I watched a full gameplay video of an infamous freeware game and was going to make a discussion post about it, but Puri got distracted and lacked energy from lack of food, so maybe later. Or not. Have a fun meme in its place~ ♥

1. 9/5 (9) - Goo Goo Dolls - Name

Scars are souvenirs you never lose
The past is never far
Did you lose yourself somewhere out there?
Did you get to be a star?
And don't it make you sad to know that life
Is more than who we are?


Holy shit. This song actually works great for them. The whole thing, I mean. ;; This verse pretty much sums 5 in a nutshell. God, it sucks to be 5. D: *clings to him*

2. 2/5 (9) - Jeff Buckley - Hallelujah

Well there was a time when you let me know
What's really going on below
But now you never show that to me, do you?
But remember when I moved in you
And the holy dove was moving too?
And every breath we drew was hallelujah


*sniffle* *BAW* This is more of a 1 song, since 2's not a bitter bastard. :P But eh. 2 definitely was the light in 5's world before he got snuffed out, his optimism and curiosity with it. :( NO THANKS TO FUCKING 9 ARRRRRRRRRRGH SOB BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAW

3. Madotsuki/Masada (Yume Nikki) - Nine Inch Nails - Survivalism

All bruised and broken, bleeding
She asks to take my hand
I turn, just keep on walking
But you'd do the same thing in the circumstance
I'm sure you'll understand


Ah, our first completely unrelated song in which we look for relative context out-of-context. Okay, that was confusing. Three guesses why Masada is broken and bleeding in the first place, and the first two don't count. :P

4. Alberto/Tonio (Pokemon: Rise of Darkrai) - Patrick Wolf - Demolition

So much to rescue
So much you just can't understand
Now the streets are dark and empty
And the problem's in our hands


Alberto is stubborn to a fault. <.< While he was attacking Darkrai because he wanted to protect Alamos and his honor, he was completely blind to the full picture and refused to listen to anyone but his own intuition. By the time he finally realized Darkrai had been trying to help them, a ton of the damage in Alamos had already been done and Darkrai ended up giving his life for Alamos's mistakes. Needless to say, pride does not mix well with protecting a city. :/

Guess the person he's less likely to take seriously until it's too late.

5. Sir Aaron/Lucario (Pokemon: Hero of the Wave) - Smashing Pumpkins - Fuck You (An Ode To No One)

Destroy the mind
Destroy the body
But you cannot destroy the heart


Wow, worst choice ever, iPod. X/ This is as close to relevance as I can get. They were both killed, mind and body. But never heart. The Aura is With Me! *salute*

6. Butler/Diane (Pokemon: Jirachi Wishmaker) - Tori Amos - Mother

I walked into your dream and now I've forgotten how to dream my own dream
You are the clever one, aren't you?
Brides in veils for you
We told you all of our secrets
All but one
Now don't you even try
The phone has been disconnected
Dripping with blood
And with time and with your advice
Poison me against the moon


Part of this song is about finding independence. Butler lost sight of what was really important to him and ended up doing things he thought was please Magma long after they fired him. Likewise, Diane did nothing and just went with the flow before it got completely out of hand, and she cut herself off from him by taking Max & Jirachi and the gang to Fauns. This was a slap in the face to Butler, and it would be later when he caught up with her that he knew why...

7. Grovyle/Celebi (Pokemon Mystery Dungeon) - Sarah McLachlan - Into the Fire

Open the doors that lead on into Eden
Don't want no cheap disguise
I follow the signs marked, "Back to the Beginning"
No more compromise


Grovyle and Celebi: Heroes of Time. :D The rest of the song makes a nice Grovyle groove too. :3 /brb spazzing over the badassness of the final verse again (I will stare at the sun until its light doesn't blind me / I will walk into the fire 'til its heat doesn't burn me / And I will feed the fire...)

