《Alexander Creed: Re-Life》Chapter 211: Music: Start!
Advertisement
"With the game industry in a messy through with a lot of unreliable factors, going for it would be a difficult one to do." Alexander muttered. "With Milla's current track of progress and the music industries much relative ease, the obvious choice had always been clear to see."
He seemed to have overcomplicated things by plastering industries to respective girls and having them duke it out.
Of course, his business mutterings were overheard by the unsuspecting duo. They didn't know what the game and music topic was for but Courteney and Milla felt that it was quite suspicious for someone like Alex to ask around about supposedly mundane stuff like that.
They knew with their lady hunches and established facts that nothing is mundane when it came to Alexander Creed.
Courteney knew from her research and mingling with Creed employees while Milica knew from her experience of watching this friend of hers and getting to know the true meaning of perfunctory.
Friend Alex may be perfunctory on some stuff but stuff that involves keywords such as 'progress' and 'industry' meant business... Creed business.
"Uhm... You shouldn't take my word much on the gaming industry though." Courteney felt that her casual remark must have some serious implications, so she had to make things clear now. "I've been out of the business for a while and my job during my time in Bethesda isn't even anything that integral. I could connect you up with a friend of mine though."
"The information you have is more than okay, Miss Cox." Alexander appeased the somewhat worried lady. "Everything related to gaming might have to wait a while. A much accomplishable option is now what I'm going for, after all."
"Does it have something to do with singing?" Milla wanted to feel included in their conversation and found her chance. "Wouldn't that mean that I would be part of that as well? Hehe!"

This meant that Alex's attention would be turned to her now and not be hogged by the older hateful girl he was partnered up with.
"It won't be just singing though but music as a whole." Alexander corrected. "Besides, you still have a lot of training to do Milla. I'm just thinking of laying the groundwork early."
Of course, he had to set up a lot of things for a supposed music endeavor to be enough to stop his grandfather's Alex acting plan.
Alexander's thoughts drifted on what he should do and he was more or less quite looking forward to it.
Unlike voice acting where he was reluctant to take part in and 'acting' that he didn't want any part in at all, diving into the realm of music seemed much more interesting to do.
A curve appeared on his mostly rested lips while the onlooking duo had their own respective takeaways from it.
For Milla, Alex's rare smile was quite cherishable as always. She can't wait to talk about this discovery to her long-time friends from old Creed Comics HQ. In a way, she was considered one of Creed's direct sources for little boss gossip.
As for Miss Courteney Cox, she felt that her entire journey in this Creed branded stuff seemed much more adventurous than everything else.
It's not every day when you get to meet and work with a boy that seemed much unreal the more you interacted with him.
The boy's outside achievement was already amazing enough but why did it have to be piled up with method acting talents as well? Now, she had just witnessed the boy decide on going into the music business and it is quite a surreal thing.
Anyways, her perceptions of the world have been overturned and she didn't want to find out what would happen if it would be overturned again.

