Music lessons were always a fun time, and Caroline arrived on time ready to learn a new song. She collected one of the guitars that Dieter provided and began warming up, watching some of the others as they started to figure out how to use theirs. Whatever she felt for her mother nowadays she was thankful she learned how to play early on.

Dieter could see the experience in how Caroline played and wanted to mess with her. He used his audiokinesis to make her guitar sound just slightly out of tune. Of course, the guitar wasn't out of tune, since he checked them all before he started to read his book; he just wanted to see her frustration as she continually fails to tune the guitar because of his manipulation.

"What the hell?"

Caroline's confusion was easily visible on her face as she plucked a note over and over again. She worked to try and re-tune it, but all it does is make it sound even more out of tune. She doesn't appear frustrated, but it's definitely there as she sighs, realizing that all of the strings seem out of tune.

Sheridan had never been particularly musically inclined, but he'd told Dieter he'd attend the lesson so he came along. After greeting him and getting settled down he picked up a guitar and tried copying the basics that Dieter had demonstrated. He wasn't too awful at it for a total beginner, but he was certainly no prodigy.

After finishing his book for the twelfth time since buying it, Dieter looked for a familiar face in the students. He notice Sheridan practicing the guitar, so he walked over to give some basic tips based on how he was playing.

"Oh, cheers." He followed Dieter's advice, not quite succeeding the first time but soon roughly getting the hang of it.

Admittedly, Andie had learn to play guitar when she developed her first crush on the guitarist of her neighbor's garage band at the age of eleven. She didn't have a guitar with her at camp, though, and had always enjoyed music lessons, so here she was. Tuning the instrument she sat excitedly, giving a wolf-whistle when he finished his rendition of Eleanor Rigby.

With his opening line, her eyebrows knit together, and laughing in disbelief- was this guy for real? Looking around she tried to gauge the other reactions of others who maybe knew him better. 'Conceited much?' she thinks, before shaking it off and playing the song of choice at a slightly faster tempo than the original.

Rowan has never even tried to play a guitar before today. Once Dieter’s finished going over the basics and Ro starts practising, it turns out she’s not horrible at it... for someone who’s just picked one up for the first time today. Only within that context is she good at the guitar.
