As promised, Maiden Cassis.

... You okay?

[musicinall]

Maiden Cassis asked me about my music. I promised to write a song for her. But...like all my music, it did not turn out.

[omgcosplayfreak]

Why not?

[musicinall]

Did you listen to it...? It isn't music when it sounds like that.

[gaz4prez]

Ya know, classical music isn't really my bag.

But even if she didn't like it, I thought it was cathartic.

[musicinall]

You think so? Then I am glad it pleased you. This is the only sort of music I can play.

[gaz4prez]

It's pretty...and sad. But these days, I don't mind sad so much.

[musicinall]

Is that so? Sadness is a common emotion.

[scarlet_tech]

That was...quite sad.

Are you sad?

[musicinall]

Sad...? I possibly am. I wanted to write something for the Maiden Cassis. I was unable to write anything of true music. Yet people here seem to appreciate it...I've never had people appreciate my music before.

[scarlet_tech]

It sounds like real music. Music is a way to show your feelings and convey them to others. It's a sad song, but it is true music.

Is it perhaps you cannot write happy music?

[musicinall]

Maybe. But then if I cannot play anything except sad music, I cannot convey all emotions. And then...if music is the spectrum of emotions, I cannot play music.

[secondkaiba]

That music was very good. Sad, though. It almost makes me miss my violin.

[musicinall]

Violin? I requested one. I like violins too.

[secondkaiba]

Yes, I used to play. I had to give it up, though... I never had time to pursue it. Maybe I'll pick it up again.

[musicinall]

You should. There is time in this place. I would enjoy hearing your music.

[turquoisebat]

T-That was...

......

It was beautiful, but it... was so sad...

[musicinall]

...Did it displease you, Maiden Cassis?

[turquoisebat]

Displease me...? N-No! Not at all! It was just... Why was it so sad?

[musicinall]

Then you liked it, Maiden Cassis...?

My creator told me...that because of what I am, I cannot play music. Nothing I create is music. It all sounds like this.
