Warnings: Heavy yaoi, definite imagery! ^_~
Pairing: Taito. Sort of. Just read it!
Archive: ML's, Dana, anyone else let me know.
Disclaimer: I don't own Digimon. If I did, Saban would find it impossible to edit out all the yaoi-ish
stuff! ^_~
Dedication: To Kupoke, who seems to be mad at me for continuously killing the characters. ^_~
See, I can write something happy! ^_^

"Hey, Yamato, whatcha up to?" Taichi wondered idly, sidling up to Yamato.
Yamato's eyebrow twitched. "Playing the harmonica, what does it sound like I'm doing?" he said.
"Oh, that was you? I thought it was a sick elephant!" Taichi teased.
"Ha ha, very funny," Yamato said, going back to his playing.
"..."
"Taichi, would you please stop poking me?"
"Yama, will you teach me to play?" Taichi gave him the big puppy dog eyes.
"...Just how bored are you, Taichi?" Yamato questioned, sweatdropping.
"Please, Yama?" "...Oh, all right."
"Yay!" Taichi said, glomping Yamato and seettling down beside him.
"OK," Yamato said, pointing to the top of his harmonica. "You see the letter here at the end?"
Taichi nodded. "That's your key. This one is a C key. The numbers by your holes are labeling
them."
"OK..." Taichi said.
"Now, there are two types of notes- the blow notes and the draw notes," Yamato continued.
"'Blow' is kinda the polite term for suck."
*Ehhh?* Taichi thought. *Must not get nosebleed... mustnotgetnosebleed....*
"Taichi? Are you listening to me? Look, if you don't want to learn..."
"I want to learn, I want to learn!" Taichi said hastily, pinching the bridge of his nose.
"Good," Yamato said. "Here, just try blowing in and out on this," he said, handing Taichi the
harmonica. "Just fiddle with it a little, and then I'll explain the notation." He pulled a piece of paper
and a pencil from his pocket and began scribbling something.
*Yamato's lips have been on this harmonica,* Taichi thought dizzily, trying not to pass out. He put
the intrument to his own lips and tried playing it like Yamato had suggested.
"OK," Yamato said a minute later. "I wrote out 'When the Saints Go Marching In', which is a
fairly easy piece. See, the notes are numbered with the hole number that's written on the top. If
they're circled, they're draw notes, and if they're not, they're blow. And the dots mean that you do
something called tonguing, where you-"
A thump from next to him made Yamato turn to look at Taichi, who was comatose on the ground,
blood running freely from his nose.
"Taichi? What on earth? Oh, why do I even bother?"
