    This is Shigaraki's song! In the original TikTok, I had OFA singing it to him, but now I just like how echoey and choral is sounds!! I've gotten some comments on posts asking why I didn't make a "full version", but the thing is, this song is meant to be the length it is! It starts with them meeting, and ends with OFA bringing Shigaraki with him. Nice, concise, and creepy >: )

      Minor typo, I think you meant AFO not OFA. Amazing song btw!

    The choral give me the impression of the greek chorus in a tragedy

    This sounds like something they would show on Broadway in the future to show the villain's perspective and backstory. And, it's really beautiful, especially the, "We can watch the world decay." It just connects so much with the anime, like how AFO is trying to tell Shigaraki about his plans or how Shigaraki's quirk is Decay. I love that.

    Im now thinking of a reprise version with the same lyrics but instead it's shigaraki learning of ofa and of deku's past, realizing they were both cast away, and then trying to coax deku over by referencing the way the world turned on him and likening it to his own story, reminding him that "heroes won't help poor folks like you" and saying what AFO said to him word for word, because AFO taught him and that's all he's ever been taught.
    He's opening a place in his throne room for deku and deku alone because somewhere in his cursed wretched heart he still has empathy for those like him. He's extending an invitation for deku to rule the world beside him as opposed to against him, symbols of how the cast aside and forgotten aren't worthless and aren't useless. And deku is standing there, fearful, because shigaraki _knows_ and if shigaraki knows then he'll tell others and when the truth of his quirkless past comes out, would they still love him?
    And he realizes, that the fact that going back to being quirkless could change all his friend's perception of him, that he could be cast away again, he realizes shigaraki had a point. But he refuses to turn to villainy because his heart always wanted to be a hero, and he won't let shigaraki telling him words he never heard as a quirkless -an invitation with no malice, saying he's worth something without ulterior motives- change his heart.
    Maybe add a third reprise, deku's response, with lyrics riffing on shigaraki and AFO' words but changed slightly.
    Idk just an idea which came from this song. It's so cool. Like coffee for my writer's brain

      A possible Deku reprise:
      Child of Ashes and Child Without Home,
      We are two sides of one knife.
      Child of Broken Flesh and Bones,
      You can still choose what is right.
      Heroes might miss poor souls like us,
      Quirkless and covered in blood and dust,
      But heroes can learn, unchained from their ways,
      Just take my hand, here dawns a new day
      Break from the arms of he who knows
      That we long for a place,
      Safe, hand-in-hand, *together*, show
      We can end the world's decay.

    This and your other song burn go really well together! I've never watched/read my hero academia, so i don't know if the characters mesh well, but the theme of burning and ashes and hopelessness seem really intertwined, like this was the motive/thought process of the singer of burn.

    • @moondust-and-LunarGlitch
      @moondust-and-LunarGlitch Před rokem +3

      Ah yeah is you mean ‘Brother’ because that is the MHA song about burning then yes they do interact but they don’t really like each other because Dabi ‘fire’ calls his new boss Shigaraki’ashes’ ugly when they meet so that doesn’t go down well but they grow on each other but Shigaraki is more dust
