Crane Wives songs will be like *folk guitar intro* ooowoahhhhhhhh ooowaoahhhhh. I am a wolf in the river. I am worried that I'm too volatile to ever be in a stable relationship. *guitar interlude with some percussion now* ooowoahhhhhhhh ooowaoahhhhh. There is ash in my hair. I am so tired all the time. I think I'm a bad person.

"Abandon all your stupid dreams
About the girl I could have been, my dear
'Cause in the night I know you burn with feelings
I cannot return, my dear
Oh, my dear"
I feel nostalgic. inspired by @cherri's art for desertduo + crane wives

Tongues and Teeth
-song by the Crane Wives
-fanfic by The Crazy Husky
No. 2
(This is a project I made for Crane Wives x Life Series. Scott basically enjoys singing here and plans to do a project to sing every song by the Crane Wives. All lyrics belong to Crane Wives, and I own the fanfic.)
Pearl muttered unhappily as she hefted her guitar up. Scott was also grouching, apparently disagreeing with Grian as well, since he made them sing. He made both of them sing a song about him and Scar.
Scott could also see that Pearl was on the edge of breaking. She hated being forced to do stuff. Grian had overheard them singing, and it was as embarrassing as it sounds. Cleo also told Scar, so Pearl had beaten her up so hard she was sent to infirmary for three days.
Scott began thinking of anything to describe their relationship… the song Tongues and Teeth came to his mind, and he began furiously trying to remember the lyrics.
Recently, he and Pearl had listened to way more Crane Wives songs than they’re supposed to, but at least they’re both completely consent with that, although things get awkward afterwards. He could remember a few more song lyrics than before, so he was confident to hit Grian hard enough so he wouldn’t bother them anymore.
He tugged Pearl’s shoulder and whispered, “Tongues and Teeth. That one.” She thought of it for a moment, then nodded. Giggling, she tuned her guitar and readied, casting a final glance at me. I nodded, then we began.
She immediately began strumming the strings of the guitar, starting the song. He prepared himself for the first lyrics. “I've grown a mouth so sharp and cruel, it's all that I can give to you, my dear.” He sung as she slowed down the speed of the music.
“And when you come in quick to steal a kiss, my teeth will only cut your lips, my dear.” Scott gave Pearl a tiny smile while Grian and Scar watched intently with extreme confusion. “And I know that you mean so well, but I am not a vessel for your good intent,” Scott nudged Pearl with his shoulder, and she took the singing part while simultaneously playing the guitar. “I will only break your pretty things. I will only wring you dry of everything, but if you're fine with that, you can be mine like that,” She sung.
“~~~” She began playing the guitar with such intensity that he though it would basically just give up and break like Pearl’s first guitar (she smashed it, then smashed Scott’s). Grian looked at Scar, who shrugged back at him. “Dunno,” he muttered.
“Abandon all your stupid dreams
About the girl I could have been, my dear. 'Cause in the night I know you burn with feelings I cannot return, my dear, oh, my dear,” she sung, then shot Scott a look to signal him to continue. “You gotta know that this won't last. Desperation will erase the fact I'm keeping all,” he raised his voice slightly.
“Of the answers in my cigarette box. Yeah, the answer's in the second before the other shoe drops. And if you're blind to that, I am fine with that,” As soon as he finished, Pearl launched into another series of intense guitar playing. “~~~”
“I think she means us,” Grian muttered to Scar. Scar glared at him, shocked, then said, “Nah, it’s probably just the song.” Grian slapped him then looked back at the two preforming pair. By then Cleo, Martyn, BigB, Impulse and Ren had came over to watch, but Scott and Pearl continued, ignoring them and focused on their original goal.
“Oh, I will ruin you,” Pearl sung, then passed it to Scott. “Oh, I will ruin you.” He sung without missing a beat. “It's a habit - I can't help it. I know that you mean so well, but I am not a vessel for your good intent,” Pearl nodded slightly then they joined each other into the final verses.
“I will only break your pretty things. I will only wring you dry of everything, and if you're fine with that. If you're fine with that,” They sung, with Pearl continuing her part as the guy with the guitar. “I will poison all your happy thoughts,” Pearl’s shoulder muscles suddenly tensed. “I love you like the ashes in my cigarette box, and if you're fine with that,” Pearl gripped the guitar harder. “You can be mine.” She kept playing, though Scott could see her excitement vibrating from her body. “If you're fine with that, you can be mine~”
She then followed up with her amazing guitar skills, playing through the rest of the song like an expert. Scott sung to the tune, then they concluded by Scott whooping the final part and Pearl trailing off with her guitar.
Everyone began clapping, with only Scar and Grian feeling very flustered and was looking away from each other, nervous. As soon as the clapping ended, though, Pearl hefted the wooden guitar and smashed it on Scar’s head. It broke into splinters. “That’s for making me sing in public!” She screeched. Scar scowled back, brushing wood bits off his head.
Scott sighed. He’s gonna have to make an unbreakable guitar for Pearl next time. Either she’s gonna take it out on Scott or someone else is ending up in the infirmary.

