I had a free period between class and had nothing better to do so here's what parts of Marina's Are You Satisfied? I associate with the monsters
Kevin:
"High achiever, don't you see?
Baby, nothing comes for free
They say I'm a control freak
Driven by a greed to succeed
Nobody can stop me"
Neil:
"Do I need to lie to make my way in life?"
"'Cause it's my problem if I want to pack up and run away"
"It's my problem, it's my problem if I feel the need to hide"
Andrew:
"The day I got the deal, chemically calm
Was I meant to feel happy that my life
Was just about to change?"
"It's my business if I feel the need to smoke and drink and sway"
Aaron:
"And it's my problem if I have no friends and feel I want to die"
Nicky:
"Are you satisfied with an average life?
Do I need to lie to make my way in life?"
"Sad inside in this life, unsatisfied, prayin'
Sad inside in this life, unsatisfied, waitin'"

Are You Satisfied Lyric write-up (Unity AU)
I was pulling out my hair
- Nanda clawing at their wool in the carriage
The day I got the deal,
- back in the mornig Ratau telling them about the engagement and that they should get ready to leave
chemically calm
- Nanda's face shows not much emotion
Was I meant to feel happy that my life
- back in the carriage, Nanda looks at the white robes they have to put on
Was just about to change?
- they look outside as the scene fades out
One life pretending to be the cat who got the cream
- at the first meeting, Nanda rising from their bow and widening their eyes slightly at the sight of Narinder
Oh, everybody said, "Marina Leader is a dreamer"
- some people from their church (esp corey tho) saying that smiling
People like to tell you what you're gonna be
- First night in their new room they sit on their bed with their knees to their chest, hiding their face
It's not my problem if you don't see what I see
- Nanda arguing with Narinder, they look pissed
And I do not give a damn if you don't believe
- Still arguing but sarcastic smile
My problem, it's my problem
- they do the angry Finger-chest-poking thing on Narinder
That I never am happy
- just more pissed nanda yelling, Narinder widening his eyes ever so slightly
It's my problem, it's my problem
- they turn away to leave
On how fast I will succeed
- they walk away without looking back, Narinder looks after them
High achiever, don't you see?
- fancy scene switch by nanda walking and their fleece working as a sort of curtain
Baby, nothing comes for free
- they're sitting at a desk, each word adds a higher pile of Papers and a candle buring down lower . On "free" the candle is all burned down, there are high piles of Papers and they just lay on their desk
They say I'm a control freak
- Nanda walking past some people whispering gossip
Driven by a greed to succeed
- a fabricated Version of nanda (a completely Black shadow thing aside from their clothes and a big, white grin) climbing on Narinders lap and seducing Narinder
Nobody can stop me
- the Real nanda keeps walking with a determined gaze
'Cause it's my problem if I want to pack up and run away
- they throw a book againist a wall in their room
It's my business if I feel the need to smoke and drink and sway
- nanda getting drunk in their room, each beat in the Melodie adding more empty bottles on the floor
It's my problem, it's my problem if I feel the need to hide
- drunk nanda goes to Narinder, hiding within his embrace
And it's my problem if I have no friends and feel I want to die
- tears run down their face as they hold onto Narinder tightly
Are you satisfied with an average life?
- (still drunk and sad) Nanda on Narinders lap, looking up at him
Do I need to lie to make my way in life?
- they take his hand and put it on their chest where their heart is
Are you satisfied with an easy ride?
- they turn to the side, hiding their face against Narinders torso once more
Once you cross the line, will you be satisfied?
- they hold tightly onto his hand and his clothes
Are you satisfied - Marina
I have no idea if this will be canon or not, but it does fit lol.
Here's what i roughly mean with shadow (except the clothes still have their original color. I was just lazy lol)
Tumblr media
This is basically the public view from the people of Nanda. Because they're just a commoner, despite their feats, people are convinced they just seduced Narinder for power since the people dont know how or why they're engaged in the first place.

Welsh Moony - a playlist
So from the first day I met them, @wdcmaxy has impressed upon me their Welsh Remus agenda. I decided to make a playlist to celebrate Welsh Moony in all his glory.
