I’m not bad, I’m not good. I drank every sky that I could. Made myself mythical, tried to be real. Saw the future in the face of a daffodil • daffodil by florence + the machine

He’ll blame the alcohol. And you’ll blame the full moon. She’ll blame the fall of man. And I’ll blame the evening news for giving us dooms day • fool’s gold by Lucy Dacus

I’m bending to the ground just to pick up little worms. And I have seen you relish such violence with a joy that I’ve only seen before in the little eyes of boys discovering their power for the first time • boys, bugs, and men by Paris Paloma

Calum Miller

I am one of those melodramatic fools. Neurotic to the bone, no doubt about it. Sometimes I give myself the creeps. Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me. It all keeps adding up. I think I’m cracking up. Am I paranoid or am I just stoned? • basket case by green day

this is like a massive post because this is also our final farnauld playlist that's made of four parts. it's meant to tell their full story <3 can't say we really expect anyone to read through this or even check the songs but if someone wants a really weird playlist, u can listen to it here xx

ACT I: WE JUST PLAY ALONG, COME ON, COME ON

001. TRY TRY TRY --- RACHAEL SAGE. 002. I’M NOT CALLING YOU A LIAR --- FLORENCE + THE MACHINE. 003. COME ON --- WHITE LIES. 004. ON DIRECTING --- TEGAN & SARA. 005. POISON --- VAULTS.  006. EVERY BREATH YOU TAKE --- DENMARK + WINTER. 007. CANDLES --- DAUGHTER. 008. WICKED TEETH --- CIARAN LAVERY. 009. AFFECTION --- AMBER RUN.

this is the part where they get together. they're off-balance. he's playing his own game and she's trying to make everything work together. this is the first time cracks begin to form within the croÿ ranks. this part of the playlist is a mixture of songs that are fairly dark. the most notable lyrics can be found in ' poison ': " we both know you're sweet and blind / palm struck on the floor // won't you let me poison your heart ? ". isa posted this part of the playlist years ago and it's here x.

ACT II: THERE'S HISTORY IN A SCAR

010. PURGE --- ALLIE X. 011. WE USED TO LAUGH / 9 TO 9 --- FLORA CASH. 012. HYENA --- THE EDITORS. 013. LIFFEY --- PILLOW QUEENS. 014. SPIDERS --- THE EDITORS. 015. TIME COMES IN ROSES --- BESS ATWELL. 016. I'M NOT YOURS --- ANGUS & JULIA STONE. 017. PETRICHOR --- KEATON HENSON.

this would be the post-break up era. their numerous conversations and arnauld's relentless bullying. the wounds were raw, incredibly so and arnauld had a need to show her the mistake she had made by cutting him so. fanni on the other hand struggled between feeling proud of her decision and knowing she had let go of more than just a person she loved: it was the opportunity to build a life outside of her family. both of them tormented each other just by existing. it was difficult to hate someone you loved. it was difficult to despise someone you had known so well. the sensitivity eventually made space for some sort of a relationship. they could hold conversations. they could blackmail each other and remind the other how deep their knowledge of the other went. the first two songs most certainly represent fanni and her struggles. in ' purge ' we get the lines: " you went anyway, but all of your chains / and ropes holding me stayed in place " and " every word you told me left such a rancid taste in my mouth / i can't purge you ". we had ' we used to laugh / 9 to 9 " on every edit back in 2019. it was such a perfect song for them at that time. " you said i won't ever leave your side no one else is worth my while no one else is worth my while were you like that all the time ? did you repeat this from 9 to 9 ? never come back never come back you put a hole in and opened up my heart put me down in my darkest dark we used to laugh we used to laugh " then we have the editors songs that got chosen for the darkness. arnauld was doing his best to get fanni to beg for forgiveness. the bitterness was felt constantly. ' liffey ' on the other hand is arnauld's realization that he's not in charge of himself or the situation. he is absolutely ruined and she holds far too much power — it's not just arnauld who knows secrets and ways to manipulate the other, fanni's just as capable !

