A post-canon, pre-reunion No. 6 playlist for Shion. This playlist follows Shion from the end of Volume 9, through Beyond, until just before he reunites with Rat. It concludes right before the events of my story, Summer Rain.
In the Country - La Luz There isn't one thing that I wouldn't do for you Why leave?
Good Grief - Dessa But I’m willing to work for this Just show me where to dig And I’m ready to hurt for this
I Don't Trust U Anymore - Left at London As a kid, I was idolizing millionaires and all the presidents But I don't trust them anymore No way, no way, no, not again And I may never trust at all No way, no way, I'm over them
Working for the Knife - Mitski I always thought the choice was mine And I was right, but I just chose wrong I start the day lying and end with the truth That I'm dying for the knife
Glass House - Screaming Females Whose house is this? A gift was promised Future structures till we all vanish
The Center Won't Hold - Sleater-Kinney I need a real affliction Gives me a reason to stay I need a new reflection Don't wanna see my face
Fear the Future - St. Vincent When the Earth split in two I was I, you were you I run for you Run for me, too
Kokomo, IN - Japanese Breakfast God, I wish we could go back there Left alone in my room I know they deserve you too And maybe I'm not that worthy
#no. 6#no.6 novel#no. 6 shion#no.6 shion#nezushi#More description:#In Beyond we see that Shion is super depressed and we see him make a power grab#so this is about his journey from grief over Safu's death and Rat's departure to trying to do the work on the Restructuring Committee#but eventually realizing that they're STUCK in old patterns all the other cities suck too so there is no just future in reform#1 is the end of Vol 9 where - why can't we just make this into somewhere we can both live#2 is about Shion trying to work through his grief re Safu (and Rat leaving) to do the work of “restructuring”#3 is his motivation for breaking shit down and “restructuring”#4-6 about realizing that “restructuring” is insufficient because all the city-states are fundamentally exploitative#7-8 are about essentially giving up and desperately wanting to see Rat again#And some extraneous info...#1 La Luz is a Seattle based all-women group and their instrumentals are HYPNOTIC imo#2 Good Grief seems really good for Shion dealing with losing Safu and not having time to process until way after#3 re the l@l song I feel like shion is like ok nezumi told me not to change but i also can't trust anything i ever learned before this#i know shion did not idolize the president but he was TAUGHT to do that and the point is he doesn't know where to look for guidance bc#Rat is gone. but like also i wonder if he's like wow i've basically just been dumped fuck the world#Left at London is a trans woman who sings about cool shit like taking down the government so she had to be here#4 i feel like after he kicks Yomin off the RC he's probably like that was for sure the wrong decision and also i should have gone with my b#also i love mitski and was deciding btw this one & Nobody#5 this is like extreme disillusionment. we were supposed to be doing something good but it's all still rotten!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#screaming females is also all women and so are the next ones so this is unintentionally an all women playlist haha#6 i love sleater-kinney and i feel like this fits shion well bc he was sort of everyone's light and now he's like never smiling#(per Karan in his Beyond chapter)#7 is so relatable. like please just tell me what's coming next!!!!#8 is the long distance theme song fr + i love japanese breakfast

#yun jin!? (playlist and specific song // nobody - mitski)
yun jin's always so exhausted. it feels like everything she does is judged by all of liyue, and to be frank, she isn't wrong. being a famous opera singer, she has to maintain her face, weight, public image, and more. you can't blame her for being tired, can you?
however, it's been rough these past few weeks. she's got a big show coming up, and has been stress eating because of it. a few haters of hers came up to her, calling her fat. she clearly didn't pay any mind, at least that's what you thought.
after shooing them away, you gently took her hand and guided her to your shared home. you surely didn't expect her to fall down right as you got home. tears slipped from her eyes, and you immediately kneeled down to her side. in a desperate attempt to hide her hurt from you, she immediately tried to stop the tears. her hands moved frantically across her face, desperate to wipe the hurt from her entire body, until she was stopped.
gently grabbing her hands so as not to startle her, you carefully hold her hands in yours. her eyes shone brightly in the reflecting sunlight seeping through the windows as she shot her head up to look at you, face twisting in despair.
leaning in to give her a hug, she began to cry. she cried for what seemed like hours, screaming sad "im trying so hard!"s and "why can't they see im trying my best!?"s at no one in particular, yet still clinging to your shirt and staining it in her tears.
pulling her closer, she continued to cry. her desperate and despair-filled shrieks eventually turned to soft and thankful sobs as she began to thank you for listening.
months upon months of bottled-up emotions unraveled like a storybook before your very eyes, and it almost angered you that she'd kept all of this stress and feelings from you.
just twirl her hair, rub her back, or just hold her. give her all of the love and affection she needs. tell her that she's not fat, and that you'll love her no matter her weight. tell her that you'll never ridicule or judge her, and make her feel like the only woman that matters in the world. shower her in so much love that she drowns in it, relishes it, and soaks it in.
don't make her feel like your girlfriend, make her feel like your yun jin. your beautiful yun jin. :>
#shenhe!? (playlist and specific song // another love - tom odell)
it'd been such a long day. all you wanted was to lay with shenhe, and you did. it was around 11:00pm when you got home, and your darling shenhe stayed up to make sure you were alright.
slowly climbing into bed with her, you two cuddled up to each other instantly. sleeping with shenhe was always a joy, so was so soft. so warm. so gentle. so perfect.
drifting off to sleep, you held onto her waist tightly, almost afraid that if you let go, your beautiful woman would walk away to no return.
it wasn't until around 3am that shenhe began to breathe heavily. she was having another one of her nightmares, an occasional occurrence. she began violently tossing and turning, sweating, and talking. so much so that she woke you up, and you knew what to do. a gentle wake-up and some water would usually help, so you got up and rushed off to grab shenhe some water before waking her. as you reentered your shared bedroom, you realized that this time was different. shenhe was different.
she was gasping for air, moving and panting violently. shaking her awake, her eyes widened and she pushed you away. cool drops of sweat cascaded down her forehead, and tears littered her pretty face. her clothes were all bunched up, and it hurt to see her like this. it'd always hurt you to see shenhe sad, but she looked horrified. she began to sob, grasping the bedsheets and burying her face in them. her sobs turned to screams, screams turned to cries. you could do nothing but watch as traumatic memories flashed through her brain, putting her through all that hurt all over again.
you could do nothing but gently attach yourself to her, and whisper words of reassurance. you could do nothing but softly rub her head and back and she sobbed and shrieked into your shoulder, staining your shirt with her tears that glistened in the moonlight.
her hair was disheveled, her clothes bunched up, and she looked like a mess. anyone else would've said she looked hideous, but not you.
never you.
she wanted you there, she needed you there, because no one else had ever been there for her.
and you'll stay there with her, won't you?
forever?
promise?
