“Well,” I say to Chip, closing my eyes for a moment as I try to think of how to explain the concept. “A beat is kind of the framework of music. You know when you’re listening to a song and you’re instinctively tapping your foot or nodding your head to it? Then you’ve found the beat.” I hope he knows what music is, though. If he didn’t, I don’t know what I’d do. We’d have to sing songs and introduce it to him as soon as possible. I watch as Levita tries to pick a mission, realizing that I was grinding my teeth after that Vanillite leaves.

Doesn’t seem like he said how many papers there were, though. Either way, they shouldn’t be too hard to catch, considering you can fly and I’m psychic.

Team Crescendo never misses a cue!♪” Even though our mission probably isn’t that important, I’m feeling really hyped up for it: It’s our first mission, so it’s special no matter what it involves!
