#ren zotto amplify

[20elements]

Inspired by Ren’s original songs, I align my thoughts on them with the three Triforce components in the above artwork. In the following, I’ll not only describe my drawings, but focus more on how I interpret his songs before discussing what my links are between them and the Triforce.

What I will not do is claim I know his mind and music better than anyone else (let alone the guy himself), nor will I project anything… much…

TL;DR - I entertain all three songs cohering into a story about our former alien warlord seeking new meaning in his life, transitioning from  solitude and hostility to worthwhile connections on Earth, with music playing a major role in this. (Apologies in advance if I use the word ‘connection’ a lot.) 01) Wanderer

Elements Drawn: Fire, Darkness

I want to start with his latest song first, because the MV seems to touch on the earlier stages of his lore before his descent on Earth. In other words, it seems to be chronologically first in this yet-trilogy (apart from that ending scene with the rest of ILUNA). According to his lore video, Ren was weary of his race’s bloodthirsty history and left. In Wanderer, Ren seems to express loneliness, either from the lack of friends or love in his darker home planet, or from other planets’ antagonisms towards him. Lyrics such as “could you be alone with me?” may hint that one of the things he hopes to find on his journey is at least one meaningful connection who can accept and truly understand him, however complex or enigmatic he may be, as opposed to fearing and avoiding him.

Nevertheless, my artwork sees the Wanderer of galaxies with the Triforce of Power befitting both his own strengths and violent history. (Similarly, this Triforce would traditionally be blessed to Legend of Zelda’s dark lord Ganondorf.)

“Even if I had great power, I couldn’t get anything. I keep losing them. Everyone will get up from their seats and leave me. …There is no one to invite me anymore…” —Malleus Draconia, Twisted Wonderland 02) Blue Sugar

Elements Drawn: Water, Sound

This one’s easy; methinks Alien Dabi is addicted to jumbo blueberries :D …Jokes aside, I’ll start with Ren’s own explanation: He underwent a rough time and was stuck in his head, then wrote this song out of both self-criticism and a desire to “feel alive again”. For how therapeutic he finds music to be, I want to say this “sugar high” he pursues is simply music. Not very deep, I know, but it checks off many boxes: It’s his new newfound passion and one of the easier yet healthier “highs” or stimuli to experience. More importantly, it can be a way to communicate feelings and possibly even forge connections with.

To backtrack a bit, Blue Sugar was the first song Ren composed after arriving on Earth and discovering music for the first time. Like as not, his prior challenges would include adapting to life and culture on Earth, to say nothing of a continued solitude. Nevertheless, music can soothe his soul and help him carry though his ordeals. But if he wants a song that can truly “hit the spot” and better yet resonate with others as well, Ren may want to compose a song himself for the first time. Depending on how difficult all of that is, creative frustrations and feeling trapped in his thoughts sound plausible—but hey, long story short, he made it!

The most obvious link to the Triforce of Wisdom here is the color blue (water, Lanayru’s element, go figure). A popular fan theory I embrace is that the “Blue” in “Blue Sugar” alludes to planet Earth where Ren discovers music, with much of the color reflected in our oceans and seas. And while I’m stressing music, (1) water is a good conductor of sound, so I portray Ren in a literal sea of sound in my drawing; (2) in Zelda: Ocarina of Time, Link even learns specific songs from Zelda/Sheik, our “Wisdom” bearer. But more pertinent of Wisdom to Ren himself is that I’m seeing Blue Sugar as a mark of his “learning stages” on Earth in general.

“To me, a life without music is inconceivable. I never turn down the volume, even when I’m working on a case.” —Klavier Gavin, Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney 03) Amplify

Elements Drawn: Flora, Light

After overcoming his personal ordeals and literally finding his own melody, it sounds like Ren has succeeded in getting his voice and presence across the world. The beat and melody of Amplify celebrate his successes, while his lyrics reach out to convey the same optimism and encouragement he has developed. Lines such as “Our connection is by design” not only tells me he has found his aforementioned “meaningful connections” (e.g. ILUNA enrollment), but a tremendous reward to his patience in general. The message I’m hearing is that whatever difficulties or odds we may experience, as long as we perservere and not drown in despair, a perfect timing will be there for us to fulfill our aspirations, just as he found his.

