[Practice Rooms] The Rhythm Section[Closed: Mau, Beri, Purp]

Today was a good day... or it started out as one. Faliwah was out practicing her own dance moves but shes twice had to turn up the music. There was a jam session somewhere down the hall and she has tried to ignore it for a while but it was messing with her dance moves so she had took it upon herself to fix the issue first hand.

Shutting her music off, and bringing her music player and speaker with her, she had marched down the hall where she heard the noises coming from.

It seemed that, as she arrived the music had come to a halt but not before she had taken note of the two boys before her. Dusty, she recalled from her own class and the other, she recalled was in 3A. She couldnt remember thr name be she had a look of incredulousness on her face as she caught the words that were exchanged between the guys


"You call that music? It sounds like nothing but noise, disturbing noises at that. Other people are using these rooms to practice their own things"

She noted to the pair of them but outside of her snobby words, there wasnt much emotion found upon her face. She was in fact, standing there looking like she was stating nothing but fact.

"Yeeeeah, some kind of speedster. That's the easy version of it at least" continuing playing the tune, and taking after Hokori with adding some twists here and there to it where they made sense "aha! But not all music tells a story. If you look at stream of consciousness style music, there's not a story to be told. That style is really just about how the musician is feeling while they play, there's no narrative there but it's still music"

Youta had a silly grin on his face and he looked over at Hokori "I uh....I guess I don't really know many people in your class, bro. I guess we should fix that? We should do like....." Youta's playing slowed, then stopped. He had a look of eureka on his face, clapping his hands together "bro. We should do a class 3 show! We play some tunes, get everyone together and just hanging out. No competition or anything, just hang time! I don't remember the last time we hung out just as a couple of classes!" his attention returned back to Faliwah "how 'bout you? Sound like a good time? I promise we could play some real music just so it doesn't hurt your ears" snickering a bit and giving her a thumbs up "my whole point before I got distracted was all about how music is subjective, and there's real way to define what is or isn't music except by the listener. Totally lost that train of thought. Whoops!"

The boy's mind was clearly all over the place with his big party idea "and hey, plenty of dancing at stuff like that! You could show off your moves. I dunno what kinda stuff you listen to though, so I can't help with the singing until we fix that. What sorta music are you actually into?" the bouncing pink soul that was Youta returning slightly to the original topic.

Faliwah was a bit taken aback by the 3A students constant jumping between subjects. She wasnt entirely sure when to interject, eventually opting to just wait until he finished the thoughts he had in mind. She had to admit, though that his face lit up when he came up with the idea was adorable. Like she was watching an indecisive child stuck between two fun and interesting options. She was taking into consideration of what the two boys were saying about music and to some extent, she could agree.

"I can consider your views but I cant help but beleive that that particular mindset is incomplete. As a performer, I understand that pleasing everyone is impossible and agree that music can be manipulated to draw out different types of emotions, I dont quite understand the point of expressing or manipulating the emotions of others without cause or purpose"

She had noted, feeling unimpressed with their explanations. She would wave her hand though, as if dismissing something, feeling as if it would he unproductive to continue the debate.

"As far as a class three gathering and talent show goes, I would be "down wit it". Im always up for ways to expose my art"

She stated, seeming agreeble to the idea but the way she had put air quotations in the air and how she had enunciated the phrase "down with it" made it apparent she was not at all familiar with the modern world and current day verbiage.

Then, she had a look of contemplation as she thought about Youtas question towards her. He seemed like a man who appreciates classics in a sense before turning on her music box to covey the type of music she was dancing too



As she played it, she seemed to get into a meditative state as it played through the first time. She was calm, when listening to it, a hint of a smile appearing on her otherwise emotionless face.

"I mostly listen to classical japanese music with Toru Takemitsu being one of my favorite composers. I prefer melodic music, I hate pop and most modern music but... i do like some of the more somber toohoo (touhou) music. I do enjoy Enka, though im more fond of those with a softer sound to it."

She answered honestly, unsure how it was going to be received though she didnt seem to care much. She stated it in such a matter of fact tone, it was almost as if she was stating fact vs opinion

The bright smile on Youta's face at seeing Faliwah getting into the groove was infectious, he was always into seeing people really enjoy themselves. Youta was a firm believer in the power of the arts, but music above all else.

"Yeeeaah! There you go, see! You're totally grooving to it, and you even got the phrase right!"

The boy was very tickled by the warming up by their classmate. If anything, it was just another moment where he found himself just wanting to befriend all of the people around him. If there was someone at the school he couldn't befriend, or at least start to, then he was still unable to find them. Youta finished up the piece on the piano with a flourish (because of course) and turned around on the bench to face the other two.

"So you're into feudal era stuff it sounded like? That's pretty cool. Explains why you like older traditional music. I can totally give you some recommendations on more modern stuff that you might dig. Anyway, the feudal stuff, my dad has been teaching me kenjutsu since I was a kid. I only use a practice sword since I'm a student, but I've used real ones at competitions. Got the whole samurai outfit and everything for it, my boy over here has seen it a couple of times at a competition or two"

He moved into talk mode quickly, trying to speak on something she was interested in to make her feel more welcome.

"Heh, who knows. Maybe someone way back in my fam was a guard for yours"
