"You have reached Solus zos Galvus. I fear I am unavailable at the moment, but should your query be of an urgent nature, pray leave a message. I shall endeavor to return it anon."
My, my! Have you taken a fancy with him? I am certain he will be flattered. He is a kind soul, even if there are times mischievousness takes hold of the reins. I am fair certain that if you were to approach him, he would not deny you.
I shall consult my calendar and inform you anon. But do know that you ever have an audience in me, truly yours is a talent worthy of recognition and reverence, and I should be glad to afford you it. Whether by me or others.
But do not misunderstand, technology certain has its usages, as a technologist myself I have my own bias for it, but a recording will never replace the sound in its purest and raw form. Technology affords us that which we might not be able to naturally produce, but it can never replace that which we can.
[He's suddenly glad this is text because it allows him a moment to pause and stare off into space at that first bit.]
I never said that, did I? [Might as well have.] I know better than to think of things like that when it comes to those sorts of situations. But I certainly would not say no if I was approached again, that I'm certain of.
You give me far too much credit, though I appreciate it. What little control I have over things here, at least I know that much I still grasp.
It can't, that's true, but it does allow for a fuller sound than if it were just one musician. I have no interests, currently, in trying to organize a bunch of musicians and the headache of it, so it does well enough for my purposes.
Ah, you prefer to play the part of the pursued than the pursuer, is that it? Well, fortunate for you, that he likewise typically prefers such a dynamic.
Most believe modesty is worn best by young maidens and men of humble qualities. You are neither, so mayhap you should don a costume of confidence instead?
Yes, it can rather be a bother when too many artists are in the same space, where one might find it inspiring, another could find it stifling. So, I cannot blame you for relying on such utility. All the same, I shall enjoy it best in person. Speaking of, I do suppose this following weekend is relatively free, should you find yourself inclined towards company.
[THANKS, SOLUS. He's just full shoving his face into the nearest pillow for a bit.]
You're reading too much into it. There's nothing like that. [Liar.]
Working on it. Or trying to. Though it's hard to change a habit you've grown more than accustomed to. But still feels all kinds of unreal, especially in a new world like this.
Stifling, loud, personality clashes...
Though I should be free enough this weekend, the only thing I had planned only takes about an hour.
It is your tale to tell, I suppose. [Yeah, he's gonna tell Hythlodaeus that Johann is longing for him.]
Such is the state of an unrecognized artist, I fear. Ere long you shall have the confidence your skill should afford, I promise you that.
However, I meant not this weekend, for I have quite the agenda already, but rather the next. My apologies for being unclear. All the same, should it suit you, then I should be glad to host you, or if you wish, you can host me.
Technically, I did end up becoming recognized previously. But... well, circumstances. And it not being here. But such is the life or death of an artist.
Ah, that's fine as well. Either way is fine by me, my place is far smaller than your own but it might not be a terrible idea to find somewhere outside, either... I've been rather fond of the outdoors as of late. [Mostly because his Pokemon chill out when allowed to run around outside.]
No truer tragedy, really. Well, there is no reason you cannot become recognized once more, as you deserve.
I do suppose the outdoors would make a fitting backdrop for your artistry. Perhaps we could meet at one of the parks in downtown Goldenrod? Ever are they beautiful and peaceful.
[And maybe he used to be in the habit of dozing off in the parks of Amaurot, watching the dance of the souls within the aetherial sea of the underworld... What he would give to behold it again, alas.]
[Well, not exactly, after all, he doesn't want Hythlodaeus to go without.]
Indeed. It does one's heart good to know that we are not the only men with a modicum of taste. Certainly, you will find your place aloft the common man.
Then it is settled! Let us aim for Saturday, mid-afternoon. Say around 1 o'clock?
[And because he's ever the multitasker, he already has the specific park decided upon, because he's sending the address over as well. He's nothing if not efficient.]

Slowly but surely working on it, if the people supporting me are anything to go by. And my reception on the 'gears not that long ago.
The parks would do quite nicely and would allow a few of my Pokemon to roam as I do so. For the best, I think.

They do say that music is a language that everyone can understand. And I can believe it.
Saturday around one, that works.
[Ever efficient, he's not remotely surprised at this point.]
Also writing that address down. See you then.

[He does mean that. After all, he will be getting a message from Hythlodaeus here soon, and who knows what the week will hold for him from there!]
