#brutus by the buttress is my favorite song on it though it's the only song that doesnt flow super well with the others but omg

[lostandbackagain]

I'm still on my china bullshit but a war-era show with china as the central character where we get to watch her drag herself out of her family's cult and go from terrorist to revolutionary then snap and get worse worse worse would do numbers I'm telling you

Songs the Ninjago Fandom is Sleeping on.

Okay so while I do art there's only so much my chronic pain ridden hands can produce and so animatics/animations aren't really in my wheelhouse BUT I have a bunch of ideas and songs that the Ninjago fandom should use + some ideas that yall can totally use (@ me or send them to me though if you do cause I want to see them)

The Songs in question (it's be song-artist btw):

Always Gold-Radical Face: Is literally a perfect song for Wu and Garmadon, like it's literally about two opposite brothers treading wildly different paths like what more could you want

Brutus- The Buttress: Yall please I am begging that someone does something with this song relating to Morro's hatred/jealousy towards Lloyd because this song is absolutely perfect for it! Lines such as "-and if you want I'll call you king but why do I lie awake each night thinking "instead of you it should be me"" and "Please know my actions are not motivated only by envy, I to have a destiny" there are so many more but I'll let yall do the rest of the work (Also you could kinda do it with Wu and Garmadon but ehhhh)

Human Enough- ONR: This could work for multiple of the characters if you ask me but if you ship anyone with Zane or Pixal the song could totally work those two them specifically cause it talks about the singers partner/love interest being "made perfect" and idk we need more Pixal content soooo. Honestly any of the characters that get de-human-ed (for longer than one episode) would do great with this song, like Cole in his ghost arc, Nya after Seabound or Garmadon at like any point in the story. Line examples: "Cause you are made of perfect stars and I was built from broken parts" and "I'm not human enough to love yo right now/ I'm not human enough to cry or cry for" are my personal favorites.

Laplace's Angel (Hurt People? Hurt People!)-Will Wood: Lloyd, Sora or Wu (Specifically the young version of him from the Spinjitzu Brothers books) song about the weight of the world being on your shoulders and not knowing what to do and like the consequences of actions and fun stuff like that

Easier- Crane Wives: Misako, like seriously so many Crane Wives songs work well for this woman because A) her whole attempt to change destiny or B) Her failure as a mother and you know the whole kinda cheating on her husband thing, but this one specifically cause it's a song about leaving someone behind and feeling bad while also not being able to stay. Lyrics such as "If you woke and I was gone from the house that we made our home would it bend yo, break you, overtake your heart?" and "I won't move but I can't stay here. So what the hell am I supposed to do?" and "If I were someone else, would this be easier?"

Stranglers Fig- This could definitely be a Cole (specifically relating to his father and dance backstory) or Kai song, many of the lyrics involve someone being pushed to do more and more and finally snapping because they've done everything they can and there's nothing left but their desire to be better. Lyrics "You bult your kingdom around me, now I'm trapped within your walls and all I want is to be free" and "Climb me to the canopy, higher, higher 'till there's nothing left of me." and "You're the culprit so don't blame me."

And that's all for tonight cause I'm tired BUT I will be posting a couple more of these cause I have a bunch of these floating in my brain and I'd love it if some of these idea's inspire people. I really wish I could do it myself but chronic pain is a bitch so instead I'll throw it out for yall to try out! Anyways I hope you have a great day/night! Peace out!

Prison duo playlist analysis day 7 - Brutus by The Buttress

YES I FINALLY GET TO YELL ABOUT THIS SONG! ME WHEN!

This is mostly gonna be me yelling about the season two prison arc and also probably corruption because wow I’m so normal about that specifically. From Icarus’s perspective mostly is what I’ve thought this through same as most things- though it could be corruption arc Centross too.

Starting off strong with

“I’ve been watching him for my entire life. I hate the air he breathes, his foolish decrees his words so contrived.”

They have known him throughout the first reset that they remember at that point- that being the only thing they remember from their life. They hate him- especially after they remember. They were fine around him before but when they remember their put straight back into the mindset the held during corruption and they hold so so much anger and resentment towards him. They don’t believe a word he says, he broke their trust no matter how little of it was real in the fist place. Why would he tell the truth now? They don’t believe him when he try’s to tell them Rae is sick- because their so sure that Rae would tell them even when they hadn’t fully earned that trust back yet because why would he tell the person who tried to kill everybody here over them?

“And I hate the way the townspeople gather outside. They cling on to every breath, cling to his chest. Home to his heart full of pride.”