All songs are by Welsh artists (some of them in Welsh), and I tried to select songs that I thought fit Remus well where I could.
Full tracklist with lyrics underneath the cut!
1. Hello Sunshine // Super Furry Animals
I'm a minger You're a minger too So, come on, minger I want to ming with you In honesty It's been a while Since we had reason Left to smile Hello, Sunshine Come into my life
2. Peeled Apples // Manic Street Preachers
You know so little about me What if I turn into a werewolf or something?
3. Y Bluen Eira // The Joy Formidable
Be sy'n digwydd dywed be ddoth o'r cudd-le Pwy sy'n codi o'r geg Sy'n brathu nôl yn anheg Yn hollti y dymuniad
4. Don't Be Scared, I Love You // Bill Ryder-Jones
Those scars All those senseless scars My worst parts were when you're gone And the endless screaming dark ... Don't be scared, don't be scared I love you, I love you
5. Have A Nice Day // Stereophonics
It started straight off, "coming here is Hell" That's his first words, we asked what he meant He said, "Where you from?" we told him a lot We take a holiday, is this what you want? To have a nice day Have a nice day Have a nice day Have a nice day
6. Ysbeidiau Heulog // Super Furry Animals
Ond ar y cyfan roedd y camau yn weigion Y swigod coch yn llosgi fel gwreichion Um cam ymlaen am ddwy aneffeithlon Ysbeidiau heulog Heulog oedd ein oariad ni Heulog tan ddaeth glaw yn lliff
7. Romance Is Boring // Los Campesinos!
You're pouting in your sleep I'm waking still yawning We're proving to each other That romance is boring Still there are things I could do If I was half prepared to Prove to each other that romance is boring
8. Thank God I'm Not You // HIMALAYAS
I'm a coward, I'm a freak The scum of the Earth A liar and a cheat But I could be so much worse You could call me narcissistic You could say I'm of no worth You could call me the scorn of Satan But I could be so much worse I thank God that I'm not you
9. Fel i Fod // Adwaith
Sai'n siwr fel i fod Beth o ni moyn bod Yn y dyfodol Fy hun sidd ar top y list Pethau nai byth ffeindio Gobeithio bod pawb yn gwybod Sai'n siwr fel i fod Falle fi moyn mynd yn willt Falle fi moyn mynd i gysgu Âa-ŵŵ
10. Sexbomb // Tom Jones (ft. Mousse T)
Make me explode although you know The route to go to sex me slow And yes, I must react to claims of those Who say that you are not all that. Sexbomb Sexbomb you're a Sexbomb You can give it to me, when I need to come along Sexbomb sexbomb you're my sexbomb And baby you can turn me on
11. Suckers! // Super Furry Animals
Tell me you're a phoenix Rising far above All the Suckers in the mainstream Suckers in their slipstream Suckers in the underground Suckers on the benches Suckers in the trenches Suckers in the lost and found
12. Pure Pleasure // Drowners
It hurts like hell But I'd given myself into thinking You'd settle down Now I'm holding my eyes and blinking And I almost choked When you offered me a smoke on your cigarette Dry your eyes This is only the first death Well it took me by surprise When you held me to your chest and said I could love you in secret I could love you in secret I could love you in secret But no one can know
13. Are You Satisfied? // MARINA
High achiever, don't you see? Baby, nothing comes for free They say I'm a control freak Driven by a greed to succeed Nobody can stop me 'Cause it's my problem if I want to pack up and run away It's my business if I feel the need to smoke and drink and sway It's my problem, it's my problem if I feel the need to hide And it's my problem if I have no friends and feel I want to die
14. Dim Bendith // Super Furry Animals
Arswyd mae dy ddyddiau mor faith Does wybod lle i sbio pan fod pawb mor ddauwynebog Cysgu di heno febyn annwyl dy fam Mae'n anodd treulio mil pan fo'r ddinas mor ddi hafant Paid dyfaru byth Na, dwi'm yn chwerthin ar dy ben di
15. Cave Song // Pretty Vicious
We are children of the streets Don't listen to a word about tomorrow 'Cause the world is at our feet It's mad, so try and just relax Smoke another fag and ease your sorrows 'Cause you lads are all I need Singing, drinking in the caves All night, yeah
16. Conversations With Myself // Drowners
Where you going and how long until you're back To forget what what I just lost track I go to places where we used to go The empty bedroom has been feeling cold You must be busy, I've not heard from you for a while Feeling lonely? No I'll be alright My one track mind isn't treating me Quite as kindly as I'd have liked But conversations with myself Conversations with myself When I find the words I wanna say The door is locked and I can't find a way out
17. Torra Fy Ngwallt Yn Hir // Super Furry Animals
Nei di dorri fy ngwallt yn hir? Reit i lawr at fy nhin Nei di dorri fy ngwallt yn hir? Reit i lawr at fy nhin Fydd neb yn eistedd wrth fy ymyl Pan dwi ar y bws Nei di dorri fy ngwallt yn hir? A paid a geund dim ffys!
