[ shiro is… not musically inclined. guqin is a word he is fairly certain he is hearing for the first time in his life. which is… not unusual. he’s used to it. used to space escapades that land him in conversations with alien species that have him asking for clarification on at least half the vocab words.

except, wangily isn’t an alien.

so yeah. shiro kind of feels like an idiot. cool. luckily! -- a picture is attached. so it’s-- what? some sort of lap guitar?

he’s. not. musically. inclined. forgive him. ] I can’t say I’ve ever seen, let alone heard a-- guqin before. [ good-natured smile--per usual. ] It’s pretty though. [ is that a thing? do people compliment the look of an instrument? ] How long have you been playing it?
