"So who's Johnnie?" Alex asked, leaning on the bar towards the back of the venue as up front, on stage, Charlie Reimes played the first few notes of Cane Corso's brand new song. There was something bright and comfortable in those first few bars, a rhythm that was easy to fall into. He hadn't really done much listening to the band, but Drew had invited him out for drinks tonight, and he'd obliged. It seemed to him that the venue was a little bit smaller than the kind of crowds Cane Corso could draw nowadays, but they hadn't advertised tonight's performance. This was a local show, a surprise and a homecoming. Alex didn't mind. He wouldn't have come if there would've been a huge crowd.

Drew raised an eyebrow when he looked over at him. The young man slid a beer in his direction, then turned to lean back against the bar and sip at his own. "Yours," he said simply, then nodded towards the stage. "He read your book."

Alex's brows furrowed. Then he looked back towards the stage, where Charlie's bandmates had stepped back to give him a little more of center stage. Charlie was grinning when he hit the first verse.

I get a thrill out of playing with fire,

Because you hold your life when you hold that flame

I get a kick out of thunder and lightnin',

And tearin' through the night hollerin' your name

Alex frowned. His chest squeezed, and while instinct told him to go stomping out, that it wasn't fair for someone else to go writing a song about him or Rabbit, something stopped him. He crossed his arms on the bar top, lingering, feeling like he was holding his breath.

Oh, little darlin', don't you look charmin',

Here in the eye of a hurricane?

It wasn't a sad song. That was what struck him, he realized. He would've expected a ballad. Or some folksey murder song, considering what he did know of Cane Corso's reputation. It wasn't either of those. A little bittersweet, maybe, but it was mostly a love song.

Would I lie? I'm comin' right on back for you.

Alex chewed down on the inside of his cheek and looked away from the stage. Somewhere, deep down in his chest, he'd always thought Rabbit would've made a good musician. Or a music teacher-- something of the sort. Anything that would let him have a guitar in his hands. Those were some of the times when he had seemed the most at home, and he could play like no one else he'd ever known. He didn't want to watch someone else's hands work across the strings when Rabbit was on his mind.

Oh little darlin', don't you get lonely?

Look in my eyes, give me one more day,

Real or imagined, what does it matter?

Oh, come inside, can I get you to stay?

The song ended quick, a little abrupt, but right where it needed to. There were a few cheers and an excited applause over the song's debut, but Alex wasn't among them. He was about to up and leave when Drew's voice drifted over to him again.

"So what'd you think?" He asked, as casually as if it hadn't been a song that Alex had inspired. Alex frowned down at the countertop.

"I think Jack probably would've liked it," he replied, and left it at that.

YouTube Music Playlist

Notes:

• This is a general collection of songs that remind me of them. No specific point of view, time frame, route, or order.

• Inspired by playlists about them on 8tracks that I listened to during the 2010s fandom days. I can't guarantee that all of the songs here appeared on 8tracks playlists back in the day but most of the artists here are ones I discovered through those playlists.

• A lot of Radical Face because he's a staple in their playlists and whenever I hear his songs, I think of them.

• Iscariot is there twice but different covers, that's because I think they both give off a different impact depending on the time frame it occurs in. I like to think that Walk the Moon's version occurs right after Asriel's refusal to kill and the consequences that occur while The Vassar Devil's cover happens during the Asriel fight in True Pacifist.

• Some songs may have romantic subtext but you can just interpret it as platonic. I personally don't care because when a song reminds me of them, it's them. The important part is that the love is there and it cannot be denied.

• Playlist will be updated in the future. New songs will be added and some songs may be removed.

I am in desperate need of an audio where it starts storming while Sugar’s in the diner and they’re desperately trying to put up a front while being terrified of the thunder and Liza is concerned because their flirtatious personality keeps fading as the storm gets worse and she doesn’t want to ask?? Because they haven’t been overly personal with her yet?? But they are clearly terrified?? And they keep flinching when lightning strikes??

God help me I love angst and comfort and complex character relationships.

Victory squinted. He turned his face from side to side and lifted his chin, quietly taking in his features. It'd been a long while since he truly looked at himself-- Vanity was a sin, of course, so there hadn't been any room in his agenda to do any admiring. But here, standing in Charlie's bathroom, he let himself indulge.

His face was sharp. High cheeks and an angular jaw were the structures that held it all together. Thick brows sat atop a pair of bright green eyes-- His lids were low and inviting, decorated with long, dark lashes. In the center of his face was his nose. It was quite prominent! Victory turned his cheek again to peek at it from the side and smiled. There was a bump in the bridge, and the end hooked ever so slightly towards plush, pink lips. He thought it made him look elegant. Long hair framed it all, the shining locks cascading down his shoulders almost like water in a warm, dark gold. Sin or not, he decided he was fairly lovely. And how wonderful it felt to find that pride!

Wings rolling behind him, he pressed his palms against his cheeks and let his smile spread. A beautiful creature! Kind looking and warm. The idea left him giddy in a way he wasn't quite sure he understood. He took a step back then to look at himself as a whole. Running his fingers over the white poet-style blouse he tended to favor, he hummed in thought. Humans got to wear such fun things, but he'd always been expected to stay unobtrusive. Vi glanced in the mirror and twisted his body to peek, the silk shirt and pants disappearing, replaced instantly with dark velvet fabric. A short dress clung to his torso and thighs, a warm, lowcut sweater sat on top. Fishnet tights were rolled up his long legs while the outfit completed itself with a pair of heavy boots. His eyes shined. It's something he saw a young woman wearing while out with Charlie. He'd been envious from the very moment he saw her, and now he knew why. He was gorgeous.

Breaking into a fit of soft giggles, he spun to admire himself and quickly tugged his hair up in a ribbon-y bun atop his head. Victory bounced on the rubber soles of his shoes and grinned before bounding for the door. "Look! What do you think?" He asked as he moved into the living room, spinning again for Charlie.

Glancing up from his phone, the man gave a shocked blink and sputtered. "It's- Uh, i-it's different..." He managed, his face turning a rosy pink. Charlie let his eyes flick over the angel, taking in the new form-fitting clothing and then the pure happiness on his face. "Good different." He amended and smiled too, "It's very uh... you."

Victory beamed and dove for the couch, wrapping Charlie in wings and arms while he smothered his face in soft kisses. "...I think so too."

had the realization the other night that i do project my own opinions onto re characters with little regard to their characterization in canon in that i believe all of them would be irritated with leon at the very least

And I love Vermont, but it's the season of the sticks

And I saw your mom, she forgot that I existed

And it's half my fault, but I just like to play the victim

I'll drink alcohol 'til my friends come home for Christmas

And I'll dream each night of some version of you

That I might not have, but I did not lose

Now you're tire tracks and one pair of shoes

And I'm split in half, but that'll have to do