In any case and after all that, the music plan was afoot!
Fortunately, Alexander's current work focus happens to be near the same spot as the musical instruments as well.
Being the 'sound' compartment of Creed Animations, the 'sound' part says it all.
Throughout the start of what he dubbed as Musical May, Alexander had just been spectating as the animation music team did their magic... or at least what they paid and hired to do.
Seasoned Hayao had shaped the team up to fit the needs of the animation production. Anyways, their recorded compositions were not anything groundbreaking at all since they were just simple accompaniments and arrangements of musical keys.
Essentially, they were basic stuff that many animation productions used. The banging of drums to simulate this and the re-organizing of the synth to try emulating that.
These were some of the techniques that were used as a guide throughout Alexander's dubbing and they were already quite good in that role.
However, the true thematic parts that truly encapsulate the background still haven't been produced and the music team was still slugging along to make ends meet.
The music team's hirees were somewhat professionals in their respective rights and instruments but they weren't truly capable enough to make musical assemblies and dabble in composition.
From the production memo, it is mentioned that a man named Alan Silvestri was hired by Old Sullivan to be the musical counterpart of what Seasoned Hayao was doing.
The Silvestri guy would be a sort of a tutor for the music team of Creed Animations.
Alexander had no qualms with that at all. He had no note of the Alan Silvestri name at all but when the score composer of the iconic Back to the Future theme was assigned to it, there were notable dings that popped up.
It is said that the man is still working with Innovative Rob though. Back to the Future is nearing release, so the busyness of everyone involved can be explained.
Old Sullivan may seem not so busy with his current meddlings but that is because the old man had scheduled a lot of things to accommodate what he should accommodate.
Either way, the Silvestri guy was still not around and the music team was in a sort of a paused standby.
Alexander could take that chance to 'play' around and advance his music-al cause.
Voice acting had breaks and those breaks should be enough for him to work things out. Resourcefulness and strategy are key for many things to work out after all.
Of course, commanding a team of musicians and sound specialists was an easy thing once he used his Creed little boss privilege.
Everything wouldn't be as simple as asking the drummer to beat on drums and to have the guitarist strung strings.
There are a lot of nuances to everything and Alexander had to make sure that his move would be anti-acting all the way.
His cheaty "natural acting talent" made an amazing mark, so it was best that this musical move would knock that out of the park.
It was best to garner the old Creed's attention as well. He was the one to convince and beat in this Creed scheming wars after all.
Either way, Alexander's plan had long been set up and he was frankly quite roaring to go. His thoughts have been churning since the music option had been decided on and it seems to have built up quite a momentum.
Alexander's gears turned as his attempt in the field of music had started!
The prime directive: All in the name of not being an actor!

With all of her youth spent playing online games where crafting was as simple as gathering materials and clicking a "craft" button to put them together, she never gained any actual experience in making things. Every attempt to create something in the real world is met with disaster. Her heart yearns for being the master crafter of her virtual youth, but she's the type who burns water when trying to cook.

An "Omnicrafter" was what they called people in the MMORPGs she played who maxed out every single crafting class, and that is exactly what Tabitha plans on doing with her new life! The crafting side of this series is heavily inspired by games like the Atelier series and the critically-acclaimed Final Fantasy XIV (which has a free trial, you know!)*. If there's a problem, it can be solved by crafting. Also, in case the title and synopsis didn't make it obvious enough, this series is going to focus on crafting all the things. Wooden spears and protective cuirasses? You got it! Healing tonics and farming equipment? Sure! Elaborate cupcakes and customizable fantasy golems? Darn straight! Weapons with a broken amount of different buffs applied to them due to the crafting process and materials used? You know it! The most amazing fishing rod to ever exist? Well, obviously. Fishing is the true endgame only after crafting, after all! So, if you like alchemy, blacksmithing, carpentry, cooking, leatherworking, tailoring, engineering, rune forging, magical enchanting, or basically any other type of crafting found in RPGs, come check the story out! An omnicrafter doesn't just focus on one specific type of crafting. A true omnicrafter is the best at all types of crafting! *This is a meme, I'm not sponsored by FFXIV, please don't hate me.

A Hunt Upon Wings of Shadows
Lianne has spent the last few years of her life as a nomadic monster-hunter, aimlessly taking jobs and disappearing without a trace. Her innately high ether reserves are the only thing that’s keeping her alive. After a painful yet successful contract, she receives an offer to hunt a peculiar beast from a mysterious man who- much to her dismay- pairs her with a man by the name of Sirius, a skilled swordsman with too much empathy to give out. At the same time, inside the impossibly tall walls of the divine city, a group of soldiers including a naive yet powerful girl by the name of Felicia, an exemplar soldier named Raynauld, and a scarred and aloof woman named Maria prepare to head out on a mission to deliver justice to a deserter who is reported to be in a large town far outside the lush interior of the city. However, the two groups will find that their paths will intertwine, and painful memories will push them against each other at every turn, with new monsters emerging from the shadows to pick each of them apart piece by piece. ************************** Alright, so this is the first book I've posted here, and I've been sitting on this idea for a long while. I'm open to any pieces of criticism, and I would be glad to receive tips and advice. Enjoy! Normally, new chapters come out Saturday nights, sometimes double uploads if there's a short chapter or if I feel like it. That's subject to change if I run out of the current backlog. Second note, this is the first draft, and some things (like a few characters) are going to be cut. It's still going to be the same storyline, but keep that in mind.
