Wind
Hippolyta and Sev were heading to the Hall to have lunch with the Sly family.
"Hippolyta, honey, tell me about your morning. Have you talked to Slughorn?"
"Yes of course."
"What did he said?"
"That I can enroll in all the electives I want, he has already scheduled me for September 2nd, when I have decided," the girl replied. "And that if I need it, they will give me a Time Turner."
"Great."
"I think I'm going to enroll in many even if I don't get them later, precisely so that they can give me the Time-Turner, and be able to use it whenever I want to be able to do all the things I want to do."
Sly temper, cheating, Sev thought. Booff… to discourage her.
"No, Hippolyta, not that, don't even think about it. The Time Turner is very bad for your health. If they give you a Time Turner you should only use it to go to classes."
"But you have one and you use it whenever you want…"
Bad example. "It's not like that, honey. I use it only for obligations and as little as I can. I didn't last a month at that pace, I had thirty-four hour days, eating and sleeping in any way, I almost fell ill. You have to be very careful with the Time Turner. If they give you one, I will control it for you, I will have it and I will only leave it with you when you need it for classes. If you organize yourself there is time for everything."
"Ugh… Prince…" pleadingly.
Sev held back his laughter. She has already been planning everything in the morning, I can't leave her alone for a while. But I'm not angry with her for this, less than two months ago I had the same illusion, I believed that the Time-Turner was the panacea. "Hippolyta, please don't give me problems, the problems with you never end, I don't have a single calm day," threatening, but feigned.
"You're right, you're right. I'll listen to you, Prince, you know more about those things than I do."
I already have her under control. "That is, my love, that's how I like it. Tell me what else you've done."
"We played catch," she responded.
"Did you have a good time?"
"Yes a lot. When it was my turn I caught them all right away, and when it was the others' turn it was very difficult for them to catch me."
"And have you gotten very tired?" Sev asked.
"No, Prince, because when I tired I would rest for a while under the beech tree."
"And that's when you've been planning the Time-Turner thing."
"That is."
"Daydreaming," he deduced.
"Yeah."
"Are you going to take a nap?"
"I don't know. Whatever I want after lunch," Hippolyta responded.
"My room is now free. You can take it in my room or we can go to the Room of Requirement house."
"To the Room house, to the Room house…"
"We'll have to walk a bit, huh?" Sev warned. "Back and forth, and anyway we're going to go at seven with everyone."
"And we can't ask for a bedroom in the Room without having to walk?"
She's already hooked on the Room. "Of course, too. Do you want us to do that?"
"Yes, please," she responded.
"Then let's go to the Room to take a nap. I think I'll also sleep for a little while, so I'm cooler for the night. We bring my alarm clock, then we still have to Bond and maybe meet with Cecile to try out the instruments. When she arrives at the Great Hall we'll ask her if she can, I think she will be able to."
They were already sitting down.
"What about the girl that I can't know who she is?" she asked him very quietly. "You ran away at breakfast."
"Yes, honey, because with that ancient magic you can know where a person is and if they are in danger. And she was, I had to run to help her."
"But nothing bad has happened to her, right?"
"No, honey, no. The danger is over," he responded.
"Have you tried your Patronus with her?"
"Yes, I have tried it."
"And have they done things like with mine?" asked the girl.
"Yes, Hippolyta, they have done them. I love her too."
"Ugh... but you're not going to see her all summer," sad.
"No, I'm not going to see her," Sev confirmed.
"I know why you're not going to see her."
She's already guessed everything, incredible, I'm sure she's been thinking about it too. "Let's see, why?"
"For the same reason we can't see Maida," she replied. "Because her family is from the other side."
"You already know who she is, don't you?"
"Yes, Parkinson, your yearmate, Heather and Fiona's roommate. She's on our side, isn't she? She's another spy, like Sirius."
"How smart you are, Hippolyta."
"Is she also an occlumant and legeremant?"
"She is."
"Wow... we have a good spy on the other side," the girl was happy. "What NEWT is she going to take?"
"She's going to take two. Defense and Herbology."
"Wooow... Defense, but she can't train with the Army."
"But nothing happens, I already train her like I train you, and in addition, I teach her all the ancient magic," he explained. "I will teach her to become invisible, Animagus, everything necessary for her to be the best spy."
"Of course... what a good plan. I also have to occlude all this, of course."
"Of course, and don't talk about it with anyone in the family. Only Deborah and Sirius know."
