Voice - ♩ ♫ ♫ ♬♫♩ - Network's new feature

[momsboy]

[ There's silence for a seconds before a small click is heard and then; ]

Caaan.....anybody...find meeeeeEEEE...somebody TOOOO looOOOooove...

[ The man.

The myth.

The legend.

Freddy Mercury himself.

Has Freddy Mercury arrived in Asgard, one might wonder? Wouldn't that be great? Sadly, that isn't the case and if anybody bothers to check, they will see that this network post lists Peter Quill as the author.

The Guardian waits until the music ends, hoping that anyone listening is enjoying the song for what it is: a gift. Once the beat dies down, there's another silence and Peter's voice speaks up. ]

You can thank the Goddess Skadi and the God Tyr for that. As for my own contribution, there's now a list of 300 songs available on the network for you to listen and share. The Network's new playlist should be available in all devices...ah, right about now.

If you all want to add more songs, there's a trick to it. They need to be pulled out of your memories and then added to the network; and you need to contact Skadi or Tyr for that. It's a painless process but it takes some time and might have some...harmless side effects. Things like getting a song stuck in your head or feeling lighthearted and sleepy.

[ Peter's voice lost a little of his previous cheerfulness at that final explanation. Getting the songs out of his memories had been a long and sometimes really stressful process due to his wariness when it comes to gods getting into his head. Hopefully, others won't have that problem and besides, the Gods also have a better idea of what are they doing. The hazards of being the first test subject. ]

Anyway! Have fun everyone, feel free to ask me questions. And now here's one last song for my best girl.

[ Which is Gamora, even if he doesn't specify it. There's another click and the song Ain't no mountain high enough starts playing. If one pays attention, Peter can be heard humming along with it in the background. ]

- ♩ ♫ ♫ ♬♫♩ -

[ ooc: Here's a first list of the songs available from Peter's canon. Feel free to add any new songs to the list by leaving an ooc message to that post, thanks! The songs are also super quality because Skadi is the best.

Feel free to use this to talk to Peter, for a general chat among the chars, or maybe to try the different songs that can now be played on the network. Have fun. ]

[A couple of hours after this post first shows up:]

What's a Piña Colada, and is it really so good that it deserved a whole song?

[video]

[momsboy]

I can't believe I forgot to mention that drink when we first talked! It's so good.

It's a sweet cocktail! You need rum, coconut milk and pineapple juice to make it and it tastes like heaven. Do you know how to prepare rum, by any chance?

[viciousmaukery]

Nope! Usually, I just bought it. [Wait, hang on—] Coconut milk? I've never been near the ocean but I'm pretty sure they're just full of water. Unless this is one of those different-worlds-different-strokes things.

And also, does it really deserve a whole song? I mean, if you just wanted to write about escaping your dull life, you don't need the subtitle.

[momsboy]

You don't have coconuts where you are from? It's a round fruit with a hard shell. On the inside, the walls are covered by jelly-like flesh and filled with a sweet liquid. We call it coconut milk but it's just water, really.

You say that because you have never tried a Piña Colada. That just is the icing on the cake when you are having a good time.

[viciousmaukery]

We have coconuts where I’m from! They’re exactly like you said. [There’s a light huff of laughter.] I’ve just never tried them.

Now I really want to try it. Icing doesn’t usually deserve to be immortalized in song.

[momsboy]

In that case, sorry I wasn't trying to give you a lecture. Since we're all from different worlds, we don't always have the same things and I am used to explaining.

You should if you have the chance. Of course any drink is the best drink if you're in good company.

[viciousmaukery]

No, it’s fine. It’s nice of you to consider just how many worlds people have been dragged from.

What’s the best drink to have in company, in your opinion? Not piña colada, that’s just cheating.

[momsboy]

I travel around space so I am used to interacting with people from all sort of cultures. Some things are universal, like alcohol, others not so much.

Well that's easy enough to answer. Red wine, of course.

[viciousmaukery]

Smart answer. I usually just go for whatever's on tap, but I've always thought ale tasted better when you were with company.

Anything else that's not so universal, besides coconuts?

[momsboy]

Thanks, I do have my moments. Yep. Is ale your favorite drink then?

[ Uhm...talking trees, apparently. Groot is special even for the Galaxy's standards. ]
