#and the day songs I like don't make it onto chara playlists is the day I die

[line-of-fire]

Trying to get back into the writing groove tonight (for real this time!), doing some bio reworking and listening to music and whatnot and. Lemme just say.

There's something about Billy Talent and their music that just screams to me that Pixie (specifically in the Dead Fae Walking verse) would consider them one of her favorite bands. Specifically Billy Talent III album-wise. And even more specifically, she's only been listening to them for a few years at this point.

She had known of them in the past, possibly heard of them through her sister that enjoyed their music, but could never really get into them. Didn't hate them, just didn't fully Vibe with any of their songs. Not until after 2018 anyways when she stumbled back upon them. And at that point, with all that she went through, a lot of those songs really just hit differently for her when she rediscovered them.

This song specifically was the one that first stood out to me as fitting Pixie, specifically her grief for what used to be and the people she can no longer be with. There's other ones that have made it onto her playlist, this was just the first. And it's one that really does resonate with her.