ACT III: WHEN I LOSE MY HEAD, I LOSE MY SPINE

018. COOL ABOUT IT --- BOYGENIUS. 019. LUCKY FOR YOU --- NOVO AMOR, GIA MARGARET. 020. I MISS YOU, I'M SORRY --- GRACIE ABRAMS. 021. DAYDREAMS --- EXES. 022. SEABED --- NANNA. 023. LATE NIGHT TALKS --- DEPORTEES. 024. HEAVENLY --- CIGARETTES AFTER SEX 025. HOPELESS WANDERER --- MUMFORD & SONS. 026. THAT'S WHEN ( TV ) --- TAYLOR SWIFT.

this part is about their healing journey. when the mind games stopped. when it was just two people. a fairly wholesome part in their story. they had affection for one another and perhaps for the first time they did not have some role to play. it was just friendship ( or at least as platonic a relationship as it could be between these two ). some codependency issues existed, of course. fanni needed a shoulder. arnauld liked being needed by her. ' late night talks ' is possibly the most spot on song in part iii. in it we get: " the phone rings / in the middle of the night / i can tell you're upset / i'm here / and i'm ready to work ". ' seabed ' is incredibly touching too and probably our favourite track. it's a good peek into fanni's fragile state of mind. " and you caught me off guard, and / i was never lonely / but now i'm feeling like an only child / let me sink into you arms / you're the ocean floor / i guess i just needed that ". the songs in this section are vulnerable and beautiful. ' lucky for you ' has a line that made it earn its spot: " and i'm not what i thought i would be without you ".

ACT IV: I'VE OUTGROWN THE PAST

027. I WANT YOU --- MO. 028. YOU'RE SO COOL --- NICOLE DOLLANGANGER. 029. LIGHTS CHANGING COLOR --- STARS. 030. LIVING ROOM, NY --- LAURA STEVENSON. 031. SIGNAL FIRE --- SNOW PATROL. 032. BLOODCLOT / ANDVAKA --- NANNA. 033. CRACK THE SHUTTERS --- SNOW PATROL. 033. SEND FOR ME --- THE NATIONAL. 034. THIS LAND IS MINE --- DIDO. 035. THIS LOVE (TV) --- TAYLOR SWIFT. 036. I WILL FOLLOW YOU INTO THE DARK --- MIYA FOLICK. 037. COSMIC LOVE --- FLORENCE + THE MACHINE. 038. SHALLOWS --- DAUGHTER.

this is the happily-ever-after part because they've been so sad for such a long time. we seriously considered not having them end up together but they deserve each other <3 <3 this section has love songs but we managed to sprinkle a few darker ones too because fanni and arnauld have never been simple and sweet. ' this love ' is probably the stand out song, it seems so fitting ! i mean c'mon: " this love is alive back from the dead / these hands had to let it go free, and / this love came back to me ". not to make things too cheesy though we have ' lights changing color ', which is by no means a negative song but it's more about staying out of one's head and, well, happy ! " when you find that the ones that keep you lifted / love them 'cause they keep you out of your head / they keep you out of your head / they keep you steady ". the songs are quite mellow and sound pretty fragile in a sense, save for a few tracks. the last two songs are more abstract. ' cosmic love ' is possibly one of the most beautiful songs on this playlist and to ever exist. i can see their devotion to each other growing into something blinding. this maybe relates to fanni more, she seems more likely to make love and her life with arnauld the only thing she surrounds herself with. there's just that and nothing else. but... arnauld is not too far from this state. he'll be able to reason with himself and he has his duties, but considering how recklessly he acts all things fanni... " i took the stars from my eyes and then i made a map / and knew that somehow i could find my way back / then i heard your heart beating, you were in the darkness too / so i stayed in the darkness with you... " the playlist ends with ' shallows ' because it was so serene. serene and hauntingly beautiful. it's a sister-song to ' i will follow you into the dark '. when one parts from this world, will the other come find them when it's time ?

