It is the first violin part to Bach's

"Hello, Cyborg," he greets amiably.

Room for one million songs on his MP5 player, and not one violin solo.

He'll be finished in a moment.

He doesn't volunteer this fact. But he is listening. The strange man* plays pretty well.

When the piece does end, his brows furrow for a moment, and he shakes his head once. But then he turns to Trowa with a distinctly friendly expression.

But once Data is finished playing --

"Yes, I do," he replies, glancing over at Spot. "I would say that I am fascinated by most life forms, actually. I find the concept of domesticated animals to be particularly interesting, and enjoy taking care of Spot."
The cat looks up at the mention of his name, mews, and goes back to grooming.
