balsamandashOne I meant to steal earlier, one just for fun.
1. There are people on my reading list that I don't know very well. Want to trade information? You can ask me anything you want, as long as I get to ask you a question in return.
2. Music time! Give me a prompt of any kind -- a word, a mood, a kind of music, a character/fandom, an original writing thing, whatever random thing pops into your head -- and I will give you a 3-song playlist.

- River dragons
- The contract killer and the editor (because that boy is still loud and maing me eye cookies)
- Music as a weapon
- Music as a balm
- Music you would color to.
- You asked for tinies, so I am asking for caretaker music.
Caretaker music
Date: 2016-02-12 05:33 am (UTC)Atheist Christmas Carol - Vienna Teng
You are safe here, you know now. Don't forget, don't forget I love, I love, I love you.
Crazy Dreams - Smash Cast
Here's to you free souls, you firefly chasers, tree climbers, porch swingers, air guitar players; here's to you fearless dancers, shakin' walls in your bedrooms. There's a lot of wonder left inside of me and you; thank God, even crazy dreams come true.
Everything Possible
As the moon sets its sails to carry you to sleep over the midnight sea, I will sing you a song no one sang to me; may it keep you good company: You can be anybody you want to be, you can love whomever you will, you can travel any country where your heart leads, and know I will love you still
Raise You Up/Just Be - Kinky Boots (in very strange bits and pieces, but it works, okay?)
Once I was afraid, but then you came along; put your faith in me and I was challenged to be strong.... One: Pursue the truth. Two: Learn something new. Three: Accept yourself and you'll accept others too. Four: Let love shine. Five: Let pride be your guide. Six: You change the world when you change your mind!
Heartlines (Acoustic) - Florence and the Machine
But know, in some way I’m there with you; up against the wall on a Wednesday afternoon. Just keep follow the heartlines on your hand.
Flaws (Acoustic) - Bastille (... yeah, no, I will not be able to explain this association, it's just there.)
You have always worn your flaws upon your sleeve, and I have always buried them deep beneath the ground. Dig them up - let’s finish what we started; dig them up so nothing’s left unturned. All of your flaws and all of my flaws: when they have been exhumed, we’ll see that we need them to be who we are - without them we’d be doomed.
and unfortunately it's really hard for me to think of caretaker songs that are more about... being a caretaker than they are about talking to the people you take care of? But this is the closest I have, and I have... really deep chords that are struck by this song that I just can't explain:
1 Samuel 15:23 - the Mountain Goats
My house will be for all people who have nowhere to go; my supply of shining crystals a shield against the snow. There's more like me where I come from, so mark our shapes. Go down to the netherworld, plant grapes.