THIS BROKEN JAW OF OUR LOST KINGDOMS

A playlist for Sharon Kay Penman's Welsh Princes Trilogy {Here Be Dragons, Falls The Shadow, The Reckoning}

"She must not laugh. If she did, she'd not be able to stop. Like her mother. So many years ago, but Joanna could still hear her, hear peal after peal of that shrill, hysterical laughter as her mother looked at her, at her bastard child, her 'mistake.' We pay and pay for our sins, she'd gasped. We pay and pay."

CUSTOM ORDER

#009-26

0:00 |───────── 3:19

Mr. Morana: Harley. Sit.

[SOUNDS OF A CHAIR SCRAPING AGAINST HARDWOOD FLOORS.]

Mr. Monara: I'm sure you know why I called you in here.

Harley: I don't.

Mr. Monara: Don't play coy, Harley. You're thirteen years old, you know why you're in here.

Harley: I'm sorry, Sir, but I insist I don't.

Mr. Monara: [Sighs] You're in here due to the fight that broke out between Gavin, Florence, and Mrs. Hart.

Harley: The fight that I wasn't involved in?

Mr. Monara: You have a very powerful gift, Harley. One that people would love to have — to know the future and exactly how it plays out.

[MR. MONARA PAUSES, BEFORE SIGHING AND CONTINUING.]

Mr. Monara: Due to your gift, you should have known that those two students were going to start a fight with Mrs. Hart and send her to Dr. Brown. Due to your lack of communication towards me or one of the other staff, you are being punished with the other two students.

Harley: What? That's not even fair! I didn't do anything, that's not even how my gift works and you know it!

Mr. Monara. Don't give me that attitude, Harley. You know you were as much at fault as Gavin and Florence.

Harley: I didn't know that was going to happen, you can't—

Mr. Monara: [Sternly] You don't have any say in this, Harley. Have you not been working on your special gift, then? You should have been able to see this coming, leaving me with one of two options. One: You knew this was going to happen, and decided to not do anything—

Harley: [Overlapping] But I didn't!— You can't fault me for—

Mr. Monara: [Overlapping] —Or two: you haven't been training on your gift like you've been expected too, leading to this lack of commitment.

Harley: [Overlapping] —This! I wasn't involved!

Mr. Monara: I am not going to sit here and listen to any of your excuses. If you're going to insist on lying on top of all of this, you know the punishment will only worsen. I really do not wish to get Ella involved in this mess.

Harley: [Darkly] You're not going to hurt her.

Mr. Monara: Oh, I'm not? What are you going to do about it? You were doing so well during these recent years. I don't want to have to put "threatening a staff member directly" next to the "took part of a ruse to harm a staff member indirectly" in your file.

Harley: Fuck your files! [Chair scraping — Harley has suddenly stood up] I don't care!  You're not going to do anything!

Mr. Monara: Sit down, Harley. Act your age. You're better than this.

Harley: Fuck this! Fuck all of this! You know — why can't we ever leave this place, huh? Why do you keep us trapped here like fucking animals? Is that what we are to you?!

[MR. MONARA SITS SILENTLY, BEFORE A BUTTON IS PRESSED WITH A LITTLE "DING" SOUND.]

Mr. Monara: Ms. Katz, could you come to my office, please? Code four-three.

Ms. Katz: (Through some sort of communication device) On my way, Sir.

Harley: What did we ever do to you?! We didn't ask for these "gifts"! No one actually wants these stupid powers, and what happens to the people when they turn sixteen, huh? We're not stupid, we notice that they're missing!

[A DOOR OPENS SUDDENLY]

Ms. Katz: Sleep. 

[THE ATMOSPHERE SHIFTS INSTANTLY.]

[HARLEY IS QUIET.]

Mr. Monara: [Sighing] Thank you, Jen. I should have had you in the room with me — Harley's always proven as a… difficult, case. 

