• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

Song Choice Mafia V: Enclosure in Shadow (Sign-ups closed)

Four years have passed since the very first “game” was played in this showhouse. Its history since then has been marked by short periods of peace and of murder. The fabled beast still lurks in the depths of the showhouse, though hasn’t made an appearance since the last games, where all but two songs fell prey to its insatiable appetite. That was, until they came.

They swept over the showhouse as night sweeps over the rolling countryside. The showhouse plunged into chaos once more as they breathed death upon its patrons. A chosen few songs were spared as part of his mercy. The Ruler of the Shadows, they called him. The Lord of the Fallen. The few that had survived those years of unrest knew his true name. He was Unfurl, the lonely shadow who was the lover of Hot Mess, the flaming mistress who took hold of the showhouse by force four years ago. His love for her had been his only connection with reality. Once this link had been severed, his lust for revenge had turned him into a madman.

Little is known about what happened to Be Prepared. Some say she was slain and sacrificed to the beast. Others say her death wouldn’t be enough for Unfurl, and she is kept under lock and key in the Chamber of the Beast, so that she can be tortured. Some believe she has been in hiding this whole time.

“To the few of you that have been chosen…” announces a voice that is angelically soft yet thunderously loud, “You have yet to prove yourself. If you manage to survive these games, perhaps, just perhaps, you may be good enough to join me in my purge…”

This would be the showhouse’s darkest hour.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For those of you who aren’t familiar with how the last few games worked, you will choose a song. Any song! I will then choose for you a role based on that song.

-48 hour phases. Extensions might be given if deemed necessary.
-No role limit, but a minimum of 13-14 players.
-There is no restriction on abstains.
-Out-of-thread communication is NOT allowed.
-Unlike the previous games, lyricless songs will be allowed. If your song has lyrics, you must link to them, or paste them into hide tags. YouTube links are optional.
-Be active! I will do inactive kills. If there's any reason you can't participate let me know ahead of time if you can.
-You cannot use a song that has been used in a previous Song Choice Mafia.

I have been waiting. I will chose a somewhat normal song this time. (normal for me at least)

Riot - Three Days Grace

If you feel so empty
So used up, so let down
If you feel so angry
So ripped off so stepped on
You're not the only one
Refusing to back down
You're not the only one
So get up

Let's start a riot, a riot
Let's start a riot
Let's start a riot, a riot
Let's start a riot

If you feel so filthy
So dirty so fucked up
If you feel so walked on
So painful so pissed off
You're not the only one
Refusing to go down
You're not the only one
So get up

Let's start a riot, a riot
Let's start a riot
Let's start a riot, a riot
Let's start a riot

If you feel so empty
So used up, so let down
If you feel so angry
Just get up

Let's start a riot, a riot
Let's start a riot
Let's start a riot, a riot
Let's start a riot

Usually I would pick a regular song to prove my normalcy despite being part of a pokemon forum but you know what, we might not get another chance to use a lyricless song.

This one.

Stabilo: Kidding Ourselves
And I, I wanted to tear down the curtains
To let, let in some natural light
I wake up and open one eye
And wait for the window to crack at me, alone

And I, I wanted to curl up beside you
And die, at least for an hour or more
Depending on how you react
Depending on how you respond to me
I'll stick around

We're kidding ourselves kidding ourselves
So what do you want from me
'Cause as long as there's a payphone and a taxi cab I'm alright 'cause I can leave home
We're kidding ourselves kidding ourselves
So what are you waiting for
'Cause even with a fast car and a cellphone I won't leave 'cause I'd be alone

So tonight, let's be as bold as we want to
And drink, drink 'til we fall down the steps
Remember how that made us laugh
Remember how all that we did was laugh, and cry

Well, we're kidding ourselves kidding ourselves
So what do you want from me
'Cause as long as there's a payphone and a taxi cab I'm alright 'cause I can leave home
We're kidding ourselves kidding ourselves
So what are you waiting for
'Cause even on a bullet train or a jet plane I won't leave 'cause I'd be alone
And I'm lucky to find cardboard in an alleyway that I can call home

So tonight, let's be as bold as we want to run, four eyes ohhh
We're kidding ourselves kidding ourselves
So what do you want from me
'Cause as long as there's a payphone and a taxi cab I'm alright 'cause I can leave home
We're kidding ourselves kidding ourselves
So what are you waiting for
'Cause even on a bullet train or a jet plane I won't leave 'cause I'd be alone
I'm lucky to find cardboard in an alleyway that I can call home
So don't take your eyes off me, don't look away
I won't be alone
At home

so, can sans lyrics and "nothing too bastardy", eh? well, then.

let's see, ah, let's go with surgam identidem. frustratingly difficult latin to deal with, eh ... mostly because short phrases without much context, but eh. ... it is such a pity, I suppose.

I must note, though, that it makes some sense to interpret it as "I get up habitually" if one entirely ignores context. that is just too amusing not to note.

... wait, kajiurago doesn't count as lyrics, does it.

Just so you know, this is all your fault.

Stars don't twinkle
The moon doesn't shine
Stars don't twinkle
The moon doesn't shine

Stars don't twinkle
The moon doesn't shine
Stars don't twinkle
The moon doesn't shine

Birds don't sing
The wind doesn't blow
To the pure body
To the perfect existence

Birds don't sing
The wind doesn't blow
To the pure body
To the perfect existence

I'm shivering with cold
I struggle against despair
