Do they still sell MP3 players and CDs? Where do I find music here?

[Priorities, Minato has them.]

Have you tried singing?

[afoolshope]

I'm not asking for karaoke.

[cranekin]

(SHOT DOWN BEFORE HE COULD EVEN SHOOT HIS SHOT...)

It's how people used to make music...

[afoolshope]

[He asked specifically for CDs and MP3s!! He ain't singin!!]

I'm aware. I'm not asking how to make my own music.

I had an MP3 player back home and a laptop full of music and CDs. Obviously I can't get those back so I'd like something similar.

[cranekin]

(The problem is he doesn't speak MP3 or CD or these random letters at all!!!)








What do they look like?

[afoolshope]

[oop.]

uh.

[It took a minute, but eventually he managed to get an image up based on his memories of his MP3 player and CD with the name "Lotus Juice" on it.]

[cranekin]

(He's looking at the picture and let's say he gives a little [like] reaction to both of them to show he's read them both or something. He might have a tiny inkling of an idea but just to make sure--)

Are these devices from another era, perhaps?

[afoolshope]

Yeah, like 200 years ago. I don't know what they do now for music or if they do anything for like...

I guess it's considered antique now. I'm from 2010.

I saw a shop in the city that sold small machines and devices.

(When they were out investigating the hyrbids on the market. There are some actually legit shops and businesses on the front of these streets.)

They seemed quite worn. Just looking at them made me feel tired. Maybe they were old?

(They all looked new and unfamiliar to him.)

[afoolshope]

Small machines and devices that made you feel tired? What did they look like?

[What a description too]

[cranekin]

(So tired. It just made him feel all worn out and creaky, like he was rusty and brittle, too.)

I saw a colorful, hairy doll of a creature that could blink with big eyes and speak to you.

(A Furby. He means a Furby.)

An electronic book that could tell you words find different languages.

(An electronic dictionary.)

Oh, and a machine the size of a large pebble with the spirit of a small creature inside. You could feed it and take it on walks. It was very friendly.

(A Tamagotchi.....)

And a lot of lamps!

(At least he knows what a lamp is???? Anyway, it really was a lot of knick-knacks.)

[afoolshope]

But nothing that plays music, huh? Well, it sounds like some kind of antique shop anyway and what I'm looking for is considered an antique by now...

Can you tell me where that shop is?

[cranekin]

Nothing I could recognize.
Give me a moment.

(He has to try to retrace his steps to find the shop... what he sends is a pin for a location in the city. It isn't exact and seems to be somewhere in the middle of one of the many shopping streets.)

It was around here.

(If Makoto fiddles around with the options some, he may be able to do a "virtual tour" and see a shop with stereos and old computers in the front. It's an older image of the shop so Tsurumaru doesn't immediately recognize it but it's easy enough to figure out.)

[afoolshope]

[Minato isn't quite sure how to do that yet, but he nonetheless makes a mental note of it anyway.]

I'll check it out, then. Thank you.
