1. Rewrite the Stars from The Greatest Showman
How do we rewrite the stars?
Say you were made to be mine?
Nothing can keep us apart
Cause you are the one I was meant to find
It's up to you
And it's up to me
No one can say what we get to be
Why don't we rewrite the stars?
Changing the world to be ours

2. About Today by the National
Today you were far away
and I didn't ask you why
What could I say
I was far away
You just walked away
and I just watched you
What could I say
How close am I to losing you

3. Delicate by Damien Rice
We might kiss when we are alone
When nobody's watching
We might take it home
We might make out when nobody's there
It's not that we're scared
It's just that it's delicate

4. Even Though Our Love is Doomed by Garbage
And even though our love is doomed
And even though we're all messed up
We're still waiting for tomorrow
We're still aching for tomorrow
And even though our love is cruel
And even though our stars are crossed
You're the only thing worth fighting for
You're the only thing worth dying for

5. Perfect for You from Next to Normal
But even if everything else turns to dirt
We'll be the one thing in this world that wont hurt.
I can't fix what's fucked up
But one thing I know I can do
I can be perfect for you

6. Old College Try by the Mountain Goats
From the cities to the swamplands
From the highways to the hills
Our love has never had a leg to stand on
From the aspirins to the cross-tops to the Elavils
But I will walk
Down to the end with you
If you will come
All the way down with me

7. School Night by Ani Difranco
and you'll never know, dear
just how much i loved you
you'll probably think this was
just my big excuse
but i stand committed
to a love that came before you
and the fact that i adore you
is but one of my truths

8. Simple Together by Alanis Morissette
If I had a bill for all the philosophies I shared
If I had a penny for all the possibilities I presented
If I had a dime for every hand thrown up in the air
My wealth would render this no less severe
I thought we'd be genius together
I thought we'd be healing together
I thought we'd be growing together
Thought we'd be adventurous together
But I was sadly mistaken

9. I Just Don't Think I'll Ever Get Over You by Colin Hay
I drink good coffee every morning
Comes from a place that's far away
And when I'm done I feel like talking
Without you here there is less to say
Don't want you thinking I'm unhappy
What is closer to the truth
If I lived till I was a hundred and two
I just don't think I'll ever get over you

10. Wish That You Were Here by Florence + The Machine
And I never minded being on my own
Then something broke in me and I wanted to go home
To be where you are
But even closer to you, you seem so very far
And now I'm reaching out with every note I sing
And I hope it gets to you on some pacific wind
Wraps itself around you and whispers in your ear
Tells you that I miss you and I wish that you were here

Happy Birthday, Ella. My gift is the gift of making us both sad, I guess.

Happy Birthday, Emily! For your birthday I made you a fanmix of our favorite culebra and conman (more inspired by villagers stuff than strictly canon). If the embedded player doesn't work you can follow the link here

Tracklist

1. Wasp Nest by The National
Your eyes are broken bottles
And I'm afraid to ask
And all your wrath and cutting beauty
You're poison in the pretty glass
You're a wasp nest, you're a wasp nest

2. Hot Knife by Fiona Apple
If I'm butter, if I'm butter,
If I’m butter, then he's a hot knife,
He makes my heart a cinemascope screen
Showing the dancing bird of paradise.

I'm a hot knife, I'm a hot knife,
I'm a hot knife, he's a pat of butter.
If I get a chance, I'm gonna show him that
He's never gonna need another, never need another.

3. Sad Eyes by Bat for Lashes
I can tell that you're lonely
But it seems now
There's nothing you want me to do
So I won't try to take the sadness from those eyes that I love
Leave it open for someone else to

And when you smile those sad eyes
Look sadder and sadder still

4. That's What's Up by Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes
You be the book, I'll be the binding
You be the words, I'll be the rhyming
While I was feeling such a wreck I thought I was losing my mind
While I was feeling such a mess I thought the sun never shined
You be the bird, I'll be the feather
We'll be the best of friends forever
While I was feeling such a mess I thought you'd leave me behind
While I was feeling such a wreck I thought you'd treat me unkind
Then I'll find forever and always
You've got my love to lean on darling

5. I'll Believe in Anything by Wolf Parade
We've both been very brave
Walk around with both legs
Fight the scary day
We both pull the tricks out of our sleeves

But I'll believe in anything
And you'll believe in anything

6. I'm an Animal by Neko Case
Pick up that rock (drink from that lake)
I do my best but I'm made of mistakes
Yes, there are things I'm still quite sure of
I love you this hour
This hour today
And heaven will smell like the airport (airport)
But I may never get there to prove it
So let's not waste our time thinking how that ain't fair

I'm an animal
You're an animal, too

7. Keep Breathing by Ingrid Michaelson
I want to change the world
Instead I sleep
I want to believe in more than you and me

But all that I know is I'm breathing
All I can do is keep breathing
All we can do is keep breathing now

8. Play Crack the Sky by Brand New
What they call love is a risk, cause you will always get hit out of nowhere by some wave and end up on your own.
The hole in the hull defied the crews attempts to bail us out.
And flooded the engines and radio and half buried bow.
Your tongue is a rudder.
It steers the whole ship.
Sends your words past your lips or keeps them safe behind your teeth.
But the wrong words will strand you.
Come off course while you sleep.
Sweep your boat out to sea or dashed to bits on the reef.

