[Emil picked up his flute a week after the Russel's summoning incident, when the burn on his hand stopped hurting (fucking Firebirds). The Echo he got told him he can use music to do magic... but not to summon things like Russel. Unfortunately, he didn't even get a hint to what he CAN do. He tried to figure it out on his own, but he had no idea how to start. Maybe if he thought really hard about what he was playing…
The experiment ended when he heard his mother crying in the hallway. Emil went to check on her, worried, but it turned out even she couldn't tell what’s gotten into her.
“I don’t know,” she said. “but you played a such sad song and I just started thinking about things…”
Could this be the Echo he was looking for? Emil wasn’t sure. He had no intention of testing it on his family again, but that's what the network was for.]
Hey people, I need your help.
I think I got a new power, but I’m not sure. So I want you to listen to this and tell me if you feel anything.
Anything at all.
[What follows is Emil playing Donna Donna on his flute. It is strangely, unnaturally depressing... and NOT because the performence is mediocre at best.]
(( OOC: Emil can now manipulate emotions with music. Donna Donna induces sadness, but he's still new to this so how much it affects your character is up to you! Depending on how sensitive they are, it can be anything from feeling vaguely bummed out to bursting in tears. ))

I guess making your opponent have to cry is one way to fight.

[Papers shuffle as he goes through his sheet music.]

[He plays the dance of the reed flutes. There are some technical slips and the sound leaves something to be desired but the magic works nonetheless since Emil is concentrating on the story behind it. A charming, happy dance performed for Clara as she sits by her prince in a magical dreamworld.]
[Voice]
Not that he really feels disturbed, since he's too busy being happy. ]
It's working.

I'm glad you like it.

[And then he gets another Echo.]

It’s the meaning, I think. You can’t just play some generic sad music to make people sad, you have to know why it’s sad. Or happy or whatever. It works better when I think about what the song means.
[Voice]
I wonder what separates the emotional from the physical. If there is a difference. Maybe they're connected.

[BAM, another Echo.]
[Voice]
You're really good at this!
[Voice]
It was nothing, really. Just seemed logical.
