If you could say any song reminds you of Gilded Constellations… what would it be?
As a reader, I can’t put one on the whole thing so far, but Sirius reminds me of Guys Don’t Like Me (by It Boys!) and I can’t put one on Y/N yet… (Remus radiates Conan Grey energy tbh) -🫎

AAAAAAH THIS IS SOOOO HARD! I literally have a miles long note on my phone with hundreds (kid you not) of songs for the chapters titles. Most of them are 60s to early 80s (because I’m a perfectionist and I want the songs so only be songs our boys would have listen to to), having said that. I’ve got a few modern songs, that I feel also fit the theme… heat me out:
Gilded Constellations is Cherry Wine by Hozier and Las Palabras de Amor by Queen
Don't touch me now Don't hold me now Don't break the spell, darling Now you are near Look in my eyes and speak to me The special promises I long to hear Las palabras de amor Let me hear the words of love Despacito, mi amor Love me slow and gently One foolish world, so many souls Senselessly hurled through The never ending cold And all for fear and all for greed Speak any tongue But for God's sake we need Las palabras de amor
Her eyes and words are so icy Oh but she burns Like rum on the fire Hot and fast and angry as she can be I walk my days on a wire It looks ugly, but it's clean Oh momma, don't fuss over me … Her fight and fury is fiery Oh but she loves Like sleep to the freezing Sweet and right and merciful I'm all but washed In the tide of her breathing And it's worth it, it's divine I have this some of the time The way she shows me I'm hers yours and she is mine Open hand or closed fist would be fine The bIood is rare and sweet as cherry wine
Sirius is Too Much Love Will KiII You by Queen
Too much love will kilI you If you can't make up your mind Torn between the lover and the love you leave behind You're headed for disaster 'cause you never read the signs Too much love will kiIl you every time Mmm, how would it be if you were standing in my shoes? Can't you see that it's impossible to choose No, there's no making sense of it Every way I go I'm bound to lose Oh-oh, yeah Too much love will kiII you Just as sure as none at all It'll drain the power that's in you Make you plead and scream and crawl And the pain will make you crazy You're the victim of your crime Too much love will kiIl you every time
Reader is Vega by Ed Sheeran
This week was heavy, I buckled under all the weight What can you do but pray? And count your blessings, it wasn't any other way Don't leave it up to fate … Clouds keep forming over this house, blocking out the sun I'm tryna keep it all together One door closes then one opens, gotta keep the focus If we'll believe, then she'll get better The days are long, but they pass within an instant, babe It is the strangest thing I'll count my blessings the day I see you smile again This war we've got to win Keep it inside, don't let no one see your heart No one can judge, we're the same in the dark Fighting the tide, but the waves, they will part Light up the night, we were made to be stars But it burns like hell to be Vega
Remus is Demons by Imagine Dragons (but also like 100 other songs Remus is all the songs)
When the days are cold And the cards all fold And the saints we see are all made of gold (Sirius) When your dreams all fail And the ones we hail Are the worst of all, and the bIood's run stale I wanna hide the truth I wanna shelter you But with the beast inside There's nowhere we can hide No matter what we breed We still are made of greed This is my kingdom come This is my kingdom come When you feel my heat, look into my eyes It's where my demons hide It's where my demons hide Don't get too close, it's dark inside It's where my demons hide It's where my demons hide At the curtain's call It's the last of all When the lights fade out, all the sinners crawl So they dug your grave And the masquerade Will come calling out at the mess you've made
And lastly, Chapter 20: Bad Moon Rising is Frozen Pines and The World Ender by Lord Huron
Deep into the night With the moonlight as my guide I go wander through the pines And make my way to nature's shrine
You'll hear me howl by the light of the moon That's how you'll know that I'm coming for you Gonna find you alone in the dark of night When the World Ender comes better run for your life

Existence (part 1)
A Guilty Gear Fanfiction
Sol trugged his way though desert of Neo New York. A long day of training with the Ky had passed again. One step closer to being able to truly fight that bastard, Asuka. It wasn't hard training, per se. He just wasn't used to using tatics and complex strategies in a fight.