Most people of not everyone have met Centross at this point- and most like him. Find him easy to hang out with or are just indifferent to him being there. Rae trusts him more than others, and if Centross said something most would probably believe him especially Rae at this point. Would people believe Icarus? Who’s to say- especially if Jamie and Athena remember. Athena I think trusts Centross more than Icarus with that memory. Easton I don’t know about- I think he would be able to tell if they were lying- but I don’t think he’d trust them so easily.

“The Oracle told him beware the Ides. And I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t wishing for untimely death or demise”

Mmmm. See if this was s3 “The Oracle told him beware the Ides” would be a great line.

I don’t remember off the top of my head if anyone except Centross himself was worried about visiting Icarus- so I can’t make the best connection here.

They would be wishing for his death- not exactly knowingly but they don’t want his here. They don’t want him to be around to hurt anyone anymore and the easiest way to do that would be for him to die. They don’t immediately want to do it themself- but they would be lying if they didn’t wish something would happen to him for what he’d done to the people they cared about- as well as what he’d done to them as much as they try to make it about everyone else.

“Or am I just wishing I could be like you? That the people would see me too as a poet, and not just the muse.”

THIS ONE. THIS IS WHY I SAY SEASON 2.

They wished they were like him in many ways in season one- he was Enderian’s favorite. Her speaker, her first choice. She talked to him the most. They wish NIW that they got the same level of trust and support from others he is getting, wishing they could walk around and not have to pretend they don’t notice the shifting feet and fearful glances when they talk to someone, pretend they don’t notice when Rae talks to them different after maybe a nightmare or something else that reminded him of them then. They wish it was like Centross- where he walks around freely and can gain the trust back of the other people on the server. What they don’t know is how he worked for it- he built that trust back and they haven’t taken the steps to do that yet.

“Oh it’s not true, I don’t wish harm upon you. From birth we’ve been like brothers of different mothers. Within the spirit of the same womb”

Even if they hate each other- they probably understand each other the most out of many of the characters on Fable. They’ve had experiences together through corruption and then have probably seen each other at their most vulnerable in both prison arcs- stretching into season 3 where there’s more trust and vulnerability for it to actually be a healthy exchange.

“May the gods strike me down if I forsake you. Frater meus, you’re beautifully made. And to you I’m forever grateful.”

Mmm. Me when. They didn’t want to hurt him at first- they just wanted to make sure he wouldn’t hurt anyone else.

He taught them a lot though season 1- I think. Just in their mental state really- even if it wasn’t a healthy environment they learned a lot about themself and what they were capable of specifically due to his help. He was part of the people who enabled them to do what they did- even if it was a bad thing. That turns into him enabling and helping them heal and do good later in season 2 and in season 3.

“You’re beautifully made” is a line for sure. Mhm.

“I’ll never forget that you showed me to make art. And I know the love you showered me came from a pure and noble heart. I love you, and if you want I’ll call you king. But why do I lay awake at night thinking instead of you it should be me?”

I don’t want to repeat myself- but same things as I said above he taught them a lot, as well as their respect for him vs their returned lingering hatred and resentment toward him wanting to be in the place he had been from season 1.

“something wicked this way comes. And as I’m set to face it, I’m unsure, should I embrace it? Should I run? What motivates me? Hatred? Is it love? What’s more wrong; that I too wish to be great, or my mother wished she’d had a son?”

Agh- me when. What’s more wrong; that I too wish to be great, or my mother wished she’d had a son?

Tell me that’s not so Icarus coded. Or my mother wished she’d had a son- because- was Icarus ever rally her son? She was their mother, yes, but Icarus was always Creations child. Always in fables shadow, his mini me, his perfect golden child that would do whatever he say. They looked like him too- the spitting image of their father taking on his temperament too.

Skipping a bit because- I’m so normal about this part-

“My name is Brutus and my name means heavy. So with a heavy heart, I’ll guide this dagger into the heart of my enemy. My whole life you were a teacher and friend to me. Please know that my actions are not motivated only by envy. I, too, have a destiny. This death will be art. The people will speak of this from near and afar. This event will be history, and I’ll be great too. I don’t want what you have- I want to be you!”

Oh me when they nearly kill Centross. I’m so incredibly normal. About that in particular.

“Please know that my actions are not motivated only by envy”

They didn’t just do this for what he’d done to them- at-least that’s what they tell themself- they do it to protect their family. The only people they care about that he hurt. Their actions are not only motivated by their care for what happened to them, but for what happened to the grove.

“I don’t want what you have- I want to be you!”

