《Music System》Chapter 13
Advertisement
NorseGod had replied to Saturn only a day after Saturn had contacted him. His reply read.
{ Hello Saturn, if we collaborate then we can go about it a variety of ways. One way would be for us to meet up personally. The way I think we should do it, which just so happens to be the most common way to collab would be to each record us doing something and we can put our recordings together. I say that we should do something called shred wars. Shred Wars is where we each four shreds and we interchange them on the video. The viewers decide who won. If you are interested then please contact me on my personal email. **************. }
( Shred Wars are a real thing on youtube, ya'll should check them out for a better understanding. Jared Dines on youtube is the only person I actually know of that does it. )
After that Saturn and NorseGod whose real name was Bassi Metal. It seemed he was from Europe, mainly the North Germanic countries. He had practiced his guitar for years and had come to America to pursue a carrier. When he got to America he realized the futility of trying to pursue a carrier in anything other than pop or rap. So he joined the movement of trying to promote other genres of music. After years he somehow gained a large following on WeStream, and was one of the leaders in getting Metal music more popular.
Saturn and Bassi had chatted back and forth for around one month, during that time Saturn splurged and bought himself a pretty decent camera. He had also cheated a little and preplanned what he was going to be playing in his collab with Bassi. After that he was ready.
For his part of the video Saturn went to Luther's store where there was always open recording booth. He set up his camera on a tripod with the aid of Luther. He then sat on the stool and started shredding.
For his first part Saturn performed a really technical piece, by finger tapping. He used that technique in place of a pick because it added a sense of skill.
For his second one Saturn brought out his pick and and did a more traditional style of shredding. His second part sounded like something you would hear as a solo in a metal song.
For the last two parts Saturn did a mix of the first two. In all honesty he really killed it and all four of his parts sounded like they could be in a professional song. He then sent his four parts to Bassi.
After that the two recorded a back and forth similar to the second collab that Bassi had done. This was for Saturn's channel. Originally they were just going to do two Shred Wars, but Saturn really liked the back and forth video and requested doing one for his channel. Bassi was more than happy comply since he also enjoyed making the first video.
All in all it took the two over a month to work out the collaboration, but only a single day to record both the videos. It would of been a lot quicker if they could of recorded Saturn's video in person. But it only took a couple extra hours to do the video.
They then uploaded the videos at the same time, least they tried to, but Saturn took to long trying to get himself in the video.
He had never actually had himself in one of his videos and it turned out being harder than he thought getting himself in the video. He did something simple for his part of the video.

" Yo guys, Saturn here, I know this is my first time being in one of my videos, but this video is pretty special so I figured I should do something different. The reason this video is special is because it is the first video that is more than just a song. The video is a shred wars collaboration between me and a bigger channel called NorseGod. If ya'll haven't heard of him you should definitely check him out because he is really talented with great music. Anyway I'll stop being long winded and let ya'll get to the video. "
After that the video did a seamless transition. At least it was seamless by Saturn's standards. If any professional editors had watched his video they would cringed.
It took only a single day for Saturn's subscribers to increase all the way up to a whopping 30,000. It seemed that many of Bassi's subs are part of the movement and were extremely loyal. They would support all talented musicians not part of the three core genres. Which it should be said that they discriminated against musicians part of the three core genres, but they wouldn't give unconditional support.
Two days after he uploaded the video Saturn went into work. When he went into the break room to relax before his shift started Saturn was jumped by a certain young beauty.
" OH MY GOD SATURN YOU WERE SO COOL IN THOSE VIDEOS! You looked so handsome when concentrating. "
It should be mentioned that Saturn was originally a handsome kid, but years of being in Juvy and prison had made him pale and malnourished. So when he got out he wasn't at his full potential. But once he was let out he became a darker tan and filled out with more protein. So many would now see Saturn as a buff handsome man with a cold confident aura. And when he was concentrating on playing guitar everything combined to make women swoon.
Samantha especially seemed to find Saturn handsome and attractive.
