which music from any videogame or movie soundtrack better fit your muse?
NOTE: if they have a canon theme, don't use that one!!!

(( You know, I was going to answer this agonizing over how much trouble the question gives me, namely because I seldom play or watch anything with a soundtrack that I could even associate with Miranda, and of those that I do, it's due to already being fish-themed ( Blue Planet, Chased by Sea Monsters, Dredge, Endless Ocean, etc ). But then I realized I have been using a song from a movie soundtrack as a defacto theme for her this entire time.
Anyhow. Final Parade from The House, my beloved.
#Most secret royal advisor || OOC#Dreaded rumors || Asks#infernalpursuit#(( i have so many feelings about this song in specific for miranda#(( especially with the actual context from where this song comes#(( fully recommend looking at the full scene if you ever get the chance#(( its just. the marching to your own doom and being laid low to your most Despicable Form#(( because You Deserve This And You Know It. Don't You?#(( about being crushed by a system you tried to appeal to and tried to get ahead of#(( about rotting alive and festering and doing it willingly because. haha. what else are you going to do?#(( where else are you going to go? who else is going to take you in?#(( its about a form of self hate that doesnt even briefly glorify yourself with ending the pain or making yourself more honorable#(( you deserve the worst and thats what you are getting#(( and i think about it many many many times just in terms of#(( within the merkingdom and within the system of the merkingdom#(( how it prioritized and burned into miranda's mind a kill switch#(( that she will happily and willingly die when they tell her to#(( she is an object and she can be turned off when they dont need her anymore#(( she is replaceable and she is important only through her relationship to this system#(( so that miranda would not fight and would not resist when it comes to putting her down#(( she would not doubt and she would not question and she would lay down and take it because thats what good princesses do#(( her purpose now is to die and she will do it with the same compulsion and grace that she did with every other duty and demand
