Oops. Crowley left his playlist in the Bentley.

For two people that broke up almost 2000 years ago, they sure do have the vibe of that insanely toxic couple on your college campus that you keep getting second-hand embarrassment from as you pass by. Idk what the modern equivalent of drowning your ex in a bathtub would be tho.

[salvadorbonaparte]

I made a little playlist full of songs that give me hope. Maybe they'll help someone else too.

also on youtube

(thoughts and context under the cut)

no surprises - light's nihilism and disillusionment pre-kira - without the death note i think light would have gone down this line faster.

A heart that's full up like a landfill A job that slowly kills you Bruises that won't heal You look so tired, unhappy Bring down the government

uprising; boulevard of broken dreams - self-explanatory i feel

Rise up and take the power back It's time the fat cats had a heart attack You know that their time's coming to an end

My shadow's the only one that walks beside me My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me 'Til then I walk alone

starlight - misa towards light

Far away from the memories Of the people who care if I live or die ... My life You electrify my life Let's conspire to ignite All the souls that would die just to feel alive

do you want me (dead?) - light and L's early rivalry and interactions in college are largely exploratory, simultaneously more and less openly hostile, still cautious and uncertain where they stand with each other.

There's no such thing as a perfect crime Don't play that You've said it enough Cause you want me Or you want me dead

i love you - self-indulgent haha i couldn't resist. takes place in a similar continuity to my fic where light and L start a fake relationship for the investigation but when light briefly thinks it's real after he loses his memories. i think canonically light is too irritated with L's poor moral compass to develop true feelings for him even during this arc, but i do think it's reasonable to think light might develop a bit of a puppy crush and a desire for L's attention lol. simultaneously it's kinda a bit of L at kira.

Is there anything I could do Just to get some attention from you? In the waves I've lost every trace of you Where are you?

NOSE BLEED - i think this is the most lawlight song ever. (this also made me think of a couple of my fics.) after light gets his memories back i think his attachment to L transforms into a bit of disgust directed both at himself and L

I'd rather be lonely and hate myself Than someone you think about ... So this is what you get For messin' with my head Don't wanna end up dead (Dead) Six feet in the ground

you're gonna go far, kid - nobody wants to hear that this song is about light yagami but it is. lowkey this is L to light while those bells are ringing

There's something in your way And now someone is gonna pay And if you can't get what you want Well it's all because of me Now dance, fucker, dance Man, I never had a chance And no one even knew It was really only you

when your heart stops beating; dead! - self-explanatory and victorious in a hysterical about to start crying way

I'll be there when your heart stops beating I'll be there when your last breath's taken away In the dark when there's no one listening In the times when we both get carried away

Have you heard the news that you're dead? No one ever had much nice to say I think they never liked you anyway Oh, take me from the hospital bed Wouldn't it be grand? It ain't exactly what you planned

wake me up when september ends - listen i concede this one doesn't make a ton of sense but i've included it because the vibes work for me. something something a melancholy coming back to the self, a rude and painful awakening after a loss of innocence you cant run from. look over there, a distraction

The innocent can never last ... Here comes the rain again Falling from the stars Drenched in my pain again Becoming who we are

mama; disarm - light to his family, to the world, a manic little soliloquy

Stop asking me questions, I'd hate to see you cry Mama, we're all gonna die And when we go, don't blame us, yeah We'll let the fires just bathe us, yeah You made us oh, so famous ... You should've raised a baby girl, I should've been a better son

I used to be a little boy So old in my shoes And what I choose is my choice What's a boy supposed to do? The killer in me is the killer in you

father and son - are you ever just so god damn sad about the yagamis.

FATHER I was once like you are now, and I know that it's not easy To be calm when you've found something going on ... SON Keeping all the things I knew inside It's hard But it's harder to ignore it

I think I've loved you since I met you. I just mistook it for curiosity.