Now- contradictory to my last statement- this is about them. About the lingering mindset of corruption that has them in the same place of envy and anger and want that they were stuck in before. They want to be him now- wanting the respect of others like he had, wanting people to care about them in the same way- trust them and believe them the same way they do him. They want it to be easy- to not have to be looked at like they’re crazy or with pitiful gazes lines with fear and panic when the people they love look at them like they’re a monster.

“I always knew I could be the one. Though I feel the endless pain of being, and I am scorched by the sun. Of humble origins and born of the cursed sex. My name is Brutus but the people will call me Rex”

NOW THIS IS THE LINE IF BEEN THINKING ABOUT ALL DAY-

“My name is Brutus but the people will call me Rex”

They don’t know their name at this point so I am not going to say it here- but- “My name is Sherbert but the people will call me Creation(Creation’s child)” BECAUSE HEAR ME OUT- Fable was a military guy, he probably taught them a lot about war strategy as a child of them sitting in the war room as a little kid is anything to go by- and he’s a killer though they don’t know that yet. Following in their fathers footsteps, they’ll hurt the people they care about the most when trying to do something they deem as good for the people. Good for a kingdom, or good for the grove. And then end up with angry looks and sharp words that they didn’t want- that they did this to try and *avoid*

Just- me when they’re called Creation’s child and they follow so closely in his footsteps that sometimes it almost makes the lines blur between the two- even just in their tone of speech. Their tone of speech during the S2 arc and also the corruption arc nearly recreated Fables sharp and angry tones he speaks in and I just. Mm. This is all I’ve been thinking about right now.

That’s all I’ll say- I’ll cut myself off here but I have so many thoughts about this and the season 2 prison arc specifically- hence my whole playlist… it’s fine- I’m normal guys totally.

Anyways!

The image chosen from my prison duo Pinterest board today is-

I’ll leave it at that.

You are loved! Go take any meds if you need to and Go eat and drink water if you haven’t already today <3

Have a good rest of your day/night :]

[batz-zzz]

hello. kody and damien half brothers, yeah? take a badly written mini song take (could also be bright and fred but thats not what were talking about rn.)

from kodys perspective, making kody 'brutus'

this would be different from my other explanation, having damien be a friend instead of an aggressor to kody growing up. he was still born of a different mother, but sofia took him in and cared for him as her own. him and damien grew up together, although sofia stil favorited damien much more than kody

ive been watching him my entire life / i hate the air he breathes / his foolish decrees, his words so contrived / and i hate the way the townspeople gather outside / they hang on every breath / cling to his chest, home to his heart full of pride

very kodycore very jealous. perhaps jealous of all the praise damien gets from all the adults in their life, while kody seems to get none. this would obviously fester into feelings of hatred for damiens goals and ideals that everyone loved so much

the oracle told him to beware of ides / and id be lying if i said i wasnt wishing for untimely death or demise / or am i just wishing i could be like you? / that the people would see me, too, as a poet / and not just the muse

over time, his jealousy would fester into thoughts of hatred for damien as a person, instead of just his ideals. he does realize that its jealousy though, he isnt stupid

oh its not true, i dont wish harm upon you / from birth weve been like brothers of different mothers / within the spirit of the same womb / may the gods strike me down if i forsake you / frater meus, youre beautifully made / and to you im forever grateful

kody, feeling obvious guilt over holding this hatred for his brother and friend, recalls how close they truly are. how good damien truly is to him. one of the only people in his life that doesnt treat him as less.

ill never forget that you showed me to make art / and i know the love you showed me came from a pure and noble heart / i love you, and if you want, ill call you king / but why do i lie awake each night thinking / instead of you, it should be me?

thinking through all the things that damien has helped him through and taught him. being opposite elements, it obviously wasnt easy for damien to help, but he did. he helped and taught kody because he truly wants to best for him

and kody knows that

but he cant stand the way their mothers friends would look at him or they way he knew they talked about him while he wasnt around. the way all their other peers would rush to damien, hoping to befriend him and hanging off every word he says, while they stayed far from kody. there was always rumors spread about him, always starting with "my mother said ___" it wasnt fair. hes done nothing wrong, besides being born apparently. he should be the golden child- he should be the favorite for once

and yk. the rest of the song is about brutus murdering julius ceasar which is not what im thinking about currently but i definitely will think about at some point

[yourownsoulsscream]

🎶✨when u get this u have to put 5 songs u actually listen to, publish. then, send this ask to 10 of your favorite followers (non-negotiable, positivity is cool) 🎶✨

Oh? 😳 I'm one of your favorite followers? I- I'm actually so touched by that?? That's super cool. I do actually think you and your stuff is pretty cool too, so honestly I consider this quite the honor lol.

