so the keywords and comments section of each icon is just as important as the icon itself so i'll include both.
all the dreams that i chase / [how can i fly if you won't give me wings?] so this is a random default icon i made to match my layout (the colours!) and it was made out of things i found on google images. not too fascinating, but when i use it deliberately (you can tell if you hover and see keywords, otherwise i just forget to change the icon) to denote when i'm feeling a bit apathetic/normal/listless/'default' self, etc. the lyrics are from The Music and i wanted to convey a sense of despondency with a bit of hope. so, like, "LIFE" haha.
always learning the hardest way / [but if i know you, you'll find me someplace new] as if i could not have a SM icon. :P anyway, i really loved how Mizu made this icon. the lyrics are from The Presets' song, "If I Know You" and i felt it fit the icon perfectly. Usagi really does learn through experiences, often bad ("hardest way"). and i thought the line about knowing she'll be found again really fit her and Mamoru, what with the reincarnation and destiny yaddayaddayougetthepoint. anyway this is my "sad" icon, or when i'm feeling a bit overwhelmed.
the mind is the battleground / [there is no weapon sharper than will] Monsterrrrrr :DDD there are so few good monster icons on LJ, so how could i not. anyway Tenma (top guy) is holding a gun at Johan (bottom guy) and Johan is telling Tenma "shoot me, do it! in the head!" and Tenma is all RARRRRR because he rlyrly doesn't want to have to. anyway, more The Music lyrics, which i felt really fit this icon. Johan is the master of mindtricks and Monster is such a psychological thriller. i felt that Tenma's will really made him a great character in the animanga. (i hope you've seen/read Monster and know what the hell i'm talking about.) ANYWAY this icon is for my "psychologically drained"/thinking really hard/musing on something mood.
i will possess your heart / [no one will come between us] Mars :3 also rare in icon form. i loved that manga, and these two make me happy. anyway the lyrics are from Death Cab For Cutie (first part) and The Music (second). i felt that the first part really accurately described how Rei pursued Kira throughout their relationship; he was so determined to have her love him. the second part is how they feel about their relationship, pretty self-explanatory. this is my attraction/desire/wanting mood icon. :3
like a symbol of hope / [every one of us stands for something] BECKKKKKKKKK XDD as you said. great anime, haven't read the manga yet though. really loved this shot, because you can see how much of a unit these boys are. anyway the lyrics are The Music once more (see a pattern here? haha) and i felt like they really did symbolise hope for each other's futures. and they all have their own path, and their own strengths. this is my friendship/love icon and i use it when trying to convey how much i care for someone. :3
and i wanted to do the last one since there's only that left XD
shall we begin? / [this is the first day not like the last day] Szayel from Bleach, one of the villains (do you watch/read bleach?). anyway this is a bit random but i thought he was pretty good looking haha annnd yeah. words are me (first part) and theSTART (second part). if you haven't seen/read bleach, Szayel was waiting for the good guys to come to his specially made room where he could then fight them (to his advantage, of course). so that's what the words are referring to -- him waiting, him being slightly impressed with the good guys and getting interested in the fight ("first day..." etc = oh, something new happened, i have been so bored up until now). but yes, this icon often denotes interest/flirtation/getting on with something (i.e. determination). it's a bit of a mixed bag XD
But you're supposed to post it to your own journal to SPREAD THE LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE
Well, I'll let it pass for now =3
I used to read Bleach, but I'm way far behind it now. Szayel looks like he could pick his nose with his tongue OTL I always meant to read Monster though. I'll get to it... AS SOON AS I FINISH ALL THIS DETECTIVE CONAN
