This Tornado Loves You [An Adam/Ruby Fanmix]
Medium: Television
Fandom: Supernatural
Subject: Adam/Ruby
Title: This Tornado Loves You
Notes/Warnings: Spoilers for through season five, but it's sort of AU, so ehhhh. It's meant to be the companion mix to the fic This Brand New Colony, which is the sequel to You've Escaped. But it can, of course be a stand alone mix.

So awhile back back I wrote a fic called "You've Escaped" and an accompanying mix called "Say Hello To The Monster In Your Home" for suchaprince's birthday. And to be totally honest, it's mostly her fault that this pairing even exists for me - sure, a lot of it stems from the fact that Katie!Ruby was one of my favorite things ever (and in my book the only Ruby), and that Adam is too precious for this world. But I was only half serious when I said to her "I have half a mind to write a fic about them" and she said "doooooooo iiiiiiiiiiit". So to make her happy I did, for her birthday, and then I just kept going, because I got stupidly addicted to this pairing. And now this completely improbable made up pairing is probably my favorite supernatural pairing ever. God help me. But anyway, enough of that, look, music:
1. Accident and Emergency - Patrick Wolf
[Adam]
So come on
Give me the worst and then again
I'm feeling braver than I've ever been
2. Paradise Circus - Massive Attack
[Ruby]
It's unfortunate that when we feel a storm
We can roll ourselves over 'cause we're uncomfortable
Oh well, the devil makes us sin
But we like it when we're spinning in his grip
Love is like a sin, my love,
For the ones that feel it the most
Look at her with her eyes like a flame
She will love you like a fly will never love you again
3. A King And A Queen - Okkervil River
[Adam]
But the best thing for you would be queen, so be queen.
You’re all that I need.
Though I know that it never can be,
I’d be pleased to post your decrees,
to fall at your knees,
to name all your streets and to sit down and weep
when you’re carried back through them
and set down to sleep,
and to lie by your side for sublime centuries
until we crumble to dust when we’re crushed by a single sunbeam
4. I Can't Breathe - Sharon Van Etten
[Ruby]
And I wanna cry but I don't wanna scare you
Cause your so soft, and you move slow
And your not green, but your growing up
I can't Breathe
I can't Breathe
And I can't believe that I might be
5. Shiver - Coldplay
[Adam]
From the moment I wake to the moment I sleep
I'll be there by your side, just you try and stop me
I'll be waiting in line just to see if you care
Did you want me to change?
Well I changed for good
And I want you to know that you'll always get your way
I wanted to say
Don't you shiver
Don't you shiver
Sing it loud and clear
I'll always be waiting for you
6. And Darling - Tegan And Sara
[Ruby]
you slip your hands inside my pockets
tell me nothing else would do
without me, you can't live and
you slip your heart into my chest
they both become one of the strongest pairs
when strangers come
and darling
this thing that breaks my heart
7. Anonanimal - Andrew Bird
[Adam]
I will become this animal
Anomalous appendages
A non-animal
8. The Glitters - Segal
(instrumental)
9. By Tonight - Say Anything
[Adam]
by tonight
the earth bursts open
by tonight
we'll shed this clothing
by tonight
you'll see my from the
angle that you missed
nothing exists but this
10. Wasted Daylight - Stars
[Ruby]
Pull in the body to twist
The thighs, the heels, the hips
Constellation markings
Across your body, drawings
Telephone rings
But we'll just let it sing
Hide out 'till tomorrow
I crawl into your shadow
I don't mind, I don't mind
This wasted, shaded daylight
11. Teenage Dream - The Warblers
[Adam]
You and I
We'll be young forever
You make me feel like I'm living a teenage dream
The way you turn me on, I can't sleep
Let's run away and don't ever look back
Don't ever look back
My heart stops when you look at me
Just one touch
Now, baby, I believe
This is real, so take a chance
And don't ever look back, don't ever look back
12. This Tornado Loves You - Neko Case
[Ruby]
my love, I am the speed of sound
I left them motherless, fatherless
their souls dangling inside-out from their mouths
but it's never enough
my love
I'm an owl on the sill in the evening
but morning finds you
still warm and breathing
this tornado loves you
this tornado loves you
13. Home - Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes
[Adam & Ruby]
Moats and boats and waterfalls
Alleyways and pay phone calls
I've been everywhere with you
That's true
Laugh until we think we'll die
Barefoot on a summer night
Never could be sweeter than with you
And in the streets you run a-free
Like it's only you and me
Geez, you're something to see
Ah, home
Let me go home
Home is wherever I'm with you