18. 9669 // The Joy Formidable
We don't ride, we don't ride to sunset We just ride off to our last breath This time it's over Unless I under miss my Nothing miss my number

!!!some of these songs contain heavy topics you have been warned!!!
Characters: all the twst boys + some of my oc’s
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Riddle Rosehearts: the family jewels
“Welcome to the family jewels. Coal to diamond, sold to fools. Welcome to the family jewels. Simmerin' sapphire can't keep his cool. I can't keep my cool. I can't keep my cool. Family said that I decided to live a loveless life. Is it my fault we stay divided? 'Cause I got too much pride. Pass the parcel, wrap, unwrap, and open up the locks. Out come flying all the secrets of Pandora's box”
Trey Clover: a Pearl
“Sorry, I don't want your touch. It's not that I don't want you. Sorry, I can't take your touch. There's a hole that you fill. You fill, you fill. But it's just that I fell in love with a war. And nobody told me it ended. And it left a pearl in my head. And I roll it around every night. Just to watch it glow. Every night, baby, that's where I go. Just to watch it glow”
Cater Diamond: teen idle
“Yeah, I wish I'd been, I wish I'd been, a teen, teen idle. Wish I'd been a prom queen, fighting for the title. Instead of being sixteen and burning up a bible. Feeling super, super, super suicidal. The wasted years, the wasted youth. The pretty lies, the ugly truth. And the day has come where I have died. Only to find, I've come alive”
Ace Trappola: first love/last spring
“Wild women don't get the blues. But I find that. Lately I've been crying like a. Tall child. So please hurry leave me. I can't breathe. Please don't say you love me. 胸がはち切れそうで. One word from you and I would. Jump off of this. Ledge I'm on Baby. Tell me "don't". So I can. Crawl back in”
Deuce Spade: I bet on losing dogs
“My baby, my baby. You're my baby, say it to me. Baby, my baby. Tell your baby that I'm your baby. I bet on losing dogs. I know they're losing and I'll pay for my place. By the ring. Where I'll be looking in their eyes when they're down. I'll be there on their side. I'm losing by their side”
Tumblr media
Leona Kingscholar: are you satisfied?
“My problem, it's my problem. That I never am happy. It's my problem, it's my problem. On how fast I will succeed. Are you satisfied with an average life? Do I need to lie to make my way in life? High achiever, don't you see? Baby, nothing comes for free. They say I'm a control freak. Driven by a greed to succeed. Nobody can stop me”
Ruggie Bucchi: washing machine heart
“Toss your dirty shoes in my washing machine heart. Baby, bang it up inside. I'm not wearing my usual lipstick. I thought maybe we would kiss tonight. Baby will you kiss me already and. Toss your dirty shoes in my washing machine heart? Baby, bang it up inside Baby, though I've closed my eyes. I know who you pretend I am. I know who you pretend I am”
Jack Howl: Francis forever
“On sunny days I go out walking. I end up on a tree-lined street. I look up at the gaps of sunlight. I miss you more than anything. I don't need the world to see That I've been the best I can be, but I don't think I could stand to be Where you don't see me And autumn comes when you're not yet done. With the summer passing by, but. I don't think I could stand to be Where you don't see me”
Tumblr media
Azul Ashengrotto: oh no!
