WOULD YOU EVER DANCE WITH ME LIKE THAT? - A LILY/SCORPIUS MIX
oh god okay so this took a while but ta-da? i’m a bit iffy about some of the song choices for this and others i’m like ahhhhh so perfect. but, you know. biased. anyway, the songs are a mix of both lily and scor’s feelings and there are a few that match both, sort of. i don’t think it’s really difficult to figure out - lily wants to kick herself for all her stupid fantasies and wants to kick scorpius for making her feel the way she does about him and his treatment of her. and scorpius really can’t help treating her like that because it’s the only way that’s acceptable with his reputation and blood status etc. and yeah, i hope these songs make sense to people who are not just me. good. cool. enjoy~!

ANOTHER THING COMING UNDONE - A LILY/SCORPIUS FANMIX
PROLOGUE (in a boy’s bed with your pants off)
it had been an accident. a purposeful accident on scorpius’ part, and a fortunate mistake on hers. for him, it was about scaring away the hoardes of girls following him and perhaps pissing off a couple of weasleys while he did it. for her, it was about his lips pressed against hers, and feeling his hands brush over the exposed skin just below her shirt.
new year’s kiss - casiotone for the painfully alone {not the way that you’d imagined it, on a balcony with champagne lips, but in a pantry against the pancake mix, you had your new year’s kiss}
national anthem - lana del ray {and you can’t keep your hands off me, or your pants on, see what you’ve done to me?}
PART ONE (i don’t know what’s good for me)
she told herself that she wouldn’t give in. his stupid deal was just that - stupid. play at being his girlfriend, why would she play at being his girlfriend? what, because he got her panties in a twist (both literally and figuratively)? no. no, she wouldn’t let herself be used so he could scare off some first years with crushes. no. she wouldn’t. and she kept telling herself that, right until she found herself pressed against the wall, him pressing kisses to her throat and half smirking at the shocked faces of their onlookers.
when you were young - the killers {watch it now, here he comes, he doesn’t look a thing like jesus, but he talks like a gentlemen, like you imagined when you were young}
the killing moon - nouvelle vague {the killing time, unwillingly mine, fate up against your will, through the thick and thin, he will wait until you give yourself to him}
portions for foxes - rilo kiley {there’s a pretty young thing in front of you, and she’s real pretty and she’s real into you, and then she’s sleeping inside of you}
diet mnt dew - lana del ray {you’re no good for me, baby, you’re no good for me, but baby i want you, i want you, diet mnt dew baby new york city, never was there ever a girl so pretty, do you think we’ll be in love forever, do you think we’ll be in love}
hounds of love - kate bush {now hounds of love are hunting, i’ve always been a coward, and i don’t know what’s good for me}
PART TWO (you break my heart each time)
“i love you,” she stuttered out one night. she considered continuing, and telling him about how she was tired and lonely — and she shouldn’t feel lonely when she was sleeping with somebody and holding hands with somebody and telling that somebody she loved them, should she? she considered telling him that she wanted him, not the stupid rumours that kept away his fangirls. she considered telling him everything. but he was already asleep. “i’ll try in the morning,” she promised herself, but he was already gone when she woke up.
let’s talk about spaceships - say hi to your mom {let’s talk about spaceships, or anything except you and me okay? let’s talk about spaceships, or anything except you and me okay? okay}
liar, liar - a fine frenzy {liar liar, you’re such a great big liar, with the tallest tales, that i have ever heard, fire fire, you set my soul on fire, laughing in the corner, as it burns}
expo ‘86 - death cab for cutie {i am waiting for something to wrong, i am waiting for familiar resolve, i am waiting for another repeat, another diet fed by crippling defeat}
a wish - gregory and the hawk {i wish to feel smaller under your hands, though you seem satisfied as you slip mine down your pants, and i’m thinkin’ about how you care half as much for me, while you lift up my shirt after asking politely}
and darling - tegan and sara {i know you don’t mean to be mean, i’m sure you know the same for me, when you creep up and tell me, darling, it breaks my heart each time you, darling, you break my heart each time you}
PART THREE (i won’t ever be your cornerstone)
three little words. she didn’t know how to say them, although she had repeated them to herself in the mirror enough times. but that wasn’t the same, she couldn’t feel his body pressed against hers and couldn’t look straight in his eyes and couldn’t tell it right to his face and change things like she so desperately wanted to. she wanted change. she wanted love. she wanted countless things that he couldn’t give. sighing softly, “i want out.”
