Striving for Worthiness
A Playlist for Obiyuki Week 2023 by @snowwhite-andtheknight
While trying to fit the songs to the prompts, this playlist became less about making himself worthy, and more about working through his self-doubt, eventually fading out with some Lilias bonfire feels!
Striving for Worthiness
Kiss of Life- The Dear Hunter (Day 1: Attraction)
As Above, So Alone- Copeland (Day 2: Worship from Afar)

Summary lyrics are cited after the cut:
Kiss of Life- The Dear Hunter (Day 1: Attraction to the Lady)
Give me more than the things that I live for
I'm only echoes of the man that I'm supposed to be
Because I want more of the things I'd die for
I want to feel it in my soul
Now that you've unburied me, dust me off and carry me home
And I beg you sing life to me again
I promise this won't happen again
Because it would be so wonderful to see your starry eyes again
As Above, So Alone- Copeland (Day 2: Worship of the Lady from Afar)
And I know you love me
Even when you can't say it like you mean it
But no one has ever seen my
Soul unfettered the way you are
I wake but layers of a dream
Lay over everyone I see
But how is it so, my world looks different now
But no one knows?
Whatever’s Left- Snow Patrol (Day 3: Declaration of Passionate Devotion)
A feeling I've had many times before
I can't hold the fort, so don't give me more
I struggle and sweat when I'm wide awake
And I know I'm fine, I'm not used to fine
As the madness sets in
You must know that I'll follow you
Circles- Anberlin (Day 4: Virtuous Rejection- Indecision)
I set to search the ruins
I looked inward to find
I keep running into circles
Lost myself to find me
Left him there to just bleed
Running into circles to find myself
Are we all looking for someone
To see us for who we really are?
Because as long as we know ourselves
No one could ever get that far
Not Strong Enough- Boygenius (Day 5: Renewed Wooing with Oaths of Virtue)
I don't know why I am the way I am
Not strong enough to be your man
I try, I can't stop staring at the ceiling fan and
Spinning out about things that haven't happened
Breathing in and out
Half a mind that keeps the other second guessing
Close my eyes and count
Bed Head- Manchester Orchestra (Day 6: Heroic Deeds of Valor)
Let me relinquish and start to distinguish my past, and my time
There is only love and fire, so
Let me extinguish the habit, the sequence, the loss, in my mind
Right by the entrance, you broke
Finally, reality's taking its hold
You're not who you were, but you can't let it go
You're not where you're from, but you're always alone
So I stick a flag in the ground
I think I know who I'm living for now
I am what I am, same above as the ground
It's not what I want, but I'm figuring it out
Shut Your Eyes- Snow Patrol (Day 7: Consummation of the Secret Love)
Shut your eyes and think of somewhere
Somewhere cold and caked in snow
By the fire, we break the quiet
And when the worrying starts to hurt
And the world feels like graves of dirt
Just close your eyes until
You can imagine this place, yeah, our secret space at will

Falling Through Memories
A Playlist for Zelink Week 2023 by @zelinkcommunity
(Image from https://zelda.fandom.com/wiki/Gallery:Breath_of_the_Wild)
First time submitting a playlist outside of the Shirayuki fandom! I dug through songs from previous Zenyuki and Obiyuki playlists to find ones that fit the daily prompts and also work well for Zelink feels. The last song for the Free Day always reminds me of ecologist Zelda (partially inspired by art from @newtsnaturethings) and would be a perfect Zelink date!
Falling Through Memories
The Kiss of Life- The Dear Hunter (Day 1: Yearning)
Weeping Willow- The Hush Sound (Day 2: Forbidden)
Wonder English- Eisley (Day 3: Letters)
On The Safest Ledge- Copeland (Day 4: Hand in Hand)
invisible string- Taylor Swift (Day 5: By A Thread)
A Melody, The Memory- Mae (Day 6: In Another Life)
Museum- Kitsch Club (Day 7: Free Day)
Summary lyrics are cited after the cut:
The Kiss of Life- The Dear Hunter (Day 1: Yearning)
Hope was closing with my eyes
Down the shallow grave I was lying
Cause you were leaning over me
Clutching memories of when I was alive
And then you breathed life into me one last time
But I prayed it wasn't the last time
Because it would be so wonderful to see your starry eyes again
Now that you've unburied me
Dust me off and carry me home
Weeping Willow- The Hush Sound (Day 2: Forbidden)
Those secrets hidden
In our childish lips
They’d die for a kiss
Fall was always left in your eyes
Just a fleck of yellow light
Like the sunrise
Like the twilight
Wonder English- Eisley (Day 3: Letters)
If I might be as so bold to say, you saved my life
I'm wondering, wonder English, oh I've found
Has no words to correctly describe
The way love sounds
Life, mankind, space, travel, time
Oh demons in the dark
Oh I will never let them tear us apart
On The Safest Ledge- Copeland (Day 4: Hand in Hand)
Don't look ahead, just run to me
Each step will find the next one recklessly
We'll find ourselves on the safest ledge
Well pardon me, I couldn't help myself
But fall into your life here
Could you be happy to fall like a stone,
If you'd land right here safe in my arms?
You feel like someone's standing by
But you'll never know
The sun burns a hole straight through your old flaws
If you look toward the sky, even on your grayest night
Could you be happy now with the wind in your hair,
And your eyes open wide, and your feet going nowhere?
invisible string- Taylor Swift (Day 5: By A Thread)
Time, curious time
Gave me no compasses, gave me no signs
Were there clues I didn't see?
And isn't it just so pretty to think
All along there was some
Invisible string tying you to me?
Time, mystical time
Cutting me open, then healing me fine
Were there clues I didn't see?
A Melody, The Memory- Mae (Day 6: In Another Life)
Is that your song I hear playing?
Cause I'm feeling it too
Does it take all direction, all control over you?
When you sing do you slip away?
Back to that place in your mind?
Let our love be the one thing you won't leave behind
I know you're reminiscing through our romance
Rewind and play
Time to go backwards again
I'm moved by the way
All the notes in-time make a sweet melody
Night into day
We have been captured again
A new time and place to make a million new memories
Museum- Kitsch Club (Day 7: Free Day)
Let's get on a train
Or maybe a boat
There's a place I wanna go
There's a place I wanna show you
I wanna take ya to a museum
All the things inside, we're gonna see 'em
I wanna hold your hand
I wanna read a plaque
I wanna look at stuff I don't understand