"Of course, of course. Because it is very dangerous for people to know," Hippolyta deduced. "If someone spill the beans and they catch her being on the other side camouflaged, they can kill her right away. It is very dangerous to be a spy."
"That is, honey. And it's also dangerous for the old man to discover her, because he would try to make her a double agent."
"What is double agent?"
"A spy who spies on both sides at the same time, that both sides believe that they belongs to them," Sev explained.
"I don't understand, Prince."
"It's very easy. If she also trained with the Army and it was known that she was our friend, those on Voldemort's side would find out, and when she tried to belong to their side, she would have to convince them that she is on their side by also snitching on us, but with lies."
"Ugh… and it would be very easy for them to discover her," she deduced.
"Of course honey. Being a double agent is much more dangerous than being a spy."
"I want to be her friend, Prince. Will I be able to bond with her for a chat too?"
"Sure, honey, but next year, this year we don't have time," he objected.
"And I also want to train with her. You could teach us both at the same time to become invisible, and Sirius too, for when the three of us go to the Death Eaters' houses. If they are closed, she will open them for us, we will catch them sleeping."
Sev laughed. She's always hatching plans, she's going to get along great with Lauren. The Trio is going to be a Quartet, a new lucky number. "Very good idea, Hippolyta."
"But we will not kill them sleeping, we will wake them up so that they understand clearly what we are going to do to them, that they suffer, that they suffer."
They both laughed, wickedly. How bad she is, how I like it. "That is, that is. Come on, let's have lunch in peace, it's getting cold," he said.
When Cecile arrived, Sev and Deborah bonded with her. "Sirius results, Cecile?" he asked her.
"Ninety-five percent for two hours."
"Booff… by how little."
"Yeah. He has not recovered his memories," said the Gryff. "I have warded the Pensieve with them inside."
"Ugh… but, how did you do that? They can become diluted if they spend too much time there."
"Two hours have already passed, Sev, nothing is going to happen for half an hour more. We'll have a quick lunch and return directly from the Great Hall."
"Ugh… I hope we haven't messed up Sirius," said Sev.
"It takes him a long time to extract his thoughts, he has many compromised memories."
"Yeah. Now I'm going to be worried that nothing happens to him."
"Like he worried about you when he found out that you were going to learn to Obliviate with Remus," she said.
"Well yes. By the way, congratulate him for me, he is an ace."
"He is very happy, very proud."
"I'm also about him," he said.
"Tell him yourself."
"Tonight I'm telling him, I'm going to have a busy lunch. Unbond, Deborah, I have to talk about something else with Cecile."
Deborah unbonded.
"What do you want, honey?" Cecile asked him.
"When you finish with Sirius, come to the Room of Requirement, to the piano classroom."
"I was already thinking of doing it, I was going to demand the singing classroom so that the scores for Hippolyta could appear."
"Of course, I had forgotten. Last night I was playing with her and now she not only wants to sing, but also play another instrument, small and easy, that she can take home in her trunk on holidays, with which she can rehearse with the Muffliato in the dungeons and that combines well with the piano," explained Sev.
"String or wind?"
"Boof… I don't know. Small and easy."
"The smallest string is the violin, but it is not easy at all," Cecile explained. "It can take months before a violin sounds good to you. A shame, because there are many, many works for violin and piano."
"Yeah."
"Also, the case is quite big."
"Oh… what a shame," he lamented.
"The wind ones are easier, but they have less repertoire."
"It doesn't matter, we will make our own versions of modern songs."
"Sure. Furthermore, with the winds you can also improvise, like in jazz," she explained. "Do you know what improvising is?"
"Yes, Lily's father explained it to me. The harmony is fixed and whoever plays above does what they want."
"Sure. On the piano it is more difficult because you yourself have to maintain the harmony and the improvised melody, but with a wind it is very easy."
"Great, I think she'll love that," Sev was happy.
"Then I will tell you which are the smallest winds, they do not coincide with the easiest ones."
"Oh…"
"The smallest ones are the flute and the oboe," said Cecile.
"Yeah."
"Oboe is much more difficult than flute, in addition, the case where the flute is kept is very small, it is perfect to carry it in the trunk or anywhere, it weighs nothing."
"Okay."
"Then, in size, would come the clarinet, the soprano saxophone and the trumpet, easier," she continued. "The case of the clarinet and the saxophone is practically like that of the oboe, the one for the trumpet is larger, it would already take up a lot of space in the trunk. And all three are instruments that have a lot of jazz repertoire."
