Week 146 submit post.
This week's theme is Ruto x Link, suggested by ozette. There are only two constraints (also from ozette ;D):
1. RUTO X LINK LUFF
2. It must be racy. ;)
December Fool's! (NO I AM NOT LAME WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT.) Though I still think that is a hott theme. ;D
Okay okay, the actual theme this week is Romeo and Juliet, because in case you haven't noticed, before Link's Awakening remixes came along, The Killers' cover of that song dominated my "Listening to" field. I will accept several things for this week:
1. This theme may be interpreted in the "usual" way - if you can pull off an icon that depicts the same sort of tragic relationship in the original play, go for it.
2. A quote from the play. The rules here are the same as they are for lyrics - you must use at least three consecutive words. If you do this, tell me which act and scene your quote is from. Here is a link to the text of the play.
3. Lyrics from the Dire Straits song "Romeo and Juliet" (covered, of course, by The Killers XD). Again, you must use three consecutive words. Lyrics are below the cut.
4. Anything else you can think of - if it seems unclear, make sure to explain it to me. If I think it strays too far from the theme, I will tell you so.
Romeo and Juliet
Dire Straits and covered by several other artists, most importantly THE KILLERS)
A lovestruck Romeo sings the streets a serenade
Laying everybody low with a love song that he made
Finds a streetlight, steps out of the shade
Says something like "you and me babe, how about it?"
Juliet says "hey, it's Romeo, you nearly gave me a heart attack!"
He's underneath the window, she's singing "hey la, my boyfriend's back
You shouldn't come around here singing up at people like that
Anyway, what you gonna do about it?"
Juliet, the dice was loaded from the start
And I bet that you exploded into my heart
And I forget, I forget the movie song
When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet
Come up on different streets, they both were streets of shame
Both dirty, both mean, yes and the dream was just the same
And I dreamed your dream for you and now your dream is real
How can you look at me as if I was just another one of your deals
When you can fall for chains of silver
You can fall for chains of gold
You can fall for pretty strangers
And the promises they hold
You promised me everything, you promised me thick and thin, yeah
Now you just say "oh Romeo, yeah, you know I used to have a scene with him"
Juliet, when we made love you used to cry
I said "I love you like the stars above, I'll love you 'til I die"
There's a place for us, you know the movie song
When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet
I can't do the talk, like the talk on the TV
And I can't do a love song, like the way it's meant to be
I can't do everything, but I'll do anything for you
I can't do anything, except be in love with you
And all I do is miss you and the way we used to be
All I do is keep the beat and the bad company
Now all I do is kiss you through the bars of a rhyme
Juliet, I'd do the stars with you any time
Juliet, when we made love you used to cry
I said "I love you like the stars above, I'll love you 'til I die"
And there's a place for us, you know the movie song
When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet
A lovestruck Romeo sings the streets a serenade
Laying everybody low with a love song that he made
Finds a convenient streetlight, steps out of the shade
Says something like "you and me babe, how about it?"
