Ah...feels good to get this out of my head.
I keep wanting to update about Real Life stuff, but I'm tired and incoherent. Therefore, I will inflict yet another FST on you!
This time, it's even an FST for a series/character you have heard of!
Queen Relena Sez: Peace Now, Bitches
--a Relena Darlian Peacecraft fst--
download .zip (29.1 MB)
Relena is nuts. She's beautiful, popular, intelligent, and bonkers. Occasionally, she is crazy like a fox, but usually it's more the suicidal craziness. (This trait obviously runs in the family.) One oft-cited piece of evidence for Relena's mental instability is the fact that she begs Heero to return to Earth--TO KILL HER. 'Cause she loves him and stuff.
Despite the rather blatantly nutso behavior, it's hard not to sympathize with Relena. Poor thing, she's just a normal (obscenely rich) high school student when she learns she has a heavy family legacy to uphold. Instead of running from it, she embraces it wholeheartedly. Because of her dedication, she eventually winds up being a pawn in a deadly game. Relena not only escapes the situation, she even faces down Dorothy, one of the scariest characters ever (if only for her freaky eyebrows). Relena learns, changes, adapts. She grows up right in front of us.
It's been a while since I've watched Gundam Wing, but I kept running across songs that made me think of Relena immediately. And, presto! Mini FST!
1. Dar Williams - The Great Unknown
I'm no ordinary princess, I was born in the Cold War,
And my team is the Rockets.
Go team, it's a dangerous time.
And I dream of the moon and building lunar clone colonies.
And I build my peace with strength, that's the best weapon you've got.
2. Nancy Lancy - Peace in the World
Peace is good
Wars are bad
It's better to have peace than war
It's better to have peace than war
Peace to the world
3. Collide - Wings Of Steel
Your wings on fire
But you can't find them
Your wings are higher
I've never seen them before
Chasing wings of steel
Chasing ghosts of time
4. Mia Doi Todd - The Way
I've been looking for a way out
Of this crazy situation now--
The world in crisis; seems like paradise
Was lost and won't be found
And all of life is endangered
And on the verge of breaking down.
5. Noe Venable - Euridyce
Follow your faith, follow my love
In the name of light, in the name of what’s above
Don’t look back
I am here
I am mute, I am forsaken
I am--
Here’s from me to world
Here’s from world to you
I can sing my heart out, sing myself away
Any day, any day
6. Cat Power - Maybe Not
We all do what we can
So we can do just one more thing
We can all be free
Maybe not in words
Maybe not with a look
But with your mind
This time, it's even an FST for a series/character you have heard of!
