#brit rambling unnecessarily again?

5 SONGS THAT REMIND YOU OF YOUR MUSE. 

you guys didn’t ask for explanations but its me so of course I’m giving explanations anyways. they’re not strictly in order, just some of the top ones.

Gambling Man by Overtones Not because its ABOUT Sigma but the heavy casino vibes & theme obviously make me think of our favorite manager just by association. But also Luck is a heavy theme with Sigma, especially as the manager when people don’t know he’s in the Decay of Angels and think he’s innocent.

Casuality by Hidden Citizens Especially in light of the recent events? The themes of being another casualty in the ongoing power struggle and wars between factions. Sigma was wholeheartedly going to accept being a casualty when trying to take down the Hunting Dogs, and then with Atsushi scene, and now in meursault? ESPECIALLY FOR THE LINE ‘Know I’ve been here before’ because Nikolai saved him to use his ability just like other people used him for his ability. Here’s the difference. Fyodor offered a DEAL. Nikolai is like you WILL do this :) I cannot state enough how much of a difference this is, especially to Sigma who has been treated like a tool his whole life. A DEAL means a lot to him.

Watch Me Now -  The Phantoms This one might come as a surprise. But I LOVE this one for how Sigma presents himself as the casino manager, and how he’s really blossomed. Sigma telling everyone to watch him, watch what he can do. He went from being a nameless person being trafficked and used all the time to owning the aerial casino, which people would never think he was capable. Sigma lifting his chin to the world and telling it to WATCH HIM. Watch how he gets up and fights despite how the world has kicked him over and over again and tried to break him. Watch him THRIVE. 

Shape of my Heart by Sting  Again, card themes play a lot here for the association. But the song places emphasis of the heart suits over the spades, clubs, or diamonds, because the heart is about EMOTION. The casino isn’t about glamor for sigma. It’s about his HEART, of having a place to belong. The song discusses gambling to FIND something. For Sigma, it’s finding himself, or rather, trying to figure out how he fits into this world he feels alienated from 

Fall from the Sky by Arilena Ara I love love love the themes of flying and falling in this song. It fits SO well for early Sigma, both when he was still captured but also when he was taken in by Fyodor and Nikolai and he was learning how to ‘fly’. Because before that, his wings were held back, words hurt him bad, but he kept it all inside, he STILL keeps his suffering inside tbh. But even though he falls time and time again, he always ends up reaching to the sky because he’s destined to fly. Even when he’s beaten down again, when he has to question everything, even when he’s close to breaking, he keeps going. His HEART survives, battered and bruised but still there.

 Also just as a joke can I say poker face and gimme more. there were so many jokes / edits in the beginning when he was first dropped in 2019, i can find them for you guys if you want but it crosses my mind honestly. There’s a few greek songs too but those are more for ships than individual.

SO GUYS. I FINISHED III

GOD DAMN DO I HAVE THOUGHTS GUYS. but i'll just cover things i think are relevant to the doodles i made afterwards. if you have any questions on my thoughts on things i wouldn't be impartial to asks or replies to the post :3 i just need to rant for a minute im so mentally ill please

knife is only there because my friend watched ii s2 and he LOVES knife and i was like. word. hes awesome so i drew knife for him

HOOO BOY OKAY nickel and balloon. it was a bumpy ride fellas. going immediately from s2 where nickel was kinda a POS to s3 where they suddenly became acquaintances was a little weird to me. (especially in that one episode where silver & candle interrogate nickel about baseball. no suitcase mention?? huh???) but it was cool to see their journey! the buddy-buddy thing seemed weird throughout earlier episodes because in s2 balloon and nickel kinda hated each other's guts so i'm glad that was covered in a later episode and that their friendship was actually solidified. BUT that doesn't leave nickel off the hook if he dont march his ass up to suitcase and say sorry the minute they go back to season 2 i'm gonna have a WORD with that boy

BOT!!! OH BABY BOT they are SO adorable and i loved the reveal that they were a robot! i was so mystified on how bow was magically alive at the beginning and seeing that it was just a product of tt and fan's grief was very heartbreaking... but seeing bot evolve into their own person was genuinely so so so beautiful and the representation for queer folks is done very gracefully and it's very wholesome. seriously im not even trans and i was tearing up like a little bitch y'all. fan and test tube are the parents ever it's so cute and they are the cutest fam ever

silver spoon and candle.... hrrrmmm you are certainly funny little guys.... i would like to put you in a jar and study you.... their sudden intense craving for winning was a little jarring but their dynamic is funny. i didn't like silver much at first but he def grew on me especially in the finals, and candle's friendship with yinyang was really cute too (still bawling he got out i really grew to love him.) AND dont think i didnt see ur blushing in ep 17 silver. im onto you

i already covered bot but i just needed to say their friendship with painty is the BEST THING and for some reason painty just stating they were nonbinary made me unnecessarily happy like YES KING (NONGENDERED) GO LIVE UR TRUTH WE LOVE YOU

cabby... oh you are an interesting little gal. i saw her design before ever watching iii and i was like wow! what a critter! but i'll be so honest at first i didn't like her because her information obsessed demeanor seemed very cold and calculating to me (and i'm so biased for fan and tt so when she got them out i was like. Girl.) but now that i understand her whole character arc, how she learned that its not always about the "facts" and how to lean on people, it was really heartwarming and shes rly grown on me. im a cabby appreciator

blueberry's whole fiasco was interesting. errrrrm u tried buddy that's all i gotta say. respect the hustle man

AND FLOORY IS THERE TOO i love him he's in the club of my favorite brits he's a silly guy

okay. if you read this far i'm so proud of you. also the whiteboard doodle was before i finished the series LMAOOOO um hope u enjoy that. thanks for reading my insane ramblings it might happen again i am not sorry
