So, we've done the playlists. We've done the speculative soundtracks. We've rewritten the Disney anthems and the Broadway numbers. Hell, we've even done book titles.

But what if you could make a music video about any character, or any relationship (platonic or otherwise), in this 'verse? If you had an exact page-to-screen miniseries/television series recreation of all the books so far?

What music video(s) would you make, about whom, to what song?

I'll kick it off:

Augustus and Estelle, to "Save the Last Dance For Me". It just seems to fit.

I think Jeremy X, Saburo, and WEB du Havel may also like that one. With a small bit of help from a harem-pack-chorus of Amazons. :D

just before they ship out to marsh, in war of honour, the senior crew (Alistair, Alice, Rafe, Scotty, Harkness) hit the local karaoke bar and perform a stunning rendition of "The boys are back in town"

Honor performing Pat Benatar's Hit Me With Your Best Shot to Denver Summervale before she fills him full o' lead.

Pat Benatar – Hit Me With Your Best Shot Lyrics

Well you're a real tough cookie with a long history
Of breaking little hearts like the one in me
That's okay, let's see how you do it
Put up you dukes, let's get down to it

Hit me with your best shot
Why don't you hit me with your best shot
Hit me with your best shot
Fire away

You come on with it, come on
You don't fight fair
That's okay, see if I care
Knock me down, it's all in vain
I get right back on my feet again

Hit me with your best shot
Why don't you hit me with your best shot
Hit me with your best shot
Fire away

Well you're a real tough cookie with a long history
Of breaking little hearts like the one in me
Before I put another notch in my lipstick case
You better make sure you put me in my place

Hit me with your best shot
C'mon, hit me with your best shot
Hit me with your best shot
Fire away

Hit me with your best shot
Why don't you hit me with your best shot
Hit me with your best shot
Fire away

It is so apropos!

Son, your mother says I have to hang you. Personally I don't think this is a capital offense. But if I don't hang you, she's gonna hang me and frankly, I'm not the one in trouble. —cthia's father. Incident in ? Axiom of Common Sense

Given that it was the bodyguard she was singing to/about, maybe in memory of Andrew La Follet, after all she did love him as well.
