It's for the best.

[ NO TACT AT ALL. ]

You received a music box?

[holyspirits]

[ despite the zero tact they do think that's a reasonable and understandable answer so they nod. ]

I like music. And I suppose there could be a metaphor in there too.

[obdure]

[ Snorts. ]

Who doesn't like music? Only a madman. [ IMAGINE. ] You should play it. Let's hear the tune.

[holyspirits]

[ they laugh. ]

I agree. [ they wind it up to find out! it plays clair de lune. wow...! ]

[obdure]

[ he would not have been born by then ]

I've never heard this song.

[holyspirits]

Really? It's considered a classic, where I'm from. And it's royalty-free. [ ok ]

[obdure]

[ he is trying so hard... to understand what royalty-free can mean.

none of it makes sense. ]

What does that mean?

[holyspirits]

Oh, sorry. It means that you don't have to pay to use it.

[ that won't help. ]

[obdure]

... You have to pay to play the song?

[ THAT IS BULLSHIT ]

[holyspirits]

Well, with some exceptions. Copyright laws are somewhat nuanced. But essentially, you cannot use a copyrighted song in your own projects if you intend to make money off of it. Unless you pay for the rights.

So things like movies or games or monetized youtube videos would have restrictions on what music they can use. Some songs are free, though.

[ saying youtube to this man feels like a crime. ]

[obdure]

[ ......................... ]

So it's about whether the project profits.

[ ignore EVERYTHING ELSE ]

[holyspirits]

Essentially, yes.

[obdure]

Do you... Do all of that stuff that you just talked about?

[ THE YOUTUBE? ]

[holyspirits]

No, I don't really sample music or do remixes. I just make original stuff. And I don't post it anywhere.

It's just to pass the time.

[obdure]

It's good to have a hobby... Do you still pursue it here?

[holyspirits]

I haven't had as much time for it since we're watching over all of you. And the... situation, and all.

But I don't mind. I'd rather be doing something more useful with my time, anyway.

[obdure]

... Like opening presents.

[ Just a small jab. ]

As long as you are feeling comfortable, but of course productive.

[holyspirits]

This still falls under the watching over you umbrella.

[ >:o ]

[obdure]

I think I am one of the few who don't misbehave.

[ :/ ]

[holyspirits]

You don't have to misbehave to be observed. We still want to know what you're doing, how you're feeling, if you're having fun...

[obdure]

And? What's the consensus?

[ He is curious about how everyone is generally feeling and who best to ask than moderators. ]

[holyspirits]

I think that people are enjoying the sights to see. But understandably still distraught over the unexpected events that have occurred.

And a bit bothered by the various quirks of adapting to Heaven.

[obdure]

[ ... ]

There's so much technology.

[ Yes, his complaint. ]

[holyspirits]

There's no undoing progress.

[ hehe. ]

I'm sure it feels near ancient for some people.

[obdure]

You three couldn't have considered how we'd all acclimate at least...

[ Man. ]

Any progress on the strange anomalies?

[ execution, lost souls... etc. ]
