It was terribly difficult to avoid the urge to poke fun at the situation, but Kristoph somehow managed. For the most part, anyway.
"More creative than initials, hm?" He slipped an arm across his chest in contemplation. Pulling originality while keeping one's cover was not readily done through writing. An author's pseudonym, for instance, could easily be decrypted if their style matched any known works. Lyrics were convenient because the patient body had no access to Klavier's music (as Kristoph originally predicted). The men from 'their' Los Angeles were prior to the Gavinner's rise to fame. Unless his brother degraded to complete idiocy and leaked his lyrics, they would be relatively safe from a reveal.
That, unfortunately, returned them to the original issue: unwanted attention. The songs were flamboyant at best, hardly qualified to sneak past the eyes of prying individuals. Pity they weren't among common Americans. Using German might have proved more effective.
He sighed, albeit pleasantly. "You are likely correct. We've no choice but to resort to false names." What kind, however, was the night's question. "Preferably pedestrian. Fancy would simply throw us back into our dilemma."
