Ask time ✨

Can you assign your favourite song(s) to your favourite character(s)? And, if you want, say why do you think that song is them? (vibe and style can be enough, you don't have to worry about the lyrics :3 So if there's a song that reminds you of a certain character, but the lyrics don't suit them, then don't worry about it :3 I know that sometimes the melody suits someone but the lyrics not always, so please feel free to go with your feelings <3)

Okay so I have a few folk songs in mind that I associated with yttd characters. Some of these are not my fave characters and some are not my fave songs but I think they fit each other

Firstly Sara and Joe with "Несе Галя воду" ("Halya/Galya carries water"). This song is about a couple (or a girl and guy who have feelings for each other) where girl doesn't respect the boy initially and after he expresses his dissapointment she asks him to come back, promising to respect him. The boy answers that no matter how many times he came back, she didn't respect him. Sara didn't show much respect toward Joe in the first chapter, during his introduction she didn't even said he was her friend (it was clear that they were good friends but I always thougth she was a bit rude to him at first). But after Joe dies Sara is haunted with guilt. Of course she'd want for him to come back... Maybe I simplified the theme of song but it's so beautiful. I don't even ship Sara and Joe but the pain is the same

One more Joe song is "Cotton eye Joe". It's energetic, funny and "where did you go?" makes me think about him again. I imagine some funny yttd videos where Sara's hallucinations appear to this song

One song that made me think of Shin is "При долині кущ калини" ("Bush of viburmun near the meadow"). This song is about viburnum that was taken by a Cossack because he liked it. He wanted to plant this bush in his garden but didn't take it the full way, abandoned it in the field and thought it would wilt. But the bush didn't die and continues to bloom. I think it is an analogy for a girl that had toxic/abusive relationship with her boyfriend but persisted. And that is why I thought of Shin. Midori liked him in his own way, took him under his wing but ultimately left him. There is also a line about sun above her shining on her and like Hiyori means sunny weather. Shin took this "sunny" behavior of his "friend" and copied it in the death game. I'd imagine Shin's redemption leitmotive to be something like this

There are other songs I like but I don't really tie them to particular characters. Like "The last dance" by Indila (maybe Nao would fit but dunno. She truly had the last dance in the death game and faded away). Or "Hey Sokoły" (I imagine Alice singing it though. He gives me the vibes. Also Sebastian from Ace attorney because his localised name is Eustace which I changed to Stas/Stasik which is a form of Stanislaw and finally I decided that he's a Pole).

Or there are soundtracks I associate with some of them. Foe example, the orchestral version of fairy dust (alternative version of it) from Winx reminds me of Kanna. So youthfull, yet tragic. Sacrifice of a little girl which shouldn't have happened but at least it's beautiful. I imagine Kanna's enchantix transformation specifically with this song

Or Shin and Spazzmatica Polka/Pixel Peeker Polka purely for style. I feel like it's a bit techy and simple in a good way. And outside of death game Shin is just an ordinary guy. Maybe the song sounds too cheerful in comparison to Shin but welp I want this guy to be happy for once

Also Keiji and "Dancing Polish Cow". Depression masked with funny memey cow. He drank a lot due to his trauma but tries to appear this calm slightly frivolous man

Finally, Kai and "Home" from Undertale. Calming, cosy soundtrack where you feel like at home. Something Kai really wanted

Hey, sokoły

Не могу остановиться её слушать

[septembriseur]

Żal, żal za dziewczyną (Sorrow, sorrow for that girl)

Za zieloną Ukrainą, (For green Ukraine)

Żal, żal, serce płacze (Sorrow, sorrow, my heart is crying)

Już jej więcej nie zobaczę. (I will never see her again)

Hej, hej, hej sokoły! (Hey, hey, hey, falcons!)

Omijajcie góry, lasy, doły. (Fly past mountains, forests, valleys)

Dzwoń, dzwoń, dzwoń dzwoneczku (Ring, ring, ring bell)

Mój stepowy skowroneczku (My lark of the steppe)

[guardianoftheotherside]

Ok here's one...

What would the horsemen do if there human friend spoke another language but being angry or sad or even being happy (for example your's), would the horsemen ask for some human native language arts teachings so they can learn how to speak like them or just have a simple conversations with said language after being taught?

I’m writing this for Polish language, because it is mine national language and easier for me to writing.

War: This horsemen be a little suprised that humans can talk in language other than English. If his human friend said something like- Zamknij kurwa ryj ( translate: Shut the fuck up) to demon who made them angry both demon and horsemen be a little scared( in Polish it sound treatening trust me). War ask his friend for help in learn Polish but at the end get angry and continue in a few days( Polish is hard for forehiners and non-Slavic people)

Death: He be( under his mask) impressed that humans have so cultural different, and gladly learn new language. Death know much languages, but not Polish. Unlike War he be more pacience durning Polish language lessons and sometimes even learn some Polish songs like „Hej Sokoły”( translate: Hey, Falcons )or „ Cicha Noc”( translate: Silent Night). If he liked this language he try to found as much information about Polish culture, tradicions and history as he can.

