Koda smiles as she spins around in her chair, it's just what you have to do whenever you sit in a spinny chair. He looks at the controls, "Yeah, I'm starting to figure them out but I'm still pretty lost with them all. Thank god we have professionals for that!" He looks at her and smiles, "Yeah, you kinda feel like you're the only people in the world when you're inside this room. It's actually a really liberating feeling." he looks at her, "Sometimes distractions are good though." he smiles a little, he was already warming to Sara and enjoying her company. "So, come on. Tell me a little about yourself, I know you're a musician, but who is Sara?" he laughs a little as he realizes that he sounded eerily similar to a psychologist.

Sara laughs and nods. "Thank god for them," she agrees about the professionals. None of the buttons made any sense to her, but when she saw people working the control booths, they always seemed so relaxed and in control. Made her feel comfortable with recording with them. She shrugs when Koda asks him who she is. "Um... I'm just... Sara," she says back with a laugh. "I'm from Wisconsin. I've been singing and dancing for a while. I like pina coladas and getting caught in the rain." She laughs at her own dumb joke and then shrugs. "What about you, Koda? Who are you?"

Koda smiled as she seemed a little hesitant to talk about herself, he chuckled a little, "That's funny because I'm not really into yoga and some people would say that I do indeed have half a brain." he shook his head, "Just FYI though, that song has so many f*cking levels, it's unreal!" he slams his hand down on the surface of the mixing board as if to make an emphatic point. He looks at her and smiles, "I like you, kid."

"Who am I?" He looks at her and winks "... I haven't decided yet!" he spins around in his chair, hoping his attempt at avoiding the question works in so much that she'd be fascinated enough to stick around "So, how would you feel about heading down there?" he points to the recording area below, "Maybe test this thing out?"

Sara nods just as enthusiastically when Koda talks about all the levels in the song. "I know, man! It's crazy! What insanely cheesy, yet brilliant song writing!" She laughs, clapping her hands together. She liked hanging out with him as well. She looks out towards the recording studio when he offers to have her try it out. "Are you sure? I'd hate to use up some of your recording time just for me to hang around in your booth." She smiles at Koda.

Koda smiles, "Yeah, but if you enjoy it and decide to record here, then I'll get a huge bonus for convincing you to record here." he smirks, "Well if you don't wanna ..." he says, in some last-ditch attempt to get her to go for it. He sits back in his chair and places his feet up on the mixing booth, "Your move, kid!" he smirks.

Sara grins and stands up from her spinny chair. "I'll do it, I'll do it... If you really really want me to..." she says with a wink as she walks into the recording studio. "What do you want me to sing?" She asks into the microphone, taking off the small jacket that she was wearing, revealing her tanktop she was wearing underneath.

Koda laughs, "That's more like it!" he says as he stands from his chair too, raising a clenched fist in the air as a mock act of defiance and rebelliousness. "Sing one of your own songs!" he says as he pushes his hand down on a button on the control table, "Go for it!" he says with a grin as he stands and watches her.

Sara places the headphones over her ears and positions herself in front of the microphone, getting ready to sing. She hadn't recorded anything since 2012, and part of her was almost nervous to sing in front of Koda. She started to sing an a capella version of Obsession, the song that she released in August of 2012. The original version was much faster, with a very dance-pop feel to it, but she slowed the song down a lot in her on-the-fly a capella version, making it sound almost like a ballad. "I am your leader / You'll love, and you'll keep her / Say when we're together / You'll love me forever / You're my possession / You're my obsession / Don't tell me never /Please don't tell me never!" She sings the chorus, about to reach her favorite part of the song. "Or / This obsession will go over the top / I'll slit your fucking throat open / Slit your fucking th--" She stops singing, bursting out laughing, the angry lyrics coupled with how slow and serene her voice sounded without music behind it becoming too much for her. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. That was just too funny sounding," she tells Koda through her laughs.

Koda remains stood in the mixing booth, swaying from side to side. He smiles as he listens to her sing, what appeared to be a beautiful and sugary romantic pop ballad but as she reaches the next part of the song he stood back, shocked but delighted at what he heard. He laughs as she stops singing, he presses down on the button which allows himself to be heard, "That was brilliant, I did not expect to hear you say 'I'll slit your f*cking throat open'." he laughs, "That's my sort of lyric." he laughs as he gestures for her to come back into the mixing booth.

Sara takes off the headphones and grabs her jacket, slinging it over her shoulder as she walks back into the mixing booth, grinning the whole time. She plops back down in the spinny chair and spins I a circle a couple of times before stopping in front of Koda. "Yeah, that was my song..." She says with a laugh and a shrug. "Alright, your turn! Now I get to play mixing booth expert, and you have to sing for me!"

Koda smiles as she makes her way back into the mixing booth, "Holy sh*t, you're good." he says, he looks at the recording booth and shrugs, "Fine, you asked for it!" he says, chuckling slightly as he wanders out of the mixing booth and onto the studio floor, he puts the headphones on and sings one of his songs, “Don’t think I can take one more argument/Peering from the stairwell of my father’s home/Another night watching this torment/Watching it all unfold/And I’m thinking/Maybe love isn’t worth it/The scars seem to run pretty deep for them both/Maybe it’s just better to close off my heart/Live forever alone."

