track 1
[There's a weird sound coming through the Murmur to anybody who happens to connect, the quiet tinny noise of an electric guitar being played without amplification. There's a soft layer of how it's supposed to sound laid over it, a distorted rhythmic chugging straight from Toki's own brain, but it fades in and out as he works things out.
His voice as he sings is hesitant, stopping every so often to try different phrasing, in both Norwegian and English, so sometimes things rhyme and sometimes they don't, depending on word choice and translation. Sometimes he swears a lot. He can be pretty easily interrupted, so once he notices the connection form, he laughs. He was sort of trying to send it out so whoever it's for would know what he's doing, but he doesn't exactly know if he's doing it right or not.]
Oh! Uh, hi, I'm doing a song. For "Her." Because a guy told me to, so I could get a guitar.
[You know, reasonable stuff to do. He's obviously got the guitar, so he's got that going for him.]
Just gotta... finish it.
[It's more serious than what he usually comes up with for himself, after all.]

no subject
[That's not... completely an answer to the question, and he answers it a little too quickly.]
Don't worry, I'm okay.
no subject
"Stuff"?
no subject
[It's not the first time he's had to forage for food or whatever, and he's doing fine so far!!]
And now I got this.
no subject
Have you ever done this before?
no subject
[He's not entirely sure what particular "this" is in question here.]
There were more people around though...
no subject
But none of us are in a normal world.
Do you have a weapon to protect yourself?
no subject
[It's just as beat up as most things around here, but a big stick's a big stick all the same.]
Couldn't find anything cool like a flamethrower.
no subject
I suppose that's better than nothing.
no subject
[None of his problems have really involved anybody trying to hurt him yet, so hopefully it'll stay that way.]
You don't have to worry about ol' Toki.
no subject
If you say so.
Just . . . be careful, all right? If you need combat training or help. just ask.
no subject
[He's doing well for himself so far, but "combat training" makes him think about being able to kick some guy's head off or something, so maybe when he can settle down enough he'll go for that.]
You be careful too, for if I need that!
no subject
Of course. I'm a trained solder. So I'm a little used to things.
no subject
[Like kicking some guy's head off.]
But I'll do okay!
no subject
[ he just has to have a little faith. ]
no subject
[And he means it!]
