I don’t know if you remember me, but we met briefly at your sister Elizabeth’s graduation, and then again at Peter and Melody’s wedding. It’s very fun to hear from you again. =) Thank you especially for taking the time to help me out with my “mystery” chord! I rather suspected it was a Dmaj7 because of the C#, but I wasn’t sure since I wasn’t playing the F# to make it a full chord. The other one I thought it might be was an Asus, but that seemed less likely because I went from C# to D instead of resolving a D with a C#.

As far as your “mystery” chord, it sounds like you have a D major 7th chord. This chord is typically found in jazz music, and it can create a spacey, floating feeling. In the key of D major, the C# is a tone that naturally wants to move to the tonic (D), so the fact that your rolled chord has a D as the last note, gives the chord a sense of completeness.
