix was one thing, but Delilah changing her mind was a whole new concern. Still, he smiled because her “Salt Creek” remix of NIN’s Sin was a creepy cool shower of liquid lust, and the crowd writhed like mating snakes as they bathed in it.

Adam watched her, slack-jawed for more than a minute, until something she did appeared to knock the wind out of him. Chuckling, he pulled up his records, removed the slip mats from his turntables and fanned her like she was queen of Egypt.

    Awesome description! I loved the shower of liquid lust line, but the whole thing works so well. You've got me fascinated about remixes and the talent behind it...

    I like the picture you're painting of the club and how DJs make their music.

    Ooh, I love 'creepy cool shower of liquid lust'. NIN is great for writing certain violent, sexual scenes; quite familiar with them....

    Love the visuals! And as a NIN fan, I know all of those lyrics. I agree with Monica above on the band choice as well. ;) Very well done!
