Share five songs you associate with your OC, then share three outfits you think they'd wear.

As per the usual, this'll be for Vice. I spent a stupid amount of hours finding the songs. The outfits took me ten minutes.

Seriously.

'ꜱʜᴏᴡ ᴍᴇ ʜᴏᴡ ᴛᴏ ʟɪᴠᴇ' ʙʏ ᴀᴜᴅɪᴏꜱʟᴀᴠᴇ

ᴀɴᴅ ɪɴ ʏᴏᴜʀ ᴡᴀɪᴛɪɴɢ ʜᴀɴᴅꜱ ɪ ᴡɪʟʟ ʟᴀɴᴅ, ᴀɴᴅ ʀᴏʟʟ ᴏᴜᴛ ᴏꜰ ᴍʏ ꜱᴋɪɴ ᴀɴᴅ ɪɴ ʏᴏᴜʀ ꜰɪɴᴀʟ ʜᴏᴜʀꜱ ɪ ᴡɪʟʟ ꜱᴛᴀɴᴅ ʀᴇᴀᴅʏ ᴛᴏ ʙᴇɢɪɴ

This is where Vice's journey starts, pissed off, irreverent, selfish and bitter about the Bakkers joining the Snake Nation. He's determined to make his own way, alone, just to spite them.

'ᴡᴇᴀʀ ᴍᴇ ᴏᴜᴛ' ʙʏ ᴄᴀꜱʜꜰᴏʀɢᴏʟᴅ/ꜱɪᴅᴇᴡᴀʟᴋꜱ ᴀɴᴅ ꜱᴋᴇʟᴇᴛᴏɴꜱ/ᴍᴀʀʏ ᴍᴏʀᴛᴇᴍ

ɪ ꜱᴀɪᴅ ɪ'ᴍ ꜱᴏʀʀʏ ᴛʜᴀᴛ ɪ ᴛʜɪɴᴋ ᴀʙᴏᴜᴛ ʏᴏᴜ ᴇᴠᴇʀʏ ɴɪɢʜᴛ ɪ'ᴍ ꜱᴏʀʀʏ ɴᴏᴡ ʏᴏᴜ ᴋɴᴏᴡ ᴛʜᴀᴛ ɪ ᴄᴏᴜʟᴅ ᴅᴏ ʏᴏᴜ ʀɪɢʜᴛ

Night City offers opportunity and notoriety for those willing to shoulder the reputation and challenges. He's not wanting for anything - jobs, eddies, sex. It's a dream come true, and he's about to crash and burn.

'ᴀɴɢᴇʟ' ʙʏ ꜱʏᴄᴀᴍᴏᴜʀ

ɪ'ᴍ ʙᴜꜱʏ ᴛᴀʟᴋɪɴɢ ᴛᴏᴏ ᴍᴜᴄʜ ᴄᴀɴ'ᴛ ᴋᴇᴇᴘ ᴛʜᴇ ᴀɪʀ ɪɴ ᴍʏ ʟᴜɴɢꜱ ɪ ɴᴇᴇᴅ ᴛᴏ ᴘᴜʟʟ ᴏᴜᴛ ʏᴏᴜʀ ᴛᴏɴɢᴜᴇ ᴡɪᴛʜ ᴍʏ ᴛᴏɴɢᴜᴇ

Post-The Heist, he's been knocked off course in his rise to fame, he's lost a choom, thrown away his sobriety, and gained a radical rockerboy in his head. He learns to love the hopelessness of his situation.

'ᴅʀɪꜰᴛ' ʙʏ 3ᴛᴇᴇᴛʜ

ᴀʙᴀɴᴅᴏɴᴇᴅ ʟɪᴋᴇ ᴛʜᴇ ᴀᴍᴇʀɪᴄᴀɴ ᴅʀᴇᴀᴍ ʙᴇɢɢɪɴɢ ʏᴏᴜ ᴛᴏ ɢᴏᴠᴇʀɴ ᴛʜᴇᴇ ᴄᴇʟᴇʙʀᴀᴛᴇ ᴍᴏʀᴀʟ ᴠᴀɴɪᴛʏ ᴡɪᴛʜ ᴀ ᴘᴇʀᴍᴀᴡᴀʀ ꜰᴏʀ ᴇᴛᴇʀɴɪᴛʏ

He's died - been killed - three times, he's seething, there is no cure, so he'll make damn sure Night City remembers him when he's gone - he has something to say and they'll listen, or they'll burn.

