Location: Orphanage
Background: Over the years, as he becomes more adept with his harmonica, Cole starts to create 'theme' music for each of the residents of the orphanage and hotel. The themes generally correlate to Cole's perception of that person and the person's personality. Ollie, for example, probably has fast-paced music that is a bit frantic. Nora would have something dark (think: Imperial March from Star Wars). This even starts to serve as a form of warning signal to the other kids. When another warning signal, such as crying out, might be too obvious, Cole will play Nora or Mr. French's theme to alert others of their coming. The other kids also use the themes to warn each other - but simply whistle them.
After Ella has been beaten, Cole comes to her. Though he doesn't mention the beating specifically, it's kind of obvious he's there because he wants her to feel better. To that end, he brings out his harmonica and explains about his theme music. Ella, being musically inclined, has already caught on and can even whistle/hum back some of the music for the other residents already. Cole notes that she will, of course, have to have a theme as well. He suggests that they come up with her theme song together. They then pass the harmonica back and forth working out her theme slowly. This is the first time Cole has let her play his harmonica. They don't finish in one sitting, but over time work on it until both are completely satisfied.
<#ann: I want to know what Celeste's theme sounds like. Jonah, you're musically inclined. I think you should write music for us all. #>
<#jonah: This is a fun idea, and I'd be up for trying it, but it's really Bill's thing so I'd only take it on if a) he thought it was fun, and b) he didn't want to do it. #>
