Let Me Sing You the Song of My People
Who: Vanyel Ashkevron & Anyone
Broadcast: Yes
Action: S.S. Starstruck
When: Now
[ The feed pops open to show Vanyel, his hair pulled back in a loose queue that falls over one shoulder. It's like he tried his best to look good for this broadcast, but that surely was not it at all. He didn't even bother to dye out that gray streak running from his temple back into the rest of his hair. In his arms he is cradling a guitar in his arms, fingers idly plucking, soft little twangs underscoring his words when he speaks. ]
Good day - evening, perhaps? It is so hard to tell on the ships.
I was wondering, as we travel to our new destination, if any one would wish to share the music of their home worlds with me? Music has always been a passion of mine, and I feel that the music of a world tells a much deeper story than simply words. I would appreciate, and be honored, to hear yours.
[ For those who are aboard the Starstruck, he is sitting in what counts as his room, strumming the guitar though the tune itself is something that is more at home in a medieval king's court than it is aboard a sleek spaceship - or even on a guitar. He will gladly receive any visitors who wish to stop by. ]

I was first in line to inherit my family's title before I became a Herald. So yes. My mother was very sure I was ready to handle myself at court, and she had very refined tastes.
[ Those had been his favorite days, sitting at her feet, playing for her and her ladies. ]
What of you? What music do you prefer the most?
no subject
Music that I prefer? Hmm...
[It really shouldn't be all that difficult of a question, but, given all the recent craziness in her life, she was finding it somewhat hard to answer. Eventually, she just shrugs.]
Whatever's popular back home, I suppose. To be honest, I have not had a lot of time recently to just sit and enjoy music. Even before coming here.
no subject
[ Similar, and also very not. Nobles? Yes. But their similarities tended to end there. ]
No? Well, we have time not to correct that.
[ His smile widened. ]
I could make some tea and we could look through some music files I have acquired.
no subject
Why not? As you say, it's not like we do not have the time.
[She stands up from her seat and gestures for him to lead the way.]
no subject
[ He pushes up as well, leaving the guitar behind to lead the way out of his room and towards the kitchen. ]
I am glad a musical enthusiast has joined our crew.
