#Music Playlist: Phosa

[justashadetalkative]

🐻and/or🎧 for any or all, I just need to know 👀👀

🐻 (or “creature”) + a character name to find out what animals or creatures inspire receiver’s writing of that character

Phosa: Lions, somewhat - mostly just the potential radiant/sun imagery, heh. Spiderwebs for some of her manifestation design, though idk if that counts as a creature. Also, these things.

Linast: Originally not much -- mmmaybe bats, and umbreon if that counts--but ever since you had Titus nickname him Buck, deer have definitely been on my mind. xD

Diamond: Snakes, technically. (...even more so if you count the character inspiration of Kaa.) Cats more realistically -- especially the stereotype of being capable of deep affection, but only on their own terms and in their own time. And for being prickly otherwise.

Clemcy: Cats again, this time for sun-basking & mouse-tormenting reasons. xD

🎧(or “music”)+ a character name to find out what songs/style of songs inspire receiver’s writing of that character

Everyone has a five song narrative playlist, actually! Here's the tag. Phosa & Linast's are a little outdated but still not too far off the mark, I don't think. And Clemcy's is just a lot of fun slkfhsdgd. Perks of Disney villain music!

You sent Half-Decade Hangover my way a while ago and it was On Point so here is where it'd fit into the narrative playlist, if I hadn't limited them to 5 songs. ^_^ (If I were to work it in and trim the playlist back down to 5... would probably trim out The Gambler. It and Good Grief kind of cover different points of the same turnaround point, if that makes sense.)

I also have a playlist that theoretically tries to capture the kinds of songs that I think Spire Diamond might listen to while working! (Diamond's Worklist.) By necessity it's thoroughly filtered through a) songs I myself have heard, and b) songs I myself am willing to listen to while working on occasion. xD

Special mention to The Day It Fell Apart for being folk/filk music (Diamond loves social & narrative music) and for having the kind of irreverent morbid humor that can be right up his alley. (...and also for being a tale that probably isn't too terribly far off from some shit he's actually pulled over the years.)

Character Playlists (p.2)

✶ 𝒎𝒖𝒔𝒆 𝒑𝒍𝒂𝒚𝒍𝒊𝒔𝒕 ✶

Prompt:  Post   3  -  5   songs   that   remind   you   of   your   muse. Rules:    Repost, don’t reblog.

Tagged By: @eliza-williams-1922​ ; thanks for the tag!

Tagging: @elk-and-thearchivist​ @magicmonstersandmischief​ @sunlithalo-goldeneyes​ @magicalmultimuse​ (Michael or Brook?), and anyone else who would like to!

I already have some carefully curated playlists for everyone, but! There were plenty of songs that didn’t make the cut for those, and other songs that I’ve found since, so everything here is new. 

Stars beside the ones that I think are most interesting or that are at least vaguely uplifting, because a) there are a lot of songs, and b) most of it’s an angst fest. ;P

IV . Does your muse listen to music when studying? Why / why not?

Linast & Phosa:

They don’t tend to listen to music when they’re trying to learn something new; they both like to devote their full attention to new things. They may listen to music when interacting with things that they already understand, though. But at that point it’s not “studying.” xD

Diamond:

Definitely, yes. The right music can do a lot to help him focus, and if he knows a playlist well it can also help him keep track of time. He tends to hum along to anything that’s playing.

Clemcy:

Clemcy does like to keep quiet music going in the background, but he works as well without it as he does with it. 

.

Bonus:

Diamond likes music similar in sound to rock. Clemcy most definitely does not. When the two were working together, they had a low-key, mostly good-natured feud going on over whether or not to have music playing and whose music got played if so.

I’ve been putting together character playlists for my roleplay blog! Figure I’ll stick them over here as well.