Ms. Katz: It's alright, Sir. At least he didn't try to activate his gift.

Mr. Monara: He knows it wouldn't have done him any good. His gift isn't useful for offenses. Hell, it's barely a defensive gift. But it's one of the most informational ones we've created. 

Ms. Katz: I'm surprised that you're even willing to sell this one. Are you sure you can't keep it? I'm sure it'll prove its worth in the long run. 

Mr. Monara: Even though Harley would prove to be a good ally, I cannot risk that. His gift — it was a… custom order, you could say. We will be given good money once this subject gets shipped out. 

Ms. Katz: Right. I understand. Now, could you help me carry the subject to its room, Mr. Monara?

Mr. Monara: [Fondly] Yes, of course. Anything for you, Ms. Katz.

who: @florencehightower​ where: further north, with the reach search party

the wind howled, enough that cedric tyrell was sure it blended easily with the sounds of the howling direwolves of the wild north. the wall had been left behind, and with it the last of any sense of normalcy; this land now belonged to the wildlings, and whatever else lurked within the thick woods of what they had called the haunted forest. and whilst the snow was regular and heavy, it was the piercing wind that caused a shudder to the very core of the bone. their tent had been pinned down with iron nails, further helped by placing some rocks around to keep it in place, and yet there was no denying the fact the weather conditions were the worst they had been since leaving.

he heard the distant sound of his wife's breath as she fell in and out of sleep, the sound being of a strange comfort as though it helped centre his own thoughts, however at this point he had realised that these conditions were dangerous. perhaps beyond what any of them understood, due to their own homeland being of warm, mild climate. 

"florence." he called, his tone low as he moved to lean down beside her,  resting a hand on the palm of her freezing hand; whilst he had slept in similar conditions when travelling with mathis rowan, this was another matter entirely. he thought it dangerous, how the body could shut down under the cold. "fucking hell, you're freezing." he spoke, concern and exhaustion filling his voice as he pulled his own blanket over her, sitting in the space beside her, ensuring she was wrapped up enough. "why didn't you say anything?"

[benjamin-hastings]

CLOSED START FOR: @flohastings​ LOCATION: snugglebunny boutique, bayview

“Y’know, all I’m saying is I’ll pay for the fancy stroller if you want the fancy stroller.” Benji offered casually as they strolled around the insanely overpriced baby boutique. He vaguely remembered having gone with Katie to Babys-R-Us back before Connor was born, but that had been a blur of anxiety over what products had the best safety reviews and blah, blah, blah. Now he could have fun, because he was helping Flo shop for his future niece or nephew. “The question is kind of, just, where’s the nursery gonna be, right? Like, are you planning on bringing this lil dude back to casa del Benji, or are you, uh, y’know... Doing something different?” Benji didn’t know how to delicately ask such a question. He loved having his sister under his roof, so did Annie, and having a baby there would be a thrill for everyone. But whether or not that was Flo’s ultimate plan or desire was, naturally, up to her.

SONGS TO WRITE MY MUSE !!    

001 :  CARRY ON WAYWARD SON by Neoni (cover)

Carry on my wayward son For there'll be peace when you are done  Carry on, you will always remember Carry on, nothing equals the splendor Now your life's no longer empty Surely heaven waits for you

Reminiscent of Ornstein’s painfully idealised image of his mother; a memory associated with his own unforgiving determination to strive. To live. A never-ending journey. A permanent fight. Oh, but she would be so proud of him...  or so he likes to think.

002 :  HYAKKIN  (Mezame no Hakobune) by Kenji Kawai

A storm, a rolling thunder Dark clouds in the sky  Now, at this night of awe It is time to depart from the past

The war against the Everlasting Dragons was never the seamless, painless, overwhelming victory the Gods would later use as their proof of divine might and main source of political power. This was a fight that took so many lives, required so many sacrifices, it seemed dragons could never be defeated... not even by the power of the Light. 

