[ eddie's so expressive, it makes him genuinely hard to look away from, like she can hear every thought he has about the song based on whatever his face is doing at any given moment. it's always exciting to see someone listen to a song you're showing them for the first time, and julie feels like she can tell exactly which bits really get him into it just from the tilt of his head or the way he raises his eyebrows. almost laughing when he lets out that little impressed murmur once the guitar really kicks in. ]
[ it's the only tape she has, well that and her trial mix, so julie knows every song back to font. could probably tell what part of the song eddie's on just from the tinny drum fill and guitar that filters out through his hair. a couple of times, when she's turning her head to blow out smoke and not paying attention, she mouths silently along to the words, closes her eyes and nods along to the beat. ]
[ when it ends she stops the tape so eddie's not immediately attacked by courtney love's off-key singing following it up, smile small but genuine when he says it's good. though when he asks if it's nirvana, well. it's a totally understandable mistake, but a slightly surprised laugh bubbles out of julie anyway and she shakes her head. ] Stone Temple Pilots. I thought they'd be more your speed.
