Songs for Writing Inspo <3

hi friends.

here is a list of some songs that i think could potentially be good plot ideas / are cute aesthetics. i think i covered a vast variety of themes. some are for meet-cutes, some are sweet plot ideas, some are angsty anthems. i just wanted to leave this here partially myself but also for my fellow writers!

i hope this helps even a little bit!! 

<3 <3

Close Behind - Noah Kahan  > super lovey / soft aesthetic. vv devoted vibes.

Polaroid - Keith Urban > vv cute plot idea. i used this already but i would use it 8 million more times.

High School Lover - Cayucas > gives me 90s vibes. would be good inspo for a high school age fic / imagine. flirty but not necessarily super serious. definitely a youthful relationship vibe. 

Maine - Noah Kahan > my current fave. a song about reflecting on the early years of a relationship. could be either happy or sad, depending on how you choose to listen

One of Them Girls - Lee Brice > a bad-ass girl anthem tbh. good for an empowered female main character.

17 - Julia Michaels > another good high school inspo song. stan julia michaels or die. 

Banana Pancakes - Jack Johnson > rainy days & breakfast dates? yes please!

Hey Lovely - Chance Peña > he basically is saying that he’d give up any material possessions in the world bc all he wants and needs is his love. excuse me while i cry. 

Tangerine Skies - Declan J Donovan > kinda bittersweet. one last night of playful, youthful love. could be a salute to a bright future ahead or a farewell to a young love.

Mercy - Brett Young > post-breakup / mid-breakup angst. 

Play It Again - Luke Bryan > meet-cute!!

Ribs - Lorde > the woes of growing up. good for platonic or romantic relationships.

18 - One Direction > sweetest love story ever gn streaks.

Greatest Love Story - LANco > okay, one of my faves. the story of a young romance that fizzled when they went their separate ways after high school, but never truly died. they end up together at the end. perfect for any romance and also for soulmate aus. 

The Night We Met - Lord Huron > okay angst!! one of my favorite mellow songs. makes me cry every single time.

From the Ground Up - Dan + Shay > very cute love story. mentions the struggles that every relationship goes through, but the promising future that lies ahead.

I Love You So - The Walters > not much to say about this one. really vibey, lovey feeling.

Everything Has Changed - Taylor Swift, Ed Sheeran > i personally would use this one as a friends to lovers trope, but it could be used in a number of ways.

Come Dancing - The Kinks > honestly a happy song, but makes me a bit sad. could be used for a happy, youthful story, but also highlights the way things change over time. 

When You’re Ready - Shawn Mendes > pining !!!! oh my lord, this is practically a pining anthem. basically, shawn sings about how he knows that this girl is his soulmate, so he has no problem waiting for her. could be good for a friends to lovers trope.

Fine By Me - Andy Grammer  > honestly just a genuine, happy love song.

Hurt - Lady Antebellum  > big angst. super sad post-breakup song, a bit of pining. 

Send My Love (To Your New Lover) - Adele  > lost relationship on good terms. bittersweet. possibly angst?

Swoon - Beach Weather > a hidden gem of a song. good for an alternate-aesthetic kind of love. gives me teen movie, beachy vibes. 

Hoodie - Hey Violet > post-breakup with a chance for reconciliation. def still in love with each other but too stubborn to admit it.

Settle Down Easy - Rebelution > honestly just a vibey love song. good vibes all around

I Won’t Say (I’m in Love) - from “Hercules” > okay this one is a classic but come on. we all love stubborn main characters who don’t want to admit when they have a fat crush on someone. use this song more. please.

Slow Dance In A Parking Lot - Jordan Davis > my. favorite. song. super cute, pure romance. just spontaneous adventures and being smitten. use this shit rn.

Favorite T-Shirt - Jake Scott > a bit of the physical yet still PG relationship things. hot and heavy kissing and sharing clothes. honestly pretty cute. we have no choice but to stan.

Top 5 Games, ever...?

This was sort of on my mind, considering the recent GOTY post I made. Come explore the hyperfixations that managed to stick around long enough to be my top 5 list. 

5. Uhhhhhh

So turns out I haven’t figured out what number 5 is yet. I suppose instead I’ve got to split it among the honourable mentions, huh.

Kirby Super Star Ultra is probably the best game from the GBA/DS era of the series and is just a blast to play. It introduced Masked Dedede, and all the banging music and memes that come with it, and probably deserves a spot here just for that.

