A Public Guitar Show (Open to 2)

Ray had some sage advice or knowledge when he said it's not like you pay for a try. Sounds like something his father used to say, granted in different words, but the meaning was the same. Akira said that he wouldn't mind helping out because its for a good cause. "Well you need to figure out what to do about your instrument situation. We aren't going to be able to play a piano out in the rain, nor can we easily transport a piano around." The wanderer would point out, after unless Akaria had a vehicle big enough it would be difficult for him to take a piano...anywhere. Ray also agreed with the fact that guitars were among the more popular instruments making it easy to transcribe songs into their key.

"They're also easy to transport." He would add, a statement that came from his experience. He had carried the guitar in his hands around since he left Africa. It had been a faithful and reliable companion through thick and thin. Through the good and bad times, speaking of time both of his new acquaintances had agreed that the weekends would be the best time, he had figured as much. "Alright good, thanks for the feedback. I figured that would be the best time too...." He would reply but trailed off as he caught a glance of a nearby electronic clock. "Dang it, I hate to run out on you two, but I gotta go. I'm working at the bar tonight." He would say as he set his guitar in the case, and locked the case up. "It was nice meeting you two, but I gotta run. Sorry about all this." With that the bartender slung the case strap over his shoulder, securing the guitar to his back, and would run off in a hurry to make it on time to his work.

So to say, Hachiro was pretty much right when he pointed out that there might be problems with a piano. That big of an instrument obviously couldn’t be carried anywhere easily, not by an average human at least. But, if he remembered well enough, Akira didn’t seem to have a problem with trying for a keyboard a while ago, so maybe that would be the solution. Unless they came up with a way to shrink a piano to move it. Which was ridiculous to even think of as a possibility. ’Great, now I’m even thinking about such useless matters….’

Ray would nod when the older man added that guitars were easy to transport. Well, in contrast to a piano it was painfully obvious. A guitar you could easily carry in hand. He had been preparing for another nod or something of the like when Hachiro spoke about the feedback, until the man suddenly realized he had to go. He worked at a bar? Not what he would have initially expected from a man who played on a street. ‘’It’s fine. Have fun at your work.’’, he would say without giving his words much thought. He was wondering mostly about how this would work out. They didn’t even know where the man was from. Now that he ran off, they could only hope to bump into him again if this group play was ever to happen. Unless he had a way to track them down which sounded a bit too creepy to Ray. ‘’So, that was it?’’, he would mutter under his breath, staring in the direction the man ran off to. He was stuck deciding whether to go off himself, or hang around this place a while longer. He didn’t really have any specific activity planned for today.

"About the piano, I could always use a keyboard instead. I don't think there is much difference between the two anyway. Akira would say when Hachiro pointed out the problems of having a piano as an instrument. Akira chuckled a bit as he thought about carrying a piano. That would be quite hilarious to see someone carrying a huge piano around.

Looking at Ray, Akira would also nod when Hachiro said that guitars were easy to transport. Transporting a piano would be quite ridiculous indeed. But for Akira to actually play the keyboard he had to buy one. As Akira thought about getting a keyboard for a cheap price, Hachiro realized that he had to leave for work at the bar. Akira would smile at Hachiro as he excused himseld. "Well then, I shall talk to you later. Have fun." Akira would say. Seems like he left. It might be hard to see each other again, but Akira had a feeling they would meet again soon. Akira looked at his watch. It seemed like he also had to go. "Looks like I have to go pick up my headphones from the repair. Talk to you after i get my headphones back, so later." Akira turned around and walked off.

[EXIT]

After Hachiro walked off to be on time to his work, Akira had to go as well. So that's where his headphones were? After all, Ray did remember the teen having them on the last time he saw him at the firework shop. Some things could get broken so easily. He was glad he didn't carry much stuff with himself, so there wasn't a big danger of having repairs done. Not that he couldn't pay for a few, but it was honestly an annoyance having to put up with it. ''Alright, see you whenever.'', he would mumble, nodding at the other as he went his way. Now that he was alone, he might as well go walk a bit more. He originally went out for some...reason, although he couldn't really remember anymore. Well, what gives, maybe it'll hit him after a while....