"Okay."
"But a warning. A trumpet or a soprano sax would make a fuss even with the Muffliato, they sound very loud, and it would also bother her neighbors on holidays."
"Yeah. And which of the five that you have told me sound the most beautiful in your opinion?" he asked.
"The oboe and the flute, with a lot of difference, too. The sound of the oboe is beautiful, nasal. And the one of the flute, very clean, ethereal."
"Oh…"
"The flute is used a lot in jazz and jazz derivatives, Latin, Cuban and Brazilian music," the Gryff explained. "Not the oboe, there is no modern repertoire for the oboe, it does not lend itself as much to improvisation."
"Sure. I had thought about asking for a classroom with many instruments and trying them out. Do you know how they are played?"
"Having seen them on TV or at wind band concerts, but we can try."
"Well, think about the demand if you don't mind, Cecile, okay? We'll wait for you in the piano classroom when you finish with Sirius."
"Great, I'm looking forward to it."
"I have to leave you, Cecile. I have matters to resolve."
"Okay, honey, see you in the afternoon."
Sev resolved the matter with Dumbledore, with Deborah and Lauren bonded overhearing the conversation. He arranged to meet him for Wednesday morning when they were done with Minerva. The Headmaster did not tell him anything about his practical Defense exam, about Sly's victory in Quidditch, about what had happened on Saturday in the Great Hall, nor was he interested in Hippolyta's problem, and not only that, he reproached him for the party they had had at the Rave house and that he had to stop Filch from punishing him because he had caught them on Saturday night.
Lauren told him, "What we said. A pig, we must eliminate him."
After lunch he went with Hippolyta to the Room of Requirement, quite bitter.
"What's wrong with you, Prince?" she asked him.
"I spent almost the entire lunch chatting with the old man."
"Can you also talk to him with your mind?"
"Yes, but not with ancient magic, with another Mental Art called Projection," Sev explained. "You send your thoughts to someone and they listen to them."
"And what have you talked about, Prince? Tell me."
He told her, what they had talked about and what they hadn't.
"It's true that he's very bad," she said. "He only talks about the bad, not the good, and he doesn't even care about me."
"Of course, I think he was even angry that we won Quidditch."
"And I dedicated the Cup to the entire school. Now I'm sure he read me."
"Me too," he agreed.
"You should have taught me how to occlude before, Prince. If I had known that this existed, I would have asked you."
"Of course, I was very stupid. It doesn't matter, he'll never do it again."
"Have you read me again to find out if I'm still doing it right?" asked the girl.
"Yes, last night while you were falling asleep."
"And how about?"
"Perfect, honey."
They demanded a bedroom similar to the one Sev had slept in with Lauren last time.
"Excellent! A very big bed..." said the girl. "Like my parents'."
"We are going to have a lot left over, we already have plenty in mine in the dungeons."
They began to undress.
"Of course, because we sleep hugging. Are you better? Are you going to be able to sleep?" asked Hippolyta.
"Yes, honey, I think so. With your warmth yes."
"Now it's my turn to hug you, you get on your side and in your posture."
"Okay. But if you don't get cold, huh?" he said.
"I won't, I won't, this blanket is much better than the ones on our beds."
"True, and if necessary, I will Summon another one."
"And later we'll make the bed with magic, I'll teach you," she proposed.
"Wow... Do you know how to make the bed with magic?"
"Of course, I already told you this morning that my Mum teaches me to do everything around the house with magic. You'll see, it's very easy."
"Your Mum is an ace at Charms, huh?" Sev commented.
"Of course, it was what she studied, she was very good at it. Later she also taught her sister so that she would have time to do the housework even though she worked at St. Mungo's."
"Sure…"
"And here I am again telling you things that you already know," the girl deduced.
"True, true, but I like to talk about those things with you, finding out by reading is not funny."
"Sure. But I prefer to talk about what I don't know. Have you talked to Cecile about the instruments? Can she come?"
"Yes, she's coming," he replied. When we wake up from our nap, we'll wait for her in the piano classroom."
"Good! Playing. Tell me what she told you."
Sev told her, they had finished undressing.
"Wait, don't go into bed yet," she asked.
"What do you want, Hippolyta?"
"Look at you and touch your back, which I couldn't do this morning."
"Come on, go ahead, but you're feeling cold."
