A/N: YAY!
Trying too hard to be positive about this…

Allen was wary about this. Had it gone well last time? No. Was there much hope this time? Maybe. He got the song "Chapter One" by Lifehouse.
All the stars are out tonight
It feels as though I might
Make some sense of this mind
Maybe this'll turn out right
Who's to say where the wind will blow?
Time will tell us if we're
Out of answers when it stops
Climb back down to the beginning,
Take it from the top
Who's to say where the wind will blow?
What happens when all your dreams are lying on the ground?
Do you pick up the pieces all around?
And if the world should fall apart
Hold onto what you know
Take your pieces, turn around and go
All the leaves are turning and
The sky has faced decline
Funny how our lives are shaped
By the seasons of today
Who's to say where the wind will blow?
What happens when everything is lying on the ground?
Do you pick up the pieces all around?
And if the world should fall apart
Hold onto what you know
Take your chances, turn around and go
Carry on inside
Make the best of today
All I see is struggle
On the way
Maybe when the sun
Crashes, fades away
Maybe I can make it
Through today
What happens when all your dreams are lying on the ground?
Do pick up the pieces all around?
And if the world should fall apart
Hold onto what you know
Take your chances, turn around and go
Take your chances, turn around and go
There was lots of clapping. Duly noted, it was a sadish song with a happy tune, but it was good, like "Everyman". And so the clapping commenced. Along with a "Yay, Allen~!" from Road's general direction.
"Great job to Allen!" Komui gave him a thumbs-up, which Allen mirrored with a polite smile. "The last person before we start repeats is Tyki-Pon!!!"
There was tons of laughter. Like last time.
"That never gets old!" Lenalee gasped.
"Ah ha ha! Why didn't you tell us about THIS one?!" Laughed the twins. Tyki shot them a glare, his face turning red.
I swear, one of these days I'm going to EAT them.

I think it fits. In a weird, sad kind of angsty way. I also like that song. Please review!
