Casting These Shadows [a Molly/Moriarty mix]
Full album art, tracklisting, and download links under the cut.
This fanmix was created in honor of mad_teagirl's birthday. It may be two weeks late, but it is finally ready to see the light of day!
This mix is the soundtrack to my Molly/Moriarty fic Death and the Maiden. The story started out as a drabble that was simply going to accompany this mix and it soon became a 6,000+ word monster.
Prior to working on this project I had very little experience is the particular pairing, so I hope I did the two of them justice.
Happy Birthday, my fantastic partner-in-crime-solving! I'm so sorry this is so late, but I hope you think it's worth the wait! <3

Casting These Shadows
a Molly/Moriarty fanmix
1. Dead Man's Bones - Buried In Water
[Moriarty]
When the women and kids are asleep
The walls there
And the skin of the sheep
So lock all
The windows and doors
The Devil's coming for you and yours
Like a lamb to his slaughter
Buried in water
2. Abel Korzeniowski - Clock Tick
[Instrumental]
3. Death from Above 1979 - Black History Month (Girl on Girl featuring Final Fantasy Revision)
[Moriarty]
Do you remember a time when this pool was
A great place for waterwings and cannonballs
A nice place for astrologists and blow up dolls
And on, and on...
4. The Baseballs - Paparazzi
[Moriarty]
Baby, you'll be famous
Chase you down until you love me
Papa, paparazzi
5. Fiona Apple - Extraordinary Machine
[Molly]
If there was a better way to go then it would find me
I can't help it, the road just rolls out behind me
Be kind to me
Or treat me mean
I'll make the most of it
I'm an extraordinary machine
6. Dead Man's Bones - Pa Pa Power
[Moriarty]
Burn the street
Burn the cars
Pa pa power, pa pa power
“Please make me better”
7. Sufjan Stevens - Dumb I Sound
[Moriarty]
Something's suddenly unclear
Someone's suddenly my fear
My eyes demand like broken eaves
The ladle overspills on eaves
If you once knew
How I loved you
8. Kiersten Holine - Afraid of Everyone
[Molly]
Lay the young blue bodies, with the old red violets
I'm afraid of everyone, I'm afraid of everyone
9. Clogs - Death and the Maiden
[Instrumental]
10. Regina Spektor - No Surprises
[Molly]
I'll take the quiet life
A handshake of carbon monoxide
11. Bat for Lashes - Bat’s Mouth
[Molly]
The caves of our mouths are forest darkness
And the air in between is overflowing
And the rushing wolverine flies past
His shiny shiny teeth
And she is kind, and he is free and full of knowing
12. Anna Ternheim & Fyfe Dangerfield - Lovers Dream
[Both]
Maybe I could be yours
Maybe you could be mine
God, I waited so long
Maybe my time has come
To walk by your side
13. Le Loup - We Are Gods! We Are Wolves!
[Moriarty]
Give your soul to us
Give your heart to us
We spent our darkest days
Howling at the moon
14. Client - Down To The Underground
[Both]
Don't try to hide it
You want me too
Don't you deny it
There's nothing you can't make me do
15. Lost in the Trees - Fireplace
[Moriarty]
Like an old man walks to the end of his life
And he's carrying a bag of bloody knives
Pass them out and say, "Hold them tight"
Here's a weight too sharp to hold
So I'll take true love and I'll cut it up with scissors
And I'll throw it in the fireplace
We can disappear together
16. Kate Nash - Don't You Want To Share The Guilt?
[Molly]
But, I arrive at your house but you've just got up
And you are wearing a towel and your eyes look dark
I help to dry your body and I see your cut
So I give you a plaster and we cover it up
I say have you been crying and you say shut up
So we sit in the garden and touch grass with our hands
The sun is going down now and it's been okay
You tell me all the things you did while I was away
And this worries me so much
You say you’re fine
17. The Cure - The Lovecats
[Moriarty]
We move like cagey tigers
We couldn't get closer than this
The way we walk
The way we talk
The way we stalk
The way we kiss
We slip through the streets
While everyone sleeps
Getting bigger and sleeker
And wider and brighter
18. Pj Harvey & John Parish - Black Hearted Love
[Molly]
When you call out my name in rapture
I volunteer my soul for murder
I wish this moment here forever
And you are my black hearted love
19. Carl Barat - Carve My Name
[Moriarty]
And I carved my name on the livers of my lovers
The hearts of all my brothers
Forgive me love
20. Underworld - Come Scientist Destroy
[Instrumental]
21. PJ Harvey - The Words That Maketh Murder
[Molly]
I've seen and done things I want to forget
I've seen soldiers fall like lumps of meat
Blown and shot out beyond belief
Arms and legs were in the trees
22. Ian Cooke - Birds Of A Feather
[Moriarty]
Untie my hands
Then we'll see
What kind of man
I'm supposed to be
23. Laura Viers - Magnetized
[Molly]
Furnaces burn everlasting
Black tattoos of you onto me
24. Tunng - The Pioneers
[Both]
So here we are reinventing the wheel
I'm shaking hands with a hurricane
25. Ellie Goulding - The Writer [Demo Version]
[Molly]
Why don't you be the artist
And make me out of clay?
Why don't you be the writer
Decide the words I say?
Cause I'd rather pretend
I'll still be there at the end
Only it's too hard to ask
Won't you try to help me?
26. Ian Cooke - Imaginary Contracts
[Moriarty]
But you're not leaving now
No, you can't go until my blood stops moving in my veins and arteries
Maybe not even then
Fake and golden chronicles
Promise me you're in
27. Bark Cat Bark - Le Marais
[Instrumental]
28. Joanna Newsom - Go Long
[Molly]
Go Long! Go Long!
Right over the edge of the earth!
You have been wronged, tore up since birth
You have done harm
Others have done worse
Will you tuck your shirt?
Will you leave it loose?
You are badly hurt
You're a silly goose
You are caked in mud
And in blood, and worse
Chew your bitter cud
Grope your little nurse
29. Radiohead - No Surprises
[Moriarty]
This is my final fit
My final belly-ache with
No alarms and no surprises
30. Alexandre Desplat - Some Things You Never Forget
[Instrumental]
31. Yann Tiersen - Dark Stuff
[Both]
Bad news coming tonight
32. Michael Giacchino & Emilie de Ravin - Catch A Falling Star
[Molly]
For love may come and tap you on the shoulder
Some starless night
33. Murray Gold - Doomsday
[Instrumental]
34. Aeroplane - We Can't Fly
[Both]
We can fly
Come on let's try
We're boys and girls
Who rule the world
