    glitterchance 34 Vigilant Gaze Engulfs the Void

    Several of Watsky's songs remind me of Sans, but especially this one:



    I know I'm often told
    That there's a pot of gold
    But I don't see a fucking rainbow and my coffee's cold
    I know I should be grateful
    I know I'm good and able
    But I don't have the strength to get up from the kitchen table
    This kind of shot comes once
    Another opportunity of a lifetime just slipped away
    And that's the fifth this month
    But when you take a punch
    Don't you ever forget
    Why you get up and you put one foot in front of the next

    ...


    Spent a half an hour
    Sitting at the bottom of my shower
    Letting the water run over my body and dammit I wanted to get up but I didn't have the power
    I don't have the answer anyway
    Don't want to panic but I got to come clean
    Because the plan of the planet is just mean
    Knew it was tough, but dammit it's obscene
    I been huffing and puffing up to the top of the summit and I'mma rough it if I have enough steam

    LadyNighteyes Wicked Witch of the Radiant Historia Fandom

    Several times people have posted things in the Radiant Historia tag involving fanmixes, and every time I've anonymously messaged them this song:

    It's spot-on enough that I don't need to do anything more than that.

    @LadyNighteyes have not played the games but I fucking love Thou Shalt Not, so I may need to investigate further :D

    LadyNighteyes Wicked Witch of the Radiant Historia Fandom

    The particular character is a late-game spoiler, but I imagine anyone who's played it and/or heard enough of my endless gushing could guess.

  7. Deresto

    Deresto Foolish Mortal

    oh man this song gives me mettaton and napstablook feels like whoa. the lyrics are perfect:



    He went to visit an old, old friend
    And it was long, long overdue
    And though they stayed up very late
    They never talked out of turn or tune
    And every time they'd say goodbye
    Well he'd just stay another while
    They started from a distant place
    And were so happy face to face

    The one who left wanted everything
    The one who stayed never wanted more
    It's not your choice, it's how you're built
    It's in a blueprint of your soul
    The one who left, he dropped his smile
    And they sat quiet for a while
    Then The one who stayed began to speak
    And in his words, he answered why

    I'm just another drop in the bucket
    I'm just another song on a jukebox
    I'm just another face in the crowd
    Another fish in the sea

    Something to being one of the many
    Something to being one in the masses
    Something to being surrounded by others and not alone by yourself

    I never wanted the bright lights and my eyes are much too quiet
    I never wanted them pointing their fingers at me
    Oh no, but...

    Something to being one of the many
    Something to being one in the masses
    Something to being surrounded by others and not alone by yourself

    The one who left he knew it then
    And he would never doubt again
    He loved this life, he loved his friend
    But he'd keep running 'til the end
    All words they said hovered above
    All of the pain, all of the love
    They hugged goodbye
    And in his room, he sang real quiet to the moon

    Something to being one of the many who get to sing the songs on the jukebox
    Who get to stay awake all night and dream half of the day
    Something to waking up in a new town
    Something to singing songs to a new crowd
    Something to being surrounded by others and not alone by yourself

    I never wanted the bright lights and my eyes are much too quiet
    I never wanted them pointing their fingers at me
    Oh no, but...

    Something to being one of the many who get to sing the songs on the jukebox
    Who get to stay awake all night and dream half of the day
    Then wake up in a new town
    Just another face in the crowd

    edit: i might try to do a lyricstuck thing if i ever get the energy...

    Dreams and Disasters by Owl City is totally a Frisk song.
    Same with Momentum by Aviators and Level Up by Vienna Teng.

    Aborted Kill All Route-to-Pacifist has Zero by Aviators.

    Afterlife by Switchfoot is another one.

    I've seen Centuries used as a Chara song, and Immortals is a good Chara and Frisk song, possibly even Charisk. (both Fall Out Boy.)

    I have a lot of these.

    Ford's early days in Gravity Falls and his relationship with Bill:


    The Society of the Blind Eye:


    Mabel vs. the future:


    If you pretend this song isn't blatantly about a romantic relationship (or if you like Stancest, I guess) it captures how I imagine Stan and Ford's feelings after they were separated (particularly Ford):


    Stan and the portal:

    Huh, kintsugi won't let me embed more than five videos at a time.

    Anyway...
    ...which isn't nearly as popular (on here or just in general), but it's going up here anyway because it's my Thing right now and I am trying to be less shy about this kind of thing, at least here on the intertubes where people can just stop reading if they think it's stupid and I won't even know about it.

    Reckoners' mission statement:


    David:


    Megan, eventually:


    David and Prof's conflict in book 2, from Prof's perspective:


    Obliteration:


    Bonus romance nonsense:
    Megan, addressing David

    yessss!!!!

    Some legends are told
    Some turn to dust or to gold
    But you will remember me
    Remember me, for centuries
    Just one mistake
    Is all it will take
    We'll go down in history
    Remember me for centuries
    Hey, hey, hey
    Remember me for centuries

    While we're at it with Fall Out Boy, in my head "The Phoenix" is about Monstrous Regiment. :::PPP

    i associate aviators' Red with post-pacifist undertale, especially with papyrus and frisk as they're the two ambassador options
     
  15. glitterchance

    glitterchance 34 Vigilant Gaze Engulfs the Void



    This reminds me of Papyrus and Undyne's friendship.

    Ooh, nice.

    Another Zelos song, while we're on the subject:



    "Walk the Walk" by Poe

    My mother spent ten years sitting by the window
    Scared if she spoke she would die of a heart attack
    She listened as her dreams silently screamed
    They drowned like little dolphins caught in a fishnet

    Dear world, I'm pleased to meet you