So I scarcely need to explain why Amplified Ren holds the Triforce of Courage; he sounds as encouraged as can be to take on the world and possibly the rest of the galaxy (and this time with less destruction in his wake, maybe).

“Your story may not have such a happy beginning, but that doesn’t make you who you are. It is the rest of your story, who you choose to be.” —Soothsayer, Kung Fu Panda 2

__ Nonetheless, Wanderer was released after Amplify, so I’m lead to believe either (a) Ren wrote his third song as a humble reminder of how or why he started this journey that led him to this meadow of magic, or (b) simply an expression that his earlier pursuits still continue, even with the… very mixed warmth of his genmates’ camaraderie. Speaking of which, that lower middle space between the three Triforce panels alludes to his inclusion in “Let’s Get It Started” with blessings from the Moon and Sky. Last Word

I arrange all of my ideas here with doors open to future songs from Ren Zotto that may either completely contradict what I have here or fit any of these Triforce virtues better. But to anyone who may see this in the future, I’m only working with the songs available at this current time while awaiting more bangers from the Alien Prince.

Why don't you believe me?

---------------------------------------------------

Genre : angst

Tw : none... I think

Pairing : Ren Zotto x reader

Characters : Ren Zotto and reader

Story : I promise I would never do such a thing. Please, believe me.

Info : (the reader is apart of the student council) + I'm stepping into unknown territory so idk :D

The day began in a very calm manner, which made you feel uneasy. While seated beside the kitchen counter, you checked your messages and noticed that they were mostly spam. A few of your friends told you to visit the school board website, which you did, albeit with a perplexed expression.

To your astonishment, the website was inundated with individuals frantically discussing a rumor. As you read through the comments, you experienced an weird feeling that signaled that something was happening. This feeling was amplified as you stumbled upon a specific comment.

[What the hell… I thought they were nice. I can’t believe I was ever friends with (Name)]

"What... Why am I being involved too?" You exclaimed, feeling confused and alarmed. You shook your head and clicked on the original post, which contained two attachments: a photo and a Word document. With a sense of suspicion, you opened the Word document and quickly scanned its contents.

Your breathing grew faster and shallower as you scrolled through the document, realizing that you had never done what was being accused against me. You hadn't mocked or ridiculed anyone. Please, believe me.

Your mind was consumed with thoughts when suddenly, you heard a notification sound from my phone. Slowly, you turned to check and saw that it was a message from Ren.

Oh no... He must have seen the website. What should I do? Should I ignore his message or reply to it? What's the right course of action? He probably despises me now...

Trying to steady your nerves, you decide to open his message regardless. You hands shook as you picked up your phone, unlocked it, and searched for his chat.

[I can’t believe you! Why would you do such a thing!?]

[You are now blocked by this user]

"I swear I didn't do it!" Your hands were shaking uncontrollably as you scrolled through your messages, desperately searching for any evidence that could clear your name. However, to your dismay, there was only the same message.

[You are now blocked by this user]

"Why doesn't anyone believe me? I never did any of that. Please, believe me..."

Those were the thoughts running through your mind before you heard another notification sound from your open laptop.

Upon checking, you saw that it was a message from the school council's official account. Perhaps they were here to address the confusion and clear your name. You felt a sense of relief wash over yourself as you thought to myself, "It's going to be okay. Everything will be fine."

[We are sorry to inform you, we have just lost a member of our own student council…] Click to learn more...

"Oh... They really don't believe me, do they?" Tears began dripping down my face as you came to terms with the harsh reality. You tried to blink them away, but they continued to fall relentlessly. With a bitter laugh, you couldn't help but feel sorry for myself. Maybe you shouldn't even be here at all.

Songs they listen to (based off of songs from my own playlist/songs that I like)

Each of the guys have 9 songs that best represents either what they would listen to or their personality/vibes!

One day I'll make and release an actual Spotify playlist of songs that the boys would actually listen to (that isn't only songs from my playlist)

(you also get to see what are my music taste/songs that I like so don't judged me)

Also note: The ones that are covers (in my opinion) are better than the original/fit the vibes of the character more.