Not sure how much of the song he should perform, he does another couple of verses, "I can’t remain in this home/I’m leaving now to find a place on my own/Tired of treading over broken glass/I’m breaking out of these shackles at last/Because this is a battlefield/How can you even call this a home/This is a battlefield/Destroying everything I’ve ever known." He finishes singing and laughs, "So ... how was my audition?"

Sara leans back in her chair as she listens to Koda. The song he sang was beautiful and heartbreaking, and it was almost weird to hear Koda - who she had just met - open up so much and show a whole other side of himself than he had shown her yet. She claps when he finishes and says, "That was amazing, Koda!" Then she realizes that he can't hear her through the glass, and she frantically looks for the button that will make him hear her. After a couple seconds, she finds it and repeats herself. "Sorry! That was amazing! Is that the kind of music that your band makes?"

He hadn't ever really sung his songs acapella before and so it sounded a little different to him, but he smiled when he saw that Sara seemed to enjoy it. He smiles and nods, "Yeah ... pretty much, just with a little more guitar and drums." he laughs a little and makes his way back into the mixing booth, "Yeah ... it' sounds more manly with guitars and stuff" he says jokingly, he wasn't one hundred percent comfortable with showing so much vulnerability and his joking was a way to pave over that.

"It could sound more manly than that? That sounded as manly as John Wayne eating beef jerky," Sara says back jokingly. Although it probably wasn't the sound that Koda and his band normally had, it was definitely one that she liked. "That was really awesome, though. What's your band called? You kind of sound familiar to me." Sara didn't listen to the radio a lot, and had lately been caught up in bands that she already knew, but Koda's voice did sound familiar and she was sure she had heard it somewhere before.

Koda smiles, well I think we've just found the quote for our album "More manly than John Wayne eating beef jerky" he laughs, "We're called 'Penetralia' ... no sex jokes, I've had enough of em' already." he shakes his head, "We're not exactly well known, but we've released a song already, it was called 'Cupid's Scythe'." he looks at the clock on the wall, "I think we should probably let the guys get back in here ... you wanna hang out? ... I've been here for almost two months and I'm yet to really explore London." he says with a smile.

Sara nods and laughs when Koda asks her not to make a sex joke about their band name. Truthfully, she hadn't thought of the name like that until he said something about it. "That's a cool name, though. Not as cool as Koda, of course. And definitely not as cool as Sara! But still a cool name." She nods when he says the name of the song. She had definitely heard it before, she just didn't know who it was by. "So that's you? Awesome! Yeah, I've definitely heard of you before." She smile when he asks her if she wants to hang out. It felt like it had been a while since a guy asked her if she wanted to hang out. "Yeah, definitely. Is this your first time in London?"

Koda laughs, "Thank you, ahh nothing can beat Sara and Koda, of course not!" he smiles as he grabs his jacket off of the back of the chair, "Oh wow, you're actually heard of us? So you're the one then?" he laughs a little and smiles, leading Sara towards the door, "Yeah, never been in Europe until now, I've led such a sheltered life." he does a pretend frown as they make their way down the hallway. They see the rest of the band sat in the lobby, patiently waiting.

Sara follows him out of the mixing booth and back down the hallway towards the lobby again. She speaks as she puts back on her jacket. "My friend played me for you, actually so... Two fans, at least!" She asks back jokingly, playfully nudges his arm as they walk towards his band. "I've been here before, but never with enough time to actually do anything, so this'll be an adventure for both of us." She gives another little wave to the rest of Penetralia, who had been obviously waiting longer than they thought they would be for Sara and Koda to stop horsing around in the studio. "Nice to meet you guys," she says to them with a smile.

Koda chuckles lightly, "Holy sh*t, we have two fans?" he shouts at the rest of the band, in mock excitement "Guys, I think we've gone viral, we have two fans now!" The rest of the band look up at Sara and Koda, they try not to look annoyed at how long they were both in the recording booth as they quickly stand to their feet. Gunner, Beau and Jonah nod their head slightly and almost simultaneously say "Nice to meet you" to Sara.
Beau, looks at Koda and Sara and shakes his head, "You have fun in there?" he lets out an over-exaggerated sigh, "We aren't gonna find her bra in there are we? ... Or mp3 recordings of you both going at it?" he lets out a tiny little smirk. Koda shakes his head and gently pushes Beau out of the way, "Seriously dude!" he says, shaking his head. "Just get back in there."

The band make their way back down the hallway while Koda and Sara step outside of the building, instantly hit with the cold winds and rather horrid weather conditions outside. He looks at Sara and smiles, "Yeah, sorry about them!" he laughs slightly.

Sara gives the rest of the band a small, apologetic smile when she sees that she and Koda may have annoyed them a little bit by staying so long in the recording booth. She blushes when Beau implies that her and Koda might have done something suggestive when they were alone in there. Honestly, the thought that they should do something suggestive - much less the thought that somebody would accuse them of so - never crossed her mind the entire time they were in there. Maybe she was just too innocent of a person - or maybe men will always find a way to make anything sexual. Either way, she felt like she needed to give them another apologetic smile for the sex that they definitely didn't have. She gives the receptionist one last wave as well as they walk back into the cold air. "Oh my god," she says softly as she immediately begins to put back on her jacket, the wind feeling like ice against her bare skin. "No, they're fine. I get it. Boy will be boys, right?" She laughs as little as she starts the never-ending battle of trying to keep her hair out of her face.
