Title: Pale Princess Of A Palace Cracked
Fandom: Gemma Doyle Trilogy
Pairing: Felicity/Pippa
Spoilers/Warnings (if any): General spoilers for all three books.
Notes: Inspired after a night of slightly crazed Clark/Lana YouTube video watching. I'm not....entirely sure how that happened. The mix stretches through all three books in the trilogy and consists of mostly Felicity-POV songs, with some crazy Pippa stuff thrown in too. The cover art for this thing nearly killed me, but you know, I'm actually rather liking it now. Enjoy!

Title: I Do Not Hook Up
Fandom: Know Not Why by dollsome
Character: Amber Clark
Spoilers/Warnings (if any): General spoilers for everything.
Notes: For dollsome because she is lovely! Also because there is nothing like a mix about someone who is a very good example of female kickassery to propel you out of sadness. ♥ (Also, also, I changed the extensions to '.doc' when I uploaded it, because there is NO WAY your evil school is going to go, "Hmmm, this Word file is not what it seems, and actually a cleverly disguised .zip of illegal music!" NO WAY. THEY'D HAVE TO BE, LIKE, FREAKING NINJAS.)



( 7 songs in a .zip file + artwork and track listing under the cut )

Title: Who I Appear To Be
Fandom: Skins
Character: Effy Stonem
Spoilers/Warnings (if any): General series spoilers up to 3x05 "Freddie"
Notes: This mix is structured a little differently from my usual ones. It's in semi-chronological order, but the first half is about how other people perceive Effy (and how she wants them to perceive her), while the second half reflects the girl behind the walls. Enjoy! Comment if you download, and all that jazz.

Unrequited (?) love. We all know the feeling. It's hope and butterflies and sunshine and pain and doubt and longing. Do you say something? If you do, what you have - smiles across the cafeteria, walks on icy streets, laughter, comfort, silliness - could become so much more, and it would be lovely, no, better than lovely. But maybe you can't. Because you know it might not. That what you've longed for will be exposed for what it really is - just a fantasy.

This mix is about unrequited (?) love. Molly requested it (♥♥♥), but I know there's more of you on my f-list struck with the lovebug this time of year. So, this one's for you. For the ones who've said something and had their dreams crushed, and the ones who are still trying to build up the courage.

One serving of unrequited (?) love with a side of hope. ♥

"You will never be as you were. What is left to you is the chance to become something new and unsure. But at least the waiting is over." (Rebel Angels, Libba Bray)

Title: A Fragment Of Light
Fandom: Brideshead Revisited (2008)
Pairing: Charles/Sebastian
Spoilers/Warnings (if any): General spoilers for the movie.
Notes: Because this movie ate my LIFE, and Charles/Sebastian makes my heart all light and fluttery in a way that is usually reserved for pairings that are on my TV screen for more than one hour and forty minutes. Special thanks goes to dollsome, whose awesome picspam made me watch the movie in the first place (and who provided the caps for the cover art). Enjoy! Comment if you download, and all that jazz.

Title: Pocketful Of Sunshine
Fandom: Know Not Why by dollsome
Pairing: N/A
Spoilers/Warnings (if any): N/A
Notes: I present to you a Kristy Quincy mixtape! Specifically, a Kristy Quincy, 'songs to cheer you up :D' mixtape. Because dollsome asked, and I think we've already established that I'm the easiest thing since...oh I don't even know, SOMETHING EASY. Also, yes, the post-it on the cover is on top of someone's math homework. Why? Because I was procrastinating on MY math homework while I was making it. Hannah, hopefully you are INSPIRED. ♥ Enjoy!

Annnnd now we have mix request number two! Several of these songs are in Japanese (OH JPOP), but I feel not knowing the lyrics does not detract from any awesome dancing that you might partake in. Though I am pretty sure - judging from the English bits they sing anyway ('in your body, let's get naughty, in your body, just shake your body') -  that it's all slinky, sexy stuff.

There is actually quite a lot of slinky, sexy stuff on here, because THAT IS MOSTLY WHAT I DANCE TO. But there are also songs for ridiculous flailing ("Girlfriend", I'm looking at you), so if slinking is not your thing, WORRY NOT.