"If it's not cold at all today, Prince."
She touched him, him sitting on the bed, her kneeling behind him, for a few minutes. "Prince, you are very, very hot."
"Thank you, Hippolyta."
"You think I've only seen my Dad, but I already told you that in the summer I go to the beach, and there the boys wear swimsuits, which is like the underwear you wear. And there are very few who are as hot as you."
I didn't read that, he thought. "Oh…"
"You didn't know that because I also occluded it. I occluded all those things."
"Oh, oh…"
"What you were saying before, if you knew everything it wouldn't be funny," said the girl. "I had already noticed in the pond, what do you think? That I'm stupid? That's why I wanted to kiss you. And I suggested we take a bath precisely to see you, to see if I liked you, and I chased you under the water to touch you."
"Oh, oh…"
"Of course, I occluded all that too, because I occluded everything about you."
"Sure."
"And that's why I wanted to do boyfriend things with you at the party, because I like you a lot," she confessed. "I'm not surprised that you drive the girls crazy."
"Sure."
"Come on, go into bed, to sleep. I'm still touching you while you're in bed."
They got in, Sev in his usual position, hugged by Hippolyta from behind. They took a nap until half past three, and when they woke up they gave each other a peck, number ten.
They Bonded as a Clanship, embracing each other, with the runic song, which despite not having it as a subject, Hippolyta learned immediately. She also has an ear for languages, she is extraordinary, he thought.
They dressed, made the bed with magic, tried out their new corporeal, the Bond they had just made. When they left, Cecile appeared.
"Little witch!" exclaimed Sev.
"Cecile!" Hippolyta exclaimed.
"Guys!" Cecile exclaimed.
They gave each other a three-way hug.
"Have you been waiting a long time?" Sev asked her.
"No, about twenty minutes," Cecile responded.
"We were a little late because we were Bonding."
"Sure…"
"We were very excited," he explained.
"Because you love each other a lot."
"That is."
"Shall we go with the instruments?" the Gryff asked.
"Let's go!" Hippolyta exclaimed."
"We are going to demand Introduction to Wind Musical Instruments Classroom, so all the instruments will appear and also the methods to learn, and you can now take them home in the summer, honey."
"Brilliant!"
They demanded, entered, a very large space, with chairs arranged in a semicircle, music stands in front of them, and on or next to each one, the case of a different instrument.
"Wooah! There is a lot!" Hippolyta exclaimed before the door closed.
"Of course, there are many wind instruments, honey, but if you want it small so you can keep it in the dungeons and carry it back and forth from home, you don't have many to choose from, you're already seeing that most cases are very large," Cecile explained. "Also, the bigger it is, the more difficult it is to make it sound, playing a wind instrument is also physical exercise, it is quite tiring."
"Then small, small, the smallest."
Cecile approached one of the first chairs. She opened a very small case and showed her the inside of it. "Look, this is the smallest one, it's the piccolo, but it's quite difficult to play, it requires a lot of effort and it's very sharp, it makes a lot of noise, you're not going to like it."
She closed it, put it back where it was and went to the adjacent chair, where there was another case, with the same shape but larger, she also opened it and showed it to her. "Better this one here, it's its older sister, the transverse flute. It's easier and sounds much nicer, and as you can see, the case is also quite small, it fits perfectly in your trunk."
"It is very pretty, silver in color. Is it silver?" asked the girl.
"No, honey, silver would be very expensive, but it is made of a very resistant material. The instruments are delicate but also very resistant."
"Why is it in three pieces? It's broken?"
"No, Hippolyta, it is disassembled, we have to assemble it. Do you see the piece that doesn't have keys? This is where you blow, as if you were blowing into the mouth of a bottle making it sound."
"Cool! I love it. Can I try?"
"Of course, take just that piece and try making it sound, see if you like the way it sounds."
Hippolyta removed the head of the transverse flute from its case. "How do I have to place it?" she asked.
"I'll put it on you, honey, wait until I leave the case on the chair." Cecile put down the case and placed the mouthpiece of the flute on Hippolyta's chin, below her lower lip. "Come, look, there is also a mirror, look at how you have it positioned."
They moved to the mirror.
"I already see it."
"Hold it."
Hippolyta did it.
"Now blow trying to make it sound, not in front, but downwards," the Gryff explained.
"Okay." She did it, it didn't sound. "It does not sound."
