[Fiftieth Cord]: [Locked to Vocaloid+, Hyperion Residents/Staff, DATS] [Backdate: Dec 27th]

[sakedrinking]

Ah... um...

I-if anyone's noticed the bruises on Lance and Greg nii-chan...

I kind of did that...

I-it's a bit of a long story... longer than I want to tell. But everyone's okay now. I figured since they probably weren't talking about it we shouldn't leave everyone wondering if they were attacked or something like that...

S-sorry...

[sigh] I don't expect to solve things with violence, Haku. Fighting is just the best way I know of to exorcise my frustration so I can figure out how to solve things reasonably, and it works for me. But there aren't many people I know here in the digital world who'd be up for a spar, so it hasn't happened all that often. That may be why it's been so difficult to keep a handle on my emotions lately.

If what you're doing isn't working, then try something else.

Maybe you should find another outlet.

Re: [locked]

[tamerofdragons.livejournal.com]

The only reason it's not working is because I haven't found someone to spar against. And it's really my own fault for that. There are a lot of fighters here in the digital world ... and there are a few I should be able to trust enough for that, at least.

Re: [locked]

[drunkkareoke.livejournal.com]

You wouldn't be willing to try something else?

Re: [locked]

[tamerofdragons.livejournal.com]

What else is there?

Well, there's Master's wood-carving--

Patient, fine-detail work as a cure for frustration? Did you hit your head, Draca?

[huff]

[If you didn't see this coming, Lance, there's something wrong with you.]

... music?

Re: [locked]

[tamerofdragons.livejournal.com]

[very loud, almost violent purr] That's a wonderful idea!

... Music ...?

Of course! Master knows some music already!

I know how to play a funeral rite and battle cues!

So?

Re: [locked]

[drunkkareoke.livejournal.com]

... I... could teach you more?

Re: [locked]

[tamerofdragons.livejournal.com]

I don't--

[long pause]

... I suppose ...

['nuther, shorter pause]

... Okay?

Re: [locked]

[drunkkareoke.livejournal.com]

R-really?!

Re: [locked]

[tamerofdragons.livejournal.com]

Well ... [sigh] Greg said that I should take the opportunity to ... 'be creative'. He was talking about carving, but that's better for relieving boredom than frustration. I think mostly he just meant for me to do something that wasn't work-related, though, so ...

[purr] We think it's a good idea!

Re: [locked]

[drunkkareoke.livejournal.com]

I think it's a wonderful idea! I'd be glad to teach you!

Re: [locked]

[tamerofdragons.livejournal.com]

[fond grumble] Neither of you would have given me a choice even if I'd said 'no', would you?

Not at all, Master~!

Heh.

You underestimate the power of Vocaloid women, Lance.

So what do you want to learn!

Re: [locked]

[tamerofdragons.livejournal.com]

[dryly] It's the combination of vocaloid women and my own partner that worries me.

Well ... the chosen instruments for the Clan are the ocarina or the flute--and others of that kind. They're what I'm most familiar with, especially the former two.

Re: [locked]

[drunkkareoke.livejournal.com]

[laughs] You really do need to lighten up...

Lessie... [brb, searching database] Okay! I have lessons for flute and ocarina. ... though the ocarina just seems to be all songs from video games. That's weird...

A-ah, it's up to you!

Re: [locked]

[tamerofdragons.livejournal.com]

Why does everyone keep telling me that?

Because it's true?

It was a rhetorical question.

Of course, Master.

Well, I already have a flute ... although I prefer the ocarina, personally ...

Re: [locked]

[drunkkareoke.livejournal.com]

Considering nii-chan bought me a Fender Statocaster guitar... I don't think it'd be that difficult to find an ocarina.

Re: [locked]

[tamerofdragons.livejournal.com]

Probably not, no. If I knew where to start looking, anyway.

Re: [locked]

[drunkkareoke.livejournal.com]

There's a music store in the mall.

Re: [locked]

[tamerofdragons.livejournal.com]

... Right.

Re: [locked]

[drunkkareoke.livejournal.com]

... [laughs]

Re: [locked]

[tamerofdragons.livejournal.com]

What?

Re: [locked]

[drunkkareoke.livejournal.com]

N-nothing... really. [giggle]

Re: [locked]

[tamerofdragons.livejournal.com]

[snort] Liar.
