Looking good, Marlow!
[:]) *picks up the noisemaker*
@? howtomakeitwork?
( | W | ) 'Uhh. just works?' ( | X | )
][:] annnd...
-CLUNK!- 'click!'
=[|8|BB] wHHHOOOo! =[|8|33] TestinG. *Marlow carefully lifts up into the air, as his 3 new arms in addition to his 2 'floating gloves' and Genral arm move about some in tests*
=[|X|33] =[|:|33] MucH BetteR.
7BD ! "Yeee!" 7B3 *grabbing hold of the connector plate where he and Jofie are connected, Nyx twists himself about till he pops off, rolling forward in an attempt to be awesome, instead falling to the ground and almost bashing his face* 7BO "NuUUUU-"
=8O ~!~ CAREFUL Nyx! *luckily, quick reflexes and a motherly protection saves Nyx's face as Onponn leans and reaches to catch him by his shoulders* =8(
7BO ... 7Bo "whewww..." 7B3 "thankmew mommy."
*in empathetic response to the events, Nyx's lower half has gotten antsy, walking in small circles*
0~0 Oh my.
|/@~] |/=@] "that could have been worse..."
[!~T] oh... *goes over by Nyx's lower half, petting it*
*Nyx's lower half calms down, going back to sitting*
[:]o [:])
@) it'sokay. *back to puzzling over the noisemaker*
*any startle response she might have had is dampened by the bandage...by the time she registers the danger, it's gone* *she just nods*
=:/ you need to be careful nyx. =:?
][:] yea. your parkour might get you wreaked one day. ][:]
7B? "sorry..." 7B3 *safely on the ground, Nyx makes it the rest of the way to his lower half, connecting back up and doing a little circle scamper of joy* 7BD "yee!"
=[|:|3?] NyX IS GooD. JusT JofiE ThaT NeedS ThinG NoW. =[|:|33]
( | w | ) 'Yea. another computer for usings.'
0u0 i bet we can figure it out together. ^u^ *goes to investigate the bizarre hexadecimal input system on the noise maker as well*
|/=@] "should we get back to colors, and how they relate to eachother?"
[!uT] *had stopped petting long enough for Nyx to join back on, then resumes, Nyx giving of a content purr deep in his throat*
Looks like there's a new toy to focus on. Maybe we could get back to colors later.
[:]? Mouth isn't big enough to hold it in.
@?
( | x | ) 'Uhhh.' *is puzzled on how a non-doomer can 'Use' things*
0~0 hmm. 0u0 it looks like we just need to input a code with these buttons... 0~0 i'm not sure what any codes would be though... 0~0
|/=@] *nodding,* "I'm sure there would be ways to find out... but that might be tricky."
7B? "duno..." 7B3 prrrrr...
[!uT] maybe an easier noise maker would be better.
=[|:|33] PeoplE CaN MakE SounD EasY. =[|:|oo] *whistles a little, an almost stereo sound being heard with the advantages to being able to control pitch and tone with two mouths*
][:] ][(] HaHa! looks like you've already figured that one out on your own. *joins in, adding his own brief dual whistle* ][(]
=:o ooh, =:) I didn't know you could whistle. i'm going to be figuring the second half for Jofie now. =:? =X? =8) ...
Heh, nice one, Marlow. I can't do that.
@?
[:]? *presses a few buttons at random*