Also, FUN FACT, "Buttons" is totally my secretly-filthy!Colin theme song, YES IT IS. Enjoy! ♥

The first of the mix requests! I, personally, will listen to ANYTHING when I sleep, so I took ten of the laziest, driftiest, 'rainy Sunday morning in bed'-iest songs off my headache playlist to put this together. Enjoy. ♥

Title: Accidentally In Love
Fandom: Know Not Why by dollsome
Pairing: Gen, Howie/Arthur
Spoilers/Warnings (if any): All chapters, plus added speculation.
Notes: Once upon a time, I promised dollsome a slice of the fashion!AU for her birthday. Then I got struck by a seriously crippling case of writer's block. So recently I was pondering exactly what I should give her in replace, and this idea hit me like a ton of bricks. I was going to wait a little longer before doing this (to let the plot of Know Not Why unfold more), only then I realized it would be TOTALLY LAME to give someone a birthday gift for 2008 in 2009, so HERE IT IS.

dollsome: my love for your Krafty Times fic has now soared past the line for 'probably unhealthy' and into 'psychotic stalker' territory, it appears. However, it doesn't even come close to my love for YOU (UM, HOPEFULLY THAT DOESN'T COME ACROSS AS TOTALLY CREEPY. ...IT TOTALLY DID, DIDN'T IT?). You are an intelligent, enthusiastic, and terribly fun person and I am so proud to call you one of my LJ friends. ♥

Happy extremely belated birthday Hannah! (Also, there is a movie poster version of the artwork here, because I am a loser and really wanted to make one. Also, also, I think you mentioned that Sendspace worked best for you, so I uploaded the .zip there as well as on Mediafire.)

Title: The Heart Was Rejected By the Host
Fandom: Doctor Who
Pairing: Doctor/Master
Spoilers/Warnings (if any): General series spoilers up to 3x13 "Last of the Time Lords".
Notes: bornbackwards requested a Doctor/Master mix, so here it is (er, I'm not really sure what's going on with the cover art. IT SEEMED LIKE A GOOD IDEA AT THE TIME)! The mix starts from when the Doctor and the Master were at the Academy on Gallifrey, and stretches to the S3 finale. Happy Christmas, Sheena. ♥ Enjoy! Comment if you download, and feel free to drop me a note if you only want one or two songs and I'll upload them for you ASAP.

(Also, my view on the Doctor and Master's youth was largely shaped by the ton of fanfic I consumed back when my Doctor Who obsession was at its prime, so I present to you what's basically morphed into my entire personal canon on the issue: the naming of things by ariastar. It's very, very lovely and totally worth a read even if you're not downloading this thing.)

Title: First Breath After Coma
Fandom: Merlin
Pairing: Arthur/Merlin
Spoilers/Warnings (if any): General series spoilers up to the preview for 1x13, that aired at the end of 1x12 "To Kill a King". The rest is just speculation on my part.
Notes: Oh God, this mix turned into a MONSTER on me. It's an S1 finale mix, for Arthur and Merlin, divided into two parts. Also, I am weirdly happy with my cover art this time around, despite the simplicity. Enjoy! Comment if you download, and feel free to drop me a note if you only want one or two songs and I'll upload them for you ASAP.

Title: This House Is On Fire
Fandom: Merlin
Pairing: Uther/Morgana
Spoilers/Warnings (if any): General series spoilers up to 1x12 "To Kill a King"
Notes: For all the Uther/Morgana fans on my f-list. Because I couldn't ask for a more awesome group of people to share in the colour-coded, sexylicious, clothes!porn, glove!porn, imprisoning, hate!sexing fires of the kinkiest ship on Merlin. Happy JESUS CHRIST THE FINALE IS ON SATURDAY week!

sophieisgod, dollsome, AND, thisissirius have all requested music lately, and since sitting around and rifling through my iPod is one of my lame hobbies, I HAVE OBLIGED. Only, I never have any idea WHAT to upload for people, so this is basically just me going "HERE, HAVE SOME RANDOM LINKS, GUYS!!"