The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth removes all the awkward Flash Stuff from the excellent original, and adds so, so much more content- the game’s final expansion still isn’t out yet as of writing but even now there’s just so much to unlock. While some aspects of the game can be pretty unforgiving, you probably aren’t going to be exposed to the worst of it unless you get into it pretty hardcore, and if you do, you’ll get used to it. It’s a roguelike, after all.

Speaking of roguelikes, FTL: Faster than Light is chaotic yet serene, brutal but fair, and a bunch of other pretentious dichotomies wrapped into a neat little bow. It takes some getting used to the mechanics, but once you get the hang of it, building your little ship up and up in the face of all odds is extremely satisfying. Have fun dying hopefully not too many times.

SPEAKING of permadeath, Realm of the Mad God gets a spot here just out of sheer hours I’ve spent with it. After a messy few years with a not-so-great owner lead me to dropping the game, it seems finally to have recovered and has devs and community that actually freaking care about it, which is nice. Also, it’s free, and the recent transition to unity has the game looking better and playing smoother than 12-year-old me could ever have dreamed of.

Terraria isn’t just 2D Minecraft btw, its actually more of an RPG/Metroidvania thing, you probably know at this point, but its pretty good hey. Still haven’t fully dove into 1.4 but considering I thought Red was done at 1.1 I’m not complaining with what I have played.

 4. Fallout: New Vegas

(...ish??)

I’d argue that between the primitiveness of the original Fallout games (I’ve tried to get into them, but I just can’t) and how…meh… the other Bethesda ones are, New Vegas is the only one in the series to stand up strong. Obsidian’s excellent writing and tweaks to the gameplay of 3 make New Vegas feel like an actual world, rich and characterised, which was something I found lacking in previous open-world RPGs I’d played up until that point (which admittedly might just have been Skyrim). It’s a game that challenges you to make choices that actually matter for more than the mere moments of an altered dialogue tree, both in dialogue and character building, which helps make the game actually replayable. It is also the first game in a long time that really sold the idea of DLC on me, seeing as each of the game’s 4 expansions adds an entire new region of world with its own stories and unique gameplay, tying together with the main plot but standing on their own. I am excluding Gun Runner’s Arsenal from this for obvious reasons, though it isn’t like GRA is a bad DLC or anything- on the contrary, the sheer scope of modifications and munitions makes playing a repair/science-based character incredibly fulfilling- but it just isn’t at the same scope as the other 4 (Courier’s stash barely counts seeing as its just oops! All preorder bonuses).

New Vegas is one of the few games I have actually 100% completed, achievements and all, but I’m still pretty sure there are bits I’ve missed, paths I haven’t taken, characters I haven’t talked to. Despite its inhospitability, the Mojave is always a comfortable place to return to.

 3. VA-11 Hall-A

(Hey look, my phone background)

Vallhalla is a masterclass in storytelling, atmosphere, and aesthetic. Like all good cyberpunk dystopias, you get themes of class and transhumanism and artificial intelligence, but they aren’t the point of Vallhalla. Through the window and lens of cyberpunk and PC98 nostalgia is focussed a surprisingly human story centred around the protagonist, Jill, which through multiple replays still hits me in the feels just so. Of course, Jill’s story is not the only one being discussed, as every single patron of the bar has their own life going on, and the glimpses we get imply a rich, often interconnected, world. Glitch City is, frankly, a shithole, and it’s not like you don’t get some assholes coming into the bar while you’re working it. The first patron you serve, in fact, is a great example of this- Donovan D. Dawson, essentially a parody of J. Jonah Jameson, is a colossal prick and knows it- but its clear he has his own system of morals and it is mentioned that he’s excellent at his job, much as he gripes about it. He’s rude and more than a little sexist, but frustratingly charismatic and authoritative, and he’s just one of many people who show up throughout the game. Vallhalla is the perfect game to sit down, grab your preferred beverage, and just relax with.

 2. Total Annihilation

(This image is on the steam page for this one, despite blatantly not being from vanilla TA)

I think I actually need to explain this one. Total Annihilation was a game released in 1997 made largely by Chuck Taylor, who would later go on to produce spiritual successor Supreme Commander. It’s an RTS game featuring exclusively robotic units with a fairly chunky aesthetic, allowing the visuals to age better than some, and a fully orchestrated soundtrack by Jeremy Soule, who would later go on to do work on a whole bunch of stuff, most notably Skyrim.

