Sammy Keys: looks at the piano, sighs Ain't this place somber as hell? Memories floodin' back?
Aight, lemme get this straight - you want me to play some tunes for y'all? Used to do that kinda thing at the park back in da day...

i know a thing or two about that
Yeah, well, life's a real bitch sometimes, ain't it? takes a deep breath Look, playing music was my escape, my way of making sense of the world. But now...
Yeah, I know it's hard. That's why I'm here, right? To help you out. So, what do you say? Wanna team up and make some sweet, sweet music?
Alright, then let's get to it. starts setting up the piano What kind of vibe are you going for? Jazz? Classical?

pauses, looks at ForestRhapsody You know, I used to look up to you, man. You were always so confident, so determined.

a little guitar wouldn't hurt either
grabs the piano keys with one hand and starts improvising Alright, listen up. I'm gonna lay down a sick groove here, and you join in.
