Happy song, bitter steps,
My heart skips to the melody's rep,
Yet my feet drag with every beat,
Memories of you weigh down my steps.
The joyous tune fills my ears,
But my eyes remain clouded with tears,
For every note that brings me bliss,
A pang of sorrow steals the hiss.
The rhythm bounces in my veins,
But the pain of loss still steps.
The lyrics of the tune so bright,
Remind me of our past delight,
The laughter, love and all the fun,
Now vanished like the setting sun.
The rhythm and the joyful notes,
Make me want to dance and float,
But as I move, it's out of synch,
My heart aches in a way so distinct.
For every time I hear this song,
A part of me sings along,
But the memory of our love awakes,
And I'm left with bitter steps to take.
So I dance with tears in my eyes,
And hold back all the painful sighs,
Happy song, bitter steps,
Reminding me of love's regrets.

I basically only use Spotify for writing playlists, so Spotify Wrapped blah blah blah, but I do want to confess to something stupid.
A lot of the time while writing my brain decides that one song is the best background music for the story, so I just loop the song and eventually stop really hearing it. This means that sometimes a song's playing for a while. I don't control the song.
This happened while writing No Name On The Bullet, which is 115k words. Anyway, so that's how I listened to an English cover of an anime intro 562 times over the course of probably a month.

@adoranoia said: ♦ slaps saeyoung here for otacon bc ofc <3
>>From this meme
He feels like his answer doesn't match up to Saeyoung's, isn't as good. Theirs had floored him, feeling unworthy of the intense praise. (they saw that in him? wha–how?)
He doesn't think his answer holds a candle to theirs.
But he needs to be honest for his turn.
And he thinks Saeyoung will understand.
❝Anime.❞ he replies with a soft grin. And he'll clarify anyway. Just in case. ❝You're like... anime come to life. In all the best ways. And I really don't know how I ever got lucky enough to deserve you.❞
