Starlight:

[frznkingdom]

🎵 One song for all of them, mayhaps? 💙

Send “🎵“ and I’ll reply with a song that’s related to my muse and I’ll explain why

Eira: Battlefield (svrcina)

No matter how exhausted she is, she will always fight to protect her teammates and everyone in Atlas and Mantle.

-

Laurel: Symptom of Being Human (Shinedown)

She starts to get really hard on herself after Volume 4, fretting over trying to get better, stronger. Trying to not show fear. Trying to not appear like a weak huntress.

And this song just makes me think of her wrestling with her different mindsets.

-

Midnight: Let The Sparks Fly (Thousand Foot Krutch)

It fits her early-volumes very reckless attitude. She's very outgoing during fights, especially for this one which I pick as the song for her and Laurel in the Vytal Festival tournament.

-

Myrtle: Waiting on the Sky to Change (Starset)

This is the song I have for when Myrtle finally comes out of her shell and starts to show courage. She can't always wait for someone else to save her. Sometimes she has to step up and help herself.

-

Nera: World So Cold (Three Days Grace)

Oh god back to the angst. She's always trying to keep her walls up, appear one way when around other people, rarely showing her true emotions while attempting to maintain a facade.

But deep down she's grieving the people who are gone from her life. Her sister, her mentor, her first crush. Living with the guilt that comes from her semblance or not being there to help someone sooner. All the good people from her life have left at one point or another, except for Gale now.

-

Gale: All Is Found (from Frozen 2)

Honestly I've always heard this song as the lullaby Nera would sing to Gale to help her fall asleep. It gives me a really calm, happy feeling.

Monster is such an underrated Imagine Dragons song. Please vote for it because it fucks me up on the daily. I relate to that feeling too much.

Also, a list of "Monster" songs I listen to because mod is right. Those will fuck you up:

Monster by Starset

Monster by Beth Crowley

Monster by Skillet

Monster by Meg & Dia

Monster by dodge (which I also submitted to the tournament)

Monster and Monster (Reborn) by Gabbie Hanna

Monsters by Katie Sky

Monster (Imagine Dragons)

If I told you what I was, would you turn your back on me?/And if I seemed dangerous, would you be scared?/I get the feeling just because everything I touch isn’t dark enough./If this problem lies with me.

"Feeling like something is taking you over that you can’t stop and it’s isolating you from everyone else"

Poll runner: If Imagine Dragons has a hundred fans, I will be one of them. If they have ten fans, I will be one. If they have no fans, I will be dead. Thank you and good day. (Also any song titled Monster is probably going to fuck you up, justsayin)

River Valley (Moxy Früvous)

Me and Pete went swimming last night, he's my friend from Boy Scouts All the fish were floating upright, we got scared, and we got out Mother says don't play down where your father does his job And though he's got to make living, or move to Russia

"It's a song about environmental destruction and needing to watch that world get destroyed. It's about inheriting a world that has already been destroyed by your parents and having no way to fight back against that. It's about fear. terror. It's about missing a world you never knew, one that was never destroyed by capitalism. sigh."

oc personality sheet / tag game

is this the mortifying ideal of being known? SJHFSJDHFSD tagged by the lovely @queen-breha-organa <3 og post here

Rules: Copy and paste these questions and make your own post, please do not add onto this one, it’ll get too long too fast. Mahalo. Then tag some of your friends to let them know you’d like to hear more about their ocs!

———

i'll do omura since new canon is slightly nicer to it >:) happy introductions to hell

Name: Omura Vane

Pronouns: it/its, they/them is fine if unsure

Nickname: 'Mura, Overgrown Tooka, Meht, MuraMura

One Word To Sum Them Up: Mandalorian.

Noun to Describe Them: The Protector, or The Altruist

Temperament: Generally placid when in good company. If around its crechemates or other loved ones, Omura is very adoring and doting, loud and joking, or will just curl up next to someone for a nap. When in public or pressing situations, Omura is typically the breaking voice of reason and provides fresh insight by seeing problems from all sides. Will bite you if you're going to cause arguments for no reason.

MBTI Type: INFP-T

Enneagram Type: I have never done this before-

Other’s First Impression of Them: Can come off as too on-edge, too strong or not strong enough. Can seem very foreboding thanks to its habit of standing back and closely observing situations before engaging.

General Likes: Peppermint!!, gentleness, love and physical affection, close-knit family ties, being able to watch new improvements unfold, feeling apart of something eternal and bigger

General Dislikes: Ki-Adi Mundi, Council Meetings

Romantic Status: Collecting partners like infinity stones.