7B? "wut?"
( | x | ) 'oh yea. never tried that one.' ( | w | )
0-0 ... 0~0 maybe we should try and find a way of properly picking a sound. there's better things for sound. 0~0 0u0 ! like the accordion. ^u^ that was a good one...
|/=@] "yes, we don't know what kinds of sounds it might make with an unknown input." *is attempting to hint that they fear Av might take advantage of a device that can make sound that has no pre-known codes. words, codes... they could be sounded*
[!~T] 3NovAvo4... *quietly murmurs a code they saw as a result of the 'negative hopes' the Darkmatter had*
=8? ... *is thinking combinations*
][:] welp, we can't do that one either. ][(]
=[|:|33] CoulD TrY.
][(] hehe. Lets, not try that.
=[|:|??] =[|:|oo] HooO =[|:|33]
][|]
[:]? @? *are very confused by the sound*
Let's put this away for now. And when Onponn's done making Jofie's new part, we can look into getting something nicer. *takes the noisemaker and captchalogues it, for convenience's sake*
[:]/ [:]) Okay.
@? accordion?
^u^ its an incredible instrument. the oldest varieties simply had a set of portable bellows that had the outlet controlled by keys, but it became a little bit more than that. it had its bellows developed further so that it also held strings and a set of reed pipes. there were plenty of variations, but the kind most present in professional play were the esper series accordions. 0u0
][:] oh yea. I think i saw a concert once. pretty lively thing. its not even close to a subtle instrument in any way though. hehe. ][(]
D_D *very, very briefly looks incredibly offended* 0u0
[!~T] its a great instrument it sounds like. I'm sure it would be nice to hear one. [!uT]
=8? ... =8) got it; =X) *the alchemeter crafts, a simplified computer rig being made* =:)
( 0 W 0 ) ~!~
|/=@] "looks like we can all figure instruments now." *go to help set the rig up atop Jofie*
7B3 "cool."
=[|:|33] InstrumentS SoundS NicE.
I have some percussion instruments in my sylladex, remember.
[:]) @) *they watch as Jofie gets situated*
0o0 ! 0u0 ah, that would be nice. 0~0 *hasn't really used her own syladex much... its still a tad confusing of a concept to her*
|/=^] "Color, Music... There's a great wealth of creActivities to learn." *they hope the pun goes over well*
][(] hehe.
=[|:|3?] *watches carefully*
( 0 W 0 ) >:Thinks;
( ^ W ^ ) >:Computer is nice other;
=:) hmmm. =:? =8? test;
( | x | ) ? ( | W | ) >:Hehe;
=:D hehe.
7B? *doesn't get it*
[!uT] Thats nice...
Heh. There is.
[:]? @? *they don't get what's funny*
( | W | ) >:what are we learning now?;
=:? hmm. =:) well, there's colors and music. and math, and plants, and physics.
|/=^] "And, Magic!" |/=@] "everyone should have some kind of affinity."
0~0 mmh. *is uncertain of magic, not totally understanding it as a more needed subject* *magic has an unusual definition anyway*
=[|:|33] SO MucH LearnS. =[|:|??] GoinG TO BE HardeR...
][:] hey, lets just keep it simple. pick a good direction you'll think'll end up the best, and stick with it. ][(]
7B3 "like maby a post breakfest pre time between breakfast n' lunch nap."
[!uT] I'm not sure! [!UT]
*she thinks magic is a strange thing to bring up as well...* We could give music a try. Get some toy instruments. *thinks that'd be better for the kids to start with than something more intricate/breakable*
[:]? [:]D Toys!
@) hehe!
|/=^] "Music it is then."
0u0 what toy instruments do we have?
=:) we can easily get whatever we may need.
7B3 "maby drums?"
=[|:|33] BE NicE TO WhistlE BetteR.
][(] I can show you the ropes. ][:] good thing its a big place. plenty of room for everyone to get their own sounds out. *starts leading off with Marlow to learn whistling*
( | W | ) >:Music; >:Hmmm; >:theres mix programs; >:those could be fun;
=:D That sounds like fun to me to! =:)
[!uT] songs... [!~T] musicbox. [T~T] [Tu!] an instrument might be fun.
A little piano or xylophone would be nice, for learning notes.
[:]) @) *they're just excited to get new stuff*
=:) just a moment. =:? ... =:) *a single, non-combined item is easier to find. a keyboard is created atop the alchemeter*
^u^ that works. 0u0 *goes to take a look at it, checking settings and the like. the keys are all noted with a little colorful mark of a note, a b c and all* This is nice ^u^
|/=^] "Thats good." |/=@] "hmm." *trying to think music stuff. they don't know to much on music*
( | W | ) >:Keyboard would be compatible with mix programs;
>: we could all make stuff together once we know stuff;
7B? *is awaiting a set of drums to bash*
[Tu!] *waits patiently*

][(] *calling over before he and Marlow are further from hearing range,* hope your music endeavors go well. ][(]
=[|:|3D] WhistleS AnD KeyS AnD MiX AnD AlL. =[|:|33]
[:]? @? [:]) @) *they gather around to look at the keyboard*
Learning music has a little in common with learning to read. See the letters? There are seven main notes, and they each are named the same as a letter.
0u0 It can be a little tricky... *taping at the board,* 'Do Me So Do'
|/=@] *are paying attention, so they can try and repeat information later if need be*
( ^ w ^ ) *liked the sound*
=:) =:? it might be good to make a book on learning music. =:?
7B? *no drums. Nyx figures to go back to coloring stuff*
[Tu!] ? [T~!] *realized that their face had flipped* [}|{] [!uT] 'Re Me La Do'

][(oO] =[|:|Oo]