"Because you don't have it positioned correctly. Move it so that the hole is at a different angle, move it very slowly."
Hippolyta did it, inside and out, without stopping blowing. It finally sounded. "It sounded!"
"Very good. So this is how you have to place it, are you looking at yourself in the mirror?"
"Yeah."
"Then try several more times," Cecile encouraged her. "Don't get overwhelmed if it doesn't come out all the time, and don't blow for so long at a time, you can get dizzy."
"Okay."
Hippolyta tried it several times, it worked again on the third time. "On the third time, Prince! Luck luck!"
"Do you like the sound of it, honey?" he asked her.
"A lot. Do you like it? Will it sound pretty with the piano?"
"I love it, my love."
"Shall we assemble it, Cecile, so we can play notes?" asked the girl.
"No, honey, not today, don't be impatient," answered the eldest. "It's harder to make it play in its entirety, and besides, I don't know how to assemble it nor do I know the notes. Today, take the time to get an idea of what the instruments sound like and which one would be easier for you. This one is turning out to be very easy for you."
"Great, then I'll play a little more, to remember well how it sounds." She did it a bunch more times, until she managed to blow the head of the flute nine times.
Meanwhile, Cecile looked for and tried to assemble an oboe.
"That's it, nine times, good luck. Let's try another one," Hippolyta proposed.
"This is an oboe. I have tried to assemble it, because it sounds very different if you play only what makes it sound, which is this double reed, or the entire instrument," Cecile explained, "For the moment try making the reed sound."
"This one is also pretty, it's black with silver buttons, I like it a lot."
"Because it is made of wood," the Gryff told her.
"But that doesn't matter, Hippolyta, I've told you a thousand times that the external appearance of things doesn't matter. In musical instruments what matters is how they sound," Sev told her.
"Of course, of course."
"Let's see, try it with the reed, you have to press it very hard with your lips and blow very, very, very hard," Cecile told her. "Don't be impatient, it's going to be difficult, huh? It is much more difficult than the flute."
Hippolyta tried, she didn't even succeed on the ninth try. "Ugh... I'm getting dizzy…"
"Of course, I already told you that the oboe is more difficult. You need a teacher, I know very little, honey. I'm going to try it myself, at least so you can hear what it sounds like."
Cecile tried too, she couldn't get the reed to sound either. "Have you seen? I haven't achieved it either. Try it, Sev."
Sev tried, he did succeed. "Ugh… it's very difficult to make this sound, it takes a lot of force," said Sev.
"Of course, give a lot of pressure to the air," said Cecile. "Did you like the way it sounded, Hippolyta?"
"Not much, really," answered the girl.
"But because it was just the reed, honey. Sev, try the whole instrument."
Cecile mounted the reed on the oboe. Sev tried to make it sound again, it cost him even more than just the reed, but he managed it too.
"Have you seen, Hippolyta, now?" the Gryff asked her. "Do you really like the sound of it now?"
"Yes, I did like it, a lot," she said. "Can you play it again, Prince?"
"I'll try, but I'm getting dizzy too, huh?" he complained.
"Well, Sev, don't be Snivellus, come on, nothing is going to happen to you if you get a little dizzy," said Cecile. "You're in great shape."
"Indeed he is," said the youngest. "He's like a train."
They both laughed.
They're already buddying, you'll see as soon as they're alone, he thought.
"Well, I'll keep trying." Sev made it sound a few more times, with great effort.
Meanwhile, Cecile found and assembled another instrument.
"Which one do you like more, Hippolyta?" she asked her. "The flute or the oboe?"
"I like them both," answered the girl.
"Then take both and decide in the summer, with more time and teachers to help you."
"I want to learn both."
"Let's see, Hippolyta," Sev told her. "You want to do too many things, you won't have time."
"Time-Turner, Prince."
"I've already told you that Time-Turner not. Also, in the summer you won't have Time-Turner, and not only that, teachers cost a lot of money."
"Well, Sev, don't worry about that," Cecile reassured him. "If we get them through my mother they will make a price, favors between colleagues. Let her take both and decide in the summer."
"Also, the teachers will not be able to go to her house, she lives in Godric's Hollow, in a magical town."
"We'll teach classes at my house."
"Very well, then you also have to meet her parents as soon as possible," he suggested.
"Yes, don't worry about that either, I've already discussed everything with Deborah."
"Great, Cecile."
"Do you want us to try more, honey? I have a clarinet ready."
