Beginning Notes: Drabble 3 of 3 25/08/14
Thank you badly-knitted for catching my spelling mistake.
Here is something I want to share, considering the title of this drabble, it seems oddly appropriate. Go listen to Cam Clarke's version of "Son Of A Preacher Man", if Cam Clarke was the voice of your childhood like he was with mine, than this song will spin it on its head (in a good way).

T: "I figured it out!"
J: "Figured what out?"
T: "This statue is some sort of MP3 player. A storage device for songs converted into digital information."
O: "We know what MP3s are." *sidelong glance at Gwen* "Well at least most of us."
T: "Now, if there was someway to make it play."
I: "Tosh, would any of these help." *places cardboard box beside Tosh*
T: "What are these?"
I: "Future and alien universal cords and plugs I scavenged from Torchwood One."
T: "I might be able to hook it up to a computer, here's hoping that there is a compatible OS."
Sometime Later
T: "I'm ready to play it. Anyone want to hear what type of music these people listened to?"
*Strange sounds emerge from weird statue*
G: "This is awful."
J: "This just sounds like noise."
O: "Are these people deaf!?"
I: "It's . . . strangely canorous."
~End
Word: Canorous
ca - no - rous (adjective) : melodious; musical
End Notes: The 'strange statue' is actually a replica of the god Apollo from the religion of "The Restoration Temple' (which is a neo-pagan church), from their classical cyberpunk period.
