Hadn't listened to Bastille in a while so I put a Playlist on at work and geez. I know it's low hanging fruit and applies to so many ships but "oblivion" really does take me out at the knees re Beauyasha. Every time.

The silence isn't so bad
'Til I look at my hands and feel sad
'Cause the spaces between my fingers
Are right where yours fit perfectly

hi :33
the stars lean down to kiss you
I wanna be your love
some nights I stay up, cashing in my bad luck
well, once when I was eight, everything was going great
I love my faygo, my nyquil pills, shaggy
send me "hi" and I'll shuffle my playlist and give you the first line of each song as a poem

Mina ( @legaciestold ) ▌sent 97 for a starter.
Vlad hadn't been able to resist positioning himself as a shadowy presence in Mina's slumbering mind the night prior, as she lay alone in bed while Harker traveled for a short time on business. To him, the illusive dreamscape he had created was one of dark beauty: mist curling through a garden, the full moon high overhead, the flourishing blood-red roses adorned with subtle thorns surrounding the bench of stone where she sat. Seated beside her with an arm wrapped around her waist, he grasped her chin between his thumb and forefinger firmly, yet just short of causing pain — a stark contrast to the grazing of his lips along her jaw, her cheekbones, her neck. So vivid was it that he was himself no longer certain whether it was a repetition of a piece of a memory he was showing her, or a vision they had both grasped control of. When his mouth pressed against Mina's ear, Vlad murmured, "If my voice could reach back through the past, I'd whisper in your ear, ' Oh darling, I wish you were here. ' And you are."
When she seeks him out the next morning at Carfax, he presents himself as thoroughly heedless of what had transpired in that tenebrous fantasy. "Miss Murray, I wasn't expecting you." Glancing up from the papers upon his desk, he rises to his feet to offer her a nod. "Please, sit. What is it that I can do for you?"

Its almost 2AM and it's been snowing the past 2 days and outside its that dark-but-also-light that happens after it snows and honestly I think this is what Owl City meant by Vanilla Twilight

Owl City - Vanilla Twilight
I'll find repose in new ways Though I haven't slept in two days 'Cause cold nostalgia chills me to the bone But drenched in vanilla twilight I'll sit on the front porch all night Waist deep in thought because when I think of you, I don't feel so alone
I don't feel so alone I don't feel so alone As many times as I blink I'll think of you tonight
I'll think of you tonight
When violet eyes get brighter And heavy wings grow lighter I'll taste the sky and feel alive again And I'll forget the world that I knew But I swear I won't forget you Oh if my voice could reach back through the past I'd whisper in your ear "Oh darling, I wish you were here"

vanilla twilight - owl city (ocean eyes)
owl city definitely isn’t my usual type of music, but it’s a nice change and pretty enjoyable! this was, again, recommended by a friend who i don’t think has tumblr, so they can’t be tagged. it’s a pretty sad song, despite the slightly upbeat or cheerful-sounding instrumental, and i love the way it picks up slightly nearer the end. i could listen to the vocals all day – they're honestly my favourite part of the song, and the lead singer’s voice is so clear and satisfying to listen to, plus it does remind me of the 2000s in its style. the instrumentals have a really interesting, light and ethereal sound which i really enjoy, and this type of music for me is pretty relaxing. the song’s general mood is comforting but melancholy, and also sort of nostalgic - it reminds me of something, but i’m not sure what. i really enjoyed listening to this and owl city is definitely a band i will listen to more in the future!