8. Dusknoir/Grovyle (Pokemon Mystery Dungeon) - Fiona Apple - Never is a Promise

You'll never touch - these things that I hold
The skin of my emotions lies beneath my own
You'll never feel the heat of this soul
My fever burns me deeper than I've ever shown - to you


Wow. And the boys get a wangsty OOC drama-llama song. XD This is the closest I can get to Dusknoir and his obsessive attitude toward Grovyle without making him sound like a weeping soap opera lady. XD Fever, hehehe~

9. Ash/Jackie (Pokemon: Temple of the Sea) - The Cranberries - Desperate Andy

And when he goes he goes with a smile...

The world is your oyster now
You can do as you want to do
The world is your oyster now
So go out and get high
And get whatever you want to


The life of a ranger! Dang, I am envious. The Cranberries must totally fangirl Jackie. I know I do. Raaaaaaaaaawr~

10. Ash/Latias (Pokemon: Heroes) - Depeche Mode - Dirt

And do you feel it?
Said do you feel it when you touch me?
I said do you feel it when you touch me?


...I HATE YOU! /Dr. Tran. This is an Alberto/Tonio song, not for something as cute and sweet like Ash/Latias! They're about soul-bonding and touching hearts (including mine!) God my iPod is fucking corrupted. :/

11. Poo/Paula (Earthbound) - Tori Amos - Iieee

In this chapel, little chapel of love
Can't we get a little grace and some elegance?


...What. The. FUCK. DDD: Okay, this is just really hard and I don't think I can bother with trying to connect it to a shippy context in any way. Let's just say that the Chosen 4 are alone with Giygas, and all their hopes lie on Paula, whose prayers are swallowed by the darkness. Yay. Fuck you, iPod. Least romantic song ever. IT'S NOT A SHIPPING SONG AT ALL. ANYTHING BUT. bdajkgb ajkge

12. Jeff/Tony (Earthbound) - Patrick Wolf - Who Will?

Who will, penetrate
The tightening muscle?
Who will, cut across
The thickening skin?
Who will, be the one
To reach their hand in and pull out
The golden heart?


Do I need to explain this one? I am so, so sorry. <.<;;;

13. Teddy/Loid (Earthbound 0) - Linkin Park - What I've Done

Put to rest
What you thought of me
While I clean this slate
With the hands of uncertainty


Do I have to explain this? D: I'm sorry, the whole Iieee thing for Poo/Paula broke my brain so I can't function anymore.

14. Pippi/Loid (Earthbound 0) - Savage Garden - Break Me, Shake Me

I never thought I'd change my opinion again
But you moved me in a way that I've never known
You moved me in a way that I've never known


Yeah and after that, THE SONG DOES NOT FUCKING WORK ANYMORE. Pippi & Loid are made of weird and cute. Break Me, Shake Me = DOES NOT BELONG. DDDDDDD:

15. Geno/Mallow (Super Mario RPG) - Tori Amos - Talula (The Tornado Mix)

Talula, Talula
You don't want to lose her
She must be worth losing if it is worth something
Talula, Talula
She's brand new now to you
Wrapped in your papoose
You little Fig Newton

So goodbye now my baby, gotta go
Say goodbye my baby to the old world


Huh. At least it's not Iieee. But yeah. Geno leaves. We cry. It rains. XD

Bonus - Mugen/Zero (Pokemon: Bouquet of the Sky) - Tom Leher - We Will All Go Together When We Go

When you attend a funeral
It is sad to think that sooner or later
Those you love will do the same for you
And you may have thought it tragic
Not to mention other adjec-
Tives, to think of all the weeping they will do
But don't you worry

No more ashes, no more sackcloth
And an armband made of black cloth
Will someday never more adorn a sleeve
For if the bomb that drops on you
Gets your friends and neighbors too
There'll be nobody left behind to grieve


*sniffle* Despite all the brain breaking that's happened, Tom Leher and Antipodeanshipping work together to make it all better. ;D
