Character Themes

What instrumental track would play in the background of your character's story during their most meaningful moments?

It's Me by Sleeping At Last

I chose this one for Ki'to because it sounds like the light at the end of a very long, very dark tunnel. If I could replace the music at the very end of Endwalker, after the Endsinger fight, with a pause at 1:28 and continuing after the fight with Zenos, it would be this.

After the constant struggle, there was finally a sense of 'Thank the gods, it's finally over'

It also reminds me of this one line in Undertale that honestly fit with how he felt during that stretch of time.

The Jellyfish Song (Music Box Cover)

With her having lost all memory of her childhood in Thavnair, I just know that returning home is going to be one of the most meaningful moments for Orias.

This just gives me that childhood vibe, while still being sorrowful. Which, given she hasn't been to Thavnair since, if the memories come back to her upon seeing home again she will probably need a while to just... be. Not that Urianger and Thancred would mind (in fact, Thancred would probably be by her side. That ship is set to sail by ShB tbh, she put her foot down on it being him), and Estinien would just have to be patient.

Divine Creation by Sleeping At Last

This one is still upsettingly short for how it swells, but it gives a very good base for how I'd imagine Rhala's instrumental might go.

He loves the water, and one would almost exclusively find him down by the docks if he wasn't in his room or Labyrinthos. It calms him like nothing else. So in a meaningful moment, a swell of music and waves sounds like the perfect backdrop for him.

Honestly this gives me strong "Beloved son" vibes where Hydaelyn is present in the cutscenes, like the above. It just gives that sense of floating in a space of ethereal nature.

Ill Equipped by Sleeping At Last

This gives me desert child vibes, which is perfect for Lohi given he's from the U Tribe of the Sagolii Desert. So far, since he's only part way through ARR, that's really the only thing defining him right now in his head. So I could imagine this would be playing as his personal bgm until later when he gets more well-rounded as a character.

As you can see, Sleeping At Last is generally my go-to for instrumentals. Absolutely stunning music, I cannot recommend it enough.

Decided to go ahead and add one for each of my main OCs in addition to my WoL, as well as explanations because I'm very meticulous when it comes to what goes on each of their playlists.

Speaking of! I actually completed Lohi's a couple days back, so feel free to enjoy it here!

I'll probably make him another later on after he completes EW, this one's just his vibe.

Not sure who's been tagged yet, so I'll just tag anyone who's seen this and hasn't been tagged yet in case y'all want to do it too! <3

♪ blue's theme - ALL OF THEM (mostly)

mr. character development's tangible rehab from a stupidly evil power hungry bastard who has committed treason against every country to an idiot pacifist with a zebra print fedora, a moped and a license to teach yoga

( note: the 'mostly' comes from two things; one, the very very first version of this song sucked, and two, there are versions that are mostly identical )

Have you seen black sails? I don't want to spoil it but I imagine the "they live" au being similar to a certain plot in that show. Bittersweet and you're not sure if it's really a *good* life but at least they're together.....

I love how Ichigo and Rukia literally do a duet that is the cliché of romantic songs from that era

[friendlyengie]

the most niche and useless like.mischaracterization complaint I will ever have about any fan media ever is the torbjorn v engineer rap battle jtmusic did bc they give engineer Multiple lines are about how he’s gonna fuck brigitte like it’s such a massive own andidont get it I don’t understand. He would not fucking say that. He would not do that.

the common joke of shadow and amy being swifties is stupid and doesn't fit either of them (but it Especially doesn't fit shadow) so every time i see it im going to mentally replace tswift with hatsune miku . peace and love

If you're looking for new music to write or imagine scenerios to: STOP. This is for you.

A time traveler's lament Favorite part: I have been to the future, and I don't wanna scare you. But not only were you not there, they never even knew you.

Just. Don't. Die. (Or kill, don't be killed)

Friends to Enemies Confrontation Favorite part: Incipient, I stung myself. An insect unaware it’s being crushed but hoping it could save itself.

You don't want to die after all.

Both a revenge and a victory song Favorite part: And I am missing you, are so much worse. A cenotaph, a bar fight in a church, a relief to remedy. But hey, it's never as bad as it seems, the ocean will abate eventually, they cast their nets out graciously. (Come here.)

Running away to your best friend's house. They didn't know they were dead and you saved them. But you know and you'll never forget. Favorite part: If you're gonna plead, then plead with me. I'm the one who knows the story.

Lost in the wilderness (not taking care of yourself and you're not taking messages) Favorite Part: I have built a machine that built a machine and pulls the callouses straight from your hands. And if they were there from digging for some bitter truth, well ain't that too bad?

You love someone but you are terrified of hurting them. You hold them close and they start to bleed. Favorite part: I'll donate my warmth and my hands will keep you safe, the cold will wither while we wait, but surely some must die.

A moody, heavy song (which you can sulk to when you are trapped in a torture compound) Favorite part: Falling up the stairs. Heaven's heavy-handed. Today, it's theirs.

You're a rugged cowboy who escaped certain death and had to leave your former life behind, but at least the stage and the crowd love you. (Alternate versions are in the album) Favorite part: We could clean it up, starry-eye my desperation. It looks better as romance.

If you like the music or you like the scenerios listed for the songs, all of these things happen in WOE.BEGONE and you should check out the podcast!

Listening to instrumentals from the silly doo-wee-ooo show is actually something that can be so painful.

i don't belong anywhere ; i am worm food

[shimmeringweeds]

Captivating how “盗火者” (Prometheus) ends with three solos. Li Tianchen’s bit ending with a breath out- snuffing out a light; Liu Xiao ends with a whisper-putting someone to sleep; Li Tianxi with her piano gets one last action- a sharp rolled chord- a certain finality.

Beautiful how “3,2,1!” Includes singing and clapping together as a means to stir up the old dust into a tiny whirlwind. Come together and find rhythm and music together. We will create together. We will do this together. The future will be alright.

Anyway Michael Yu and Fan Ka did it again with the lyrics, and if you haven’t watched their interviews about the process yet, you really should consider it.

Time for the third installment to the Komachi Takeover! It's time fore the not at ALL silly Silly Seaside Shennanign cover! This feels like an ominous battle against a giant ship and I LOVE it! The strings instruments and the bagpipe are giving this theme EXACTLY what It needs! This is where the Komachi Takeover starts to get REALLY good!!!
