[cry_brady]

When you pay attention your journal this day, the clear voice of young Maribelle rings out.

"Ahem! Ladies and Gentlemen, I would like to formally introduce to you my son Brady. Say hello to everyone, Brady dear."

"... Tch. Hey. ... Y'know, I already said my piece when I first got here."

There's the sound of a parasol being bonked over Brady's head for his atrocious manners. "Yes dear, but we are formally introducing you to everyone!"

"Ow!" He groans, rubbing his head. After a sigh, he clears his throat. "... My name is Brady. It is a pleasure to make your acquaintance."

"Very good. Now as I was saying, this is my son Brady, and today we are going to play for you a violin duet that I have trained him extensively for. Are you ready Brady?"

There's a bit of a pause. "Shouldn't we do something more important, like helpin' the captain, or checking on maps, or..." An even longer pause. You can almost hear the glare. "... Yes, Ma."

After some extra grumbling, the strings slowly start to play out. Despite the argument, the two are clearly talented, The performance is full of heart, passion, and dedication. As the last notes ring out...

"Nicely done, darling."

"... Thanks, Ma."

"And with that, I bid you adieu good people, until next time."

"... There's gunna be a next time?!"

[Have some enthusiastic applause. You may have garnered a bit of an audience during the performance.]

Wow! That was amazing!

[he turns away, starting to blush.]

It was mostly her.

[seakingbait]

[She sits up on her bubble, shaking her head and smiling.]

I heard lots of beautiful sounds from both of you.

[Maribelle wraps an arm around Brady's shoulder.]

Now, now Brady. There's no need to be so modest, you played excellently.

[voice]

[cherrybombpie]

Mr. Brady! I see you found your mother, and you two are excellent musicians!

[voice]

[cry_brady]

Kodachi... Heh. Yeah, didn't take too long over here.

How are things are your end? Anyone givin' you any trouble?

[voice]

[cherrybombpie]

There are some people who simply don't know how to be polite to a lady, but otherwise, I am quite fine, thank you for asking.

I didn't know you were so talented!

[hoodwinking]

[the sound of applause rings through the journal!]

How wonderful! Your family is really talented.

[cry_brady]

It's all her really. I'll probably never be as good as her, but that's fine with me.

voice;

[hoodwinking]

Don't sell yourself short, sir! You both did your part, and you carried your fair share.

[grizzly_tea]

You're very kind dear. I've been teaching my son the violin ever since he was able to hold one. Though... I can't say for sure whether or not Brady takes after his father when it comes to his musical talents.

[There wasn't really much of an easy way to explain that she didn't know who the father was thanks to timey wimey shenanigans.]

voice;

[hoodwinking]

Mm, well regardless, you certainly have raised him well! He seems like a well-meaning young man.

[wavesoakedlegs]

[Even with the worries of the day on his mind, Mitsuhide can't help but be endeared (and impressed) by this display. He claps lightly before he responds, tone soft and warm.]

A fine performance, Master Brady; I am glad you were able to obtain an instrument. I extend my appreciation for such talents to your honoured mother, as well.

[cry_brady]

Heh... nice to hear from you, Mitsuhide. My play wasn't much, but I guess it's okay to start out on.

[grizzly_tea]

Brady was rather fortunate that I returned to this world when I did, for I had some money set aside for the two of us to acquire new violins. Well... used violins, but instruments that can be played if treated with loving care.

[He's not sure what's stranger, hearing violin music coming out of a book or knowing who's playing on the other end. ...no, scratch that. It's Maribelle. Of course she'd do something like this.

Well, unusual or not, it wasn't a bad performance, and so it deserves applause.]

Nice.

[Voice]

[cry_brady]

... Thanks, I guess. I, uh, still have a lot of practice to go through, though...

[Voice]

[grizzly_tea]

I wouldn't have guessed you have an ear for classical music Gauis. Sometimes you surprise me with how refined you can be.

[Voice]

[summing_it_up]

That was really nice!

[Voice]

[cry_brady]

It was okay, I guess.

voice;

[melodyssong]

That tune was happenin, I mean to say it was beautiful and full of feeling.

voice;

[cry_brady]

Uh... th-thanks. I mean, I still need a lot of practice.

voice;

[grizzly_tea]

Happenin? Is this some form of new age slang that the common folk use? My, it seems this form of language the underclass uses changes on a year to year bias.

[Tactful Maribelle... very tactful.]
