[OOC] Lantern

[Mokley]

Totally thinking of making a Lantern music playlist. It's long overdue. First 4 possibilities:

Falling Down

Farewell

Fear Not This Night

Children of the Sun

Obviously .... darkness vs sunlight related, haha. Any suggestions? :D

[noelakos]

The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask soundtrack is a good fit, I think. :3

[drewccapp]

Lost World is one of my favorites and probably would fit for solemn moments and just about ANYTHING from myuuji's channel would work.

(I can thank the GM from an RP that sadly never got off the ground for my discovery of myuuji sadly I cannot remember their name)

[c3p-0h]

time to reveal myself for the garbage i am by recommending Heir of Grief

[Mokley]

@noelakos How 'bout a remix? Or maybe this one! The first one sounds like the Kith, though, haha!

@drewccapp I'd have to say that I personally prefer Scent of Night for Lantern because it feels more layered and ominous. But yes, myuuji is pretty cool!

@c3p-0h Aaawww yeah, Homestuck! That's a kickass track.

[c3p-0h]

found a music box version of that song i recommended as a quiet, wistful reprise.

if we are… still doing the music thing.

……………i really just like this melody too much.

[Mokley]

Ok. The mix is here.

14 tracks. I took a few liberties -- like finding yet another myuuji song that fit way better. xD

Doesn't really tell a story, more of an inspirational tracklist, but I think it manages to tie together! "Falling Down" just has to be in there, sorry -- it was on repeat for the first 6 months of this RP and was the inspiration for the synopsis in the first place, as lame as that sounds, hahaha. xD

[Wishful Stray]

Sorry, I've done nothing but sleep and work this past week...I think I was sick?? I really don't know why...mrr...

[drewccapp]

Oh! Oh! I have another to add to the mix!

Poets of the Fall are great. (so is the Alan Wake soundtrack XD)

[Mokley]

@Wishful Stray Hope you're feeling better! <3

@drewccapp A magic lake ... a witch's cabin ... the "lady of the light, gone mad with the night" ... "Nightmares shifted in their sleep in the darkness of the lake"

What are these shenanigans and who's been reading our RP? xD Awesome find!

Edit: I've updated the playlist (I think that song is fitting for the end!) and also duplicated it on youtube. Ship of Fools doesn't exist on youtube as far as I can tell -- it's been yanked for copyright everywhere, haha.

[drewccapp]

That track was brought to my attention about 7 years ago in my university's gaming club by a community member whom made his own roleplaying system and ran a game using that exact song as a major plot point. The game was so much fun, but unfortunately life became too busy for the guy and he had to stop showing up to club. He's actually the reason I fell in love with Poets of the Fall. I may have to get my passport together at some point so I can maybe make a trip to see them in Canada at some point, since they will never perform on US soil.

[c3p-0h]

So life seems to have pulled noelakos away for the time being.

[Mokley]

Seems like it's so! Arin's plot is entirely separate right now -- we'll move on!

[drewccapp]

So, now that the Blue Egg is freed completely of its cage, how is it acting around Anise? Is it floating? Is it attached to her in some fashion? Or is it acting like a superpowered super shiny rock?

[Mokley]

It's a superpowered shiny rock, that is much harder to carry than a lantern with a handle, haha. xD

It's pretty much indestructible though!

[drewccapp]

Alright, that very much changes how I'm writing my post.

[Mokley]

Theoretically I guess the white lantern could be used to keep it afloat. :)

[drewccapp]

Theoretically, but I think Anise is too tired to think of that.

[Wishful Stray]

Mono is the worst, I've done nothing but sleep for the past week...blehh...I'll post tonight or tomorrow!

[c3p-0h]

Same. The posting thing. Not the mono thing.
(Hope you feel better)
