21: That's why they call me Mister Fahrenheit.

[So, what's a demon to do when he's bored? Taint a few people's souls? Do something so annoying that one has fun just hearing people's reactions over it? Play some music to get yourself into the groove of doing evil and generally spreading wiles?]

[WHY NOT DO ALL AT ONCE?]

[But Crowley being Crowley, he's going to be sneaky about it. So he turns on the camera, looking incredibly genial and obviously not up to anything bad at all whatsoever.]


So...it's come to my attention that most of you haven't got a clue about what truly great music is. I mean, sure, your worlds and all have nice composers, I'm sure, but in our world, there's a certain genre of music that is scientifically proven to lower stress, make you smarter, and calm you down.

And what is this miraculous genre of music, you may ask? Why, it's none other than the truly breathtaking genre of classical music. Here. Have a listen.

[He reaches over away from the camera, and suddenly, one can hear a lovely tune playing in the background.]

Like it, huh? Well, the guy who made this piece of music? He made so much more. And don't even get me started on all the other composers we have back home who were geniuses at what they did. Bach, Beethoven, Mozart...the list goes on and on.

[He steeples his fingers together, grin widening.]

Since I want everyone to get intimately acquainted with this world-changing magic, I am going to provide some of it for you to download onto your SFCs so you can have a listen whenever you want. For free! You don't even need to thank me or anything.

Trust me, I'm doing it all for you...

[His smile grows ever so wider, and then the camera turns off, and a link named
BestPiecesofClassicalMusic.zip pops up for you to download.]

[If you do, well...prepared to have your SFC blast it on the highest volume with no way to turn it down. And it isn't stopping playing it until the whole album is over.]

[Now Vatheon can understand his pain with having to listen it for years and years on end. HIS JOB IS DONE HERE.]

[ooc: The link takes you to a Youtube video of Queen's Greatest Hits. What did you expect from Crowley, really. >>]

[ooc; Kuro is a demon cat/nekomata and he can communicate telepathically to other demons as well. For everyone's sake I am going to assume this can translate over the SFC too :')]

[Wow, what weird music. 'It sounds like something you'd listen to before you sleep!']

...so, what is actually in that file?

[Zelda won't be fooled twice. You did this at April Fool's, Crowley! She won't spoil his fun at least.]

[Angelo doesn't download the music, because what is technology even though he's slowly gotten use to the SFC's main functions. But he does feel the need to comment on the classical piece.]

That piece of music you provided before was certainly beautiful, so you have many people who compose music such as that in your world?

[You know, Aziraphale hadn't really thought much of it when Crowley was expressing sudden interest in educating the masses about classical music. And this little file had popped up so conveniently for him, all he had to do was select it and let it download.

You see, the problem with being about a decade behind Crowley and was that he was also a decade behind humans and their technological advances. The Internet, for instance, wasn't really a thing yet, not a widely known thing anyway. Certainly nothing he was used to.

Therefore, Aziraphale had never had the misfortune of experiencing a computer virus, and thus hadn't learned to become suspicious of mysterious links.

Needless to say, this be-bop music... the music that was supposedly "hip" among the younger crowd, is the last thing that he expected. And yet, at the same time, he realizes that he should've been expecting this all along.

And it won't stop oh dear Heavens why won't it stop??

He tries everything, but the little device will not stop singing to him, and his irritation has reached its peak. If he tried to miracle away the music, he'd almost definitely break the whole thing.

So he decides to do the next best thing.

Aziraphale goes next door, and opens up the door without knocking-- wait no. He stops, closes the door, knocks on it, and then opens it back up, stomping-- no, walking heavily-- towards Crowley.

Up in his face the SFC is shoved, still blasting Queen.]


Turn it off this instant. [With a certain amount of irony, Aziraphale is hissing his words.]

[Video] Him listening to this song is canon in the manga I AM SO SORRY.

[... You shouldn't have done that, Crowley.]

[Because you get a video back of Katsu grinning, and then pressing his headphones to the SFC and playing this song.]

The music's pretty good, and it's great of you to offer and all, but I'll pass. It's not my kind of music, you know? Sweet as it sounds.
immoralflame: (Look around around | I see you heh)

Have one of the few people who won't be bothered by this!

[Sol just kind of regards the SFC a bit flatly; he usually just ignores these things. The talk of music, though? He's okay with that. Whassis... Which means letting the music start and scarcely reacting at first.

Actually, he kind of smirks. And he probably makes the only other person in the bubble who'd enjoy it. Sorry, Crowley, you kind of failed on that one. The Gear's just MAYBE doing a little mental rocking out. Hey, he's still in his 20s somewhere in his head.]


Needs more'a their older stuff.

[And yes, he's very quietly (and gruffly) humming along to "Killer Queen". Fuck all y'all.]
