Myself and the other admins thought that this was a great idea when mentioned on Discord. So over to you our wonderful crew and I look forward to seeing what kind of Playlist we create that reminds us of or reflect our characters personalities.

For Felicity: Mary Black - ColumbusListen on SpotifyListen on YouTubeBut whhhhyyyy!?: This one has no obvious connection to Felicity, apart from the title being the very same as the station where her RP life began. My interpretation of the song itself is deeply personal to me, with beautifully crafted lyrics speaking to anxiety, darkness and escaping that trapped feeling that everyone with a wandering soul often experiences. Felicity is probably one of the most explored and complex characters I've had in a while, and I think that she's experienced these feelings on multiple occasions throughout her life. ~~~ For Charlie: SAYGRACE, feat. G-Eazy - You Don't Own MeListen on SpotifyListen on YouTubeBut whhhhyyyy!?: Pretty self-explanatory. XD ~~~ For Cheesy Lynch: The Commitments - Try A Little TendernessListen on SpotifyListen on YouTubeBut whhhhyyyy!?: So it's not possible for me to have anything but an Irish entry for Cheesy. I figure he would absolutely have a party-piece go-to, especially for all of those after-hours sessions he attends. And while this song was originally a soul classic, this cover is by a band that can't get any more Dublin. Conor Lynch might not have much luck with the ladies, but that wouldn't stop him from wanting to try a little tenderness every now and then. ~~~ For Costa: Kehlani - HoneyListen on SpotifyListen on YouTubeBut whhhhyyyy!?: Normally when I think of Costa and music, I'd think hard rock or even maybe thumping techno. But in the end I went with Honey. Don't let the sweet melody or words fool you, this is definitely 50 Shades of Costa. She's a beautiful wreck, a heartbreak veteran with a stone-cold neck, but a little charming. ~~~ For Candy: Daryl Hall & John Oates - ManeaterListen on SpotifyListen on YouTubeBut whhhhyyyy!?: Because the female of the species is more deadly than the male, yo.

Front Ear Station and Crew: "The Islander" by NightwishNot only is Front Ear a run-down station at the edge of Federation space, far away from everything, a destination to both those passing through as well as those looking for a home... So many of the residents have lives they've left behind, either by choice or force, to create a new life for themselves in the middle of nowhere. Jovireh Velal:"Titanium" by David Guetta ft. SiaThis song rather accurately portrays how much Jov has grown in her time on Front Ear. Shedding the insecurities caused by unjust mistreatment by former senior and commanding officers, finding worth and potential in herself, and growing into her own strength and confidence. "Shot In The Dark" by Within TemptationThis one really expresses her emotional turmoil and her constant struggle to hold herself together and keep pushing through, how she often feels like she's going through everything alone even though she doesn't want to turn to anyone else. "Innocence" by HalestormRather fitting of her strict avoidance of any form of emotional/romantic relationship. Jov feels like she's too unstable, too reckless, too much to burden other people with. She'll pursue physical encounters, but ghosts as soon as they express an interest in taking it further. Paawin Riyo:"Earth" by Sleeping At LastEverytime I listen to this, I'm reminded of Riyo's traumatic past, and his way of shoving everything out of sight beneath the surface and pretending everything is fine... until his life is shaken and he shatters, forced to face what he's tried to forget so he can finally heal.

Phoebe Voante: Dance with the Dead - GoPhoebe studied hard at the academy, giving it her all. She aimed high and moved fast believing it to be the only way to seek her revenge but also because she would rather burn bright and be snuffed out suddenly, then to stay hidden and fade away into silence. Bonus: She joined starfleet believed it to be like this. An organisation made of people who all worked together regardless of background to achieve greatness as one cohesive team, bringing victory and peace to all. By the end of her academic run however, she veiwed Starfleet Command more like this. A bunch of borderline lunatics spouting nonsense at their subordinates and then cutting loose in the final moments leaving those beneath them to deal with the concequences. Though the Front Ear and it's crew have been kinder than the academy and as such are more along the line of this. For now.

StrongerI chose this song as I think it very much represents Leanna and how she endured all the hardships in her life, especially the most recent one when Aven was only 8 weeks old. I also wanted to include this second song to reflect the happiness that she's now found. Amazed

For Thea this song just got stuck in my head and couldn't stop thinking about it as I do think it suits her especially after all she's achieved. On a MissionI also couldn't do this without mentioning her relationship with Isaiah and how she's grown because of that. It may be cheesy but it's appropriate. Something In Your Eyes

Who: Mika Kobayashi
Why: It's a simple feel-good song that pretty much summarizes Mika's personality. Things do go wrong but if she chooses to be happy and/or enthusiastic during that particular moment, she has the emotional capacity to do so.

Syl O'Connell:"Remember Everything" by Five Finger Death PunchThis song very accurately summarizes Syl's emotions towards her family. She feels the guilt and shame for not living up to their expectations, but is also hurt and angry that due to their anger of her slacking performance in school, they weren't there for her when she needed them most. There's a constant battle inside her between the desperation to redeem herself in their eyes... while knowing that they can never redeem themselves in hers. "Pale" by Within TemptationHer depression and suicidal thoughts are also a constant battle for her, and this is what she tells herself every time she sinks too low. If she gives in, then even with her abuser dead, he'd still be winning. She's stronger than that, and he no longer has that power over her. Every day is a search for a reason to keep on living. "Journey" by Natasha BlumeIn rare moments, Syl realizes she didn't deserve the treatment she received from her family. She is proud of herself for surviving, and not completely failing out of the Academy at the same time. After spending years fighting for her life, she's earned a rest.

For Carlisle, I picked I'm Alive - Becca. This song is happy, upbeat, and just aggressively optimistic. Ultimately it is a positive affirmation of her existence, despite or perhaps in spite of the circumstances of her creation.

A little insight into our resident, Andorian. "Stronger" by Kanye West (clean version) One reason is the sound. It has that tech-y taste, and if you know Kova that is easily the world she dwells in. In addition to that, only Kanye West could compose a song that gives off as much ego as Kova would require. The Andorian has seen adversity, and would like to think that she has grown stronger because of it. She's not conventional, but she is what she deems necessary to get the job done. At least that's the image she portrays to the world: strength, independence, badass-ery. "If You Love Her" by Forest BlakkIt's been rumoured that Kova has a gooey center deep within the crevices of her ice cold heart (it's all lies, Charlie!). She'd never admit it, but this song speaks to just that. Kova is fiercely loyal to those that she cares about and loves. For years, she's kept people at a distance to avoid being vulnerable to the pain that comes with loving anyone. Thus far, no one has been able to reach that part of Kova, but that isn't to suggest that it's impossible.
