Well, I can say, Rayne is a lazy bastard, that doesn't want to learn stuff the normal way, reading or writing sheet music is incredibly easy, I am not a musician, I just played the flute 1 year in school, and I can easily say, sheet music is fucking easy, only people that are not into music at all, which don't bother to learn the notations, don't understand d them simply because they didn't learn it, is a simple language, learning to code is more complex, so Rayne could easily take a 3 month course in Canterlot, and he would understand it no problem, but because he is not a musician, he just stole habilites, his mind is of a simple non musical civilian, bealiving he could never understand music notation.

Well seeing as Rayne is based off of me and my particular knowledge and interests, I would say that is something that I struggled with to learn when I was younger. And as such it's a difficulty that just stuck. It's not so much an unwillingness to learn or being lazy, as much as it is that nobody is good at everything. And that goes for magic stealing characters as well. I've never been afraid to show Rayne's faults as well as his strengths in this story and this just so happened to be another of his lesser talents. And just because something is easy for one person doesn't mean it is easy for someone else.

When I say that is very easy, is that it is objectivly easy, did you try lerning in a passing music course with a recorder? because I can tell you I was though that in kinder, and in primary school, and didn't learn anything but the names of each note, it was, as you say, just giverish, it is when I apply for the band playing flute, that I just marveled my self to find out is actually very easy and logical, it just took one month for me and every single noob in the Newby group to learn it as well, the diference relays in the method of teaching, you learn by playing you instrument, each sheet adds 2 or 3 new symbols, you play them for one or two days, then the new sheet with the new symbols, and so on, in a month you understand every sheet out there, in that month I could understand all sheets of music's in the music room, and now in the internet I can read them all; now, if you are giving Rayne a lack of music notation understanding, I find it imposible for him to write, give, share, any music from his mind, did Rayne have perfect pitch? because he needs that to properly transmit the music to anybody, or does he Humm the sounds? that won't help any musician, much less the elements or whoever he humms, because those would certainly need perfect pitch or real music notation habilites, I can read music on paper, but I can tell you that I can't write it down even if you give me all the notes, only a trained musician can put the music in paper form, because is way more than to put a b c in lines, so, at the end, Rayne not knowing how to write its imposible, you could have just put that he knows because he took the hability from octavia or another musician.

Oh well maybe he might have embellished his inability to Octavia a bit as an excuse to bring the song in and play it with her. He wasn't lying when he said that in his youth he had trouble with sheet music. But since gathering other ponies magic he's definitely learned the skill. But personal quirks are just that... personal quirks. Just because he can now doesn't mean he enjoys doing it. I know how to do math but that doesn't make it fun for me.
Nice chapter I'm right there with Rayne, despite playing an instrument for the longest time sheet music has always looked like moon runes to me amazing end to the chapter by the way
Gotta love what a bitch Octavia is. If it isn't classical music then it isn't actual music at all.

Well good for you, you pretentious fuckhead. Meanwhile I was in chorus for 8 years and still can't read sheet music on a reasonable level, maybe if you weren't such an antagonistic narcissist you'd be able to grasp the concept that not everyone can pick something up easily just because you could.