" Hehe thanks Sam, I am taking my mom and Luther out to dinner, you should join us. "
" Really? Then thanks, it better be somewhere nice because I will be dressing up. "
" Ooo, then I am definitely looking forward to that. "
After that Saturn and Sam went to work. Saturn to his gazebo and Samantha to Queen's Castle where she had started working. She was very happy in the store since she was among many young women who would rather work than complain. She was like a fish in water in the store.
The work day was pretty normal for Saturn, he did play the third movement Moonlight Sonata at the request of some fans. Usually he wouldn't take requests, but he was in a good mood.
At the end of the day he had gotten a little over five hundred dollars which simply added to Saturn's good mood. After that he went to a suit store where he had a casual suit that he thought he looked amazing in, he had had it made for dinner situations and the like. He met up with Samantha and told her where the restaurant was and what time she should get there.
After that he drove home and met up with his mom who was just getting home from work.
" Hey mom. "
" Hey babe. "
She clearly sounded tired.
" Work was long I take it. "
" Yeah, customers just wouldn't stop coming and the boss kept making me take orders for some reason. It just took to long. "

Saturn was of course worried and it could be seen on his face and by the tone of his voice.
" If you want we can go to dinner another day. "
" Hell no, a nice dinner with you is exactly what I need. By the way I am driving with you because I am going to get my drink on. "
" That works. Oh by the way, I invited Samantha along with Luther, though you already knew he was coming right? "
" Yeah I knew, this means I can't drink to much now. "
Saturn was confused.
" Why can't you drink now? We're only going out to dinner. "
" Yeah, but you're bringing your girlfriend now and I want to make a good first impression. "
" Mom we aren't dating. Why does everybody think that? "
" Son, a mom can tell . . . . . . It also helps that you only talk about work, music, and her and you only smile when talking about her. It's only a matter of time until you seal the deal. Honestly I wish you would hurry it up, it can't be healthy for a guy to go so long without " release ". "
" What the hell mom? "
" Oh shut up, I changed you and we bathed together until you were seven. Besides it isn't anything I don't know. "
Saturn just ran to his room like a pre-teen, Amelia just smiled and shook her head.
A few hours later at 9 o'clock p.m. one could find a handsomely dressed Saturn helping his mother into the front seat of his tahoe. Amelia could be seen wearing a long black dress with roses in a vine down the side of her leg. It was simple but it added a sense of a cold beauty to the beautiful woman.
Saturn's suit was the usual black jacket, shoes, and pants while his shirt was a dark wine red. He had it split a little to give him an intimidating look that would drive off any guys hitting on his mom or Samantha. Originally Saturn was going to wear it how one should wear it, but Amelia forced him to have it open. After that Saturn and his mom drove into town where the restaurant was.
Amelia turned on Saturn's music including songs that he had recorded over the month he was discussing with Bassi. He decided that he would only upload songs a couple times a month to his WeStream channel.
It was a happy thirty minute drive to the restaurant and when they pulled in he went up to the valet. He walked up to the woman at the counter.
" Reservation for Emerson. "
" Right this way sir. "
" By the way there will be two more people coming around. "
" Yes sir. "
Once he reached the chair table to both Luther and Samantha saying.
' My mom and I are here, when you get here just say reservation for Emerson. '
Neither Samantha or Luther responded, clearly they were responsible drivers. That really surprised Saturn when it came to Sam.
After about ten minutes both Sam and Luther had shown up. Luther wearing a pretty average suit that fit him perfectly. Samantha however was absolutely stunning.
She was wearing a flowing dark blue dress that ended at her knees on one side and mid calf on the other. Her shoulders were covered with a blue that matched her dress, the cloth also covered part of her triceps and biceps. She was wearing black flat shoes. Her dress hugged her form, despite being flowery like a rose. Her tan skin didn't have any make up and it didn't need it. It was truly hard to put her beauty in words. ( It's really easy for the author to be so lazy. )
Saturn quickly closed his mouth and wiped his surprise of his face, not before Samantha, Amelia, and Luther noticed it though. All three of them smirked at his expense. Saturn hadn't noticed their smirks though and stood up to pull Sam's chair out for her.
Samantha happily sat down not until she gave Saturn a flirty wink though.