Since request are open, I have a question, do you have any personal voiceclaims for the M6? :) Have a new day or night too
-🦞
The Arcana HCs: Voiceclaims
~ Hello again, venerable lobster :)
The original creators gave brief descriptions of what the M6's singing voices sound like in an ask arcana post about karaoke. My taste in music is rather eclectic, so I'm apologizing in advance in case I can't think of a song/singer that works super well for them. I tend to make up scenarios for songs instead of thinking of specific characters so all song assignments were made in the last hour ...
- brainrot ~
Julian
Jeff Goldblum
The developers said it themselves. Julian's voice and mannerisms are heavily based off of Jeff Goldblum characters. If you want to know what he sounds like, find a clip that has Jeff Goldblum singing in it
That aside, he has a "limited singing ability" and tends to "talk-sing" through songs, but is "great at duets"
Asra
Described as having an "airy, intimate voice," but is bad at karaoke because they don't get off of the couch
I know it might feel like this song just got finished being overplayed, but considering that he's a polyglot this song and voice and the lyrics just fit him so well:
Shinunoga E-Wa by Fujii Kaze
Edited to add: Vanilla Twilight by Owl City. It's literally them
Nadia
"a silky voice with impeccable vibrato ... but she only sings karaoke alone in the bath." Maybe she'll make an exception for MC
This song and voice don't quite capture the vibrato part, but the warm tone, alto pitch, and commanding power really scream Nadia. She did lead an army into battle! (Muriel's route)
Queen of Kings by Alessandra
Muriel
"a gravelly grumble that he is convinced is useless for singing"
This is with the assumption that he one day gets a moment completely to himself and just lets it all out. Considering how he was the first to know what was coming, I feel like this song sung with this kind of voice almost embodies him
The Sound of Silence (covered) by Disturbed
Portia
"a throaty, powerful voice. She brings the house down"
She goes for ballads, apparently, and seems to be an alto considering how she "squeaks on the high notes." If I listen to this with my eyes closed it's like she's in the room with me
Babooshka by Kate Bush
Lucio
"an overdone musical theater voice but he is tone deaf"
In a different ask arcana, the creators assigned him the song Victorious by Panic! at the Disco. I can only briefly imagine how easy it would be to sing that song badly. Which is why I unfortunately don't have any songs or voices to suggest.
"he will shout out the high notes and power through the rest"

Songs to listen to for maximum Tails angst, as well as a run down of how I daydream to them
Enjoy, or don't, and feel free to add your own. I'm always looking for new music recommendations.
Multiple paragraph incoming, you have been warned
The Tornado, Owl City
Starting off with an absolute BANGER !!!!! I'm obsessed with Owl City so don't @ me about this lol. In this song Adam Young is telling a story about a young boy delivering papers on his bike, when a tornado hits. Miraculously, he survives.
To me, this song is about Tails gearing up to leave in the tornado. As he begins to fly over the ocean a storm hits, and eventually turns into a tornado. As the music crescendos the storm gets worse, and eventually the plane crashes into the ocean (specifically at 2:05, you can't tell me it doesn't sound like a Wii sports snorkeling mini game). By the time the lyrics come in he's grabbed the chaos emerald from the back of his plane and he's trying to get out of the water. At the line "the shadows slowly melted as I was hunkered down" Tails spots angel island and he flies up there and it's a happy ending yayyyy
I Was an Island, John-Allison Weiss
Honestly I don't have like a particular scene or daydream to this. This song just makes me feel things when I listen to it, and I think Tails would really relate. I think specifically NINE would relate actually, but any Tails variation will do tbh
"I can't do this alone anymore, I'm no good on my own anymore. What did I do to do deserve this? What did you do to me? Baby come back, you know I don't wanna be free." Is just something I feel like Nine would relate to idk
Bugbear, Chloe Moriondro
I don't have a particular daydream to this one either but this song is so Tails to me. This is so him. Y'all aren't listening she said "my brain is surrounded by school kids who all got their valedictorian course, while I couldn't care enough about my 3.8, no matter how hard I try I'm still not trying hard enough to be... Great." YOU'RE TELLING ME HE DOESN'T RELATE TO THAT ?!!?!!
Talk To Me, Cavetown
This is so Sonic talking to Tails to me. "You don't have to be a prodigy to be unique, you don't have to know what to say or what to think, you don't have to be anybody you can never be, that's alright, let it out, talk to me." Is something Sonic has said to Tails at least once and you can't convince me otherwise.
This song is just so comforting. Listening to this makes me warm with brotherly feels.
Vanilla Twilight, Owl City
I used to cry to this song, so tread lightly sympathetic criers lol.
This daydream takes place sometime after Sonic Frontiers when Tails decides to go his own way, leaving Sonic by himself. It switches between their POVs depending on the lyric. For example, one of Sonic's lyrics is "cause I'll doze off safe and soundly, but I'll miss your arms around me, I'll send a postcard to you dear, cause I wish you were here." And one of Tails' lyrics is "I'll find repose in new ways, though I haven't slept in 2 days, cause cold nostalgia chills me to the bone."
They'll reunite someday I swear
Overgrown Garden, Beetlebug
Ow ouch ffff-ouch ouchie owwwieeeeeee ಥ⁠_⁠ಥ sorry guys this one involves major character death lol
So the actual song is about an abusive relationship using flower metaphors and symbolism, but I didn't know that when I started listening so this daydream has nothing to do with that. With that being said...
Every chorus is Tails at a different age wondering if Sonic will abandon him, no matter how much Sonic reassures him the thought just sticks in the back of his mind even if he doesn't voice it. Things don't start to get juicy until the 3rd verse, "The rhododendrons crimson flame, set fire to the sleepy air, and lit the early morning haze, that glistened in your tangled hair." I understand that the flame is a metaphor and there's no actual flame but I don't care, in my daydream there's actual flames because Sonic and Tails are in the middle of a flower field that's been engulfed in them.
At the lyric "You place a crown of marigolds on my head, and then you said, as you tried to pull your bloody hands away" Sonic is laying against the only tree in sight, a big bloody wound in his abdomen with Tails trying to stop the bleeding. And then when the chorus comes in again, it's Sonic comforting Tails while he bleeds out on a battlefield. When Tails asked "I wonder if you'll leave me, behind someday, among the wildflowers and lilies, sleeping by the way" he meant like runaway and abandon him on an adventure, not die in a burning flower field you idiot ಥ⁠_⁠ಥ
Blue Hair, TV Girl
For maximum feels, listen to Vanilla Twilight directly after listening to this
I feel like a lot of y'all are already gonna know this one, and I respect that. I'm not super sure what this song is actually about but I like their funny words so it's okay lol
This is another song from Sonics POV to me. It's Sonic talking to his friends at different times about Tails growing up and not needing him anymore. In this case, Tails has to "cut her blue hair off" and Sonic is the blue hair if you couldn't tell lol like "and I tried, to hold her, but it didn't really last long, she's getting older. I guess she's gotta cut her blue hair off".
There's also the line right before that one "what seems so blue in the sunlight, by the night was a pale green" blue and green are literally their eye colors this song was meant for them.
This isn't all of them, we'd be here all day if I listed every single one lol. Don't be surprised if I follow up with more song rec posts bc I love talking about music, and please give me some recs as well

