I have discovered something... very odd during my recent foray into Deck 12. It appears to be a small instrument made of durable, polished wood... with strings on the front. It curves in oddly at the center, and there are dark black markings in the middle of it too. It has a long neck and four strange pegs near its tip. I also found a strange bow ( Read more... )

sad prawn is sad, self-distraction through discovery, we just want to go home

You've already been told it's a violin, though I'm sorry to say I don't know how to play it. I prefer keyboards and pianos, myself.

I have not witnessed either of these! You will have to show me sometime.

I can't say I'm able to play either with any skill, but I'm sure I can find some music CDs around here you can listen to.

Oh? I have jut recently been introduced to "CDs". I will have to listen to them.

Be careful what sort you pick up. Some music can be...potentially offensive. It's best to discover what you like through trial and error.

Oh? What is the point of making something like music offensive? I thought it was supposed to be enjoyable.

[Voice] tic_tech_turtle February 27 2010, 04:50:57 UTC

It's enjoyable in some cases, and to different people. Likes and dislikes vary person to person. Some music has...off-color language and/or derogatory statements. Some of it is full of sexual innuendo. Other types are too slow or too fast or too loud.

It's a matter of taste, really.

...Oh, yes. Those Nigerians listened to some strange sounds, now that I am thinking of it... maybe this is "rap" that another passenger mentioned to me.

[Voice] tic_tech_turtle February 27 2010, 05:10:59 UTC

Some rap isn't so bad, though the vast majority of it is remarkably tasteless. Though that's really only my own opinion.

Nigerians?

Yes... humans that were quite common in the slum. They liked extorting my people for money and weapons, the latter of which was pointless. Our guns are built to react only to our DNA, but it didn't stop the humans from brutalizing us to obtain them.

[there's no reply to that for a moment]

[really, Don's becoming more and more convinced that staying hidden had been in his family's best interest]

I suppose it must be a small comfort to know that they couldn't be used against you, then.

[because really, Don can't stand it when someone gets ahold of his bo and turns on him with it, so that those humans couldn't use Chris's weapons honestly would be a comfort to him.]

Yes, I admit that I did feel decidedly smug at their frustrations. I just wished they had left us be... instead I had to work secretly for twenty years. Before I was brought here.
