fanmix: stronger in the splendour of a lucid moon (caos | zelda/lilith)

[fiachairecht]

songs for the queen of hell and her high priestess. have i seen season 2? no. am i looking forward to putting myself through season 2? questionable! i asked hollowbolding for song advice and they said 'anything about watching your terrible husband be ignominiously murdered by his children and taking his place to serve your queen who has incidentally also fucked over her terrible husband to take his place', and — i tried. probably there is less murder and more general figuring-out-lust-and-divinity-and-service-without-any-boys than is ideal.

i. haythor lord of the lost
darling, your eyes were full of darkness
now someone else holds what was mine
darling, your womb gave birth to stars and light
now there is hollowness inside
and emptiness behind

ii. the annihilation sequence jordan reyne
step one: use important words
step two: pretend that what you heard is
three: deep and meaningful and
four: lust, love, are political

iii. running from wolves shireen
we've been weeping, while we were weaving oh
and we're dreaming of a future for ourselves oh.
we've been spinning, biting and gnawing oh
while we're dreaming it again and again and again.

iv. not human ionnalee
oh, oh, you make my waters flow
now look how tall I grow
i'm not human
oh, oh, with you it's magical

v. love you to death starset
i beg to serve, your wish is my law
now close those eyes and let me love you to death
shall i prove i mean what i'm sayin', beggin'
i say the beast inside of me is gonna get you

vi. tempted collide
lies the night conscious one
i am earth, i am water, i am ground
i am wanting, give me breath
it's all transparent

vii. from hell with love beast in black
another voiceless cry
another hopeless try
i wish you'd open your wings and take me inside
from hell with love i write

viii. hunting the dreamer dark sarah
darling it's me, don't you know this is me?
i said i will come and show what you've done.
the moon is my guide there's no other light,
i'm staring at you, your eyes in the night.

ix. vervain liv kristine
i have loved in silent ecstasy
i feel the pulse and the heat
every move is a hunting breed
it's a creeping desire

x. my champion (berlin) vuur
my champion, enlightened soul
unchain the burden of all that i've become
my hero, i have lost so much
my angel call my name

I haven't even seen this show but AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH LOVE IT.

[fiachairecht]

I like to think it's a good playlist in general, even without canon :D

[havocthecat]

There, I just stalked you on 8-tracks (okay, followed you) so now I can see your playlists.

[fiachairecht]

yesss, let me inflict my music upon you >:)

[thatyourefuse]

eeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

[fiachairecht]

five damn months but i finished the thing! i need a part 2 with, perhaps, more murder soon? or perhaps part 2 will be lilith/sabrina, whomst knows, not my attention span!

[thatyourefuse]

I mean I am down with either option, and as far as attention spans go, I would have been ready to swear it had been like two months tops, so!

[fiachairecht]

Lollllllll no I actually remember this one because I posted my first Zelda/Lilith fic on New Year's Day, frightening as it is to realise how long ago that was! I am leaning towards a Lilith/Sabrina one tbh, not least because in all the absolute bullshit that is this season of game of thrones there is that tiny flare of overwhelmingly bright and improbably divine priestess/her tiny fucked-up child assassin-prophet that is Melisandre/Arya, which: listen, a type, I have it.

Related only to Lilith: have you seen my smutswap gift because, honestly, I would be happy if no one else writes Prudence/Lilith again, this was so good.

[thatyourefuse]

I feel like I should probably mention the Unwoman cover of "Cry Little Sister" in the context of that type, as a matter of general principle. (That entire album Gets Me about this show, really; the "Wrapped Around Your Finger" is... well.)

[fiachairecht]

I mean, that type, yes, but (un)holy Zelda/Edward feelings, that's A Lot.

(I need a Zelda icon)

[thatyourefuse]

(... since you mention it, I maybe sort of have a few hundred million of those feelings going on. Maybe. More than previously. About halfway into 2.03 I almost completely stopped feeling like I was reading too much into things; it was the mounting evidence that everyone including Zelda actually does tend to regard her relationships with high priests as functionally interchangeable in many important ways, really.)

(And if you have a scene/cap of choice I could make you one.)