Ohhh maybe vanilla twilight? Or "the stars lean down to kiss you/ and i lie awake and miss you" (huge rec for my favorite owl city song lol)
oh i Love that song <3 owl city has been my bestie since high school and vanilla twilight is one of my favorite "tim in the cloning basement" songs.
so, of course, this one goes to tim, in the cloning basement. he can't sleep. he slips out of his room and pads downstairs. it's 3 am. no one else at titans tower is awake; he doesn't need to worry about being seen. all he has to worry about is why he can't get kon back.
he pulls the tissue samples from attempt 48. he needs to run some analysis to understand what went wrong. it's hard to clone a kryptonian without the embryo simply not developing as it should; something about the telomeres being too short activates apoptosis very quickly. he doesn't understand how cadmus did it. maybe he should look into finding them again, after they went underground. but time spent on that is time not spent here, in the lab, where he's so close to a breakthrough (to kon) that he can almost taste it. he knows he can get kon back. he has to be able to get kon back. so if he just tries a little harder—
alternatively, this is the fic where tim gets frostbite from the cryotome while trying to slice tissue samples (done at -20C, and requires fine enough movements that it's really hard to do while wearing thick gloves) because he doesn't take a break when he knows he should. who cares if he's losing feeling in his fingers a little bit? he just needs to get this done. the sooner he's done slicing, the sooner he can start staining, and the sooner he gets the samples stained, the sooner he can analyze them, and the sooner he can analyze them, the sooner he can figure out what's going wrong. he needs figure out what's going wrong so that he can get kon back.
he needs to get kon back. instead, he gets two huge frostbite blisters on his fingers that will eventually scar. he never does tell anyone where those scars came from. he's got enough other scars they just kind of blend in.
