"Beneath the Brine" by The Family Crest for CMAR Storm Dion. Specifically someone singing about Dion. Or maybe "Why have you taken me from the fall?" Could be a reference to Raz' efforts to pull Dion from her spiral,,, maybe the refrain is from Dion's POV but the rest of the song is like,,,, people's perspective on the Storm/the Rainwoman? idk the song vibes, expecially musically. it's got the gravitas of standing in a steadily worsening downpour and fighting your way through it to find the eye hurting at the center of it
god, it does. this is the song that plays during that confrontation, for sure.
lyric interpretation under the readmore
Oh, young love of mine / She sleeps beneath the brine
And oh the sound, the tick / The weighty click of her heart against my spine
Dion's old self, on the brink of breaking.
Now the dark is nigh / And she lays here at my side
But like a steady squall / Her arms they fall and her legs, they grasp me tight
That old self having drowned, in her mind. An innocent young girl, left to die. Protected in the dark, in the storm.
Oh, young love, young dear / Why have you taken me in your fall?
All of my love, all of my life / Given to you, sacrificed
Raz running away. Dion deciding to run. To leave that family behind. Sacrificing the hope that they might change.
Oh, my waking world / I leave you for a girl
Cast away into this blight / Swimming blindly through the night
Dion running, the first time, from the aquatos. She leaves them for that girl, the one in her heart that she knows will never get the love she needs here. Casting away everything she knows.
Now my heart is bound / Like a plague upon this sound
And oh, it slips away, such soft decay / Then it grows
The years flying by. The storm growing, inside. Dion ran away, but that pain followed. Her heart is still bound. And that pain? It grows.
Oh, young love, young dear / Why have you taken me from the fall?
All of my love, and all of my life / Given to you, sacrificed
Dion running, becoming the storm.
Stay clear of the wreckage / She goes down, down, down
The storm growing, growing, growing. She goes down, down, down
And she burns like the sun / And it all falls away
Take your time, and I'll take mine here today
But it cuts like a knife / And we're bound here as the night, it breaks away
And it all goes down
Hurting, hurting, hurting. Swirling and living in this pain for years. The storm rages with the passion of the sun, the world falling away, leaving nothing but that pain that sorrow.
Oh, young love, young dear / Why have you shaken me from the fall?
All of my life, all of my days / Given to you, cast away
Raz reaching out. All of Dion's life before having been for Raz, all of Raz's efforts back then for Dion.
Here's to the war / Here's to the night
All of my love, sacrificed
The storms end. Here's to the love of a family. One that no fear could break apart. No matter what. All of their love. Sacrificed
Soft and kind / Cold as ice
Hold yourself beneath the brine
Smooth as wine / Black as night
Hold yourself beneath the brine
Dion having tried to drown herself in that sorrow. The darkness that still lies within her heart. The feeling that it will never truly fade.

presses light kisses along the other's face ——— on her nose, cheeks, forehead, lips lingering against her cheekbone. ' happy valentine's day, cana-san ! ' ( i saw that cana was in need of smooches & i am here to deliver )
GENTLY, GENTLY, THE RAINWOMAN DELIVERED HER AFFECTIONS LIKE A SPRINGTIME SHOWER. Fluttering kisses peppered her visage and evoked a surge of emotion that the Seer was a lovely gift to receive Juvia’s affections, especially today of all days. Cana could not guess on what she deserved to be bestowed such tender affection and she wasn’t going to question why. She was already happy with receiving a kiss from Lucy, but it seemed the lush would not be spared being gifted with love by the people she held dear and near to her heart. Cana merely accepted the water mage’s kisses with gratitude and grace afforded by the bounds of their friendship.
❝ Thanks Juv. Happy Valentine’s Day to you too. ���

dionygula becoming something of an urban legend,,,, i am down for that. some people claim they can hear wailing in the rain, and not the kind of wailing the wind makes. some even claim it sounds like sobbing—especially when the rainy figure is just barely in view. the rain is thickest around her, around this rainwoman, battering anything that dares come near.
but there's a sense of melancholy in the foreboding, a sense of hurt hurt hurt in the far-off wailing.
...and then the psychonauts catch wind of this supposed unending storm
how long is it before they catch wind of it? do the delugionaries realize they cant control what theyve created? do the psychonauts send raz on the mission to investigate? (considering its been long enough that hes a skilled hydrokinetic at that point)
does raz get there and hear the wails, the sobs, and stand there? in the middle of the storm? while everyone has run for shelter, does razputin aquato stand in the rain, let it consume him, until he sees the figure in the rain? does he stand there, unmoving, letting the figure cry as he realizes this storm isn't an attack, it's sorrow, years of sorrow, all pouring down around him? does he feel the loneliness in every raindrop? does he take a step forward and tell the storm he's there? does he tell it he's here to help? does the storm hear kindness? for the first time in so many years, does the storm feel cared for? does raz get just close enough to the figure? just close enough to see that it's the one he thought he lost all those years ago? the older sibling he never got to meet?
and what does he do then?