“I know exactly what I want and who I want to be. I know exactly why I walk and talk like a machine. I'm now becoming my own self-fulfilled prophecy. Oh! Oh, no! Oh, no! Oh, no, oh! One track mind, one track heart. If I fail, I'll fall apart. Maybe it is all a test 'Cause, I feel like I'm the worst. So I always act like I'm the best”
Jade Leech: come into the water
“Come into the water. Do you wanna be my baby? Are you waiting to touch me? You look so good, but I keep my hands. 'Til you come into the water. Maybe I'm the same as all those men. Writing songs of all they're dreaming. But would you tell me if you want me? Cause I can't move until you show me”
Floyd Leech: hermit the frog
“They say you used to be so kind. I never knew you had such a dirty mind. Well, I went to the doctors believing. The devil had control over me and. I was finding it hard to breathe in. Finding it hard to fight the feeling. When my heart just burst like a glass balloon. I let it fly too high and it shattered too soon. I was the wrong damn girl in the wrong damn room. I broke my glass balloon. I let go of my glass balloon”
Tumblr media
Kalim Al-Asim: bubblegum bitch
“I'll chew you up and I'll spit you out. 'Cause that's what young love is all about. So pull me closer and kiss me hard. I'm gonna pop your bubblegum heart. I'm Miss Sugar Pink, liquor, liquor lips. Hit me with your sweet love, steal me with a kiss. I'm Miss Sugar Pink, liquor, liquor lips. I'm gonna be your bubblegum bitch. I'm gonna be your bubblegum bitch”
Jamil Viper: me and my husband
“But me and my husband. We're doing better. It's always been just him and me. Together. So I bet all I have on that. Furrowed brow. And at least in this lifetime. We're sticking together. Me and my husband. We're sticking together. And I am the idiot with the painted face. In the corner, taking up space. But when he walks in, I am loved, I am loved”
Tumblr media
Vil Shoenheit: primadonna
“Would you do anything for me? Buy a big diamond ring for me? Would you get down on your knees for me? Pop that pretty question, right now baby. Beauty queen on a silver screen. Living life like I'm in a dream. I know I've got a big ego. I really don't know why it's such a big deal, though”
Rook Hunt: how to be a heartbreaker
“This is how to be a heartbreaker. Boys they like a little danger. We'll get him falling for a stranger. A player, singing I lo-lo-love you. How to be a heartbreaker. Boys they like the look of danger. We'll get him falling for a stranger. A player, singing I lo-lo-love you. At least I think I do”
Epel Felmier: girls
“Is there any possibility. You'll quit gossiping about me. To hide your insecurities. All you say is "blah, blah" Girls they never befriend me. Cause I fall asleep when they speak. Of all the calories they eat. All they say is "na na na na na"”
Tumblr media
Idia Shroud: nobody
“And I don't want your pity. I just want somebody near me. Guess I'm a coward. I just want to feel alright. And I know no one will save me. I just need someone to kiss. Give me one good honest kiss. And I'll be alright. Nobody, nobody, nobody. Nobody, nobody. Ooh, nobody, nobody, nobody”
Ortho Shroud: I am not a robot
“I'm vulnerable, I'm vulnerable. I am not a robot. You're lovable, so lovable. But you're just troubled. Guess what I'm not a robot, a robot. Guess what I'm not a robot, a robot. Can you teach me how to feel real. Can you turn my power on. Well, let the drum beat drop”
Tumblr media
Malleus Draconia: ancient dreams in a modern land
“You don't have to be like everybody else. You don't have to fit into the norm. You are not here to conform. I am here to take a look inside myself. Recognize that I could be the eye, the eye of the storm. I am not my body, not my mind or my brain (ha). Not my thoughts or feelings, I am not my DNA. I am the observer, I'm a witness of life. I live in the space between the stars and the sky”
Lilia Vanrouge: goodbye, my danish sweetheart
“So, I don't blame you. If you want to bury me in your memory. I'm not the girl I ought to be, but. Maybe when you tell your friends. You can tell them what you saw in me. And not how I turned out to be. There's some kind of burning inside me. It's kept me from falling apart. And I'm sure that you've seen what it's done to my heart. But it's kept me from falling apart”
Silver (Vanrouge): seventeen
“Could never tell you what happened. The day I turned seventeen. The rise of a king and the fall of a queen. Seventeen, seventeen. Oh, you are embarrassed of me. ‘Cos I use my tongue freely. Bet you wish I couldn't speak. ‘Cos when I do, you know. I tell you why you're being weak. You want a hassle free life. Go get your upper class wife. Oh, she's got all the personality. Of a lemon that has been. Truly sucked dry”
Sebek Zigvolt: strawberry blond
“I love everybody because I love you. When you stood up, walked away barefoot. And the grass where you lay left a bed in your shape. I looked over it and I ached. I love everybody because I love you. I don't need the city, and I don't need proof. All I need, darlin', is a life in your shape. I picture it, soft, and I ache”
Tumblr media
!!requests are open!!

