What’s your favorite instrument
Tumblr media
“Oh, oh! Do vocals count? I like my voice, of course!  And if they don’t. . .keyboards can have lots of variety in sound since they’re electronic, and they help make some of the most cheerful sounds aside from a synthesizer! But guitars and violins always have the aesthetic advantage, y’know?  You always look super cool with a guitar, or really elegant holding a violin!”
Tumblr media
“I agree on the point of vocals. Of course, I find human voices and body percussion to be especially pleasing. . . .  But in lieu of that, woodwind instruments have a wonderful sound, don’t they? And I know how to play the organ, so I appreciate them and their place in a church environment as well.”
Tumblr media
“I. . .ah, I don’t listen to much music. Father Azazel is teaching me to play organ for wedding ceremonies, however. I feel a certain affinity for trumpets as well, although I can’t play one at all.”
Tumblr media
“I like the daf from my home world! It’s a sort of frame drum or tambourine!  Although I was fascinated by castanets when I first heard them--and I agree that trumpets and other brass instruments are a lot of fun!”
Tumblr media
“I’m a bit on the simpler side. I like piano. . .although, I suppose I enjoy the atypical angelic image of harps as well?  Koto are also the national instrument of Japan, and I enjoy the traditional sound.”
Tumblr media
"Back in Kamuy Kotan we had an instrument called a tonkori that you could sometimes hear humans play. They’re gaining some popularity here, as well!”
Tumblr media
"Synthesize me, captain! We're a DJ, so we’ve gotta turn it up!!”  By which Nyarl surely means ‘synthesizer’ and ‘turntables.’ “And don’t forget the waterphone!!”
Tumblr media
“The organ and piano always remind me of being here. I think wind chimes are quite pretty, as are bells.  But my favorite is any kind of drum!  Haha, I guess that’s to be expected of me, since I like hitting things so much?”
