In way of apology for my absence, I offer up the tunes I hear when thinking about the party so far. Admittedly, the newer members are more first impressions than actual assessments of their characters. I don't claim the right to decide other people's theme music; these are just what I use when reading the established narrative.

Furthermore, I've chosen different tracks for the toons and those behind them, and I've also explained my reasoning for each.

Marcus: [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nK0KGNevngw]Wreck-It Ralph[/url]
	[i]-Marcus is very much myself with a paint job and new name. When I heard this song for the first time, I actually teared up at how, to me, it represented both gaming's past and its future. That, and one of my personal fantasies coming to life: that games are alive and the people living in them matter.[/i]
Raine: [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ad5TszNUVYI]Swordland[/url]
	[i]-Sword Art Online catches a lot of flak, but the music can be downright inspiring. I've always said that, if stuck in the same situation, I'd be wielding a sword and shield. Sure, it means I'm defaulted to a role dedicated to soaking damage in a game that gives you exactly one shot, but it also means that I'm better equipped to stand against whatever the world might throw at me.[/i]

Will: [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zSRSs2wGKQo]Out of the Loop[/url]
	[i]-Okay, I admit I'm being kinda mean with this one. Will's by no means a woman-hater, but he is a loon. You've got this guy who, I feel, is trying his damnedest to convince the world he's not nuts and no one's listening. The way the song almost trips over itself certainly reminds me of an awkward doofus trying to look cool.[/i]
Walker: [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L4nDOGNSRKA]Snake Gulch[/url]
	[i]-Cowboys in a high fantasy setting? Sure. Makes about as much sense as literally any theme in a superhero setting. So, why not go for broke, find purposefully over-the-top western music from a theme park overrun by cowboy robots, and then apply it to a cowboy determined to recreate Texas with a butchered movie title for a name?[/i]

Irene: [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y1jR_jxUBBw]Idiot Nerd Girl's Theme[/url]
	[i]-Like I said before, first impression. Here's a kid willing to screw over her brother for the chance to play games. So, why not find something annoying but catchy enough that her passion as a gamer bleeds through despite her being a brat.[/i]
Fairy: [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lgIjcGYmoyc]Jenna's Battle Theme [/url]
	[i]-Again, annoying, but, this time, more active and kinda reminiscent of magical girl animes the world over. After all, we've got ourselves a magic-slinging fairy and a 12 year old girl, so I can't imagine that, even if she's too young for Sailor Moon to have been an influence, that wouldn't be roughly the direction she'd wind up going in.[/i]

Elena: [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iIgWks5X5DA]Faulty Neurosis Like Tune [/url]
	[i]-I admit, this is a straight-up guess. I needed something laid back given that Dreamscape is explicitly stress relief for her, but it had to be kinda cool, sorta as a nod to the ongoing struggle of students to find their place in whatever clique they wind up in. I'm sorry, that sounded pointlessly artsy, didn't it?[/i]
Ellie: [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HCpk7HIryK0]Annah's Theme [/url]
	[i]-Going by the character art, I needed something elegant, but not super-showy. The woman fading in and out brings to mind calling out to her beasts in times of need. The overall gentle tone suggests an almost motherly aura about her, and that seemed appropriate given that her spells are apparently specialized towards buffing her beasts.[/i]