(This may sound random but)
For the bowuigi comic what song do you think would fit the characters in the story?
Anon, when I tell you I finished answering this ask, providing links and lyrics for the canon representation of the characters before I scrolled back up and realised you were asking about A Table Turned. Just had to share that lol, my reading comprehension is great.
Obligatory continuing under the cut because this'll get long
Luigi
Blame it on the Neon by Leaving Thomas
Luigi in the story is just so fed up with his life in the MK, he's willing to do anything to escape it. It's alluded to in the story that Bowser didn't really have to do much to get Luigi to trust him, the cracks in the foundation were already showing, so to speak. Specifically the lyric below really sums up his choices in the story.
If I just made a big mistake, it’s better made in the red shade That don’t hurt my eyes I bet this bar has seen it all, the way these walls can make you fall Woah, these colours go straight to head So I’ll blame it on the neon if I lean on him right away The way the light is glowing, how he’s holdin’ me, I wanna stay Stay out of the daylight, the moonlight, it just feels right These drinks ain’t too strong If this is all wrong I’ll blame it on the neon
Honourable mention: Boys Will be Bugs by Cavetown
Mario
The Next Right Thing for Frozen 2 by Kristen Bell
Mario is just really broken for the majority of the story, so this feels right.
This grief has a gravity, it pulls me down But a tiny voice whispers in my mind "You are lost, hope is gone But you must go on And do the next right thing" Can there be a day beyond this night?
Honourable mention: Eight by Sleeping At Last
Peach
Are You Satisfied? by MARINA
When talking to friends irl about my representation of Peach, I like to classify her as morally dark-grey. Clearly doing the wrong things but for the right reasons, and there's a part of her that knows she's doing the wrong things but she's so wound up in being perfect that she can't stand to admit when she's made a mistake.
High achiever, don't you see? Baby, nothing comes for free They say I'm a control freak Driven by a greed to succeed Nobody can stop me Cause it's my problem if I want to pack up and run away It's my business if I feel the need to smoke and drink and sway It's my problem, it's my problem if I feel the need to hide And it's my problem if I have no friends and feel I want to die
Honourable mention: Bird Song by Florence + The Machine
Bowser
Sick of the Silence by Mother Mother
I don't really know how to explain this one. Just vibes lol
I get so sick of the silence Because I'm terrified of what's inside of it Yeah, I get so sick of the silence That I have to That I have to just scream (I don't wanna hear what's deep inside of me)
Honourable mention: I'm Still Here for Treasure Planet by John Rzeznik

Fandom song animatic tournament: Side A Round 2
Are You Satisfied? - MARINA
"Are you satisfied with an average life? Do I need to lie to make my way in life? High achiever, don't you see? Baby, nothing comes for free They say I'm a control freak Driven by a greed to succeed Nobody can stop me"
Oh No! - MARINA
"I know exactly what I want and who I want to be I know exactly why I walk and talk like a machine I'm now becoming my own self-fulfilled prophecy Oh! Oh, no! Oh, no! Oh, no, oh!"