Total Annihilation is an intensely nostalgic game for me, being one of the first games I ever got to play as a kid outside of edutainment stuff, and I’d argue still holds up today (especially with the excellent Escalation mod). What it lacks in story (it’s pretty basic, but functional) it makes up for being miles ahead of its time mechanically, being the first (?) RTS to function in 3 dimensions- heights of things actually matter, hills exist and certain units climb them better than others, shooting down airplanes is difficult without anti-air but possible if you aim *just* right. While appearing pretty similar and having largely analogous units, the two factions of Arm and Core are well fleshed-out in terms of aesthetic and playstyle- Arm preferring fast and cheap equivalents to Core’s slow but powerful- and the unit variety is sufficient that strategies can vary wildly based on the map. Both campaigns as well as those from the game’s expansions are challenging, but satisfying, limiting the units you can produce to force exploration of different playstyles.

Total Annihilation isn’t something I tend to binge play for hours anymore, but I’ll pick it up for a bit every so often, and I don’t see that stopping for a long time (especially due to the recent steam release).

 1. Pokémon Emerald

(At the top, where it belongs)

Yeah, this was inevitable. Pokémon is my favourite series ever; Emerald is my favourite in the series. Go figure.

Emerald, being the final game for the franchise’s days on the Game Boy, reflects everything Game Freak had learned in the first 3 generations of the series’ history. The game’s balance is challenging but fair, never spiking so tough that it is insurmountable but never holding your hand either. The AI opponents are throwing odd combinations of mons and moves at you from every corner, double battles are everywhere but rarely mandatory, and the variety of available mon both before and during the postgame is excellent. The added features on top of Ruby and Sapphire are great- Battle Tents serve to replace 3 of the contest halls (they should have all been under one roof to begin with) and provide a taste of what would later be available in the Battle Frontier. The Frontier is probably the single most expansive and challenging postgame in any Pokémon game, providing the game with a longevity that is sorely needed due to the inaccessibility of Pre-DS multiplayer. The game also manages to tie together the plot of both Ruby and Sapphire into something that feels natural, and provides the series’ first ever actual cutscene, which felt a lot cooler at the time than it sounds now. The return of animated sprites gives the Pokémon a level of life far beyond the static sprites of RSFRLG, and in my eyes wouldn’t feel the same until Black and White several years later. The return of the Pokégear phone in the form of Match Call, as irritating as it is to some, makes the world feel alive in a way that Sinnoh and Kanto probably never will, in addition to making grinding a fair bit less tedious and more beneficial. It is, altogether, probably the perfect Pokémon experience, and in my opinion only one other game comes close (its Platinum).

Oh also, they got rid of the font from Ruby and Sapphire, thank fuck, that shit is atrocious.

Repetition

By Sarinah, April & Mara (2018)

‘Secret Women’s Business’ is a collaborative artwork inspired by the traditional practices of Yvonne Koolmatrie’s. Koolmatrie uses the traditional ‘craft’ practices of Aboriginal women to create beautiful hand woven fishing baskets. The result is a functional and aesthetically pleasing piece made from dried sedge rushes. Although Koolmatrie is very open about the way she assembles the forms, the location of the materials collected to make her traditional fishing baskets are not revealed. Koolmatrie’s loyalty to keeping traditional collecting practices secret, inspired us to create an artwork around the traditions making ‘craft’ in community and the use of the Yarning circle.

Yarning circles often take place in a relaxed setting, traditionally used by Aboriginal people. Yarning circles are used to communicate ideas and the details of the day, often around a camp fire setting and around the company of close friends and family (Donovan, 2015). Similar to a Yarning circle, our work, ‘Secret Women’s Business’ uses the process of teaching and storytelling to communicate to a small group of women. The small circle of women represents community and the joy of company. The clay pots represent traditional ‘craft’ practices of Koolmatrie. The grass circular mats that the clay pots rest on form a foundation that brings both mediums together to form community with one another. The grass mats are also a nod to Koolmatrie’s traditional practices of collecting and weaving. Through the medium of live performance, our group re-enacts traditional practices through the use of storytelling, teaching, creating and ‘Yarning’. The Repetitive process of making the clay pots communicates how traditions live on, through the ongoing practice of making traditional ‘craft’ in community.
