Love Music? Learn an Instrument Today at VII Notes!
Hello everyone! My name is Elliot Craig, and I just wanted to advertise that I'm offering music lessons! Music is a wonderful form of expression that anyone can get into! It makes a great hobby, or it can be used to help channel magic for witches out there. And for you romantic types, it's a great way to impress a special someone in your life~

Currently I offer lessons with piano, violin, guitar, recorders (great for kids!), harmonicas and singing! Group or solo lessons are available, with discounts offered with group lessons. Special accommodations can be made for monsters! And as always, the first lesson is free!

Please contact me today if you're interested! Thank you!

[OOC: A sign up post with more information can be found here! Lessons will be handwaved for the most part]

I don't know if Fae need any special accommodations, but I'm definitely interested. Are instruments available at the lessons, or is it a bring-your-own sort of deal?

[fiddlestick]

I don't think Fae do, unless there's any changes to your hands or voice, depending on which instrument you want.

Instruments are available at the lesson! Though you're welcomed to bring your own if you prefer.

[Today is the day that Elliot Craig may or may not regret letting anyone sign up for music lessons. Sora's singing skills are ... questionable at best. But boy does he have a Dinsey's heart for music.]

elliot! i'd like to sign up! i've been in a few musicals before, you know! i can sing some stuff!

[When Sora responds, Elliot has no clue what cruel fate awaits him. ]

Sora!

Sure! I'd be happy to have you! Would you still like to do singing?

[selfishwish]

Aw, wow! I didn't know you did music lessons. U(⁎˃ᆺ˂)U

[Not...that there's a particular reason why he would have, but. Still cool!]

Were you a teacher back home?

text;

[fiddlestick]

Haha, not sure how you would know that. It's been awhile since I've advertised to mirrorbound.

I was! Though it was more a side job while I traveled. My sister's the full time music teacher.

he mostly traveled and composed his albums. he's pretty famous back home. you should have him teach you!

[ Well.. Asahi sure stares at the message for a long time, wondering if this is an awkward time to ask 'so hey, are you feeling better now'.. It probably is awkward, right. But she'll feel bad if she doesn't do it either. So damned if she does or doesn't, huh.

Maybe she can just try to do it relatively casually?!

Except Asahi is as casual as a bull in a china shop. ]

it's good to see you doing well!!!

[fiddlestick]

[Bless you Asahi. He pauses. He never interacted with her over text, so it takes a moment for him to figure out who this is and why they're saying that.

Then it clicks. Oh. It's the stranger he cried on.

That's awkward.]

Oh ... You were that girl from that day, aren't you?

Thanks. I'm feeling much better now. Sorry for such a bad first impression.

Elliot Craig. ( that's... his way of saying hi, basically. he'd bow and everything, if you were face to face. )

Would you perhaps consider accepting lessons for an instrument that you do not know as payment?

[fiddlestick]

That's me.

That depends, what's the instrument? I know more instruments than what I'm teaching.

[trusttheshovel]

Ooh, I've never picked up an instrument before, but I'm interested in learning the guitar!

I don't know if vampires need special accommodation, but do you do evening classes?

[She's starting to sleep during day lately...]

[fiddlestick]

Great choice! Guitar's a good instrument to learn first!

Haha, yeah we can do evening classes for you. I'm more of a night owl anyway, so I don't mind.

Six options, but VII Notes... This is false advertisement.

[ Hello, Elliot. Have a vaguely curious Stiles poring over the information indecisively. What better way to express interest than to be a brat. ]

[fiddlestick]

Haha, actually it's named after the seven notes in the chromatic scale.

Also my friends, the class we were in together was called Class VII.

Oh hey! That's not boring at all!

[fiddlestick]

[Oh aidios it's this guy again]

Thanks, I think? Glad you don't find music boring.

what the hell happened up there

[ you know, up there ]

Please don't make me retell it.

[Oh there's a name she recognizes and oh...oh hmm...]

I think I've learnt something about these watches today.

[fiddlestick]

What about them?

[reluctantradiance]

[ For someone who's been so involved in and practically surrounded by music in the past, Yuma's only ever been a listener. Still, learning to play music himself isn't such a bad idea the more he thinks about it. (He has to have some talent, given how people seem drawn to him whenever he starts humming a tune, right?) ]

i haven't played an instrument myself before, but i'd like to give it a try

i don't know what i would pick, though. is it still possible to play music if you have claws?

[ He may not have much knowledge, but he's still pretty sure he wouldn't have an easy time playing a harp the way he is now. ]

Re: text; un: yuma

[fiddlestick]

Great! It's always a good time to start.

And of course it is. I'd recommend guitar if you have claws. If anything, they'd be a big help because you wouldn't have to worry about guitar picks.

Some singing lessons might be good. I would like to try using songs to channel magic again.

[fiddlestick]

Again? So you've used music magic before?