Remember that we're voting on how Iconic they are for ANIMATICS, not for the song itself. In order to make things fair, the tone and mood of the song should not affect how iconic it is (for example, a serious song should not be considered more iconic than a joke song just because it's serious)
Propaganda and animatic links of the songs under the cut:
Are You Satisfied? - MARINA
Propaganda:
No Propaganda Submitted
Animatics with the song:
Quackity Animatic
Omori
Amphibia
The Owl House Hunter Animatic
Good Omens
Oh No! - MARINA
Propaganda:
At least one marina song has got to be on this tournament
it's such a staple of mental illness in fandom and faking who you are until you figure it out
Animatics with the song:
Helluva Boss
Arcane
Deltarune Spamton Animatic
Beetlejuice
The Sun and Moon Show
Please be cautious and read the title, description and warning cards on the animatic videos if you decide to watch them. If you've got specific triggers I'd recommend even more caution when watching animatics of fandoms you don't know, since sometimes canon-typical themes don't get warnings.

Neil Sadecki | 25 | He/him | Cis man
Pinterest board | Physical description
Family's background: As the oldest son of two renowned movie stars, Neil grew up around celebrities and film crews. He was always closer to this mom and her side of the family and tried to keep a neutral relationship with his father until his parents' divorce when Neil was 17. After his mother's death, Neil moved and he has been acting as his siblings' parent since.
Personality: Neil is as perfectionist as they come and some people would say that working with him can be an... interesting experience. He usually is a very private person, setting a clear line between who he is at work and at his personal life, results of a childhood lived through magazine's headlines. He is attentive and tries to keep on with the people he interacts daily with, even if not all of them notice his subtle ways.
Against what Neil believes about himself, he constantly seeks for approval and validation.
Lyrics: High achiever, don't you see? / Baby, nothing comes for free / They say I'm a control freak / Driven by a greed to succeed
Are You Satisfied? by Marina.

ROs theme songs????
Not exactly in reference to their romance routes, more their past and character arcs.
Florian: Broken Crown by Mumford & Sons
The mirror shows not, your values are all shot; but oh, my heart was flawed, I knew my weakness
Marcella: Eight by Sleeping at Last
And I'll give all I have, I'll give my blood, give my sweat, an ocean of tears will spill for what is broken; I'm shattered porcelain, glued back together again
E: Last Words of a Shooting Star by Mitsuki
And I am relieved that I'd left my room tidy, they'll think of me kindly when they come for my things; they'll never know how I'd stared at the dark in that room with no thoughts
Ari: This Will End by The Oh Hellos
I will wait for this to end, the back and forth, the battery; for you, at last, to comprehend the kind of love of which I speak
Dimitri: Spirits by The Strumbellas
And I don't want a never-ending life, I just want to be alive while I'm here; and I don't want to see another night, lost inside of lonely life while I'm here
Julian: Angel on Fire by Halsey
‘Cause nobody seems to ask about me anymore and nobody ever cares about anything I think, and nobody seems to recognize me in the crowd, in the background screaming
Orion: Saints by Echos
Why don't you throw me to the wolves? I thought you were one; you were standing there like an angry god, counting out my sins just to cross them off
Rowan: Are You Satisfied? by MARINA
High achiever, don't you see? Baby, nothing comes for free; they say I'm a control freak driven by a greed to succeed
Kira: Gold by EDEN
And if you want you can breathe on your own, this isn't what I thought but it's beautiful; make peace with your mistakes and they'll turn to gold
Cier: Our Way by Canyon City
Look at my face, time's drawing a line, I crossed and I lost where the road divides; but I think I'm gone where I'm going tonight, I still don't know but I hope you'll find me there
Ilaria: Daylight by David Kushner
Tryna wash away all the blood I've spilt, this lust is a burden that we both share; two sinners can't atone from a lone prayer; our souls tied, intertwined by our pride and guilt

She (We never thought of ourselves) Is leaving (Never a thought for ourselves) Home (We struggled hard all our lives to get by) She's leaving home after living alone (Bye-bye) For so many years
Nobody’s Child ~ Traveling Wilburys
I'm nobody's child Just like a flower I'm growing wild No momma's arms to hold me No daddy's smiles Nobody wants me I'm nobody's child
Fell In Love With a Girl ~ The White Stripes
Can't keep away from the girl These two sides of my brain need to have a meeting Can't think of anything to do, yeah My left brain knows that all my love is fleeting She's just looking for something new, yeah Said it once before but it bears repeating now
