hey, @bellathetmntgeckolady, thanks for the tag!! ( •̀ ω •́ )✧ i've not done one of these in a long time, so this'll be fun! i think things like this are nice little community builders; it's a shame not to see them as often.

"the rules of the game are to write one song for every letter in your url, and then tag as many people as there are letters in your url." reposting because those reblog chains get longggg.

also, i made a temporary spotify playlist if that's easier listening.

r - reverence ; hammock e - end of small sanctuary ; akira yamaoka d - dúlaman ; celtic woman s - spanish sahara ; foals t - tsunami ; fløre r - rainy day ; alec holowka i - inner universe ; origa n - no turning back ; olivier deriviere, eric maria couturier g - give a fuck ; tezatalks r - resting grounds ; christopher larkin a - apocalypse ; sleeperstar v - voidfish (plural) ; rachel rose mitchell e - empires ; ruelle n - neglected space ; imogen heap

if you're tagged, no pressure to take part! i'll be tagging a mix of pals and folks i've never tagged before but who seem in my orbit. ...if your @ didn't work, i hope you see this somehow. <xD;;; take care!

because i'm insufferable, i'll also put some small character/song relevant thoughts under the cut. as a treat to myself.

reverence: this song gives me the feeling of being out on casey's farmhouse porch on late summer afternoon or at sunset. everyone's just kind of basking in the warmth, downtime, and company of each other. some might be napping, those awake are making quiet, idle conversation. it's just nice.

end of small sanctuary: this one always makes me think of raph and gwyn, specifically, sitting on city high-point at sunset. much like how it's used in SH3 when heather is just being a teenager at the mall and is probably music she'd listen to, this very much gives me the energy and warmth of raph and gwyn sitting in the setting sun, high above the city, with maybe some food and light conversation. a breath between The Horrors™.

dúlaman: i've been trying to find and listen to more celtic/irish music for a lot of reasons (so if you know any pls gib), but one is to better cultivate the sound and energy of liáfsian folksongs and music.

spanish sahara: how could i make this list without one of the songs that never fails to fuck me up. spanish sahara has been the driving 'score' in my head when it's come to a number of story scenes or character moments due to the slow build and emotional release of the song as well as the lyrics. i dunno. this song just moves and inspires me in ways i can't quite articulate.

tsunami: this song just feels so strongly like aislinn to me. the lost-lover part, sure, but especially the feeling of drowning and just... the instrumentals/vocals feel like her, too. i associate her a lot with water.

rainy day: no specific scenario here, but this score makes me think of and want to draw don or leo. the game it's from kind of has a melancholic nostalgia to it, and the vibe sits well with them.

inner universe: this song is all vibes for me, and it always makes me think of entering the territory of one of the liáfsian dragons and crossing paths with it. specifically the dragon i associate with leo.

no turning back: this score is fully for gwyn being on the run. the title, the strings, the faint ticking clock and building drums toward the end, the urgency throughout. it is, for better or worse, a reflection of what so much of her life has felt like.

give a fuck: sounds and feels like a nyxram song. hard to explain, this one just always makes me think of her.

resting grounds: this score's on my playlist for the liáfsian ruins, which is an area in the realm considered to be cursed ground (but no one knows or remembers why). the ruins are beautiful, peaceful. but you never quite have the sense that you're truly alone.

apocalypse: this song always makes me think of PtINL, i can't really explain why. it's on my personal playlist for the fic, and every time it comes on shuffle it just sends me back into thoughts of mikey, aloy, their travels and their bond.

voidfish (plural): first of all: LOVE the voidfish. second, this is another one of those scores that gives me the energy of encountering ancient liáfsian fae.

empires: this song always makes me think of a 'trailer' for gwyn and ash's arc. i think it's accurate not only for how the final conflict between gwyn, ash and darach will go down, but there's a hint at a much older threat in there and "the tides are turned" being that companionship has been found in the turtles.

neglected space: this song, without fail, always makes me think of and want to draw nyxram. there's something sad, lost and desperate to it.

Since we both love music even though we agree that Peyton would disapprove of my chronically uncool taste in songs: Pick three OTPs and 3-5 songs that you associate with each of them!

I don't think Peyton would like most of my music choices, but I can live with that.

I did a post similar to this that was all Taylor Swift songs. In that post, I said that I usually correlate soundtracks with the couple.

Damon and Elena (full disclosure: These are all from the TVD soundtrack, and I am creating a lyric book for this show for my own personal fun.) 1. Never Let Me Go by Florence + The Machine 2. All I Need by Within Temptation 3. I Was Wrong by Sleeperstar 4. Kiss Me by Ed Sheeran 5. Holding On and Letting Go by Ross Copperman

Pacey and Joey 1. Everything You Want by Vertical Horizon 2. Daydream Believer by anyone but soundtrack specific Mary Beth Maziarz 3. Crazy for This Girl by Evan and Jaron 4. Bent by Matchbox 20 5. You and Me by Lifehouse

Lucas and Peyton 1. Let it Go by James Bay 2. The One by Kodaline 3. Hanging by a Moment by Lifehouse 4. Perfect by Ed Sheeran 5. To Make You Feel My Love by Adele

This took me ages. I hope you like it.