As for songs... I'm glad this doesn't ask for favorite songs cuz me and the concept of favorite things isn't a thing lmao. Actually listen to though? Uh, whatever I'm in the mood for/relevant to what I'm doing/story I'm brainstorming for.

So, with that said.

TL;DR version:

Labyrinth by Miracle Musical

I Got No Time, CG5 cover

Brutus by The Buttress

(Secret Bonus Song: Imposter by 1551)

Heartaches, Patsy Cline cover

Haunted Heart by Christina Aguilera

For further explanation (because oh god it go so long and wordy lmao I'm so sorry haha), under read more.

I know we both are anti-Loki series so how's this: I plan to eventually rewrite the Loki series as I would have liked to see it done. A song from that playlist that I feel best represents as a whole the vibe/story that I am planning is Labyrinth by Miracle Musical.

Honestly, I only mostly focus on my own version of Loki as an f/o along with my self-insert character Rose (a self-ship). I haven't written anything out yet (I plan to. One day, amirite lol) but I have playlists of different plot arc ideas as well as different aus (and boy oh boy do I got lots of aus lmao r.i.p. me) Recently, I've been really wanting to/planning to write a little something for Halloween. A human!au of Rose and Loki as teenagers (friends) who do ghost hunting. Mostly, bc Rose wants to do that and Loki just wants to hang with Rose so gets roped into it (the believer and the skeptic, if you were wondering). I'd go into it but basically things relationship-wise goes sideways, college is coming up and they go separate ways except Loki goes and spends 2 or 3 years and comes back to find out Rose disappeared just before college-time. And turns out she went ghost hunting just one last time and didn't return home. 👀 So Lokes and his new best friend, Amora (no romantic feelings, just buds) go do a little ghost hunting adventure all of their own and boy oh boy what do they find. 😏 For a song from Rose's perspective in this au story, I Got No Time covered by CG5.

I also want to write an au of (guess who) Rose and Loki with the monster hunter and monster romance trope. Inspired by Werewolf By Night, of course. With a frost giant-raised Loki, but still obviously has magic and shapeshifting abilities, including looking human. 😏😏😏 Also there's a lot more when it comes to the monster hunters in my story, but basically Rose is the daughter of one of the main families of this collection of monster hunters and Lokes is basically being an uncover spy, worming his way deeper and deeper into the monster hunter group so as to bring it down from the inside. And the best way he sees to accomplishing that end is romancing Rose, who's very clearly insecure and constantly desiring/seeking out her parent's affection/praise (aka an easy target of a weak link). Except, of course, how unfortunate that he ends up actually falling in love with her lmao. (Fake relationship turned real trope? Absolutely, sign me up. 😏) Anyway, a really good song I've found recently that really shows Rose's thoughts/feelings (of anger and jealousy) here when Loki shows ups and joins the group, quickly rising up the ranks and becoming an even better hunter than her (when she was already seen as top dog) is Brutus by The Buttress.

A Secret Bonus Song! Because I do really feel if you don't know about 1551 you really need to hear them. Also, especially, this song (Imposter) because it's so good! The little Among Us piano tune playing in the background. The little malevolent laugh. Mwah! So good.

I also have some other blogs not Loki or Marvel/MCU-related. One of them is BioFuckingShock. I've been making a secret little new Halloween theme for it. (Almost done, gonna change themes tonight so I don't really care if the cat's out the bag now.) On the theme, itself is a music player playing It's just a burning memory from The Caretaker's Everywhere at the End of Time. But before I chose that I made a whole little playlist of possibly eerie little songs that I could imagine playing and hauntingly echo throughout a little town. One of those songs is Patsy Cline's cover of Heartaches. I don't know. I just love it. The kinda groovy beat of the song while still being haunting. Good shit right there.

I also have a Haunted Mansion playlist for the blog I have for that stuff that I also haven't actually really used (lmao, I plan too, soon too, i swear haha 😥). But one of the songs I really like from that playlist is Haunted Heart by Christina Aguilera. So haunting yet the immense feeling of maliciousness just barely under the surface, like just a little twisted malicious grin/smile. If you know the vibes the Haunted Mansion gives, then you get it.

God, there's more songs too that I would just love to share. Partially, because I'm like I don't know if they know this song exists but they Should!! Partially, because I just actually wanna talk about my story ideas but ya know lmao that's a lot to just dump on a person, especially at once. 😂

But I do think this is a good cross-section of stuff, especially that's holding my attention right now. There's still other stuff but I'm not focused on those right now lol. Also, you asked for 5 songs not a million so, ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ maybe another time. (Look, you got one bonus song, let's not make it a billion more lol).
