If you know how to play but can't afford to get instruments, you could indulge yourself and play something here? [ he shrugs, reaching out and dinging one of the piano keys with no real regard for pressure or which note he's hitting. ]
There's the obvious "indulging" but enough wiggle room to make most things into an indulgence if you try hard enough.
[ gu yun quips - ] I do enjoy wiggle room. [ which, from their conversation earlier, probably makes sense! tactics, playing dirty, all that. ]
By that logic, I suppose indulgence could be near anything, couldn't it? After all, if I said that my particular form of being indulgent was drinking myself to a stupor, who would disagree?
[ walking with his hands tucked into his sleeves, gu yun makes his way over to examine the strings instruments, thoughtful. he's already been in here, considering his filched flute, so. ] Or, maybe it's wanton destruction.
Who doesn't enjoy wiggle room? [ what are you two talking about. ]
Repetition might be the mother of retention, but I wonder if we'll get told off for resorting to the same few indulgences each time. Then again, if you have to force yourself does it count as an indulgence?
[ mysteries. ]
... If you call it an indulgence hard enough, maybe it'll count. [ what are they fuckin' up? ]
[ that wiggle comment gets a wink and a wiggle.. of his eyebrows. what ARE you two talking about.
anyway. ] Hm. That's a good point. [ re, indulging, anyway. gu yun taps his chin, moving past the strings and over to the dj booth instead, examining it. ] Though this place seems quite focused on one type of indulgence over another. Wiggle room, if you would.
[ haha ] Besides, there's a fine line between indulging on accident and on purpose, too, isn't there? If I accidentally discover I enjoy something, like, for instance... suddenly taking apart a machine, then does that still count?
[ the idea makes him snicker a little more, but really, that's just because he thinks about shen yi, and how that probably would be his idea of an indulgence. what a nerd. ]
Indulgence is what you make of it. I could lie in a hot tub for three hours and drink a whole bottle of wine and that would count as fairly indulgent. As far as I'm concerned, at least.
[ although they are just... giving them entire dishes with condoms in so the angle they're aiming for is not lost on him. ]
Wiggle room. If you're not doing it all the time, and it's a lavish bit of fun for you then... I'd say it counts.
[ if yuri's nearby, he gives him a nudge for that, grinning. ] I think maybe you and I have the same definition of indulgence, after all. Throw in someone there to rub your shoulders, then it's paradise.
[ man, when was the last time he relaxed like that? never, probably. there will be some good things about this indulgence business, after all.
thoughtfully, gu yun eyes the dj booth. ] What do you make of this, then? Any idea what it is?
anyway. he goes to walk around the dj booth thing, examining the rows of buttons.
sigh. ] I don't have the head for this sort of thing at all. [ are you sure
anyway, because he's gu yun, he taps the biggest, reddest button, which immediately starts playing that homestuck music or whatever the fuck it is. surprised, he pulls his hand back. ] Oh.
[ at least it's easy to revel in chaos, when it's not directly setting something on fire. yuri flicks another button, and the lights at the front of the dj decks start changing colour periodically.
the lights are very bright. gu yun drops on the floor to look at some of the smaller buttons to the side. he reaches to tap a different one, and the lights in the entire room dim. mood lighting. ]
[ it. y'know it did something and really that's all they can hope for right now. while gu yun is crawling around on the floor as one does, yuri has found a wire and has started to follow it. ]
[ yuri follows the wire all the way to the... wall? where it seems to be trapped inside the wall itself. that seems weird.
he tugs it.
and then he tugs it again.
and then with a final pull he.................. pulls out the power cord. and the whole dj deck shuts down so fast it practically leaves him disorientated from the sudden lack of light, with ringing ears from all the noise that is suddenly god. ]

Never seen anything like it in my life. I'm assuming it's... somehow music related? Seeing as it's in the music room.

I take back my assessment of this being related to music.

he hits another button, making it mix in some sick edm. ] ...Huh.
[ time to hit more buttons, ]
no subject
[ this can only go well. yuri wanders over and leans over the console, pushing an unassuming button towards the edge of the console.
lights flicker on at the front of the decks and start flashing in time with the music. is this how dj decks work? i don't know. it is now. ]
no subject
[ gu yun says this with all the glee of a delighted child, as he hits another button to make yet more noise layer over top. remix! or something ]
no subject
Where is all this noise even coming from, anyway. I don't see it playing instruments.
[ he presses another button. a klaxon starts blaring, and it does not stop. ]
no subject
oh, that noise is awful. gu yun laughs, an obnoxious cackle, more amused than anything, and plugs one of his ears. ] Now you've done it!
[ how utterly unhelpful ]
no subject
[ it just won't stop ]
no subject
awful. this is hilarious. ]
no subject
another button is pushed and that typical "UNN TSSH UNN TSH" beatboxing noise emerges to join the party. the truly terrible party. ]
[ do they even know how to turn this off? ]
no subject
gu yun smacks a button, and it does stop the klaxons. at least there's that. ]
Well, one down. I think we're making it worse. [ he's still grinning like a shit, delighted by this horrible cacophony. master of chaos. ]