9. The Dress Looks Nice On You by Sufjan Stevens
I can see a lot of life in you
I can see a lot of bright in you
And I think the dress looks nice on you
I can see a lot of life in you

I can see a bed and make it too
I can see a fireside turn blue
And I can see the lot of life in you
Yes, I can see a lot of life in you

10. Melt Your Heart by Jenny Lewis and the Watson Twins
And we've lost the people we could have loved, and you...
What you know you have or what you think you want
It's never perfect

It's bound to melt your heart
One way or another
It's bound to melt your heart
For good or for bad
It's like a valentine
From your mother
It's bound to melt your heart

Are we killing time?
Are we killing each other?

Tracklist:

1. Do Anything by Mary Lambert
Here I wait
Brush against my skin
I feel the waves
Of every open door
I could have stayed
I could have stayed and been fine
I could have stayed

2. Girl by Tori Amos
She crawls
Clutching her faded photograph
My image under her thumb
Yes with a message for my heart
She's been everybody else's girl
Maybe one day she'll be her own
Everybody else's girl
Maybe one day she'll be her own

3. Virgin State of Mind by K's Choice
There's a chair in my head on which I used to sit
Took a pencil and I wrote the following on it
Now there's a key where my wonderful mouth used to be
Dig it up, throw it at me
Dig it up, throw it at me
Where can I run to, where can I hide
Who will I turn to now I'm in a virgin state of mind

4. I'm Fine by Kimya Dawson
Milli vanilli met liza minelli
They got really giddy acted all silly
Sang me a song I didn't understand
And I started to fly in slow motion
Flew to the bottom unplugged the ocean
Embossed and frosted and toasted and tanned
With your cock on my sleeve, my heart in your hand
And I am fine, I'm fine, I'm fine
I am fine, I'm fine, I'm fine

5. In the Rough by Anna Nalick
I got your love letters
I threw them all away
And I hear you think that I'm crazy
I'm driving 95
And I'm driving you away
And I shine a little more lately
Someday love will find me in the rough
Someday love will finally be enough

6. Fight Song by Rachel Platten
And all those things I didn't say
Wrecking balls inside my brain
I will scream them loud tonight
Can you hear my voice this time?

7. Try by Colbie Caillat
You don't have to try so hard
You don't have to give it all away
You just have to get up, get up, get up, get up
You don't have to change a single thing

8. In My Mind by Amanda Palmer
And it's funny how I imagined
That I could be that person now
But that's not what I want
But that's what I wanted
And I'd be giving up somehow
How strange to see
That I don't wanna be the person that I want to be

9. Changes (Cover) by Cristin Milioti
Strange fascination, fascinating me
Changes are taking the pace
I'm going through
Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes

10. This is Me by Kesha
When the sharpest words wanna cut me down
I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown them out
I am brave, I am bruised
I am who I'm meant to be, this is me
Look out 'cause here I come
And I'm marching on to the beat I drum
I'm not scared to be seen
I make no apologies, this is me

I made you a playlist/fanmix for Nora/Fallout 4 in general. if the player doesn't work you can also follow the link.

Tracklist:

1. Everybody Knows (cover) by Amanda Palmer
And everybody knows that it's now or never
Everybody knows that it's me or you
And everybody knows that you live forever
Ah when you've done a line or two
Everybody knows the deal is rotten
Old Black Joe's still pickin' cotton
For your ribbons and bows
And everybody knows

2. The Day the Whole World Went Away by Nine Inch Nails
I'd listen to the words he'd say
But in his voice I heard decay
The plastic face forced to portray
All the insides left cold and gray
There is a place that still remains
It eats the fear it eats the pain
The sweetest price he'll have to pay
The day the whole world went away

3. Ain't No Rest for the Wicked by Cage the Elephant
Oh there ain't no rest for the wicked
Money don't grow on trees
I got bills to pay, I got mouths to feed
There ain't nothing in this world for free
Oh no, I can't slow down, I can't hold back
Though you know, I wish I could
Oh no there ain't no rest for the wicked
Until we close our eyes for good

4. Sweet Child O' Mine (cover) by Post Modern Jukebox
Where do we go?
Where do we go now?
Where do we go?
Sweet child o' mine

5. Iron Man by Nico Vega
You are relentless in the way that you know me
And I'm a sheep when it comes to explain'
I wish that I could keep you happy
I wish that I could keep you young
Please forgive me for the distance
But I'm an Iron Man
I'm an Iron Man

6. In Our Bedroom After the War by Stars
Lift your head and look out the window
Stay that way for the rest of the day and watch the time go
Listen! The birds sing! Listen! The bells ring!
All the living are dead, and the dead are all living
The war is over and we are beginning...

