It's late, but I think I would like to pay the piano a visit. It's been a long time since I was graced with its presence. My mind is in need of humbling.

I didn't know you could play the piano. You don't have one in your apartment, do you?

[crusaded.livejournal.com]

I'm afraid not. Unfortunately the only piano is in one of the recreational rooms at the school.

[scienceexplains.livejournal.com]

Well, I'm sure it's better than nothing.

[crusaded.livejournal.com]

It makes it far more precious than I would have imagined.

[scienceexplains.livejournal.com]

I'd love to hear you play sometime. I haven't heard live music in ages.

[crusaded.livejournal.com]

It would be a pleasure.

[hostbu]

What a good idea.

[crusaded.livejournal.com]

It sounds like you'd like to join me.

[hostbu]

Of course! What will you play?

[crusaded.livejournal.com]

Star Of The Sea, unless you'd like to do a duet.

[hostbu]

How perfectly sweet! I would play some Liszt, but I would love to join you.

[crusaded.livejournal.com]

Perhaps you could play for me? Of course, if you don't mind.

[hostbu]

Of course! I don't disappoint.

Wow, that's really deep, Mr Kiske.

The sound of music reminds me of my place here. That does sound poetic, doesn't it?

[ex_minoru481]

It really is, although "the Sound of Music" makes me think of the very lame musical.

[crusaded.livejournal.com]

Lame musical? I'm not familiar with anything by that name ...

My parents made me take piano lessons back in junior high for a while. The damn thing made me feel anything but humble though.

[crusaded.livejournal.com]

Different experiences and tastes, I suppose. We all have our comforts.

[densleonis.livejournal.com]

Sorry, I didn't mean it like that. I like listening to people who have more patience than me.

[crusaded.livejournal.com]

There's no need to apologize, I took no offense. Could I, however, bother you for your name?

[densleonis.livejournal.com]

Oh, Hero.

[crusaded.livejournal.com]

It's a pleasure to meet you, Miss Hero. My name's Ky Kiske.

You said you've played the piano since you were young? It seems that parents like to expose their children to that type of culture, whether or not their children approve of it. My parents were the same way. The appreciation came later.

[densleonis.livejournal.com]

I gave it up as soon as I left home and still haven't really looked back. It just wasn't my thing. The parents would take me to symphonies and it was beautiful, but I'd always fall asleep.

Nice to meet you too, Ky.

I suppose it can be rather dull! There are also some who have a natural talent for music. It's those people who truly make the music engaging. There are many of us with different talents; I can see how it would be difficult for someone who's calling lies elsewhere.

What do you find humbling, Miss Hero?

[densleonis.livejournal.com]

That's a good question.

[crusaded.livejournal.com]

You're not aware?

[densleonis.livejournal.com]

I guess it just feels kinda cheesy. Most of the shit I find humbling isn't anything to be proud of but there's also trying to be a good person. I used to be an EMT but I don't think I really got any of the humility until after I stopped.

Being in any sort of medical profession is admirable; as is being a good person. It's really all someone can do.