Ever since I first laid eyes on you, I felt this unquenchable need to know you. I blamed it on ulterior motives, justified it because I needed something from you, because you held the answers I was looking for, because no one else was able to help but you. Looking back on it now though, I'm starting to think that maybe some part of me knew right from the start, that first night I stumbled upon you in the woods, what took me years to see: Maybe my heart recognized that it was going to love you right away, and I spent the years to come catching up with what it knew right from the start. That it was always going to be you. How could it ever have been anyone else? Through mayhem and bloodshed, through fear and loss, through grief and sleepless nights, you were the one constant that remained. When I lost sight of everything—first myself, then reality, then hope—you were the one guiding my way like a beacon, or a north star. If I've ever known peace, it's in all the moments that your hand has touched mine and that your arms have held me tirelessly, putting your body like a shield between me and every inkling of danger. Of all the late-night wonderings of trying to make sense of the last decade (and failing), what remains is this singular thought: At least it was you. At least it was me. At least it was us, together. I'd bear it all a million times over if it meant I got to hold your hand at the end of it all. You are the moment of quiet at the end of a long day, you are breathless laughter, you're the patch of sunlight filtering in through the window that I stand in to warm myself. You are everything good in this world and living proof that there is hope despite it all, and I love you beyond measure.

Happy St Patrick’s Day, everybody! Have a Horatio’s Epilogue-themed playlist:

I can also make a YouTube version, if people would prefer that? Anyway, this is what I listen to while I write very sad things about the town of Elsinore and its inhabitants. These are the vibes.

Let me know your thoughts about the song choices! :))

Happy Vargas Day! Stop saying 100%

They are truly Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde-ing it up around the Institute ♥ The role(s) was made for them!

Doctor meme!Edgar is here to assist! Scriabin is also here, to make quips at Edgar’s expense, equally important

He’s swooning! Catch him! Hold him in your weak noodle big strong arms!

Not an MD. Maybe. The text on his certificate is blurry, it must’ve been printed weirdly. It’s totally legit, don’t bother checking, just trust him

every time i listen to “defying gravity” from wicked i think about how when i was 11 we had the cd loaded onto the family ipod, which was on my dad’s account, so it was also where my dad had a very intricate curated selection of playlists where he had rated his favorite songs extremely specifically, giving them a star value to create a fun blend of the very specific songs he loved. but what happened when he handed the ipod to me specifically was i ranked every song in wicked five stars and ruined his entire system and all of his breakfast music listening was literally just wicked the musical. anyway please imagine a man clearly battling so much to very patiently and lovingly ask his eleven year old daughter who had no idea this was happening if maybe she could be negotiated down to the two songs from wicked that she liked the MOST.

ANYWAY defying gravity was one of those songs.

Somebody’s bound to have said this before but can we talk about all the different meanings for the lines And you know how those Muses are/Sometimes they abandon you

First: Orpheus being abandoned by his mother, a literal Muse, hence why he’s being raised and protected by Hermes.

Second: Muse in the figurative sense, as inspiration, and it being notoriously fickle and fleeting. Muse abandoning Orpheus while he attempts to finish his song, though he abandons his own Muse just the same.

Third: Orpheus abandoning Eurydice in her time of need. Not on purpose; he’s entirely too wrapped up in his song. But nonetheless, she calls for him and he isn’t there. Unintentional as it may have been, he still abandoned her for the song he needed to complete.

Fourth: Eurydice as Orpheus’s other Muse, half figurative and half literal. Eurydice encouraging Orpheus to finish his song, which causes him to hyper focus on it, while Eurydice abandons him for the stability and comfort she needs. She abandons the unknowns and stormy weather of his world (which she knows intimately) for the shelter, certainty and safety of the world six feet under the ground below.

What I love about Hadestown in part is the depth it gave to Orpheus and Eurydice’s relationship. When the chips were down, neither of them could give the other what they needed: shelter for Eurydice, and an end to the song for Orpheus.

Orpheus also quite literally descends for his Muse (Eurydice) and discovers his figurative Muse and finishes the song. Eurydice realizes that she wants to be with Orpheus in the world above, and that the price for what she wanted was steeper than she knew. They both return to each other and realize (too late), that they are all they need.

Those lines foreshadow all the tragedy to come in a million different ways and yet we watch Orpheus and Eurydice fall in love and believe that maybe this time it will be different.

God. What a show. What a mind, Anaïs Mitchell.

Endlessly - Reverse Adrien

An unrequited love song for Adrien's lonely heart in Valentine's Day

After a long day of unsuccessfully planned attempts to make Valentine's day memorable, Reverse Adrien ended up quite moody and alone in his room. He's such a Marinette.

More on Adrien's struggles with shyness here

Original Sketch:

But of course this is inspired by Muse.

There's a part of me you'll never know The only thing I'll never show

Hopelessly I'll love you endlessly I'll give you everything But I won't give you up I won't let you down And I won't leave you falling … but the moment never comes
