Not that I can think of. Though if you want, I'd love to talk about Aria and Niniane. I really like the way they paired together.
Oh. Yeah, I've been liking that dynamic, too...
o3o Not a ton, but a small handful. It started a short while back when I found the Beatles White Album for super cheap, and bought it even though I didn't have a record player, because, like... it's an original from 1968 and it's the Beatles and it hardly cost a thing so like aaaah and then that, plus the fact that I'd been thinking a lot recently about just how cool and interesting vinyl records are, especially with how awesome they sound (which was brought on by a lot of things), made me really want to buy a record player and maybe start collecting vinyl and such. So then, once I found a guy willing to sell me one for $20 (which is insanely cheap, I might add, having looked at a bunch of record players online beforehand), I bought some other records while I waited for a chance to meet the guy and actually buy the thing, so now I have a total of 4 albums, which technically means 5 records when you consider the fact that the White Album is a two-disc set.
*giggles*, no no. It actually sounds kinda cool. Not everyone has something like that, and I think that it looks kinda cool. I mean, having a big giant disk has a lot more presence than having itunes downloaded on your computer.o3o Not a ton, but a small handful.

Aaaand after a while of that vinyl sitting around and collecting dust, I finally got a chance to buy the record player and try them out!!
And I'm now falling in love with vinyl very quickly. ^^ Which sort of makes me feel like a hipster, but... whatever. I have a record player and it's really fucking cool. ^^
*nod, nod* 'Tis one of the reasons why I'm really liking vinyl, actually. I mean, don't get me wrong -- digital music can be a lot more convenient, but there's just something about having these records and this giant-ass machine to spin them on that just has this sort of... aesthetic to it. I mean, this stuff is fairly high-maintenance -- records are not only big but also thin and easily breakable/bendable, not to mention you don't want to get any scratches on them, of course, and you have to clean all the dust off of them before playing them for best sound quality (and same goes for the needle on the player, too), but, you know what, all that extra work is, in a strange way, actually sort of meaningful. It makes it all feel more worth it to listen to awesome music, especially since vinyl has a rather different sound to it than digital music, and can potentially sound even better than a squeaky-clean digital version if you take really good care of it all. ^^ It's hard to explain, but... wow do I love having this stuff.
I totally understand. For whatever reason, sometimes something being less convenient can make it more meaningful. It is kinda like how in minecraft a giant castle made in creative mode is far less memorable than one that you made in survival, or like how in pokemon a team made during a regular playthrough is less meaningful than one made during a nuzlock challenge. When something is limited and we have to experience challenge to create something worthwhile and meaningful, the experience of obtaining that meaningful thing becomes part of how we remember that activity.
Yeah, I agree. I mean, I don't wanna turn into one of those snobs that constantly regards vinyl as being vastly superior to digital, since I'd be lying if I said I didn't still listen to a ton of digital music, but like... man, vinyl sure is more fun to listen to. Especially since there are just certain qualities to the sound that digital just cannot match. ^^
Really just anyone who berates someone's favorite way of experiencing anything is annoying.
This... is a thing?
Kaga-kun, honestly, the only people who would think that are people who don't know you at all. You are an absolute sweetheart, and you don't like being disrespectful to anyone. Plus, you are super open-minded. There is absolutely nothing wrong with loving something, and I don't want you to stop loving something just because there is a possibility someone who doesn't know anything about you might think you were associated with jerks. It is kinda like how I don't mind calling specific people by honorifics or throwing in the occasional japanese word, even though there is a chance someone might mistake me for a weeaboo. I get to love anime, express that love, and I can do it without being obnoxious or forceful about it. I can't see how vinyl would be any different.
^^ D'awww. Now I feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Thanks, Luna. I guess it is kind of ridiculous to be so afraid of looking like a snob, now that you mention it. XD
Well that's just... sad.
Are you me? Is this my conscience speaking? Guys, I've lost it. I knew I would.
Yay, so, I've currently got Aria in her room. Where/how are we going to have them meet?
I could always have him get lost again while searching for his room. He hasn't found it yet.
So, maybe the set up is your character is lost, Aria sees them looking lost, offers to help look for the room?