'ᴀʟᴋᴀʟɪɴᴇ' ʙʏ ꜱʟᴇᴇᴘ ᴛᴏᴋᴇɴ

ɪ'ᴍ ᴄᴀᴜɢʜᴛ ᴜᴘ ɪɴ ʜᴇʀ ᴅᴇꜱɪɢɴ ᴀɴᴅ ʜᴏᴡ ɪᴛ ᴄᴏɴɴᴇᴄᴛꜱ ᴛᴏ ᴍɪɴᴇ ɪ ꜱᴇᴇ ɪɴ ᴀ ᴅɪꜰꜰᴇʀᴇɴᴛ ʟɪɢʜᴛ ᴛʜᴇ ᴏʙᴊᴇᴄᴛꜱ ᴏꜰ ᴍʏ ᴅᴇꜱɪʀᴇ

Then he's given another chance, he even falls in love, suddenly his whole outlook changes, but to save her he has to let her go, and so he does what he promised to do and condemns himself in the process. He refuses to regret it.

Three outfits Vice would wear

Vice is a dusty Nomad at heart, he feels most at home in torn denim and worn leather because they're practical, but is just as comfortable wearing heavy cargo pants and jackets bristling with studs and safety pins.

On days where it's too hot to layer up but he doesn't want to walk around shirtless, crop tops are a nice compromise, and he wears shorts fairly often. He'll wear most of these fits while working a gig too, he doesn't care - he might put on a flak vest sometimes, but he feels pretty invincible and has cybernetics that mitigate most ballistic damage.

REPLICA PLAYLIST

MUSIC UNDER CUT

I have been receiving requests for any songs that inspired Replica, so here, have my personal playlist. Sorry it’s not Spotify/Soundcloud but they don’t have some of these songs available so uh… guess you’re stuck with YouTube vids. For fun I'll include my personal titles for them (which might give a few hints of what to expect in the future/end).

Replica Main Theme - “Die for You” by Grabbitz Like Father Like Son Like Brother (Omega and Shelldon) - "As Above So Below" by Alistair Lindsay Mikey's Theme / The 1st Vision - "Suzume no Tojimari" by Nanoka Hara Military (Mad) Dogs / Central Park Colony - "Imperium" by Madeon Shanghai - "Icarus" by Madeon Boom Goes the Donnie-mite (Mikey/Donnie vs the Sweeper) - "The Red Zone" by Mitsuoto Suzuki The Day the Sky Bled Red - "7 Seconds Till the End" by Nobuo Uematsu Going Out Like a Boss (Raph and Leo) - "Agape" by Nicholas Britell Remembering the Right Way (Mikey and Leo) - "The Souls of Many" - by Alistair Lindsay Mystic Hands / The 2nd Vision - "Am I Dreaming" by Metro Boomin x A$AP Book 2 Trailer - "Sea Dragon" by Covet 7 Years Later - "Iron" by Woodkid Leo's Theme / Attack on the Labor Camp - "Ego Death" by Polyphia Omega's Theme - "Touch" by Daft Punk Flat Lines (Omega Alone) - "Die Toteninsel Emptiness" by 1000 Eyes Spear - "Monsters" by Tommee Profitt Final Protocol - "The Kraken" by Katie Dey Rise / Epilogue - "Close in the Distance" by Masayoshi Soken & Tom Mills

I will admit, it's a little embarrassing since you can easily see the patterns of what I've been listening to for the past year or two. I swear I listen to more than just videogame OSTs, these songs just jive well with the story and I often find lyrics distracting when brainstorming scenes. Regardless, the music I listen to is such an important part of my creative process and some of these songs really defined the scenes I now have locked in my head. So I figured it was only fair to give them the credit they're due.

I will continue to add to this playlist, and will note in comic updates when one of these songs is applicable!

everybody say thank you to hozier for murdering the good omens fandom once again. First I think I'll take my whiskey neat, my coffee black and my bed at three, you're too sweet for me and then But who wants to live forever, babe, you treat your mouth as if it's heaven's gate? SIR. SIR COME ON. Crowley got tits over arse drunk fairly recently and trauma dumped all over you again, didn't he?

hozier wrote 'too sweet' for the "i can fix him" sunshine girls who have always been too good too nice, for the people pleasers who are terrified of failure, and for those who find the darkness intriguing
