fic + fanmix: as now devotion will unfold (padmé/sabé)

[fiachairecht]

So now that smutswap author reveals have happened (ao3 bugs notwithstanding), which means I can post this! I wrote as now devotion will unfold for lionessvalenti, my first foray into writing Padmé/Sabé. This led to a longer title-hunt than usual, and by the time I found one, I had effectively enough songs for a fanmix. I did some refining of order and so on, and now: a fanmix, ten songs about mirroring and loving and leading a revolution. It's not necessarily a smutty mix in and of itself, but it's a collection of some of the themes and character beats I was trying to keep in mind when I was writing.

AS NOW DEVOTION WILL UNFOLD



[ 8tracks | playmoss ]

i. ode to the innocent diablo swing orchestra
like a feather
like a whisper
like a promise shouldn't wither

ii. forever yours xandria
the days of thunder cry their goodbye
and for the first time i know what to do
i just keep on being one with you

iii. twin flames epica
being there with you i feel at ease
being there with you is all i ever need
my one belief, we share a common energy

iv. two planets bat for lashes
and life is so much dark and light
day cannot exist without a night
and you are not separate from me
i am a heart that's full of life

v. my sweet mystery the dark element
bring me back, days of grace
take me back where i belong
to our garden of dreams
where you are lying next to me

vi. black lily gazpacho
all your troubles, small battles
on your ice cap, black lily
i just want to make you
make you laugh again

vii. unchain utopia epica
we're in a time where all enterprises fall
we should beware of the wolves that haunt us
they are not all the same

viii. revolution kamelot
we are standing at the crossroads
afraid but not alone
a thousand missing faces
a story of a rose

ix. clair obscur oathbreaker
i had a vision of this
saw the sky falling down on my
i'm sane, i know i'm sane
you're the soul of the waves

x. end of innocence kamelot
the beauty we all know will be lost
we're building a bridge between heaven and hell
to return again