Love Interest (s): No canon characters, but OCs Avit'il (@arcjesse), Sgt. Bolt (myself), and Zil'remu (@/arcjesse).

Good Friend (s): Mace Windu (Master), Cin Drallig (father figure) + Bene (baby sister figure), Kit Fisto (fun uncle), Plo Koon (cool uncle), Anakin Skywalker (older brother/favorite pain in the ass)

Enemy: KI-ADI MUNDI, basically if you're a threat to any child or anyone in the Temple, you're on Omura's shitlist.

Hobbies: Reconnecting to Mandalorian heritage, learning from Healers, spending time with crechemates or parental figures within the Temple, honestly just traveling anywhere with good and close friends. Having a good time is a dream.

Songs They Relate To: DEVOLUTION - Starset

Fictional Characters Similar To Their Personality: Me-

Fun Fact: Omura and Anakin are nearly neck-and-neck in their born power with the Force. Starting from when they were younger and had more problems with being unable to properly let go of some tension, they would hold sparring tournaments in empty halls at ass hours of night. And they would always be herded by Guards into proper training rooms to prevent destruction of the Temple.

Free Space/Ramble: // Omura is considered a deity to the Togruta people, its full title being - Tunguma d'det Shili'neh et Grriva unt Tungu'ko d'det Ehm d'Yau; Sa'daar det Ha'a unt Sa'mahr d'det Togruta or "Daughter of the Spirit like Balance and Son of the Shelter of Life; Brother of Breath and Daughter of the People". It is the Barsen'thor (Warden) to the Jedi Order and certainly does not hesitate to act when alerted to a threat.

// Omura used to sleep in Mace Windu or any other senior Councilmaster's lap throughout meetings as both an initiate and a padawan. Eventually, Omura will take the mantle as a Councilmaster itself.. and will still sleep through the meeting.

// Omura, in typical Cheeriverse canon, will return to Mandalore postwar and resume its place in its clan, Clan Vane of House Vane.

// In Cheeriverse canon, Omura kills Ki-Adi Mundi. Simply because he overspent his daily-shithead allowance by at least 40 years.

This picture was taken in China. It was an opening ceremony of WESG 2018-2019 e-sports tournament of some kind. If anyone wants to see STARSET's performance, feel free to message me.

[starset-tournament]

I tried to keep my opinions on the polls off this blog to not influence anything but everyone who voted for Devolution over Something Wicked? ACTUALLY explode. Right. Now. If I had a veto, that would be what I used it on. You all have horrible tastes /lh

[starset-tournament]

Songs below;

It Has Begun;

Dark on Me;

[starset-tournament]

Looks like Starlight has beat Unbecoming.

Now this would be the end of the tournament if Brave New World hadn't come out during the tournament- Should we put Starlight up against Brave New World? /genq

[starset-tournament]

Man I'm listening to the songs to cast my own vote and why did I make this. it's so difficult. Starset has never missed, not ever. Not even once. Even the intro songs fuck I don't

[starset-tournament]

Songs Below;

Everglow:

Perfect Machine:

[starset-tournament]

went outside for a bit, felt somewhat rejuvenated, and queued the last of round 3's polls. Still not sure as to whether we should include Brave New World yet as there will probably still be some recency bias. Perhaps when the new album comes out I'll do a tournament of all those songs and BNW, then the winner of that gets put up against our winner of this tournament to see if the new release changed anything. That's still some time away however, drop ur thoughts ^^

[starset-tournament]

Brave New World has been out for a while now so perhaps the recency bias won't be as strong. Time for the champion to face off against the newcomer. Next month, the winner of this poll will face off against Degenerate.

Brave New World:

[starset-tournament]

edit: this was in my drafts I thought I posted this and I was wondering where it was. Posting this after posting R2 results is crazy guys I'm really organized

Round 1 Brackets 8-13 have finished, and once Bracket fourteen wraps up that will officially conclude round 1. I think some of you have terrible tastes by the way /lh

8a; Trials

8b; Solstice

9a; Monster

9b; Alchemy

10a; Die for You

10b; Telescope

11a; Ricochet

11b; Icarus

12a; Devolution

12b; Something Wicked

13a; My Demons

13b; Manifest

14; Waiting on the Sky to Change

And our winner of the tie breaker round was Unbecoming. Annihilated Love was in second place but it is not enough, and Unbecoming will be moving into round 3.

I have been a bit busy so this post is a little late. We have some winners of Round 2 declared!
