I remember you mentioned having a Mihawk playlist, and the way you manage to find songs that perfectly fit the vibes of your fics and enhance the reading experience is one of the things I love about your writing

So I was wondering if you could share some of the songs on your playlist? Or even some songs that you associate with certain characters/tropes/scenarios?

I always love it when you send me asks, @sexc-snail.

I absolutely DO have a Mihawk playlist. I share the playlist construction with another creator on Tumblr who I love, cherish and adore: @sordidmusings. We add to it as we write, recommend songs as they come to us to help with words in works.

I could get into a long, long rant about music so I will add a page break here ❤. Lots of song recs to follow for the OPLA cast so far.

I am a violinist; have been playing for 25 years this year (I AM GETTING OLD, JEEPERS CREEPERS). Music is a great, passionate love affair for me and I adore learning about songs and pieces new and old. Here are some recommendations for songs and vibes I associate with the characters and the tropes.

I never add lyrics to my fics so the readers can visualize their own favourite melodies where they see fit, but I do have tunes in mind when I write them. The only fic I've really centralised a song about is the "You Should Be Sad" Mihawk fic I wrote a while back and the Koby series I'm writing.

Here are some song recommendations: all songs are Spotify linked. Enjoy a peek into my madness.

Writing this up while I think about it, probably gonna draft it, long story short: DanganronpAI. A Danganronpa AU for all of our favorite AI stories

Hear me out: All our favorite humans from AI stories are trapped in a death game with Monokuma. Monokuma, however, as Danganronpa plot states, is being controlled by one of the humans. Which human? Well, they gotta kill to find out oops!!! Or smth like that.

Anyway

Chell - Protagonist. Idk her ult. Dave Bowman - Supporting role. Idk his ult. Ted - Antagonist. Ult Casanova/Ult Heir (Actually Ult Conman)

As for the ootheerrs Ellen - Ult Computer Engineer maybe? Nimdok - Ult ??? Benny - Ult Philosopher Gorrister - Ult Peace Activist Frank - Idk his ult Dr. Chandra - Idk his ult Madeline - Ult Violinist maybe? Miles (Moles) - Ult Synthesizer perhaps but idk for sure

Obvi I'd wanna add other humans from other AI stories as well. And I think it'd be cool if we do see the other AIs from this stories who function more like game masters from YTTD. But tbh idk any other AI stories so def suggest ideas for this!!!

This isn't anything serious just me being silly hehe :3 so please let's stay silly here!!

James Reese Europe (February 22, 1881 – May 9, 1919), known as Jim Europe, was an American ragtime and early jazz bandleader, arranger, and composer. He was the leading figure in the African American music scene of New York City. Eubie Blake called him the "Martin Luther King of music". He organized the Clef Club, a society for African Americans in the music industry. In 1912, the club made history when it played a concert at Carnegie Hall for the benefit of the Colored Music Settlement School. The Clef Club Orchestra, while not a jazz band, was the first band to play proto-jazz at Carnegie Hall. It is difficult to overstate the importance of that event in the history of jazz in the US – it was 12 years before the Paul Whiteman and George Gershwin concert at Aeolian Hall, and 26 years before Benny Goodman's famed concert at Carnegie Hall. The Clef Club's performances played music written solely by African American composers, including Harry T. Burleigh and Samuel Coleridge-Taylor. His orchestra included Will Marion Cook, who had not been in Carnegie Hall since his performance as a solo violinist. Cook was the first African American composer to launch full musical productions, fully scored with a cast and story every bit as classical as any Victor Herbert operetta. He was known for his outspoken personality and unwillingness to bend to musical conventions, particularly in his insistence on playing his style of music. #africanhistory365 #africanexcellence https://www.instagram.com/p/Co9sxPNL2hd/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

🔥Lelia Daniels✨

Lelia is a pyromancer, an illusionist, a violinist, and her fatal flaw is that she wants to help everyone. 🎻

“Your transitions across strings are impeccable. You’re doing things I couldn’t dream of when I was your age.”

Lelia laughed. “Well, I have a cheat,��� she said, splaying her hand out wide. The spaces between her left fingers were probably insignificant to the average onlooker, but every other string player she’d talked to knew what they were looking at. Some even asked if she was a cellist.

Loony Benny’s eyes shown with recognition, and he nodded. “You must do your hand stretches.”

“Something like that,” Lelia said.

In truth, her hands just naturally did that. But she wasn’t going to complain. She focused less on hand stretches and more on grip strength in an attempt to keep all of her ligaments functioning properly—while secretly hoping nothing blew out beyond repair.

Victor Young

Victor Young (Chicago, 1900 - Los Angeles, 1956) American musician who stood out for his work in the cinema as a composer of soundtracks. Considered one of the most influential musicians in Hollywood, Victor Young came to the world of cinema after some absolutely rocky beginnings. As he was the son of Polish emigrants and mastered the language of his parents, they decided to send him to Europe, thinking about his early musical education. He studied at the Warsaw Conservatory and soon accredited great musical gifts, surprising his teachers, who witnessed a brilliant career that led him in his teens to be the first violin of the Warsaw Philharmonic Orchestra. Until that moment, his career did not suffer any setbacks; but, in 1917, he agrees to go on a concert tour in Russia, in full revolutionary euphoria. Security guarantees were minimal and he, in fact, was arrested. Everything raised fears for his personal integrity when a Bolshevik officer, admired for his talent, planned the escape of Young, who seemed touched by bad luck, because shortly after outwitting the Russian authorities, he was arrested again, this time in Germany, a country where his presence was not opportune, either. Once again, his talent as a violinist was the safe-conduct that helped him get out of prison, heading to the United States. After the hectic European tour, Victor Young decides to settle in Los Angeles, where he gains fame as a violinist. Attracted by the world of cinema, he tries his luck in the orchestra that Paramount has on staff to interpret the soundtracks of its productions. To everyone's surprise, Young began composing and arranging scores, and did so with such ease that he has gone down in film history as one of the world's most prolific musicians.

In his professional curriculum, there are around three hundred and fifty compositions and arrangements. His musical ability was best utilized by director Cecil B. DeMille, for whom Young composed unforgettable soundtracks such as those for Canadian Mounted Police and Samson and Delilah . However, Victor Young is best known for being the author of several western tunes without which it is difficult to explain the musical conventions of the genre: Johnny Guitar , Deep Roots and Rio Grande , among others. Although he devised soundtracks of unquestionable interest, in the case of The Quiet Man , he only won an Oscar, which was awarded posthumously, for Around the World in 80 Days , his cinematographic testament.