" So has anybody ordered yet? "
" Nope, we've been waiting on you ya slow poke. "
" Well it isn't easy to look this gorgeous. "
" Alright alright curb your arrogance Sam. Meet my mom and Luther, Luther is the one who helped you get the job at Queen's Castle. "
Samantha got really excited and shook the old man's hand. Luther smiled in a perverted fashion while stealing quick glances at Sam's cleavage. It seemed despite their age no guy could resist a pretty young girl, not even an old army man.
Sam then turned to Amelia who had been sizing the younger girl up.
" Hello Ms. Emerson I am Samantha, I am a good friend of your son's. "
" Yeah I know you, Saturn never shuts up about you. "
" Yoyoyooo, talk about something that won't embarrass me. "
Seeing Saturn slightly flustered Luther chimed in.
" Please don't, I want to see this kid do something other than scowl. "
" Come on not you two Luther, guy's gotta stick together. "
" Not when one guy wants to see the other embarrassed. "
" Forget all of you. "
The two girls were laughing by that point while Luther and Saturn were simply smiling. All four talked for hours during and after dinner. They actually stuck around so long that the restaurant closed and kicked them out.
" Anyway, I'll see you three later, I'm sure my bratty kids are worried. "
" See you Luther, be careful on the way home. "
" See you old man, I'll probably have some songs for us to record soon. "
" See ya Luther. "
With that Luther walked back to his car which was a white Crown Victoria. According to what Luther had said earlier in the evening it was a refurbished cop car.
Once Luther left it was just Saturn, Amelia, and Samantha left. Even the workers were gone.
" Alright you two I'm heading back. Amelia I'll make sure to go to you get my hair cut. "
" I just hope I don't mess up your pretty little head, see ya hun. "
Once Amelia said that she gave a look to Saturn.
" What? "
" Don't what your mother, I know exactly what you're thinking. You go with her I can drive myself home. And don't come up with any excuses you both have the day off tomorrow so now is the perfect time. "
Saturn looked at his mom then gave her a hug and a kiss.
" By love you, be careful. "
After that Saturn chased after Samantha who had just sat into her car under the watchful eye of his mother.
Saturn ran right up to the car and tapped on Samantha's window. She rolled it down.
" What's up? "
" Mind if I come with you, mom kicked me out for the night. "
" You can come on one condition. You have to accept me as your girlfriend. "
" Hehe, that was the plan . . . . babe. "
Samantha gained a big ol' grin at that.
" Then hop in. "
After that the two went to Samantha's apartment, they didn't do anything except cuddle and watch a movie. Saturn had tried hiding his hard on, but it was useless.

Hero
Kuren is just your average boy. He's just been asleep for one thousand years. Heroes and grand epics. Kuren doesn't have the time to think about things like that, nor does he really care. Join Kuren as he wanders the fantasy land of Alurca in search of his lost memories and the reasons behind his lengthy slumber. This is sort of a reboot of Anomaly, the first novel I tried to write. I gave up Anomaly after going to college. I thought about going back to it, but... when I look at it now, it's not very good. It was very edgy and not much substance behind that edge. The story wasn't quite going anywhere since I hadn't given the main character a goal. I had planned out a story, but I forgot to to plan out the details between the beginning and end. So this one's for real. Hopefully you won't be disappointed.

The Tears of Kas̆dael
It was just supposed to be a game. A really, really great game, yes - but a game. Instead, Jasper got his heart ripped out by a brooding goddess and awoke to find himself in another world. No weapons, no skills. Naked. Trapped in a world full of ancient horrors, where gods and monsters still roam the earth, Jasper is forced to adapt quickly or die - and he's not ready to die. Good thing he's a mage. This is a high-fantasy novel with light LitRPG elements. It's not super-crunchy, but the system is an important part of the story. There is some light cursing and gore, but this is not a Grimdark novel. There will also be no harem. The current schedule is chapters on M-W-F of around 2000-2500 words, as well as occasional bonus chapters that provide background or insights into side characters. This is my first real attempt at writing a full novel, but the story is based on a world that I've been creating and re-creating since I was a child. I have an extensive "history" and religion, and even a semi-cohesive language system worked out, which will hopefully slowly shine through as the story progresses. I want to avoid having too many info-dumps, so I may from time to time post a bonus lore chapter that will explain some of the background for any who are interested.
