*SEMI-SPOILERY*
The fiction I chose was a crossover between Panic (and some other bandom) and the classic Little Mermaid story (with a not-so-terrible ending). The fix was longer than the 10,000-word requirement, so I felt justified in going over the 5-song requirement. This fix gave me a lot of feels, and I really wanted to represent them all in my mix. I have a few love songs, marking what I thought the type of attraction Brendon fell into. I tried to find songs that had water and music themes, as that was what the story branched off of. Into the Ocean fell pretty well in the beginning of the mix, when Brendon longed to be on land, but couldn’t figure a way to get there. Florence + the Machine was one of the artists my writer said they listened to while writing, so I looked for a song that fit. I think What the Water Gave Me showed some of the hurt Brendon felt when he realized the gift the Sea Witch gave him wouldn’t be used. The Lethal Temptress showed that consideration he felt when Brendon realized there was a way to get back home. The Civil Wars was another one cited when I asked my writer what they thought would be good in the mix. Kingdom Come is the only one I have from them, but I think it worked well during the time when Brendon was on the road, looking for a new home. In the Songs is the final track I chose, because it raps up the mix nicely. People are happy with their loved ones and enjoying their time on land. Brendon can use his beautiful voice again, and not to much was lost on the way to a happy ending :)
