《Music System》Chapter 21
Advertisement
Saturn was sitting on the couch in his mother's living room after he finished filming a new workout video. He was watching the news about how a young man had been out with four of his friends and they ended up killing some guy who bumped into them. None of them were sent to jail though because their lawyer protected them on the grounds of those four being rich and not knowing it was wrong. Saturn couldn't help but shake his head and change the channel. Eventually he just went to his room and went to sleep.
When he woke up Saturn did his usual workout of 250 push-ups, 250 sit-ups, 300 squats, and a 4 mile run. He had increased his work outs by quite a bit since he felt he had no longer been progressing. He had also convinced his mother to start working out, she mainly did yoga with Sam though.
Saturn had recently changed up the path he ran. It used to be he would run along the road in front of his house, but he had changed it up to go into the forest behind his mother's house. The path was very pretty, scenic, and Saturn enjoyed watching some of the woodland creatures. His favorite animal to observe were deer. There was just something about them that Saturn found majestic and almost regal. It was as though the deer had a hidden spirituality that only mother earth knew about. The other animal that Saturn quite enjoyed watching was a bird, probably a falcon or something, Saturn didn't know. He only knew that they were birds of prey and they were gorgeous. There was a hill near Amelia's house and Saturn really enjoyed going up there and simply watching the dozen or so birds fly around. ( I know little about falcons so please don't rip me in he comments. )
After Saturn returned from his four hour run he grabbed his laptop and started browsing WeStream, mainly checking out various updates from fellow music Streamers. NorseGod had released a new song and a few of the other people he was subscribed to had uploaded a video based around a new trend that had been going around in the community. The trend was about trying to create a song in a certain amount of minutes, Saturn had already made plans to try the trend out. Saturn also checked out how many subs he had, 80,000, he was considered a rising star among the music streaming community.

A few minutes later Saturn grabbed his guitar and drove to the mall. When he reached there he went by Queen's Castle to talk to Sam for a few minutes. Sam was surprisingly professional.
" Hello sir, how may I help you today? "
Saturn decided to play along.
" Yeah I am wanting to but my girlfriend some lingerie, she's getting a bit fatter recently so I wanted to get her something that would fit. "
Samantha of course knew he was joking as she had done quite a bit to maintain a slim and athletic physique for herself. That was despite Saturn asking her to let loose a little and put on a few pounds. He had made the suggestion as he felt bad for the young girl who didn't get to eat her favorite foods over some silly diet.
" Then follow me sir. "
Sam then led Saturn to the plus sized area in the store.
" Alright, alright, settle down. How has your day been? "
" Pretty good, why did you come by? "
" Can't I want to see my lovely girlfriend in her uniform? "
The uniforms for Queen's Castle were pretty cute, as one would expect from a famous clothing store. The outfits were fancy dresses that looked like something a queen would of worn, to a layman at least. Real historians would know that the dresses weren't at all realistic, but the were cool, and that was what the owners of Queen's Castle wanted.
" Most guys I could believe doing that, but not you you freaking music freak. "
" Ouch, that hurts babe, though I am happy to know the you know me so well. I do actually want to record. "
" Freaking knew it. Anyway get going, if you are fast enough we can eat dinner together. "
" Perfect, should only take me an hour or two, when do you get off work? "
" I finish my shift in thirty minutes. "
" Then I'll be quick. See ya babe. "
As he was leaving a few of the other female worker walked up to Sam.

" Was that the boyfriend you are always showing us? I thought he was fake. "
" Me too. "
" Well get rekt girls, because he is mine. "
After that the three conversed for a few minutes before getting back to work. During that time Saturn had reached Luther's and already had the booth set up. He asked Luther if he wanted to be in the video, but the old fellow declined.
" Alright guys I am going to be joining in on the little trend going around recently about making a song in yadda yadda minutes. Mine will be . . . Twenty five minutes. I would try singing, but that often takes quite a while so this will be a purely instrumental video. If you want to skip there will be a time stamp up on screen now that will take you straight to the song. "
" Oh I should mention that I am using a bass, and to be honest I don't have a lot of experience with bass guitars out of what I record, so please give me some lee-way with that. "
( So I was planning on putting a Les Claypool song here, but I changed my mind. )
Saturn then started playing the basic looking bass in his hands. He first started off playing the beginning of Moonlight sonata but a minute and some in he changed it up. He picked up the speed and playing difficulty. About another minute later he changed it up again. Saturn ended up changing the song a few different times more before he stopped. ( If ya'll want to check the song out check out the playlist. )
" Alright guys, now I am going to get into the editing and make everything sound nice and clean. I am sure a lot of you are going to accuse me of pre planning, but I ask you to believe that I didn't. Honestly though it doesn't matter. "
Saturn then went in on making the bass clear sounding. No distortion, no echo, etc.
" Alright guy's, that was . . . 17 minutes, nice. That means I exceeded expectations, and I have enough time to go on a date with my girlfriend. "
After that Saturn started uploading the video and left the booth. He put the laptop in a book bag and went to find Luther so that he could.
" Yo Luther, I'm done for the day, so do what you want with it. "
" Chill out with that man, you have been renting the thing for a month. "
" Alright. So what are your plans for the rest of the day? "
" ' Sigh ', I don't know, probably going to have dinner with the kids. My daughter is having her new boyfriend over. I think I'll enjoy scaring the hell out of him. "
" HAHAHA, go for it bro. "
" Hehehe, probably the only thing enjoyable about my daughter bringing boys over is screwing with them. It's fucking hilarious. "
" I bet. "
The young man and old man talked back and forth for a few minutes before Sam showed up.
" Hey Luther. "
" What's up girly? "
" Just got off work, me and Saturn were about to go out to dinner. Want to join. "
" Nnooo, you two enjoy yourselves. Besides I already have plans. "
" Alright then make sure you enjoy yourself. Let's go Saturn. "
" See ya Luther, enjoy tonight. "
" You know I will. "
Saturn and Sam then left and went to dinner, they ate at a Vietnamese restraunt. Saturn got meatballs and chicken legs. Sam got some odd noodle dish.
They then left, Saturn to his mom's house, Samantha to her own house.
