Well, this is pretty nerve-wracking, but I finally uploaded some music I composed. It's just four songs, between college and everything happening in Retrospec, I've been, well, pretty busy this year. But I hope to compose more soon!
Anyway... you can listen to them here. Please enjoy them.
And in less good news ... I had a rather troubling conversation with a ghost...
According to him, our Earth isn't what it seems. Apparently, while Recolle's real and stable, the rest of the world is actually a recreation of other Earths. It was made to be a centralized hub for planets across the galaxy that were destroyed, and Recolle's essentially the capital. It was all formed and balanced from the soul energy being generated by this city and the people here, and it's not exactly stable.
Good news, all the people outside of Recolle in this world are real, so it's not like our lives were fake. But bad news, if anything should happen to Recolle, the rest of the world would disintegrate. So...no pressure?
Oh, and has anyone heard anything about a river of souls beneath Recolle? A friend heard about it from another ghost, but we don't know much.
Sorry for all the troubling news. This isn't how I expected this post to go.

He'll dive into that in a minute. Important things first.]
Oh hey, you finally did it
You mentioned doing something like this sooner or later
Good for you
[Needless to say, Crow's one of your biggest fans.]
no subject
Aha, yeah! Thanks!
Though really it's thanks to Eren.
I tried to chicken out several times but he forced me to go through with it.
[EREN IS SITTING RIGHT NEARBY]
no subject
Somehow, that doesn't surprise me in the least
Give him my warmest regards
Snapchat his reaction too, just for kicks
[You know, when you see him next]
no subject
[HE GOT IT BRO]
So do you like it?
no subject
You bet I do
You've got a pretty wide range of moods here, so I think everyone'll find something out of your little playlist
Just keep pushing yourself out of your comfort zone, you'll see yourself improve in leaps and bounds
no subject
I will! I'm not stopping now. Though I gotta say thank you. Some of your critiques really did help.
no subject
[And snuck onto a playlist for when he wants to wind down after night classes.]
Heh, I'm glad. Can't say I know the finer points of music, but from the sound of things, you really took that crit and showed it who's boss
I'd like to see a violin and piano combination song, though. The best of both your worlds
no subject
Haha, well you not knowing the finer points of music is part of why it was helpful. If the casual listener can't pick up on the message I'm trying to convey, then it's no good. And even without training, you still have a good ear for things.
Aha, I'll keep that in mind for the next batch. I did that a little with the last song, but it felt like it needed a little more back up.
no subject
This isn't the time to compliment ol' Crow. Jeez, this is your time in the spotlight!
The feeling you're having right now--hope you commit that to memory, cause it's only going to get even bigger and better. You've taken your first step into a larger world
I'm just here behind the stage watching
But keep doin' what you're doing. My playlist's gonna need a lot more than four
no subject
[It's easy to praise his friends! That's such a sweet message to get. There's a pause before Elliot responds, because my gosh.
He's so lucky to have these people in his life.]
I will. I'll remember this as I keep taking steps! Just watch, I'll fill your playlist to the brim!
Though you know, I could always get you seats to watch.
no subject
Good! You're no longer just Elliot Craig--You're Elliot Craig, maestro of the strings!
Wait seriously? You know I'd be there!
no subject
Yeah! I mean, unless you like the dramatics of being backstage of course.
no subject
But if it were up to me, I'd want to make sure everything went perfect
Your outfit, sound, stage
All of it
no subject
Oh yeah?
Well maybe I should call you next time I get hired for a gig.
I'd make sure you were paid, of course.
no subject
But fine, you keep up the goody-two-shoes violinist routine, I'll be jotting down some ideas. Eren's ideas probably suck
[Don't show him that, Elliot. Or do.]
Wait, seriously? SIGN ME UP!!
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ CASH MONEY!!!
AnD ALL MY LOVe AND SUPPorT!!!!!
no subject
Haha, Eren's input on my music is pretty limited, honestly.
[The boy would praise Elliot non-stop even if Elliot played this]
Seriously!
I don't have a head for fashion or general aesthetic like I do for music.
So it'd be nice to have another person keeping on eye on that too.
no subject
[It may have been overzealous, but Crow would never, ever say that Eren didn't love this man.]
Next time you get a gig hit me up and I'll dress you to the nines, got it?
no subject
[it's true, there is no denying Eren's love for him. Even someone with as long self-esteem as Elliot can't deny it, it's too strong]
Hehe, got it! [And then a pause before he sends another message]Holy crap we've done this before.
[GUESS WHO JUST GOT A MEMORY]
