Refuge in Sound Waves ~ A Companion Mix for Refuge at Sea
Refuge in Sound Waves is the companion soundtrack for the Looker-centric fic "Refuge at Sea" by quotemyfoot. The main idea was to act as an auditory supplement to key characters and events in the fic to enhance the experience of reading it. I initially tried scoring chapter by chapter, but that didn't really work. This soundtrack is best played after reading the fic and of course, there will be spoilers.
