The release of The Mark of Athena is fast-approaching, and I am not ready. The prospect of reconvening with Percy and Annabeth is almost intimidating, because I just care about them so much, you know? It's the same kind of intimidating as embarking on a full re-read of Harry Potter (which I've been doing the past few months... I HAVE A LOT OF HARRY POTTER EMOTIONS, GUYS); the same kind of intimidating as watching a new episode of Doctor Who hoping that this weeks' writers have done a good job... I need to be in the right frame of mind to engage in the lead-up and post-release fangirly fun and I'm not there yet...
The solution is, of course, to fanmix my into a happy shippy fandomy place! (Fanmix is obviously verb.)
Come to Your Senses - Tick, Tick... Boom! Off-Broadway Cast
Come to your senses
Defences inside are not for real
If we feel as we did
And I do
Can't you recall when this all began?
It was only you and me, it was only me and you
But now the air is filled with confusion
We've replaced care with illusion
It's cool to be cold
Nothing lasts anymore
Love becomes disposable
This is the shape of things we cannot ignore
Counting the Ways - Kate Voegele
Oh my darling I'm so far in, I can't see my feet
Your water deep is washing over me
Fifty states may separate us but it only makes me see
How much you mean
When your whisper brought me out of my slumber
I stumbled under some kind of spell
Now the distance gives me reason to wonder
How I'll recover from our farewell
'Cause these days, doesn't matter what you say
I'm a mess when you're away
And unless you come back
I'll be one step closer to insane
It's enough to keep me lying wide awake
Counting the ways that I miss you, babe
Bend and Break - Keane
When you, when you forget your name
When old faces all look the same
Meet me in the morning when you wake up
Meet me in the morning then you'll wake up
If only I don't bend and break
I'll meet you on the other side
I'll meet you in the light
If only I don't suffocate
I'll meet you in the morning when you wake
If You Can't Sleep - She & Him
If you can't sleep, I'll be there in your dreams
I'll be there in your dreams if you can't sleep at all
And in your dreams I'll touch your cheek
And lay my head on your shoulder
Goodbye shadows
Goodbye shadows
6 Months - Hey Monday
Months going strong now and no goodbye
Unconditional, unoriginal
Always by my side
Meant to be together
Meant for no-one but each other
You love me
I love you harder, so
Everything you say, every time we kiss
I can't think straight
But I'm okay
And I can't think of anybody else
Who I hate to miss as much as I hate missing you
Cathedral - Cocoon
I came from the valley
And you came from the sea
You smell like the sand
How far up the river
Would you go, would you go
To meet me again?
...
You pushed on my heart
Every night and every day
To keep me alive
And you kiss my mouth
And I learn to walk
And I learn to try
Can you hear the horses?
It means the season changes
It means the season changes
The World Within - A Fine Frenzy
It must be written that the moon elbowed the stars
And said, let's do our best to make it hard for them
Your house turned into paper cranes
We watched the wind blow them away
Some sorry comfort I was then
The weight of a mountain
The skin off your knees
Come climbing up to me
We can work this out, I believe
Even though it seems impossible now

P.S. Watching Doctor Who while downloading Sinbad while fanmixing Heroes of Olympus... HOW MANY FANDOMS CAN I FIT IN MY FANGIRL HEART AT ONCE BEFORE I EXPLODE?
