Ahem.
...and DONE!
I'm so bloody happy. Physics test tomorrow stands NO CHANCE against someone who can finish a 22,832 word story in the space of about three days.
I need advice. Anyone (though preferably anyone who's SEEN YnM, which is a few of you by now, or at least anyone who knows it well) EXCEPT Eugenie can offer an opinion. Eugenie is expressly forbidden to even peek under this lj-cut. *shoos her away*
So. The question is: Which song? I'm putting one at the beginning of Shields and now I can't decide which is better. Basically I want to capture the Tsuzuki/Hisoka relationship - the first is one that I have ALWAYS associated with that pairing and is also more angsty (and so possibly fits in better with the fic ^_^;;) but the second... I don't know, I just found it and it seems to ring true. The line "If you go I can never survive" is very close to something Tsuzuki actually SAYS.
...and they BOTH mention the word "immortal". How convenient.
Ah well. Read them both through carefully and then cast your vote, onegai?
My immortal - Evanescence
I'm so tired of being here.
Suppressed by all my childhood fears.
And if you have to leave,
I wish that you would just leave.
Cause your presence still lingers here,
and it won't leave me alone.
These wounds won't seem to heal,
this pain is just too real,
there's just too much that time cannot erase.
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears,
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears.
I held your hand through all of these years.
But you still have...
All of me.
You used to captivate me by your resonating mind,
Now I'm bound by the life you left behind.
Your face it haunts my once pleasant dreams
Your voice has chased away all the sanity in me.
I tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone.
But though you're still with me,
I've been alone all along.
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears,
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears.
I held your hand through all of these years.
But you still have...
All of me.

The Perfect Love - Elton John
Happiness comes when most unexpected
When nothing and no one seems true
So many promises broken
But I feel certain of you
Certain as night and day
You keep my ambitions alive
Though you don't have to stay
If you go I can never survive
The perfect love
Will probably never exist
But you are as close as it gets and I won't resist
The perfect love
Has never proven to be
But you are as close as it gets when you're close to me
Out on our own in a furious world
We chase any dream, any star
Nothing can harm us, we are immortal
Innocent fools that we are
Sometimes our confidence dies
But I won't mind at all
I see my dreams coming true in your eyes
My mother has been watching the damn TT video ALL AFTERNOON.
Told her about aardvark man turning out to be surprisingly hot. She scoffed and asked me why it had taken me this long to work it out. *shrugs* Go figure.
EDITED TO ADD:
This wouldn't be odd, except for the fact that I've been meaning to make an AMV to Savage Garden's To The Moon And Back based around Cowboy Bebop's Faye for basically forever.
Are we jealous, Siobhan? :P

Do you have a particular singer in mind? As in, do you want it to be more from Tsuzuki's or Hisoka's point of view? I need to know, if you have a preference, so I can read them that way. ^_^

Thanks :-)

Also, the 'all of these years' kept bugging me in the evanescence one.
So, as much as I dont PARTICULARLY like elton john, my vote is for his.
Remember I havent read you fic though, jsut seen the series. :P

Everyone has their own opinion, I guess.
Shields isn't actually a songfic ^_^;; This is more a spur-of-the-moment thing because... I felt like it. Meh.
