When I saw the summaries of the STBB fics, I crossed my fingers in the hopes of getting
turtle_goose's The Once & Future Captain because I've had thoughts about mixing a Tarsus fic (mostly centered around track 12). Lucky me, I got the chance to create a mix for this story! :D I really enjoyed the clear thought that went into the world-building in this story, and if you're a sucker for Tarsus fics (like me), you shouldn't pass this one up.

01| Circuital - My Morning Jacket
Well anyway you cut it
We're just spinning around
Out on the circuits
Over the hollow grounds
Out on the circuits
Over the hollow grounds
Heading right back in the same place
That we started out
02| Find It In Me - William Fitzsimmons
My conduct should be suspect and my
Intentions should be checked but I'm too
Involved in making plans for my soul
03| Add My Effort - The Weepies
When it's dark you say it is
Because there's no light
And though it's not I'll say it is
I'll say it's all right
04| Northern Skies - I Am Kloot
Where did you go on a big black night?
Did you take the coast road back through your life?
See the sand, the moon, the stars that shine the light
And say, well, they’ll do all right for me?
05| Lights (Shook Remix) - Ellie Goulding
'Cause they're calling, calling, calling me home.
Calling, calling, calling home
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
You shine it when I'm alone
06| Night Squall - Balmorhea
[Instrumental]
07| Lippy Kids - Elbow
Do they know those days are golden?
Build a rocket boys
Build a rocket boys!
08| Easy - Real Estate
Around in the fields we grow
With love for everyone
Dreams we saw with eyes of hope
Until that dream was done
09| Fear - OneRepublic
When we were children we’d play
Out in the streets just dipped in fate
When we were children we’d say
That we don’t the meaning of
10| I Believe In Outer Space - The Lovers
They believe in an outer space
That's what they believe in
And right now and it's instant
And it's far away and it's distant
11| Running For Home - Matthew Good Band
When we were wired the world was like a secret
I close my eyes now and I scream
I turn the light on and there's nothing left redeeming
I saw your face before it changed
12| Dustbowl Dance - Mumford & Sons
I've been kicked off my land at the age of sixteen
And I have no idea where else my heart could have been
I placed all my trust at the foot of this hill
And now I am sure my heart can never be still
13| Pride Is A Lonely Blanket (When We Speak) - Red Wanting Blue
When we speak
But our words won't let us say so
And we wished we let it all show
We started falling apart
At the heart
We'll be broken 'til the end
14| Drifting - Andy McKee
[Instrumental]
15| The Problem Of Pain - William Fitzsimmons
Icarus they caught you where you tumbled on
Encourage you to dive now the sun is gone
I just don't know
I just don't know
16| Book Of Revelation - The Drums
And it's over now
You can pick yourself off the ground
Cause you're cool now
And you're nothing like him
17| Sea of Teeth - Sparklehorse
Stars will always hand in summer’s bleeding veils
But seas forever boil, trees will turn to soil
18| I'm With You - The Stills
The timing's right
And the light is soft
We've come from far
And we came here lost
19| All Or Nothing - Au Revoir Simone
You're a sight to see this early morning
Getting lost in my own neighborhood
The same freedom you feel
Is what's been blowing in my sail
Since I arrived here
20| Welcome Home - Radical Face
I've come home, home, home, home.
All my nightmares escaped my head.
Bar the door, please don't let them in.