Albums
I listen pretty exclusively to female artists, but I know a lot of people on my f-list listen pretty exclusively to male artists SO THIS WORKS OUT PERFECTLY. Also, two OSTs I loved so much that I am sharing them too.

Made of Bricks - Kate Nash
My December - Kelly Clarkson
Little Voice - Sara Bareilles
Speak for Yourself - Imogen Heap

Once More With Feeling (Buffy the Vampire Slayer) OST
Torchwood OST

My Fanmixes
I always feel totally shameful pimping out my own stuff, but I love my mix playlists like PIE. And if there's an artist on there you particularly like, you can come and tackle me and I'll upload what I have of theirs!

I Will Be The Answer (At The End Of The Line) - Arthur/Merlin
She'll Steal Your Heart (To Save Her Skin) - Jenny Humphrey

~SUPER SPECIAL BONUS~
REMEMBER THIS? Um, I made a playlist just to give myself inspiration as I write, but I ended up turning it into a semi-ficmix (it's not exactly written around songs, so MAYBE IT IS JUST A FIC-BASED FANMIX?).

THAT'S RIGHT, I ENDED UP MAKING A MIX FOR A FIC THAT IS HALF UNWRITTEN, FOR A PAIRING I MADE UP. I AM RIDICULOUS. AS IS THIS MIX.

Dirty Mind - Jethro/Ben

( Track listing under the cut, though no art since my manip skillz are non-existent )

Title: She'll Steal Your Heart (To Save Her Skin)
Fandom: Gossip Girl
Character: Jenny Humphrey
Spoilers/Warnings (if any): General series spoilers up to 2x11 "The Magnificent Archibalds".
Notes: I don't really know where this came from, but I did really enjoy making it. A mix covering Jenny's crazy journey of self discovery. Enjoy! Comment if you download, and feel free to drop me a note if you only want one or two songs and I'll upload them for you ASAP.

Title: I Will Be The Answer (At The End Of The Line)
Fandom: Merlin (the 2008 BBC TV series, not that random movie from the 90s)
Pairing: Arthur/Merlin
Spoilers/Warnings (if any): General series spoilers up to 1x07 "The Gates of Avalon", but I opted out of doing those little explanatory notes, so nothing's really mentioned, per se. Actually, if you know what the series is about, you should be good, since all this mix really does is insert its own subtext and speculate about future events like a crazy thing.
Notes: This mix has pretty much been killing me for the past week. At one point it was...40 songs long? I've been trimming and rearranging and redoing the artwork (AND I'M STILL NOT SATISFIED WITH THE DAMN TEXT), and by this point I think I've polished it up as much as possible without driving myself insane. I'm pretty happy with the music selection at this point, even though practically all the male artists I put in there got cut (FREAKING PRONOUNS. I'm POSITIVE that none of these have incorrect pronouns, because of the sheer amount of time it took me to weed out all the ones that did), and it's kind of a big, sappy, love fest. Because that's how I see Arthur/Merlin: an epic love story with ten million obstacles but a satisfyingly cheesy and dramatic happy ending - dramatic violins of emo HAPPINESS AND JOY, and all. Just feel lucky you guys escaped Josh Groban's "You Raise Me Up". I was seriously THIS close to putting that on here, but finally decided that would be too sappy and 90s even for me. UM, ANYWAY. ENJOY! And comment if you download, and stuff. ♥ (Also, feel free to drop me a note if you only want one or two songs and I'll upload them for you ASAP.)

ETA: Oh, and it would be much appreciated if anyone could tell me where, exactly, I should pimp this baby out (besides fanmix, which is the only comm I can ever consistently remember to pimp things at).

Title: Can I Have A Kiss?
Pairing: Ned/Chuck
Spoilers/Warnings (if any): Up to and including 1x09: Corpsicle
Notes: Started out as a Chuck fanmix, but then it morphed into Ned/Chuck. It also starts out in chronological order, but then veers off abruptly. 13 songs are in English, 2 in Japanese, and 2 are instrumentals. It's all in one big .rar file at the bottom, but if there's only one or two songs you want, comment and I shall upload them for you. :D
