dark and daisuke's relationship with music is.... hrmmgmm. they both easily pass any sort of dexterity requirement to be able to play even the most difficult pieces, but i don't think daisuke knows how to read notes, and he doesn't have much of a natural ear. meanwhile dark is the sort who can play and is sure to have a number of random hidden talents, but he doesn't actively derive any sort of personal pleasure from it. if you show dark a beautiful instrument, the music and usage comes secondary to the craft and beauty of the instrument itself- he never desires to nor imagines himself playing it, only how beautiful it would/should be with someone else playing it. both dark n daisuke would really enjoy listening to someone play or harmonizing in a duet with them though. it's just that music alone isn't something a phantom thief can steal.
