tune

Trisan listens quietly to the song, nodding or tilting his head at certian points.

"I'd say raise the first 13 seconds by a half octave and make it just a beat slower. It'll make it seem less grounded and more dreamy, if that's what you were going for. If it's meant to sound nature-y and pretty, keep the pitch the same and just add a bit more ambience to it. At the 14 second mark, and ending at the 24 second mark, do the same thing but add a bit more tone to it. From then to the end is pretty good, maybe just add a bit of depth to it with a low bass drum or bass kick, if you can. It'll make it pop just that little bit more." he says after the song ends and he takes off the headphones. "But that's all just personal opinion. I'm here for history, not music."

(Also, just saying, I have about an hour before I have to go)

(Alright that's cool!)

Lucas listens, smiling, “Thanks.” He loops the headphones around his neck, “That does make sense.” He tilts his head, “History?” He makes a slightly face, “Isn’t that kinda boring? Like, I enjoy it, but it’s always been a burning class to me.”

"If you don't learn from history you will forever be doomed to repeat it. Why do you think so many people are so afraid nowadays? This is literally all the same shit that's happened before." Tristan shrugs.

Lucas laughs, “Never said I didn’t like it or learn from it. I just said that the class it’s self is boring. If you give it too me in an interesting way other than textbooks or video’s then I’ll pay attention.” He shrugs, “But that’s how my mother taught it to me. Didn’t have the means for anything better than that.” He turns, walking to his bed and putting away the instruments.

Tristan chuckles slightly. "True, you didn't say that. But you're remembering high-school and middle school. College is a lot more interesting.

He pauses at the last comment about it. "Homeschooled?"

Lucas nods, “Yup. My whole life.” He flops down, “It gave me more time to do my music, which I’m happy with.” He pauses, thinking for a moment, “But I guess I did miss out on things like friends.”

Tristan groans. "You never went to school? Okay, I'm going to tell you everything I remember about middle and elementary school, though it may be different than what London and Ireland do with school."

And he proceeds to explain things like block scheduling and school computers and tablets and things like that for the next long while.

Luc listens, tilting his head, “Okay. . . Let me get this straight, you actually enjoyed</en> having your life fed to you in a spoon? And being surrounded by lots of other kids?” He makes a face, “Hah, no thank you.”

Tristan chuckles.

"Not- exactly. See, what I enjoyed most - and this will sound crazy - was the cafeteria food." he explains.

Lus makes a face, “You’re weird.” He lays back on his bed, “Mass produced food—“ He shakes his head laughing, “By the way, I’m Luc.”

"Hey, don't knock it 'til you've tried it!" Tristan smiles.

"Tristan Gast. Just call me Tristan." he grins, holding his hand out in Lucas' direction for him to shake.

Luc looks at his hand and then hums, shaking it slightly, pulling his hand back, “My friend told me it’s absolutely horrible.” He shudders, “I biliée her.”

"She must have had a horrible school then, because school food really isn't that bad." he laughs, firmly shaking Luc's hand before the other man withdraws it.

Lucas hums, “Eh. . . I don’t know.” He lean against the wall, relaxing, and then looking at Tristan, “So. . . Why history?”

"Because I find it interesting. I don't really need a reason, now do I?" Tristan chuckles.

Luc shakes his head, “No. . . I guess not.”

('Sup?"

Tristan chuckles. "It's like asking you, 'Why music?'"

Lucas pauses, “Makes sense.” He chuckles, “It was a stupid question.”

(Nothing much, you?)

(heh. . . to make a long story short I'll tag you in my 'announcments' forum post lol)

"I know." he grins.

He's silent for a moment before yawning. "God, it's still only 4:00."

Lucas laughs, humming to himself, “Yup.” He rolls onto his back, pulling on his headphones absently.

(Alright lol)

Tristan yawns again.

"I'm going to take a nap." he says, closing his eyes. Just a habit at this point, he couldn't tell the difference between having his eyes open or closed anyways.

Lucas cherubs, “Fine by me. . .” He sits a up, pulling his laptop closer, going into his own headspace quietly.
