Arlo Seys ignored the two of them and softly said to the person next to him, "Ariel, switch to the upbeat version of 'Era.' It'll help liven up the mood. Since we haven't touched this stuff in ages, I can't guarantee the accompaniment will be spot on. A faster rhythm will make it harder for people to notice slight errors."
Ariel Morris nodded, hesitated for a moment, and said in a somewhat deep voice, "Arlo, I'm nervous."
Arlo Seys smiled gently, "It's okay, the three of us will share the embarrassment with you."
