Harry Goodsir / Lady Silence (Silna) Playlist
Series: The Terror (season 1)

Prompt / Trope: Unrequited Love / Pining
Collection: Trope Bingo Round 14
Medium: Fanmix + Cover Art
My Card
Notes: I chose this pairing for the unrequited love / pining prompt because I fell so unexpectedly in love with them after watching the series recently, especially after the second viewing. These two struck up an unlikely friendship despite their tragic circumstances as man, creature and nature threatened to tear them apart, but they remained steadfast in their loyalty to each other even when they were doomed never to share words or gazes again.

There's no definitive proof that Goodsir and Lady Silence were in love; then again, does there need to be? It's easy to assume that Goodsir likely pined after Silna after their parting, his dedication toward her is one of the more heartwarming pinpoints of light in this show, and it's almost just as easy to assume that Silna reciprocated his feelings, given her state when she was reunited with Goodsir for the final time. These two for me are the epitome of unrequited: they were never given the time required to explore or act on their feelings, but it does not make those feelings any less real or poignant.

For this playlist, I tried to blend a mix of bleak and hopeful songs. Most of them, for me, are from Goodsir's point of view.
The music is a mix of metal and rock, the former symbolizing the bitter hopelessness of their situation, especially Goodsir's,
and the latter highlighting the fleeting, quiet moments between them, sweet and caring and brave, much like Goodsir himself.

Current Soul Food Afterlife - Smile Empty Soul

Notes: This is a fanmix for my fic don't leave me where i lay. I also think that this fanmix serves as an accompaniment for my from paris with love: reece/wax: monsters & hunters AU series as a whole, which is titled an unquiet mind.

You can listen to the fanmix HERE.

And some alternate covers (stripped down) are over here.

Current Soul Food The Mother Room - Chelsea Wolfe

Collection: Trope Bingo
Prompt: Handcuffed/Bound Together
Notes: I went for more of a 'Chains' theme for this one, sometimes physical though mostly mental. We have themes of physical chains for convicts and as (metaphorical) jewelry, and we also have chains as a symbol of love or life, mainly the former. This is mainly oldies but goodies (folk, new wave, soul), but there's some recent stuff in here too.

You can listen to the playlist HERE.

1. Chains by The Cookies

~Now believe me when I tell you I think you're fine
I'd like to love you but, darling, I'm imprisoned by these chains
My baby's got me locked up in chains
And they ain't the kind that you can see~

In this song, the singer is telling someone that she's already in love with someone else and that she is unavailable to this person; hence, "my baby's got me locked up in chains." It could be that the singer isn't happy about these chains and about being tied down to someone, since they repeatedly keep on about wanting to kiss this person, "your lips look sweet / I'd like to kiss them"; that this person is "fine" and that "I'd like to hold you"; and that her "chains of love won't let me be." Either way, the singer is tied down and there's nothing they can do about it.

Current Soul Food Chains - Duran Duran

Collection: Trope Bingo
Prompt: Haunted House
Notes: Given how much I love music, I thought why not create a playlist for this fun little trope? In the process, I actually found songs by bands I've never heard of or in certain genres that I would normally never listen to and now love. Thanks, Trope Bingo!

Oh, and you can listen to the playlist HERE.

1. Mister Memory by The Comsat Angels

~In the place where you used to be
There's a noisy ghost, a restless space
...
He's a haunted house - Mister Memory
Will you lay the ghost, will you set him free~

Mister Memory is the focus in this song, a haunted house housing a ghost who has lost himself/herself and whom the singer begs the audience to set free. Ok, I've always been terrible on decoding songs, but this song could also be about a person's memories being like a haunted house, trapping them until there's only chaos and noise, and how that person is desperately reaching out for someone to set him/her free. Specifically, someone left the singer and caused them to feel like this shell of a person; therefore, they're begging to be released from loss and torment. Yeah, let's go with that.

Overall: The singer feels like he's trapped in a haunted house, that house being all his bad memories.
