L'ri just smiled as he continued to swim and float. "Not partial to any instruments eh? Perhaps he's just not found the right one? I have a younger brother, and for a while I thought he might not be partial to any particular instrument... but with how he started to act as he got older I started to think that maybe he was just ashamed of the instruments he was interested in. It might not be a particularly popular view to think that it doesn't matter what instrument you prefer, and some orchestras can be quite demanding in what instrument they think you should play, but... I'm not that sort of conductor I suppose. I believe music should be written from the soul."
Oncaeth huffed, annoyed that his rider was taking such a long time to talk about silly things like orchestras. You're rambling. "Ah, I suppose you're right, I am rambling a bit. Anyway I won't judge you over your instruments." Oncaeth took the opportunity to pounce upon Pardrith before bouncing away in glee. As he got an actual question from the boy, L'ri paused to tilt his head just enough to get a better look at Ch'es. "Oh?"
He considered the question and shrugged. "I think it's a quite fun activity and worry you might be missing out, but I suppose if you don't want to just politely decline. You're not in the position to be married off as part of a political move, so no spouse to oblige yourself to. Though..." L'ri's voice trailed off a bit as he studied the bronze dragons as they frolicked. "You may have a different thing to consider once they're a bit older. I think there's a class about it if my memory serves correctly. I couldn't help but try to find a lesson plan for the weyrlings. For now don't think about it too much. It would probably cause more grief than it's worth and people change over time, who knows, maybe you will find an instrument that catches your interest by then and your worries won't matter."
L'ri resumed swimming at that, before adding, "Oh and remember, just because you see an instrument doesn't mean it needs to be played. Sometimes instruments just happen. Like for swims."
