Teenage Dream

McShep, 3.3k, rated E, for the SGA Summer Music Fest

An email with some old pictures prompts Rodney and John to wonder what things would be like if they'd met when they were younger.

okay someone asked me to elaborate so here’s the imodna teenage dream post:

minor spoilers for campaign 3 below the cut (only explicitly up to episode 23)

i will preface by saying this is not something i’ve been thinking about for very long. it just came on shuffle while i was cooking earlier and i ran in my room and made that post. also, i usually do character song analysis just for myself in google docs (which i did a lot during c2) so i’m going to try to make this comprehensible and just point out the most relevant lyrics (because if i talked about all the lyrics, which i could, this would be way too long)

verse 1: most important lines are “I know you get me, so I let my walls come down” and “before you met me, i was alright, but things were kinda heavy” which to me is specifically imogen pov. she has specifically used “letting walls down” imagery to refer to her powers and talked about how meeting laudna was important because she was different from everything else (musical), here meaning “not heavy”. 

pre-chorus: the pre-chorus is mostly fun and i read as the life they could have together/want to have past all the bad stuff (”laudna, lets move here when everything is done!”). a notable line is “you and I, will be young forever” which could be kind of melancholically interpreted as a nod to the fact that laudna will never age. 

chorus: there’s a lot here. the idea of the “teenage dream” is something i found interesting and didnt even make the connection of imogen having literal dreams when i made the original post. however, i think the “you make me feel like i’m living a teenage dream” is from both of their pov because neither of them got a normal childhood/teenage life. love is something neither of them expected to experience. a more literal approach for imogen is the fact that she is racked with nightmares all the time but laudna can be her waking “dream”. “let’s run away and don’t ever look back” of course references laudna going from town to town and eventually finding imogen and taking her away from her home where she was struggling. “my heart stops when you look at me. just one touch, now baby i believe, this is real” i see more from laudna’s pov. laudna’s heart is something references a lot in fanfic (i’ll talk about this more at the bridge), specifically that it beats very slowly so the heart stopping being read as literal is funny to me. the next part of that lyrics comes from my own interpretation of laudna’s feelings. i don’t think laudna would ever believe imogen (or anyone) could truly love her romantically, so it would take a real “touch”/a explicit confession or move for her to “believe this is real”.

verse 2: more cute stuff, i see this as a recounting of their time on the road before bell’s hells and realizing how well they work together.

bridge: “i’ma get your heart racing” is just such a fanfic imodna line. a lot of the time in fanfic i’ve read laudna’s heart “racing” is written as it just beating at a normal human speed. i find it endearing to imagine imogen taking this (or laudna’s ability to blush, which is also used often) as a “challenge”, for lack of a better word. “let you put your hands on me” i think could go either way but i generally hear as more of an imogen line as well. whether this is because imogen seems to be less physically affectionate than laudna, with people that aren’t laudna (perhaps because of her powers and how being close to people makes them worse). but it’s also worth nothing the fact that laudna is generally viewed as scary or potentially harmful, especially in relation to her hands at times (long nails, black ichor, more recently breaking the stone etc.) so imogen saying she wants laudna to “put her hands” on her is important. 

i think that’s all for now! the rest repeats the pre-chorus, chorus and bridge. like i said i thought of this today so if i think of anything else to add i will later. overall just the idea of a “teenage dream” and the imagery it has makes it a kind of fun pop imodna song that can actually be sad if you examine it but doesn’t have to be. if you read this whole thing you’re insane but i love you if anyone has anything else to add feel free to do so. also if someone has posted about this/put this on an imodna playlist before pls lmk! otherwise if you think my takes are way off and you want to tell me about it please be kind. <3

noooo dak what are u doinggg?? at least the hollywood party empress of hollywood had a good time despite getting stood up (and yes ! carlos-roxy moment !!! hell yeah!)

i was gonna ask about unreleased btr songs and if ur gonna include roxy writing any of them! but since thats already answered with shot in the dark (almost forgot that song existed tbh lol) are there any non-btr songs that you feel roxy wouldve written? maybe in her pre-btr days? (with as much/as little spoilers you wanna share of course....)

dak... :(((

at least our girl is pretty good at making the best of bad situations as long as her friends are around to help! (there's another fun roxy-carlos moment next chapter, by pure coincidence)

i was like super worried no one would remember shot in the dark bc it kinda sucks tbh i understand why it wasn't released... but i felt it worked out situationally and since rox isn't feeling 100% its def not going to be the best song she's ever written! with as little spoilers as possible, there will be non-btr songs written by miss roxy but as we saw in the last chapter, gustavo isn't thrilled with the idea of her either marketing herself to other producers as a songwriter or even simply offering up her songs to other artists. in order for this to happen, she needs to have some sort of conversation with him about that and a launching point where she thinks her songwriting talents are going to be more useful elsewhere than in rocque records... yikes!

as i kinda talked about in one of our previous asks, i am certainly not a songwriter so i wont be including anything of my own writing more than maybe a few fudged or changed lines by roxy here and there which will ultimately end up being polished as she writing process continues (like what was happening with "halfway there" last chapter).

also! there's a whole wealth of unreleased btr demos listed on the fan wiki and available for free on youtube that i've been exploring. i don't really think that any of them will end up in the story just because they're not as well known - if known at all - as the songs on their albums. plus i'm going to do my best to work in at least a few of the the songs on albums 2 and 3 that didn't make it into the show... but you never know! i've still got soooo much to write before this story is over!!

as for her pre-btr days... we all know she was in a band that broke up due to the other members taking some of her songs and trying to pass them off as their own... and she did submit a 15 song portfolio at the beginning of this story to her boss who ultimately decided not to do anything with it... hm... i wonder if that'll ever come back...

#thats all she wrote fic #ash talks tasw #thank you!!!!!!! #we can all headcannon our favorite pop songs that roxy could've written... teenage dream by katy perry you are not safe from roxification