"Oh… no, no," Sev objected. "She is capable of wanting to play them all."
The three of them laughed.
"I do want to try, Prince," Hippolyta said. "I'll only take two."
"Sure, let her try it, the clarinet is easier, maybe she likes it more than the oboe, and I've already explained to you before about improvisation," said the Gryff. "Have you told her?"
"Yes, I have," he responded.
"Here, honey, just the mouthpiece. The reed against the lower lip, you also have to apply air pressure but without squeezing the reed too much.
Hippolyta tried it several times, she got it on the sixth time. "It's more difficult than the flute and easier than the oboe," said the girl.
"In theory it's easier than the flute, huh? Only it seems that you have a great facility for the flute."
"I think you should choose the flute and that's it, Hippolyta," said Sev.
"But leave her time and space to decide, man. With a teacher to help her, she may like the oboe more. The oboe is very special, very much so."
"Okay, okay."
"Stop being Snivellus, huh?" Cecile warned. "Either help or leave."
"Okay... I'll help. Go ahead, assemble the mouthpiece and I'll play it assembled so you can hear it."
"Try first with just the mouthpiece."
He tried it, it hadn't come out yet on the sixth attempt.
"She has it easier than you, huh?" Cecile said. "I think you're putting too much pressure on it."
"Of course, since so much was needed for the oboe…"
"But each instrument is different."
"Yes, I see." He tried it, with less pressure, it came out the third time, he did it several more times. "Yes, it is easier than the oboe, much more," he said.
"I'll assemble the mouthpiece for you." Cecile assembled the mouthpiece on the clarinet.
Sev managed to make it sound and did it several more times.
Meanwhile, Cecile found and assembled another instrument.
"Do you like it more than the others, Hippolyta?"
"No, I don't like this one so much," she responded.
"Very well, then one eliminated. Bring the clarinet, Sev. I'll dry it and put it away. Here you have a soprano sax. It's the same system as the clarinet, but I suspect it needs more pressure."
"Okay," he said. Sev made it sound three times.
Hippolyta told them, "Not this one, I don't like this one, it sounds very abrupt, I like the flute and the oboe much more."
"Great, another one eliminated," said the Gryff, "Leave it on the case, Sev, when I'm done with the clarinet I'll dry it. I'm going for a trumpet, although I already suspect that if you didn't like the soprano sax, you're not going to like the trumpet either. Too bad, because the trumpet is very easy to finger."
Cecile looked for a trumpet in the middle chairs and offered the mouthpiece to Hippolyta. "Honey, you have to pout inside this and blow very, very hard."
"Okay." Hippolyta did it, she managed to make it sound the fifth time. "Almost as difficult as the clarinet," said the girl.
"That is. Have you gotten dizzy?" Cecile asked her.
"A bit."
"Take the mouthpiece now, Sev."
Sev tried it, he made it sound the first time.
"Oh! A magnificent brass player," the Gryff said. "You could play a lot of instruments, they are very easy to finger, although too big to carry in your trunk. Take the trumpet. In September we'll try the others."
"Wow..." he said.
"Have you seen that you had to try? You get tired very quickly, Sev, it's not the first time I've told you this, you're too used to everything working out for you the first time."
"You are absolutely right, Cecile."
"Assemble the mouthpiece on the trumpet yourself, it is very easy. And you can get notes on this one. You hold it with your left and the three longest fingers on your right on the keys. Any combination you can think of, all three pressed, only two, only one, or none."
"Brilliant."
He did it, he hit all the notes the first time. He played for a long time, until he got dizzy. I love the sound, it is strident, yes, but it has a lot of strength, scandal, a wonderful contrast with the piano, Sev was thinking.
Meanwhile, Cecile dried and put away the instruments, showing Hippolyta how she should do it with the flute and oboe. When Sev stopped, they both applauded him.
"Did you like it?" he asked them.
"I loved it, Prince!" Hippolyta exclaimed. "You're great!"
"Don't you want to learn this one, Hippolyta?" Cecile asked her.
"No, no, let Prince learn this one, then we also look for songs to play with the flute or oboe. They sound very different, they sure sound nice."
"Honey, there are no songs for trumpet and flute or oboe."
"It's okay, we'll invent them," the girl suggested.
"You can also play the trumpet with me, Sev, sing and improvise accompanied by me on the piano."
"Wooow… it's true…" said Sev.
"A whole adventure ahead."
