Hello everyone!

My name's Elliot Craig, and I'm to announced that starting today, I'm offering music lessons through my business, VII Notes! So if you've ever wanted to learn a music instrument, now's the perfect time! Music can be a great tool to help you get through stressful time. And for you witches, it can be a pretty good channeling tool for magic!

The instruments I'm currently offering are:

Piano

Violin

Guitar

Singing

Recorder (great beginner woodwind instrument!)

My going rates are affordable as well! Standards rates are:

	30 Minutes	45 Minutes	60 Minutes
Solo Lesson	2500c	3000c	3500c
Group Lesson*	1500c	2000c	2500c

*No group lessons offered currently for piano

And now's an even better time to try out music, because the first lesson is free! Discounts are also available for those with lower incomes. Music lessons will take place either in the barracks or the Aoide Foundation school of music, depending on the instrument. Thanks to the Aoide Foundation for loaning of instruments!

Finally, for those who're interested in just hearing some music, you can find me performing in the Entertainment district on Weekend Evenings at

[insert popular street corner] provided there's good weather! In the meantime, please check out a recording of one of my original songs, "Beneath the Bright Sky", featuring piano accompaniment by one of the fine students at Aoide Foundation. [He attaches an audio recording done via the communicator] This song and more will be on my new album, which is currently in the works!

Thank you for listening!

[OOC: All actual lessons will be handwaved, as while Elliot is musically gifted, his player played one (1) clarinet badly]

[ Sugoi...!!! ]

i'd love to learn to play the piano! it sounds like you're settling in okay, then, elliot?

(also i'd like to hear you sing sometime? i'm always impressed by anyone who can do more than carry a tune.)

great beginner instrument and you have ten zillion of em

[fiddlestick]

Great choice Izuku! I'm a little biased towards piano, it was my first instrument.

And I think I am, thanks. I'm still getting used to things, but I think I'm over the panic stage. How are you doing?

[Yes. He has a panic stage that's normal enough to call it that]

Eheh, maybe sometime. I'm no opera diva in terms of talent and I'm better at instruments, but I should hopefully be alright.

[fiddlestick]

Haha, that may have been a factor in deciding to hold recorder lessons, I admit.

[clickclickbang]

:P

so if you were to pick an instrument for me what would you pick?

text

[fiddlestick]

You?

Hmm...probably something portable like a guitar. I can't see you sitting around in one place for long.

only if i'm doing photoeditting and even then i had a spinny chair.

but cool! when's the first lesson?

[fiddlestick]

Haha, yep. I'm not surprised.

That depends! I offer lessons during afternoons and evenings during the weekdays. When would fit into your schedule?

[defendure]

how early did you start playing?

also, i'm doing okay. i haven't found a bond or anything yet (has anyone???) but i'm definitely settling in to being here...

although i'm still trying to figure out a way home, of course. no joy on the mirror magic yet, though.

[clickclickbang]

evenings probably, just so i have more job options y'know?

[fiddlestick]

Right, understandable!

How about Tuesday evenings then? Around 6?

[clickclickbang]

sounds good to me! can't wait (^^)ｂ

[usurpers]

How do you put music in an album
?

[ like

he only knows photo albums and that shit is recent ]

[fiddlestick]

I think I was about 3? It's hard to remember exactly when I started.

Haha, that's good to hear. I found a bond, but I got lucky. I'm sure you'll find one!

Hm, yeah. I haven't figured out a way home either yet. I can't help but feel it's going to take longer than all of us hope.

[fiddlestick]

I can't wait either!

We'll be at the Aoide Foundation since I have to borrow their guitars. They're at [INSERT ADDRESS HERE] I'll meet you at the front entrance.

Did you want 30 minutes, 45 or an hour?

[clickclickbang]

45?

[fiddlestick]

Haha, it's a record album.

I'll show one sometime. You record the music, and you can replay the song anytime using a special device called a record player.

[fiddlestick]

Great! I'll mark you down!

How've you been Prompto?

[clickclickbang]

d'you know how hard it is to adjust to having pointier teeth

[fiddlestick]

Oh, did those grow in?

[Now he's extra glad he didn't recommend recorder]

[clickclickbang]

yeah, full moon

which reminds me that i

uh

claws may be a thing like i'll keep them trimmed but

[fiddlestick]

Ouch.

Okay. That probably shouldn't be a problem. It just means you probably won't need a guitar pick once they grow in.

[clickclickbang]

YEAH LIKE idk they may stay pretty short?? but that's a thing

[fiddlestick]

Right, sounds like a thing alright.

I can ask my bonded for tips. He's a dragon, so he doesn't have claws yet, but I know he's got pointy teeth. He might know some ways to deal with them.

[clickclickbang]

oooo you got bonded?
