[She's sticking with words because somehow that feels easier than admitting this is a big issue for her.]
It's okay.
It is but I also didn't let anyone see me with them other than two people. I used to hide them.
But now they're gone I feel guilty for asking for them to be gone. Because Titania wants me to be here and doing this which is like I never argue wit her I would die for her (I literally have!) and I got them doing something she asked me to do and
:(
I don't know. They made me feel ugly. But I feel weird without them.
[Illiteracy is nothing new to her. Dealing with Red Kite - the ranger who literally grew up in the wild - had been an experience in patience for her for some time now.]
[If asked, Corbin would assert that he knew how to read and write, thanks. It wasn't his fault the letters kept switching around as he tried to read them. It made reading a trial that he usually avoided, and the bad eyesight didn't help]
[Corbin smiles and gives her a wave when Peony's face pops up on his page]
Hey Pea.
[He thinks about it a moment before he nods]
I guess so, I ain't never thought about it much before, but they don't tell much of a story, do they?
[He does like things that... well they aren't ballads, but he likes songs that tell stories more than ones that are just, whatever the lyrics to Wonderwall are.]
I've heard worse, trust me. Lotsa folks like to rhyme the same word, lazy shit like that. I mean, I can't sing worth a damn, but I can tell you not to rhyme away-oh with hey-oh.
But nah, it ain't all like that. That's like... rock music? Sorta, I wouldn't put it in the same category as Aerosmith or some other bands that are supposed to be in the same category? And there's a buncha other kinds of music, some of it's good and some of it's pretty damn awful. It gets complicated when you get too much into it.

[And then he has to think about it for a bit]
That's rough. I mean, you didn't like 'em, and that's fine, you know? Maybe you just feel weird cuz you're used to seeing em and now they ain't there?

I don't know. Maybe.
Thanks Corbin.
You're a good advice giver.

[He smiles after reading her last message]
No problem, I'm glad it helped.

[For all of Corbin's advice about a serious topic Peony sounds surprisingly chirpy? And she starts to play a song. It's a proper thank you.]

[When she's done he grins and even gives her a round of applause]
Shit, Pea that was great!
[video]
Might as well take the praise visibility.]
I found the sheet music in the library. There was a book of Earth songs. Even some from home I didn't know about.
There's lyrics but they're pretty...dull I guess?

And what is a wonderwall? I've never heard of one before.

Is all music from your world like this?