[kiss-my-freckle]

This necklace scene is one of Delena’s best. 4x1 is gorgeous too, but the original is specific in the fact that it’s a follow-up to 2x1. That’s why they chose a soundtrack just as specific. I Was Wrong by Sleeperstar. “Damon, don't! What's wrong with you?” It’s a follow-up to Elena’s comment. That’s why this scene exists. “Stop it! You're better than this, come on.” He’s basically saying he is... better than this. Because he loves her. And yeah... that’s why he kisses her on the forehead.

Ramshackle demanded I do this with my 9.5-hr Megastar playlist and there's too many to put in the tags so.

I have like a few more early 2000s rock songs? But my spouse tells me none of them count as "ballads." U.U

"Always Hate Me" - James Blunt

"Torn" - James TW

"New Rules" - Dua Lipa

Hozier Song:

I'll be honest, I actually don't have one of these. ^^;

The Song That Started It All:

I am wracking my brain to remember which one this is... Probably something by Halsey?

I think it was "Is There Somewhere" by Halsey. My early Megastar shipping thoughts were very strongly down the line of Megatron being more interested in Optimus than Starscream and Starscream being very bitter and piney about it.

Every queer ship playlist should include:

an early 2000's rock ballad

a classic emo song

a breakup song

a song about being saved

an excessively cheery bop

a Hozier song

and the song that started it all

(Put yours in the tags)

The Sound of Sherlolly

We all get inspired by what surrounds us in our day to day life. About 89% of the time, I get inspired by music. So today I would like to share some songs that have inspired some of my edits and writings. But before I start sharing them, I’d like to explain how I will be doing this.

Just so everyone can understand a little bit better, I have sorted my playlist into four different categories; Sherlock’s perspective, Molly’s perspective, a perspective that could be seen by either or both of them and from others point of view. And when I mentioned “others” I meant as other characters. I’ll give an example below. They are also color coded but I guess that’s just my virgo side peeking through.

I will mention the name of the song, the singer(s), and my favourite verse(s), that way you can get a peek of the work.

Additionally, I'd just like to point out that not all songs will be 100% Sherlolly related, some may be, but others may not. So I recommend for everyone to give it a listen and experience it for yourselves.

Lastly, I would like to mention that this post will have more parts to come. Keep a look out if you are interested for more of “The Sound of Sherlolly.”

“Always the One" by Sleeperstar

Impossible

I could never replace you

I could never replace you

Permeate my soul

If you go I do not know

How I could live without you, live without you

Live without the only one who knows me

You were always the

One who was a fighter

Tear it down to build it higher

Greatest freedom, my desire

Unafraid to face the fire, to be loved

You were always the one

I can't sleep, I can't breathe

Without you here I'm just a shadow of a man

And I don't know what I'd do without you, yeah!

“Love in the Dark” by Adele

We're not the only ones

I don't regret a thing

Every word I've said

You know I'll always mean

It is the world to me

That you are in my life

But I want to live

And not just survive

“I love you” by Billie Eilish

The smile that you gave me

Even when you felt like dying

We fall apart as it gets dark

I'm in your arms in Central Park

There's nothing you could do or say

I can't escape the way I love you

I don't want to

But I love you, ooh

“Broken Home” by 5 Seconds of Summer

*To everyone, Tom and Molly were the perfect happy couple, everyone except their son. Her son and his bandmates were performing at a restaurant that always played live music. Her son invited all of Molly’s friends/family who were also part of his life. Sherlock, John, Greg, Meena, Mary, Rosie, Mrs. H, Stamford, among others were present. Molly had no clue of this songs existence, how he felt or that he even knew about her marriage problems with Tom. Molly was speechless and had tears streaming down her face while she watched her son give all on this performance. Tom was fuming with anger and the others were just speechless. No one had a clue. Molly masked everything out so well. She fooled everyone, even Sherlock Holmes.*

They would yell, they would scream, they were fighting it out

She would hope, she would pray, she was waiting it out

Holding on to a dream

While she watches these walls fall down

Sharp words like knives, they were cutting her down

Shattered glass like the past, it's a memory now

Holding on to a dream

While she watches these walls fall down

Thank you for reading thus far!

The Vampire Diaries Music Moments: 2/?

S2 E8 - I Was Wrong - Sleeperstar

Damon returns Elena’s necklace after telling her that he loves her ((and compeling her to forget that he ever said it)).

“I just have to say something.”

“Why do you have to say it with my necklace...”

“Because what I’m about to say is probably the most selfish thing I’ve ever said in my life.”

“Damon, don’t go there-”

“No, I just have to say it once. You just need to hear it. I love you, Elena. And it’s because I love you that I can’t be selfish with you... and why you can’t know this. I don’t deserve you... but my brother does. God, I wish you didn’t have to forget this... but you do.”

[muslim-flint]

the way i didnt even fixate on the vampire diaries as a teen and the soundtrack still haunts me