Tongues and Teeth by the Crane Wives teaches us that maybe the fucked up person doesn’t want to be fixed and maybe they’re a little bit hot and sexy for that
and I think that’s really rather hot and sexy of it

There's Always a Beginning
We love trips to the past here.
--
“He is a peculiar thing.”
For the last handful of hours, and who really knew how much time could have passed when the pair of moirails got together, Harlan’d been talking, while taking up entirely too much space on the couch beside him, about this or that as it related his church’s sect. Of course, Orfuse always does his best to listen, but sometimes the rambling will fly right over his head. Church stuff isn’t exactly built with the lowblood in mind, he tried not to think about what happens in them.
It is usually politics or murder, often both, and how annoying he found the other followers. Sometimes their leaders. How frustrating they could all be. Never before did he describe a fellow clown as something so kind as peculiar.
When the curious statement comes out of his moirails mouth, his eyes spring up from the historical text he’d been rewriting, having seen the events himself and finding key information missing from what was documented, and a playful smile quickly overtakes his features. A constellation of freckles shifting to broadcast his delight.
Harlan's brows furrow for a moment, then he raises one.
“Harly, have you,” he pauses for emphasis, “Made a friend?” His genuine stab of excitement at the idea of his beloved moirail going out and making friends only sort of masked by the teasingness of his tones. Orfuse was well aware of the difficulties his beloved partner had with making friends, after all.
Well, difficulty is the wrong word. Charisma oozes out of the man in waves that could snuff out even the harshest of critics, after all. Even the Empress herself would be taken with you, Orfuse once told him with glee, a statement that was only met with a satisfied hum at the time.
Resistant is a better word. Friends are not his top priority.
“Friend is a strong word.” Harlan objects, case in pointing the argument he didn’t know was being had, as he takes the opportunity of the oracle's temporary distraction to rest his head in the smaller man’s lap and allow himself to stretch out fully across the couch. Even now his legs frustratingly hang a bit over the edge. Immediately Orfuse’s hands are in his hair, nails worked into his scalp in the form of a rhythmic massage. “He is just interesting, this Thanat Lycaon.”
Orfuse pauses and Harlan turns his head slightly to get a look at the strange expression that takes up residence and contorts that freckled face. “Love, are you alright?”
He just shakes his head and laughs the strange reaction off.
”Peculiar and interesting, is he?”
”Yes, we’ve had a few conversations.”
”Conversations plural?” His mock surprise makes Harlan roll his eyes.
”I am capable of many conversations plural.”
”I know!” He chimes back, following another delighted laugh. “I think I’d like to see this man that has captured your attention for plural conversations with my own eyes, is all. I’d like to meet this Thanat Lycaon.”

Ummmmm...Not to alarm anyone but I know that you mean so well. But I am not a vessel for your good intent. I will only break your pretty things; I will only wring you dry of everything.
But if you're fine with that, you can be mine like that.
