Tch, so much for first period. Who needs something lame like music class, anyway? I'll stick to useful things like science, thanks. And if that pansy-ass music teacher thinks he's gonna punish me for skipping, he's got another thing coming

PANSY?!

Listen up, you...delinquent!! Music has a lot to offer, too!!! If you'd bother to listen every once in a while you might understand that! What's so great about science, anyway-!? Is this some personal grudge?? GRAH! You drive me crazy! ...It's your grades either way!

...And you... Y-You better believe you'll be punished for skipping!

Man, you're just pissed off because I broke that weird-ass guitar of yours, aren't you? You can always buy new strings, teach~

What're gonna do? Let me near the drums and stuff? Yeah, that'll go over well.

...

It's called a sitar. Again, you would know that if you tried to listen every once in a while in my classes!!!

It's not about the sitar, anyway. ...Alright, so maybe it is, just a little bit; I got that on vacay a while back-- It's that attitude of yours!!

Can't you just try to enjoy yourself?! Even once? Then we both win!

Sitar, guitar, shitar, whatever. You pluck strings and that's all I need to know.

Dude, it's a bunch of scribbles on pages to me. If there was something interesting about music at all, I'd probably enjoy it. Hell, aren't you glad I skip as often as I do?

[sitard]

Watch your words, please... Right. All you need to know.

I'll admit, things do run a lot smoother when you don't attend, but that doesn't mean I'm glad you're skipping!! There's more to music than just "scribbles on pages", you know. Music is as common and important as science or math is!

So what can I do to possibly get students like you interested?

[gravity_walk]

Common and important as science and math? I dunno 'bout that. Maybe older than science and math, but it just isn't practical stuff you're learning.

So you wanna make it interesting? Make it cool. All this classic and operatic junk are putting me to sleep, dude. I go to class for mind stimulation, not a nap. I stay at home to nap.

....Alright, I'll work on that. Arietta's offered up a pretty good idea! But if that doesn't work-- No, wait, even if it does work, I guess I could bump this semester's studies up to something a little more...'modern'.

...Hey, I know! How about a live concert?? Tickets, tickets...money. Er. Maybe if the students can pay...
