William What Do You Think Of This V=dQw4w9WgXcQ

Log #3

Henry’s asking about my oldest memory. Now that one I recall, loud and clear. I’m a young man, seventeen or so, tickling the Ivories in the recording room. Singing. Back then we’d have to sing in front of this big horn, real big-like, I ain’t really ever grasped the concept of that thing but I assume it was capturing the sound somehow. I know they connect it to the stylus for the wax, and it etches as we go. That was before the handy dandy microphone, so things were a bit, ah, acoustical. I’m not a very machine-minded guy, I was just there to give them the tunes, so I just gave them the tunes, and left that kinda doohickey managing to the big boys. Nice memory. Air filling in my lungs and then out like a bullet. Sharp and dense enough to knock a guy dead. Don’t remember singing that proudly any other time in my life. My music kept falling off the piano as I practiced.

can you tell us more about henry? he seems like an interesting fellow

Boy, is he! Figure it's better to show you myself -- I'm headin' out to see him tomorrow morning if you wanna trail me!

How'd you meet Tati?

Through the boy she used to go steady with - short-lived as that was..

I was there watching him pull out all the stops for her.

Not exactly compatible. Well --

All things of the past now.

Tati says there's some kinda magic method on here for me to Pin my posts, so no matter what new whatsits I'm posting, one post's always gotta stick to the top like glue. So I'll look about doing that, and put my little recording of my cylinder there.

Hey, just found out about "Are We Doing This Thing or Not". From the transcript, it sounds very sweet. Was there ever a recording?

Thank you! It was a joy to sing. Last I heard, Henry had the recording.

Wow! @fortunateisle I bet she’d love to take a gander at this beaut once she crawls on back!

made fanart for @fortunateisle even though she's on hiatus :)

trans rights????!!!! 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️

Yes! Wahoo!

hey, welcome to tumblr - actually, i guess “welcome back” would be more accurate. nice blog you’ve got here!

Thanks a ton! Had a pal who showed me around here, and boy, it's different from out in the ether, but think I'm getting the hang of it. Figured I'd stick around a bit longer since my pal left.

Opinions on Mal?

Mallory Jane’s swell — honest! I know we’ve had our disagreements. She thinks what I hafta say’s all baloney, but I don’t let it get to me. Henry likes her, and I trust his judgment, and I’m happy he’s still got someone a bit close to talk to. I appreciate her for lookin’ out for him.

Hey Will. Seems like you're having fun with more people interacting here. How have you been feeling lately? Like, say, compared to when I first showed up? Any better?

Feeling swell! I'm always one for more company!
