chat this MIGHT be dialtown! (closeups under the cut!! ft. their songs and why i paired them w/ the ones i did)
randy - today today (jack stauber)
the lyrics fit him heaps and it actually makes me a little sad. i didn't write out the entire verse bc i ran out of space but the full part is
"Today, today, is one of those days
That carries you slowly into next time
And as folks walk by, you see with your eye
"Hold me" is repeatedly given
and by GOD is that him. pathetic sad sopping wet man who just needs a hug please give him one oh my god
norm - chemical overreaction (will wood) (you'll notice a pattern later on)
that song has a very midwest cowboy feel to me (the line "Nettles on my saddle and a badge on my vest" is a very big give away), and yeah he IS a chemical overreaction like.. yeah. the line i picked was just the one that stood out to me the most
"My mouth is dry and my eyes are red
I’m chewing on sand ‘cause the desert’s in my head"
uhh yeah
typegingi - popipo (lamaze-p)
i honestly couldn't think of a song for them because they are just So. if you asked me to make a playlist it would be full of vocaloid bc i feel like theyd listen to it. it plays 24/7 in their mind
"ぽっぴぽっぴぽっぽっぴっぽ (x11)"
oliver - things to do (alex g)
oliver was someone i struggled with admittedly, i was gonna go for a lemon demon song bc honestly he gives those freak vibes (he IS two trucks and i stand by that) but i feel like things to do fits too. like read the lyrics its so him (or i have a very skewed view of these characters idk sorry)
"Hold on tight to this time, this place cause
Everything you know will be erased
You were born inside your head and
That is where you'll be when you are dead"
karen - willard! (will wood)
please listen to willard! its so her pretty please pls pls plssss. tired bank worker thats so so tired but wants to see the world. plss...
"You know I couldn't hurt a fly, my friend
I'm not the type to step on ants
I've nearly cried for moths that die at porchlight lamps
More for the plights of mice than men
See, I myself have been stepped on so many times
It's started to feel like my place
I've failed to fit in into those nests that scrape the sky
Is there room for me in your cage?"
bigfoot
i did his route over a year ago and didnt do it again during my replay sorry bigfoot fans love you :(
EXPLODES I LOVE EXPLAINING THESE
god/hobo - mr capgras
ITS HIM. LIKE IDKK ITS SAUR HIM.
"What you feel and what you do
Are those things really you? And if not, then what is?
(Never never never)
So, my God, what’s wrong with you?
And I’m still asking who that is"
roger - i bet on losing dogs (mitski)
hes so mitski coded its insane. we havent got much from the dialtown teaser but we DO have his dsaf personality to go off, and he was a complete mess in that.
"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"
peter - a pearl (mitski)
all dsaf holdovers are mitski coded bc it was born into their body the moment they became a phone guy. once again not much to go off in dialtown and ik he seemed rlly chill in what interaction we had but god he is my fav and you can pry my mitski from my cold dead hands. also yeah i reused his art from my dsaf drawing sorrry i didnt think it was worth it redoing the exact same ref
"It's just that I fell in love with a war
Nobody told me it ended
And it left a pearl in my head
And I roll it around every night"
mayor mingus - everything i wanted (billie eilish) / laplace's angel (will wood)
ok i couldnt pick between these two, theyre so different but so similar
everything i wanted is rlly her, like even the title is so mingus. she's dialtowns mayor, she has everything she wants, except her grandfathers recognition and she'll never get it.
"They called me weak
Like I'm not just somebody's daughter
Coulda been a nightmare
But it felt like they were right there
And it feels like yesterday was a year ago
But I don't wanna let anybody know"
laplace angel is also her to a lesser degree, the song is about the difference between good and bad, and UGH we know mingus is evil but she's also hurting and thats not an excuse and [explodes]. the little (hurt people? hurt people!) that's officially in the song title is also her. like the term "hurt people hurt people" arehghks. the repeated "if you were in my shoes, you'd walk that mile/you'd see i wear the same size as you" like. shit if ppl were in her shoes WOULD they do the same thing?? probably not!! but she feels like she HAS to do these things and assumes that everyone else would do it too. yk. i love mayor mingus so much
"You, could you take a look at me?
(Man no more than animal is made of moral chemicals)
Am I bad, am I bad, am I bad, am I really that bad?
(Any form mechanical, thank you God)
Ooh, whatever you think of me
(From the hordes of cannibals, to psych wards of hospitals)
If you were in my shoes, you’d see I wear the same size as you
(It’s a small world after all)
Oh oh right!"
billy - ???
demons dont get songs.
finally
jerry - half decade hangover (will wood)
hes sooo. even the title is him. like yeah he WOULD be hungover on the job if i was jerry id be pounding vodka by the litre. 12 german shepards each with different illnesses. yeah pass me the margarita (i have never had an alcoholic beverage in my life).
"Wonder how I didn’t die
This is not my life, I’m no survivor, I only happened to survive
Wonder how I sleep at night
Well I count pink elephants, blessings, and skeletons"
if you read to the end, thank u so much (and please go seek therapy). if you have any other song suggests lmk in the replies!! but dont tell me songs wont fit i MIGHT cry. these designs r mostly canon but i added my own flair to them (namely typegingis entire design, god/hobo having dog ear antenna (inspired by my own dt oc having cat ear antenna), peters springlock scars, mingus being way more cat then orignally and also making rogers suit just a LITTLE too big for him, showing how he really isnt fit for this position in his job. he'll grow into it eventually <3)
