4... walk like a person

So, I've heard there was some kind of band around here, although it's missing its key ingredient. And then the whole chorus thing was okay, but man, I guess it's not my thing, you know? I'd quit that scene ages ago after we'd gone triple platinum.

Anyways, I was wondering what do other people do in this place besides running around crying about monsters and no food and no lights and stuff? How many people are in a band? Are there doctors and repairman here? And why do I think this is a crappy episode of Gillian's Island?

Yeah, there does seem like a few running around here, not that I actually recognize most of them.

You play?

I sing. And I write the lyrics and sometimes set the tone for Tohma's arrangements.

What do you play? Anything interesting?

[Yeah, but musicians should at least know who can do what.]

Piano, violin... classical music. Lately I've been switching over to conducting a lot.

So mostly Western traditions, huh? That's cool. I spent a couple years studying the forms.

Exclusively - I grew up in Europe. Berlin, Prague, Vienna... my father was a concert pianist.

I've visited those places while on tour but never really got to stay there - my manager was pretty strict about traveling. I had a grandfather that played, but my parents wanted me to go into medicine.

A tough transition, going against your parents wishes.

Ah, I'm Chiaki Shinichi by the way. It's a pleasure.

They used to get pretty mad when I skipped cram school to go hang out at Tohma's place and pound out songs on his baby grand.

I'm Sakuma Ryuichi. It's nice to meet you.