Horns ~ Bryce Fox
She can crush every hope Got her heels stompin' down my throat She got horns like a devil Pointed at me and there's nowhere to run From the fire she breathes
Yeah Right ~ Evanescence
My one mistake was giving more and more and more More and more and more
brutal ~ Olivia Rodrigo
They say these are the golden years But I wish I could disappear Ego crush is so severe God, it's brutal out here
I Got Stripes ~ Johnny Cash
I got chains - chains around my feet I got stripes - stripes around my shoulders And them chains - them chains they're about to drag me down
Like a Rolling Stone ~ Bob Dylan
Once upon a time you dressed so fine Threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you? People call say 'beware doll, you're bound to fall' You thought they were all kidding you You used to laugh about
Trust ~ Lucy Dacus
I've learned a lot since I began But I think I was wiser then I've done too much and not enough
Lua ~ Bright Eyes
When everything is lonely I can be my own best friend I get a coffee and the paper have my own conversations With the sidewalk and the pigeons and my window reflection The mask I polish in the evening by the morning looks like shit
Pressure to Party ~ Julia Jacklin
I know I've locked myself in my room But I’ll open up the door and try to love again soon

Pannacotta Fugo // Are You Satisfied - Marina and the Diamonds
Tumblr media
High achiever, don't you see? Baby, nothing comes for free. They say I'm a control freak, driven by a greed to succeed. Nobody can stop me. Because it's my problem if I wanna pack up and run away. It's my business if I feel the need to smoke and drink and sway. It's my problem, it's my problem, if I feel the need to hide. And it's my problem if I have no friends and feel I want to die.

Song challenge
Share at least 5 songs that you associate with or remind you of your muse!
Perfect - Simple Plan
And do you think I'm wasting my time Doing things I wanna do? But it hurts when you disapprove all along And now I try hard to make it I just want to make you proud I'm never gonna be good enough for you Can't pretend that I'm alright
2. It Should've Been Me - R.I.P (@masked-genie thank you for recommending this one)
Ire dipped in flattery Nobody's been as close as me I spilled my guts And all for what?
3. Miss Murder - AFI
The stars that pierced the sky He left them all behind We're left to wonder why He left us all behind
4. Before I Forget - Slipknot
I am a world before I am a man I was a creature before I could stand I will remember before I forget
5. Take It Out On Me - Thousand Foot Krutch
So scream if you wanna, shout if you need Just let it go (take it out on me) Fight if you need to, smash if you have to Get control (take it out on me)
6. Average - Sushi Soucy
God, it's so hard to be good for your age When you know that your work's not good enough for the stage You got the skills of an idiot who got too much praise And your whole damn career just turns into a phase And the fire in your heart is beginning to fade
7. Are You Satisfied? - Marina
High achiever, don't you see? Baby, nothing comes for free They say I'm a control freak Driven by a greed to succeed
8. I Am The Weapon - Three Days Grace
Youth is broken, half of it was stolen By a world I can't unsee Youth is broken, half of it was stolen Look what you've done to me
9. Boulevard of Broken Dreams - Green Day
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
How did it become so many? I couldn't choose.

High achiever, don't you see?
Baby, nothing comes for free
They say I'm a control freak
Driven by a greed to succeed
Nobody can stop me
'Cause it's my problem if I want to pack up and run away
It's my business if I feel the need to smoke and drink and sway
It's my problem, it's my problem if I feel the need to hide
And it's my problem if I have no real life friends and feel I want to die

interview music game
thanks for the tag @lupinsmoons @murderoushagthesequel @deadgayfurrywizardsinthe70s and @ghostometrist !!
RULES: Put your playlist on shuffle. For each of the 10 interview questions, select a lyric from the random song that comes up. (Skip if there aren't any lyrics and make sure to drop the name of the song in your interview answer!) <3
1. First off, how would you describe yourself in one sentence?
High achiever, don't you see? Baby, nothing comes for free, They say I'm a control freak, Driven by a greed to succeed
Are You Satisfied? - MARINA
(that couldn’t be any more accurate omg qwq)
2. What kind of [virgo] are you?
Never thought I'd find you, But you're here, and so I love you
Glue Song - beabadoobee
(hopeless romantic virgo 100%)
3. You're visiting your favorite spot, what are you thinking about?
And I'll be in denial for at least a little while. What about the plans we made?