7. Down By the Water by PJ Harvey
I lost my heart
Under the bridge
To that little girl
So much to me
And now I'm old
And now I holler
She'll never know
Just what I found

8. Hunter by Bjork
You could smell it
so you left me on my own
to complete the mission
now I'm leaving it all behind

I'm going hunting
I'm the hunter...

9. This is Why We Fight by the Decembrists
Come the war
Come the avarice
Come the war
Come hell
Come attrition
Come the reek of bones
Come attrition
Come hell
This is why
Why we fight
Why we lie awake
And this is why
This is why we fight

10. Wish You Were Here (cover) by Rasputina

Did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
Did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?

11. Up the Wolves by The Mountain Goats
There's going to come a day when you feel better
You'll rise up free and easy on that day
And float from branch to branch, lighter than the air
Just when that day is coming, who can say, who can say?

12. Hold On, Hold On by Neko Case
The most tender place in my heart is for strangers
I know it's unkind but my own blood is much too dangerous
Hangin' round the ceiling half the time
Hangin' round the ceiling half the time
Compared to some I've been around
But I really tried so hard
That echo chorus lied to me with its
"Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on"

paperskin thank you ella for contributing

1. Coin Operated Boy by the Dresden Dolls
Made of plastic and elastic
He is rugged and long lasting
Who could ever ever ask for more?
Love without complications galore

2. Gimme Danger by Iggy Pop and the Stooges
Now, if you will be my lover
I will shiver and sing
But if you can't be my master
I will do anything
There's nothing left alive
But a pair of glassy eyes
Raise my feelings one more time

3. Use Somebody (cover) by Bat For Lashes
Someone like you, and all you know, and how you speak
Countless lovers under cover of the street
You know that I could use somebody

4. Fireproof by the National
You tell me you’re waiting
To find someone
Who isn’t so hopeless
But there’s no one

5. Lover I Don't Have to Love (cover) by Bettie Serveert
But you but you
You write such pretty words
But life's no story book
Love's an excuse to get hurt
And to hurt
"Do you like to hurt?"
"I do! I do!"
"Then hurt me."

6. Hold Onto Me by Placebo
And my behavior is hard to understand
When I'm like a phone with no connection
But I'm still doing all I can
To try and get me some redemption
And I'm knee deep in sinking sand
Crying out for your attention
Kindly lend a helping hand
For once defy convention

7. Toxic (Cover) by Yael Naim
It's getting late
To give you up
I took a sip
From my devil's cup
Slowly, it's taking over me
Too high
Can't come down
It's in the air and it's all around
Can you feel me now?

8. Okay I Believe You, But My Tommy Gun Don't by Brand New
Handsome and smart
Oh, my tongue's the only muscle in my body that works harder than my heart
And it's all from watching tv
And from speeding up my breathing
Wouldn't stop if I could
Oh, it hurts to be this good
You're holding on to your grudge
Oh, it hurts to always have be honest with the one you love
Oh, so let it go

9. Sorry by Halsey
I run away when things are good
And never really understood
The way you laid your eyes on me
In ways that no one ever could
And so it seems I broke your heart
My ignorance has struck again
I failed to see it from the start
And tore you open 'til the end

10. Over and Over by Evans Blue
You better see how evil you can be
When you see my evil smile
It's the one that you'll remember when I am not so kind
Can't you see that this is death and death is saving me
I say burn all your bridges while you still have control of the flame
I know it's hard but you...
Tell me, over and over and over and over and over again
It never was time for us, it never was time to let me in

11. Weak (cover) by K's Choice
(And) now I sit here I`m all alone
So here sits a bloody mess, tears fly home
A circle of angels, deep in war
`Cause I wanted you
Weak as I am, no tears for you

12. Deep Inside Of You by Third Eye Blind
I've never felt alone
'Till I met you
I'm all right on my own
And then I met you
And I'd know what to do if I just knew what's coming
I would change myself if I could
I'd walk with my people if I could find them

13. Touch by Daughter
Love hunt me down
I can't stand to be so dead behind the eyes
And feed me, spark me up
A creature in my blood stream chews me up
So I can feel something
So I can feel something

14. If You Don't, Don't by Jimmy Eat World
If you don't know, honey
Why'd you just say so?
'cause I need this now
More than I ever did
If you don't know, honey
Then you don't

15. Baker, Baker by Tori Amos
know you're late
For you next parade
You came to make sure
That I'm not running
Well I ran from him
In all kinds of ways
Guess it was his turn this time

16. Between the Bars by Elliot Smith
Drink up with me now
And forget all about
The pressure of days
Do what I say
And I'll make you okay
And drive them away
The images stuck in your head