'More like convoluted...When did the boy-scout become such a slave driver anyway?' The passing thought allowed for a small appreciative grunt. He would never admit it, but he feels lucky to have the first king's help. Too much has happened..IS HAPPENING in this point in his life and with the upcoming showdown Sol wanted to be sure to walk away victorious, even if it means "trying his best".
As he continued his way up a steep hill, lost in his thoughts, he heard a voice called out to him.
"Fre~derick!"
Sol looked up, stunned at the name and voice. Two hundred plus years later, and her smile still makes his heart skip a beat. Waving happily as she always did before all the bullshit. Bullshit that Auska, Aria, and himself had a hand in creating. Though, Aria was more of an victim than anything.
A victim of their weakness. Thier incapability to protect the one person who meant something to the both of them. Their personal ambitions choices, and acts repentance. Their centuries age feud, many times over. It was both a blessing and a curse to have her back in this savage life.
"Tsc! You're up and about." His voice held very minuscule bit of teasing. He was eased to see her up, though her appearance caused him a bit of paused. Shoulder length silver hair with a crimson under in placed of vibrant red. Skin a shade darker than usual. Eyes of sparkling emerald. She looked like a cross between the Aria of old and Jack-o of now.
"Well when you've been out of commission for as long as I have..."
"Yeah.. I get it. So You came to pick me up? Thought you would be trying to explore with Dizzy or one of your 'sisters'."
"I ..Did..but I came to meet you..To speak with you one on one...Like old times."
Sol noticed the uncertainty in her voice. The way she played with a left front lock of her hair, a nervous tick that Aria had and made both him and Auska swear not to mentioned it. Sol folded his arms and looked towards the setting sun silently, before giving the slightest invitation to join him. Aria smiled as she walked to his side. She took a moment to drink him in. He was so different compared to what he was all those years ago and yet so familiar.
"Two centuries been good to you. Still have that infamous deposition of yours though."
His skin was a bit tanner, hair much longer; body was stronger, taller, and bulkier than she recalled. The most striking thing was his eyes, the color of fine burbon, slightly draconian in nature; and strkingly cold on the surface. Aria knew better though he always had eyes like that, even as her stringly, lone wolf, genius with ocean green eyes. His eyes held so much hidden emotion and turmoil. A hunger to succeed, a need to find a place in the world. She poked his bicep with a curious appreciation.
"Where did my twig of a scientist go?"
"I ate him."
Aria gave a faux gasp and playfully looked away. "My, oh my..Is that to say my darling Frederick is gone and all that left is you, Sol?...Eh I can live with that."
Sol clicked his teeth but let a smirk grace his lips as he felt her lean on him. Aside from the primal instinctual urges (that he belive came from the human, gear and seed within him) from feeling her body upon his, her touch was calming, her voice melodic, it been such a long time since he felt this human.
"This feels so surreal, being here with you." She clenched fist feeling a strength and power she never had in the past, no trace of TP either.
"Hmm, I would say so. You haven't been you in so long."
"Its haven't been long...Not for me. The last thing I remember is sleeping. After that, everything played like vivd dreams and nightmares, but I know that's not the case...Those 'dreams' are memories..."
The pain in her voice killed the Sol many times over. He kept towards the setting sun,l ooking at her through his left peripheral. Her smile; contemptible yet gracious.
"I know so much about this world and its workings, yet this is the first time I ever breathed its air, felt its sun, stepped on its surface. It's disorienting."
"I would suppose so. It'll take a while, but you'll find your place."
"Do I deserve one?"
That caused the immoral flame to look directly at her, his eyes burning with anger. She glared back, fist clenched.
"The hell make you think you don't? Of course you do, just as much as anyone else."
"How can you be so sure!? After everything I've done, do you really believe that I deserve to be alive?"
"Aria, you aren't responsible for that damnit!"
"Bullshit!"
Sol was stunned at the force of her voice, the fire in her eyes, threating him to interrupt.
"DON'T YOU DARE PATRONIZE ME! You might think of me as innocent, but the fucking scenes in my head say different. I've orchestrated a fucking war that put this world and humanity to the brink. I killed kliff Underson; Yours and Ky's master. "
It was then that the tears fell freely, but she held her glare. " I tried to kill my...OUR daughter...OUR FAMILY in the baptism 13 event...I tried to kill YOU. God, I tried to kill you multiple times."