TV - Billie Eilish
my fav spots do always make me think of the people i’ve lost…
4. If your life was a movie, what do you think the first review would say about it?
If you bite my hand again, I will never feed you, you can call me evil
EVIL - Melanie Martinez
(i use this song to visualize getting back and healing from all of my trauma and troubles so i HOPE a movie about my life would have this vibe)
5. Say you get a book deal, what are you titling your memoir?
I don't miss you, I miss the thought of what we were
It’s All Futile! It’s All Pointless! - Lovejoy
6. What would you say about your best friends?
You ought to know that I think we're one and the same (<33)
the perfect pair - beabadoobee
7. Think back to when you had everything all figured out in high school, what was your life motto as a teenager?
Pipe down with the noise, I cannot bear my sorrow. I hate who I was before. I fear I won't live to see the day tomorrow, Someone tell me if this is Hell
VOID - Melanie Martinez
(i’m still a teenager so this is just my Now motto,,)
8. Describe your aesthetic now:
Cut you off, watch you die, Just a fairy with a knife
NYMPHOLOGY - Melanie Martinez
9. What's a lyric that they'll quote in your eulogy?
Now your name makes all the life inside me shake, But I guess God wants us apart for heaven's sake
So Alright, Cool, Whatever - The Happy Fits
(OW??)
10. And for our final question, say we believe in soulmates, what do you think their first impression of meeting you will be?
Well alrighty Aphrodite
Alrighty Aphrodite - Peach Pitt
(100% not the context in the song but it’s silly and if Someone did think of me as aphrodite i would marry them instantly)
im so late to do this and i don’t wanna retag ppl so imma just leav this open to any followers who wants to join ;>>

Fandom song animatic tournament: Side A Round 1
Are You Satisfied? - MARINA
"Are you satisfied with an average life? Do I need to lie to make my way in life? High achiever, don't you see? Baby, nothing comes for free They say I'm a control freak Driven by a greed to succeed Nobody can stop me"
Brave as a Noun - AJJ The Band
"I could go off the deep end I could kill all my best friends I could follow stylish trends And God knows I could make amends But I've got an angry heart Filled with cancers and poppy tarts If this is how you folks make art it's fucking depressing"
Remember that we're voting on how Iconic they are for ANIMATICS, not for the song itself. In order to make things fair, the tone and mood of the song should not affect how iconic it is (for example, a serious song should not be considered more iconic than a joke song just because it's serious)
Propaganda and animatic links of the songs under the cut:
Are You Satisfied? - MARINA
Propaganda:
No Propaganda Submitted
Animatics with the song:
Quackity Animatic
Omori
Amphibia
The Owl House Hunter Animatic
Good Omens
Brave as a Noun - AJJ The Band
Propaganda:
One of those songs that lists so many things that could potentially be plot elements that it fits almost every fandom. And it slaps EVERY TIME. Brave as a Noun but Sunny from OMORI. Brave as a Noun but Poptart from BCB. I could go on. Only problem is that not enough people include the song it transitions into (Survival Song)
Honestly I could put any AJJ song here, but I think Brave as a Noun is the one I see the most. Morally grey blorbo? You better believe they have a Brave as a Noun animatic.
Animatics with the song:
DSMP Nihachu Animatic
Arcane Jinx Animatic
Your Turn To Die
World of None
DSMP
Please be cautious and read the title, description and warning cards on the animatic videos if you decide to watch them. If you've got specific triggers I'd recommend even more caution when watching animatics of fandoms you don't know, since sometimes canon-typical themes don't get warnings.
Please keep in mind that I don't know all the media and fandoms of the animatics provided as examples and I don't have the time (nor the will) to research them all. Don't come into my notes or my ask box complaining about them being included, I will simply block you. If a ship animatic included is about an adult and a minor, do tell me and I'll take it out of the post
ALSO keep in mind that I don't know all the artists submitted; in fact, even if I do know them I do not know absolutely nothing about them as people (I do not have twitter nor tiktok) and I could not POSSIBLY have the time to research ALL of the artists' controversies and what came of them so PLEASE don't flood my inbox with the artists' entire crime list.