bull to the red - lucy rose {you said today was going to be the day, i found out the truth about you and me, was it ever really meant to be?}
between the lines - sara bareilles {‘cause i can’t continue pretending to choose, these opposite sides on which we fall, the loving you laters if at all, no right minds could wrong be this many times}
satellite heart - anya marina {so pretty, so smart, such a waste of a young heart, what a pity, what a sham, what’s the matter with your man?}
pyro - kings of leon {i, i won’t ever be your cornerstone, i, i don’t wanna be here holding on, i, i won’t ever be your cornerstone}
runaway - the national {but i won’t a runaway, ’cause i won’t run, no, i won’t be a runaway, what makes you think i enjoy being led to the flood? we’ve got another thing comin’ undone, and it’s takin’ us over}
EPILOGUE (it was make believe)
al and rose and dom and molly. four reasons why she was there. scorpius. one reason why she didn’t want to be. but four outweighed one and she turned up at the graduation party anyway. sometime during the celebrations, she found herself face to face with him. they could have slipped away. they could have got drunk. she could have decided differently. but instead, she shook her head a fraction and walked away. time for them both to grow up, she thought.
i always knew - tilly and the wall {so you won’t forget about oh how she loved you, so long ago, once upon a time, now she has grown up, and you can’t take it back}
lover’s spit - broken social scene {all these people drinking lover’s spit, they sit around and clean their face with it, and they listen to teeth to learn how to quit, tied to a night they never met, you know it’s time that we grow old and do some shit, i like it all that way}
since i can’t offer a download because my laptop’s broken, here’s a youtube playlist.
in which evie reuses every song she’s ever used in a mix ever. (i think the fact that half of these are from crush mixes and the other half from doctor/river mixes should say something, BUT.) this isn’t in any sort of order, i’m not that organised. it’s basically just adorable, fun songs that hopefully sum up lily and hugo’s adorable funness. after operation lightning (wink wink nudge nudge) i’ll probably do a whole other mix because. well. i’m me. one day in and i’ve already produced this thing. SO UH YEAH. it turned out really shippy, gosh. unintentional, i swear, even though i’m me and we all know i ship literally everything. but it’s hard to find cutesy songs without a few mentions of love somewhere! alas~ i hope it’s not too terrible!
hugo & lily - waiting never quite felt like waiting when waiting was with you
bad things are coming, we are safe - emmy the great
{i fell asleep and now i am afraid, the sun came up so quick and i, have always been suspicious of the day, the dream i had that you were in turned bad and then it finished, and i am glad to be awake, and glad to be with you, cause i feel safe when we’re together, read to me again about the king who took his daughter to the feast, tell me how she lifted up her veils and she laid them at his feet}
spine - page france
{you were my beliefs all rusting over and i was the support within your spine, we noticed that the stars were all exploding so we stared into the sky until we were blind, then cut off both of our arms and reached for nothing and rewound the frames that twisted in our minds, and we watched seperate lives in backwards motion, so we ended up connected at the sides}
metric - gimme sympathy
{talk like an open book, sign me up, got no time to take a picture; i’ll remember someday, all the chances we took, we’re so close to something better left unknown, we’re so close to something better left unknown, i can feel it in my bones, gimme sympathy after all of this is gone, who’d you rather be, the beatles or the rolling stones? oh, seriously, you’re gonna make mistakes you’re young, come on baby play me something, like here comes the sun}
i’ll hold my breath - ellie goulding
{until you see me in your dreams, we’ll stay awake beneath the trees, we’ll watch the buildings turn to dust, a sky of diamonds just for us, you are the risk i’ll always take, the only branch i’ll never break, those fears will blow them all away, will blow them all away, fight fires in your best clothes, touch skin with your eyes closed, chase thunder with the volume down, pack a suitcase wonder to the next town, force quit on your losing streak, solve a riddle in a magazine be tongue in cheek, tell me that we’re still too you, that we’re still too young and i’ll hold my tongue}
dick & jane - sidney york
{dick put those sheets away, says jane you look the same as you did yesterday, and not the week before, jane, where’s my head today? ear left the pillow and my eyes float away, got a mind to be outdoors, and where should we go, and where should we go, and where should we go, jane loose those training wheels, the thought of leaving is so surreal}
great dj - the ting tings