For Ornstein, the war is an experience that changes him in every possible way. Fighting means not only strengthening his body, but also his mind and soul. The great Arts used by the God of War’s Dragonslayers cannot be replicated, for one needs to develop a deeper understanding of the world itself; of the Flame, in order to harness its true power.  

003 :   RIP & TEAR by Mick Gordon.

There is a reason why he earned the epithet of Lion Knight. The God of War’s Chosen One; his First Knight, should be no less than a devastating force in battle. For all Ornstein’s exquisite skill and finesse, the way in which he spills his enemies’ blood is relentless and brutal.

004 :   IBUKI by Yoshida Kyōdai

Yet there is also a place for joy and true beauty in his heart --- well-hidden, like a treasure reserved only to himself.

005 :   GOD’S GONNA CUT YOU DOWN  by Blues Saraceno (cover)

You can run on for a long time Run on for a long time Sooner or later, God'll cut you down

Anyone opposing the Gods will perish, sooner or later. Yet those who pose a real threat; corrupting their nations and inciting rebellion against Anor Londo’s absolute power, they will face utter annihilation at the hands of Lord Gwyn’s Champion.

006 :   BLINDING CONTROL  by Halsey + the Machine (Mashup of Blinding by Florence + the Machine, and Control by Halsey)

I can't help this awful energy God damn right, you should be scared of me Who is in control? 

An even less gentle version of this song. The Dragon Slayer commands respect, instilling awe and dread. Yet there's always a sense of painful fragility to him... perfectly concealed under a stoic facade. 

007 :  GOTTA KNOCK A LITTLE HARDER by The Seatbelts. 

Happiness is just a word to me And it might've meant a thing or two If I had known the difference

Closing his heart to everything and everyone, focusing solely on duty and what seemed lofty ideals, finally takes its toll on him. Anor Londo still endures, holding onto the Lord's ultimate sacrifice. However, the shadow of a doubt threatens Ornstein’s heart --- and he starts realising, slow and reluctant, he’s built his own cage.

008 :   STAY ALIVE by Hidden Citizens

Should the lion say his grace When he takes his mark? I do what I need to What I have to To survive Well, you can try To be civilized But I'm gonna stay alive Yeah, I’m gonna stay alive

Ornstein’s survival instinct is ferocious. Implacable. He’s learned to turn it into ruthless determination and cruel pragmatism. Now, he’ll use it to overcome his own endless sorrow, guilt and bitter regret, and thus make a most difficult decision. He returns Lord Soul Shard and knightly Leo Ring to the Dark Sun, choosing to keep only his armour and weapon; gifts not from the Father, but the Son. Once he’s out of Anor Londo, he’s ready to face the hostile agony of the world, completely on his own.  A lion clad in gold is still a lion.

009 :  SUNLIGHT by Hozier.

But whose heart would not take flight Betray the moon as acolyte On first and fierce affirming sight of Sunlight, sunlight, sunlight! 

I had been lost to you, sunlight

The last place where Sunlight exists. Truly so. A sanctuary for his ancient enemies; the dragons. The abode of his lost first Lord. No. Of his first and only companion. It was a long and difficult journey, leading to a bitter-sweet reunion. Nothing between them has ever been easy... yet it seems some bonds are stronger than betrayal and resentment.

010 :   BLUE  by the Seatbelts

Asked myself what it's all for You know the funny thing about it I couldn't answer No I couldn't answer 

Feels so free Gotta be free Please

A requiem. Yet it’s not a bad end. Despite pain and exhaustion, Ornstein realises the past doesn’t feel like such a burden. He finally comes to terms with his own life --- the good and the bad. Thus, he accepts death as a consequence of his own actions. Death will be both; a price to pay and definite relief. And none of it haunts him. Not anymore.

At the end of his journey there was nothing but an empty space, a vast land with emptiness. And he finally understood that the journey was himself, his life and how he had lived.