Strife: „Dude are you making some kind of spells?” Strife is suprised that human suddenly change from english to Polish. After some explanations he be gladly learn new language so he can annoy Death and on friend’s birthday he can sing”Sto Lat”(translate: Happy Birthday) to make them feel like in home.

Fury: She is shocked that if her human companion said something in strange language ( look at War’s)demon shut up with their mouth open. She gladly( after explanation and translate) learn Polish language to treaten enemies.

Music tag game

I was tagged my @mcrmadness with this - thank you :)

☀️ A song stuck in your head when you woke up this morning:

The guitar part of Toshiro Masuda - Oh! Student and Teacher Affection from the Naruto OST. It’s very Pink Floydish, I like this. 

⚠️ A song you love by a band you strongly dislike

There is no special song by a special band, but there are some songs out of the wonderful (not) genre of “Ballermannschlager” which find their way in my head every now and then. It drives me mad, because I disklike this genre dearly. 

🙄 A song you  dislike by a band you love:

HIM - Killing Loneliness

🐤 First song you recall from childhood: 

Maryla Rodowicz - Hej Sokoły

😳 A song no one would believe  you’d ever like:  

Querbeat - Nie mehr Fastelovend

😯 A song you probably  shouldn’t love but do: 

Helene Fischer - Atemlos

This song was so played so often in Germany, there was no escape, but I still like it; although I am not even into Schlager (which is again a different thing than Ballermannschlager). 

• You always switch it off when THIS one comes on

Plain White T’s - Hey there Delilah

I don’t like this Hurdy-Gurdy sound and this song consists of nothing else.

💜 A song that makes you smile:

Die Ärzte - Himmelblau

Because of the positive anticipation coming from this song: “Jetzt stehst du hier und du hörst nicht auf zu lachen. Die Welt gehört dir und der Rest deines Lebens beginnt.” (You are Standing here right now and you don’t stop laughing. The wolrd belongs to you and the rest of your life Begins.”)

💔 A song that makes you cry: 

Strays Don’t Sleep - For Blue Skies

Not anymore, but the first couple of times I’ve heard this song, it really hit a nerve and made me cry like a little child.

🔥 A song that gets you motivated:

Rammstein - Links 2 3 4

I seriously run 6 minutes faster during my round when I listen to this song on repeat. Probably it’s this marching ryhtm which makes me do so.  I tag @tinnike and @notafraidofredyellowandblue (as always: of course just if you want to) and everyone who want to do this :)

5. favourite song in your native language?Lol that's hard...i quite like our folk songs like for example "Шёл казак на побывку домой" (it's about a cossack who was heading home, fell to a river and was sheltered by a girl he then fell in love with)Also i quite like Подмосковные вечера (Moscow nights), such a nostalgic Soviet song:') and i think (attention: guilty confession) i like some songs by the Ukranian band Бумбокс (Boombox), like Пепел (Cinder), though i prefer their songs in Ukranian:'DAlso,it's offtop but it's Slavic, i ADORE the Polish song "Hej, sokoły" (Hey, falcons) 😄16. which stereotype about your country you hate the most and which one you somewhat agree with?I HATE it when people perceive us from the political point of view, like eeeee, blah blah, Russians, Putin, invaders or some shit like this. I just tell them "hey, i didn't take part in all this political shit, why do i have to be seen through this?" Agree with... so, okay, people seem to think we are a bit conservative and this is kinda true, especially Soviet people are, and i try to be more progressive23. which alcoholic beverage is the favoured one in your country?I'd say vodka lol, but if i judge from my experience i see people around me usually drinking beer. But there's an expression "под водяру сойдет" which means "with vodka it's ok" and lmao i don't know why i remembered it😅27. favourite national celebrity?Eh....... do 19-20th century writers count?:D if so, i have a lot, but if not... i have no idea sorry:D

k have you ever listened to Slavic music because WOWEE ITS AWESOME

like take this for example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZzZ1qmXZBuY&list=PL1TkaZtpC0qzDAYc7SAeRLbu9zfS_4_h-&index=12 

‘Hej, sokoły (Hey falcons)‘ AMAZING SUCH A BOP 10/10 this guy is in love with his country

another: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QhRAZpmEX2M&list=PL1TkaZtpC0qzDAYc7SAeRLbu9zfS_4_h-&index=6

‘When we were at war’ the song might be sad but im lowkey in love with this person’s voice 10/10

and one more: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k7TxSDRqdC4&list=PL1TkaZtpC0qzDAYc7SAeRLbu9zfS_4_h-&index=9 

‘Яблочко (little apple)’ 11/10 that apple sounds amazing but i’m also confused cause the subtitles are sending conflicting messages.

in conclusion: Slavic music slaps.
