A–Aventio TGCF idea?? Wherein Civil God Veritas Ratio meets the infamous Ghost King Aventurine during his first mission cuz cuz like— The "live for me" paralels?!? The one who has all the luck partner as well?!? The villain who was actually not the Villain this whole time!?!? The loving humanity a little too much it causes the downfall of a god?!?!?!?
my headcanon for if i were doing the music for season 2 of lockwood and co. (or listening to music alongside the book) is that "Just Like Heaven" by the Cure plays during the parade scene in the Hollow Boy. Like, it starts in the background maybe and then it REALLY starts as Lockwood and Lucy and Lucy jump off the float. Bombs flying, stuff on fire, Lockwood's coat flying out behind him, carnival lights twinkling- and them, together in the middle of it all.
The song has the same sort of vibe that the song from the Fittes ball has-- the sort of cheery synth vibe-- which makes perfect sense because they're both scenes where it's the two of them together. Plus it's another song by the Cure, which just fits the vibe of the show because they've used songs by them already.
And what's more fitting (/romantic) then a song that says "I'll run away with you" as they're running together?
Spinning on that dizzy edge
I kissed her face and kissed her head
And dreamed of all the different ways I had to make her glow
"Why are you so far away", she said
Why won't you ever know that I'm in love with you
That I'm in love with you?
It shows that contrast between this divide that's grown between them and the rare moments when it is just them and they work well together. To Lucy, those moments are just like heaven, even though they're bittersweet because they never last.
And like the end of the book, the song ends with the singer alone like Lockwood is after Aickmeres and what follows.