She couldn't stand to look at him anymore and turned her back towards him. "You especially suffered so much because of me."
"If you remember those events, you must remember that I KILLED YOU AT LEAST TWICE!"
"I was a threat to the world at the time..You had to do it."
"Tsch! Now who's being patronizing! Just so you know if I knew I wouldn't have kiiled you."
Aria looked over her shoulder at the gear, who glare turned a look of annoyance.
"You are just as much as a victim of as anyone else. You didn't sign up to be used by Asuka, by the Universal Will or any other asshole. You were violated..Your DNA... Your very soul and existence, used as tool by forces out of your control."
The reborn woman turned directly to him face full of rage and disgust "IT WAS STILL MY SOUL! MY EXISTENCE! THAT CAUSE THIS WORLD! NO MATTER BY WHO COMMAND..IT WAS STILL..Still.Aria Hale?..Justice?...Valentine?..Jack-o?..
Aria let out a broken laugh as she felt the anger subsided and a deep emptiness set in..."My god..I don't even know who I am...am I any of these names that I said..." She looked at Sol pleadingly. "Why did you save me?"
Sol growled harshly before grabbing her by the wrist, pulling her towards him..into a surprising gentle and familiar embraced. "Cause you're Aria, Damnit."
She tried to fight his grip, fruitlessly. Whether it was due to her emotional fatigue in opposition to his gear strength or how reminiscent it felt; as if they were back in their lab, she didn't know but she quickly gave in; trembling against his chest, unconsciously gripping his back for dear life.
"Who is Aria? There so much thoughts, emotions and memories about me..you..us... but I have not existed long enough to have any one them. So what make you so sure?"
"Other than curves of your body?"
The sound of her sucking her teeth, the feel of ger punching his back, followed by her distinct pout cause a smirk on Sol's face.
"Really? Must you always be insensitive, Frederick. 200 years..and you're still horrible at flirting."
"200 years and you're still easy to tease." Sol looked down at her before sighing deeply. " Still you're as much 'Aria Hale' as' Frederick Bulsara' is me. We have their souls and past. It's unfortunate, but we are what left of those two. Tasked with living in the world the three of them created through their own selfishness. The result of their sins."
Aria let out a cold chuckle but kept her hold. " So what do that make me..make us? A replacement, a place holder, inheritors of their guilt and sin?"

How are you doing? I hope you are doing good, I just wanted to check up on ya luv. It must be as hard to write the few latest chapter of gc it must have hurt your sould as much as it hurt mine. (No hate! I love you soooooo much I don't think I can work without you.) I just read last weeks chapter and it started out so sad? I don't know what it is in english so you wil get in in danish you can just translate it, I hope thats okay.
Altså Lilly dette kapitel var noget af en rutsjebane! i starten var det så trist men så fandt Remus reader, og jeg tror ærlig talt det var det mest cute ever da de to lå og krammede hinanden! men jeg må sige at du fortjener et KÆMPE stort kram fordi du gik igennem Ninas død sammen med os. Jeg kan stadig ikke komme over at hun er død men det kommer sikkert til at give mening senere:3
I hope it was okay? sorry for any mistakes in spelling(both danish and english) hope your week will get better and better as we speak and I'm so excited for the next chapter!
sending the biggest hug your way;>
Bye!
Hey darling! I'm good, I wrote these chapters a few weeks ago, and they were definitely emotionally challenging, I really did go through her passing along with you, you should have seen me crying like a little girl in front of my computer, must have been a hilariously sad sight.
I mean, what would I have answered if somebody asked me, "What's happening? Are you alright?"
I would have been like, "I'm sorry," sobs, "It's just that I kiIled one of my sweetest OCs ever for the sake of the plot and it hurts so much, but also, I wrote a really good chapter –I can actually write sometimes– but it still pains my soul".
The chapter had to be sad, but –and you'll see this on the new chapters– Vixen and Rem's relationship will be affected, and it will change, not necessarily in a bad way... But if I keep talking I'll end up spoiling you so I'll be quiet now. Sending you lots of love!
