//song list and lore under the cut//
Queen of Peace – Florence + the Machine
I understand you're angry with me. I would be too, if I'd watched my father come so close to salvation, only to die the way he did. Believe me-the groans and snaps of his exobody tearing itself apart haunt me almost as profoundly as the things we said over his deathbed. [...] But what I am working on here could have saved him. Could save him still.
His only son
Cut down but the battle won
Oh, what is it worth
Moons of Jupiter – Freezepop
“Europa has relit the fire in my soul; one that even its freezing winds cannot chill.”
I think you are the moons of Jupiter
I think there's something hiding underneath the ice
Nice to Meet Me – Zack Hemsey
The K1 artifact promised me an offering. A gateway to the secret of immortality. I call it Clarity.
It is waiting on Europa.
And I feel like I got a gun
Like I've been changed more ways than one
And this whole world has just begun
Kingdom Fall – Claire Wyndham
“Agatha, clearly we have not found our solution. I'll leave this, hm, mess in your incapable hands. Don't ever bring me up to witness an event like this again. Disgusting.”
Nothing here is shining
Shining like it should
Her Father In The Pool – The National
“That's your son's quote,” she snapped. “You know, I've seen the video of his final days. That naked, white exo, just paramuscle and soft membrane, writhing in its cradle. When you were done with him, he looked like nothing more than a slug, Clovis. A twisted, limbless giblet. Did you 'support and nurture' him while you tortured him to death?”
Mistakes – PHILDEL
I know how much you've lied
It's too much to discuss numbers
I know how much I've let slide
Numbers – Daughter
Fine. I’m coming. […] If you tell the family I’m sick, I’ll never speak to you again. I won’t even let you treat me. You’ll have to watch, helpless, as your own granddaughter falls victim to your mistakes. I hope you’re still someone capable of being troubled by that.
You’d better make me better
Organs – Of Monsters And Men
“I activate this... and it all goes away. [sniffles] Cheers to that.”
And I cough up my lungs
Because they remind me of how it all went wrong
But I leave in my heart
Because I don't want to stay in the dark
Rabbit Heart – Florence + the Machine
She’s done it. My girl has transubstantiated. My legacy is safe. […] The scan was flawless, and of course, fatally toxic. My granddaughter’s human form died on the table 14 hours later.
And Midas is king, and he holds me so tight
And turns me to gold in the sunlight
Destroy Everything You Touch – Unwoman
“Of course you dreamt about killing us. Your grandfather made you this way. And he kills everything he touches.”
Destroy everything you touch today
Destroy me this way
Anything that may desert you
So it cannot hurt you
Over Cold Shoulders – Eliza Rickman
“The memory bank you just slipped in your pocket. That belonged to Elisabeth-1.”
You come in here looking for more
And oh, you take all you can fit in your arms
When you walk out the door
Make Up Your Mind – Florence + the Machine
If I do not survive the construction and delivery of this weapon, I ask that you share the news of my death with Ana and Willa so they can make proper goodbyes.
I do this for them. Not for you.
Pray for grace, Grandfather.
And although the axe is heavy
It just sits in my hands
Landfill – Daughter
“You’ve always been my favorite, Elisabeth. Please…”
Wipe away your tear stains
Thought you said you didn’t feel pain
Which Witch – Florence + the Machine
“Perhaps our legacy should be burnt to the ground,” she says
And it’s my whole heart
While tried and tested, it’s mine
Legacy – Unwoman
The new Elisabeth has no mouth or nose. She did not consider them necessary. She'll see. But somehow, I could still see the wonder in her eyes as she leaned over me.
“You're my grandfather,” she seemed to say. “Aren't you?”
The End Of Love – Florence + the Machine
“Legacy first… Elisabeth,” he says.
We were a family pulled from a flood
You tore the floorboards up
And let the river rush in
Tomorrow – Daughter
Repeating myself over and over, hoping something will change, but I know it's coming. Blood and betrayal.
But don't bring tomorrow
'Cause I already know
I'll lose you
Lament – Destiny 2: Beyond Light OST
There was a world where we were a happy family. This isn't it. We both know it.
