Thursday DE: I wanna rock n roll all night
Your character is starting a band. Yes, even if it’s something they would never do. What’s it called, what kind of music do they play, what does your character do in it?

Evelyn would probably actually be on flute or something. Something that fades a little into the background and keeps her from having to speak.
Lois would so on the vocals. Rocking out. Either modern off-beat pop (once into canon proper) or 80s covers. Her friend Maddy (of canon proper) would be the one choosing. Lois would also insist she's back-up vocals, and then end up not. And probably also on lyrics! Come on, it's Lois, you know she would. (And her long-distance friend does the editing...)
R2-D2 would be involved in techno and either doing back-up/beat-boxing and/or post-production editing.
Anakin probably cannot manage not to be on lead guitar in rock stuff (because he hates cantina music actually). He's Anakin. That said? All I have to say is he would also, later, play jazz. Just go, it's worth it.
Tavi-- look, I have headcanon that while he's not tone-deaf he's basically indifferent, and this is because I need to separate him from me more. This is really hard for me to answer! Kitai's the musical one. ... Oh fine. Give Tavi percussion, he would find it super-intriguing actually and he doesn't have to deal with melody. Except then he starts caring about theory and getting interested in the structure and probably picks up piano just to work out the underlying principles. God help us all. At least he'll never be classical-concert quality pianist. (He would also be interested in editing. ... Look just keep him away. For all reasons.) (He probably has a perfectly serviceable voice and zero interest in singing, rather to Kitai's dismay.)
As for me? HAH. I hope to one day be on mandolin, with folk and folk-fan-music and Celtic-rock and maybe just actual rock for fun! I've done jazz piano, and could go back to it or otherwise rhythm section piano with other work and would LOVE it! Also, jazz or rock flute is so underrated and I would love going back to that. And vocals, man, I adore singing so much that it's part of why I want to pick up mandolin properly so badly. It's freaking hard to haul around even a keyboard, let alone a piano proper. But mandolin! I don't want guitar, too large for my liking. I'd put that consideration aside for a lute, though. Lute would be awesome. And I could still sing with it!
And I'm hoping that by the time I'm ready for that kind of performing I'll also be okay at the lyrics and composing so I can just. Write fan-songs and sing them at conventions in silly fan-rooms and maybe talk them into letting me have a tiny half-hour presentation and have a tiny claim to awesomeness. I already have one song, at least! It's heavily borrowed from another song, as many filks are, but it's still a DA:I filk! OH! And a You Are My Sunshine. Except it's You Are My Jedi. About Rey.
Look I am really silly sometimes.
. . . whoops i will stop this now
