shit dood for quick hc
pre kpdh rumi voiced her repressed emotions via playing guitar in her room and she played a LOT . the excess practicing + already being musically inclined basically made her a prodigy…? also she likes using fingerstyle and post kpdh she uses her claws
rumi is the type of person to start with sungha jung using miyeong's old guitar in the jeju hanok, get an electric guitar when she moves to seoul predebut and learn polyphia for fun, then decide to learn marcin's percussive playing because she was bored on their one off day after months of promotions...
i think the funniest possible outcome is either
rumi going on weverse to post an audio clip of her most recent polyphia attempt, with a sad face saying that she's working on it (it is almost up to speed and too clean for the kpop princess the fans assume she is) and breaking twitter
rumi never saying anything other than demurring "oh i play guitar sometimes" and everyone assuming zoey and mira are just hyping her up as usual... only for a variety show to actually give her a guitar and she plays something crazy and also breaking twitter
either way by the end of the month bobby is fielding calls from basically every guitar and guitar-adjacent company in the world for a sponsorship and offers to design a signature model
i wonder if she'd accidentally snap strings by picking a bit too hard with her claws though 🤔 especially right after canon when she's getting used to them