{your folks got high a quarter to five, don’t you feel your growing up undone, nothing but the local dj, he said he had some songs to play, what went down from this fooling around, gave hope and a brand new day, imagine all the girls, ah ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, and the boys, ah ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, and the strings, eee, eee, eee, eee, eee, eee, eee, eee, and the drums, the drums, the drums, the drums, the drums, the drums, the drums, the drums, the drums, the drums, the drums, the drums}
i hate seagulls - kate nash
{i hate all the mistakes i make, i hate rude ignorant bastards, and i hate snobbery, i hate anyone who if i was serving chips wouldn’t talk to me, but i have a friend, with whom i like to spend, any time i can find with, i like sleeping in your bed, i like knowing what is going on inside your head, i like taking time and i like your mind, and i like when your hand is in mine, i like getting drunk on the tunes by the beach, i like picking strawberries, i like cream teas and i like reading ghost stories}
fair game - the like
{this wasn’t my dream, but every day keeps getting better, we only look mean, crazy like a fox; things aren’t how the seem, right? it’s all fair game, anyway, it’s all fair game, anyway, just a teeny bit amoral fiercely pessimistic, but we’re one big family, what’s that darling? who says family doesn’t kiss? oh every gang’s a bit incestuous; it’s just a game, and if you know the rules, you can’t get hurt we’re all the same, a bit tempestuous, but we’re just restless, right?}
it doesn’t have to be beautiful - slow club
{in the electrical storm you were running wild, you had a death wish you were a child, i came to bearing a lightning bolt, if you came back as the deep sea, i would come back as the salt, it’s like your head is stuck in a tightening vice, your ears are deaf to your friend’s advice, because you know that your heart will never be full, it doesn’t always have to be beautiful, unless its beautiful, okay leave now leave now if you just can’t stay, because there’s nothing worse than somebody pretending away, the years of their youth they will never get back, so I’ll go home and practice the traits you said I lacked}
what i wouldn’t do - a fine frenzy
{if we were children i would bake you a mud pie, warm and brown beneath the sun, never learned to climb a tree but i would try, just to show you what i’d done, oh what I wouldn’t do, if i had you, babe, i had you, oh what i wouldn’t do, if i had you, babe}
back to front - eliza doolittle
{if i woke up in the mornin’, and the world was back to front, there was sunshine in the evenin’, and the moon came out for lunch, i wouldn’t mind walkin’ backwards with you, at least we’d always know where we’d be goin’ to, we could talk till we forget how to talk, and we can learn to laugh again, like when we were children, we can learn to dance again, like nobody is watchin’}
five years time - noah and the whale
{‘cause i’ll be laughing at all your silly little jokes, and we’ll be laughing about how we used to smoke, all those stupid little cigarettes, and drink stupid wine, ‘cause it’s what we needed to have a good time, but it was fun fun fun, when we were drinking, it was fun fun fun, when we were drunk, and it was fun fun fun, when we were dancing, it was fun fun fun, oh it was fun, well, then i look at you and say, it’s the happiest that i’ve ever been, and i’ll say i no longer feel i have to be james dean, and she’d say, yeah well i feel pretty happy too, and i’m always pretty happy when I’m just kicking back with you}
let’s get lost - bat for lashes
{touch me i’m golden and wild as the wind blows, and tumbling tumbling, don’t go fascination, if just for tonight darling, let’s get lost, if just for tonight darling, let’s get lost, let me come closer, i’m not your shadow, with our eyes shielding from the oncoming counts, it’s not hard for us to say what we should not, if just for tonight darling, let’s get lost, if just for tonight darling, let’s get lost}
we will not grow old - lenka
{you and me will be lying side by side, forever, forever, underneath this adolescent sky together, together, and you will hold my heart inside your hand, and you’ll be the one to tell me, oh we’ve got a long, long way to go, to get there, we’ll get there, but oh, if there’s one thing that we know, it’s that we will not grow old}
get lost - patrick wolf
{let’s just bin the invitation, leave our bikes down at the station, and lose all sense of direction, i’m going to get lost with you, yes we will run, come get lost with me, slip away discreetly, you’re my love so come get lost with me, ‘til we run on empty}
BONUS SONG - this one isn’t on the mix because YOU HAVE TO GO BUY IT and no i’m not being a heartless bitch, it’s for charity and it will make alex day smile. so go~
forever yours - alex day
{remember the time when we stole the whole day? and nobody knows it, we took it away, and it will be forever mine, and it will be forever yours, now we own the night, and it can’t be undone, we’ll never forget how it feels to be young, cause it will be forever mine, and it will be forever yours}
