fanmix: pilgrim(s) [torchwood, suzie/gwen]
1. ...This has got to be the funniest thing I've seen all week.
2. Part two of the femslash-fanmixes. (Yes, I know.)
Pilgrim [Sarah Slean]
Pilgrim, where's your head at?
Are you paying the birds to sing?
But it won't work on the true path
Where the wretched are growing wings
...
Pilgrim, whatcha looking at me for?
My disaster has come and gone
It left me by the roadside
With my shadow and one more song

Black Dirt [Sea Wolf]
As the light fades from my eyes
I smile but don't know why
...
Here on the ground I lie
I cannot hear a sound as I die
It may be true that I lied,
Broke a promise that I tried
But my heart no longer beats
and when you kill you'll only leave
black dirt under your feet

Borrowed Time [A Fine Frenzy]
Counting stars and passing cars on the interstate
The end is near, I feel it dear, but I am not afraid
Step, step right over the line and onto borrowed time
When it's life, not waiting to die
[Download]
Headlock [Imogen Heap]
I've been walking, you've been hiding
And you look half dead half the time
Monitoring you, like machines do,
You've still got it, I'm just keeping an eye
So what, don't care, will not, the end
...
You know you're better than this
[Download]
Late Goodbye [Poets of the Fall]
Your breath, hot upon my cheek,
and we crossed, that line
You made me strong when I was feeling weak
and we crossed, that one time
Screaming stop signs, staring wild eyes,
keep on flashing, flashing by
And we keep driving into the night
It's a late goodbye, such a late goodbye
[Download]
Our Hell [Emily Haines & the Soft Skeleton]
First went wrong is hard to find
We're paralyzed, we apologize
Our hell is a good life
Last went wrong,
Where's my prize under the lights
Can we call it in?
We'll be on the road - can we stop?
...
What I thought was in is missing out
What I thought it was it isn't now
There's a pattern in the system
There's a bullet in the gun
That's why I tried to save you
But it can't be done
[Download]
Use Once and Destroy [Hole]
It's the emptiness that's all you have left
Too terrified of your frozen breath
It's a bitter mouth, it's buttered and knifed
It's the awful truth you fight for your life
...
I went down to rescue you
I went all the way down
Fill your hungry wretched life
Here they come, it's closing time
[Download]
Vertigo [Sarah Slean]
The heavens dropped a bag
Of red and white lights
Pearls that keep the highway bright
And it feels like being born,
Night driving,
The moon hangs a dangerous height
...
And I am full of love and consequence
Merciful, the sky of coal,
The beauty of the cars' electric light
The speed with which their destinies glow
[Download]
Gorecki [Lamb]
All I've known
All I've done
All I've felt was leading to this
I want to stay right here
'Till the end of time, 'till the earth stops turning
Gonna love you 'till the seas run dry
I've found the one I've waited for
[Download]
Love And War [Rilo Kiley]
All is fair and love and we're in love
Now that everybody's dead we can finally talk
Can vanity and happiness coexist?
All the lovers we've taken in direct view of the enemy
And we shift each other's body to accept the bullet
And continue the pleasure, it's the treasures of battle
It's only for the wounded, the purple-hearted
Why must you try to ruin my peace of mind
And they were only words and I never meant them
I never loved you, even in my weakness
You were fuel for the fire cannon fodder
[Download]
Ballad Of a Bitter End [The Poems]
If this is love
It hangs in doubt
It'll kill you or me
If we come out
But what a way to go
(Talk to me again,
Please talk to me again)

My Vampire Heart [Tom McRae]
Darling I'm lost,
Adrift in the dark
I'm clutching your words to my vampire heart,
Once more
So let in the light, turn me to dust
If it don't end in bloodshed, dear,
It's probably not love
[Download]
Rid Of Me [PJ Harvey]
Tie yourself to me
No one else
No, you're not rid of me
Hmm, you're not rid of me
Night and day I breathe
Yeah, you're not rid of me
Yeah, you're not rid of me
I'll make you lick my injuries
I'm gonna twist your head off, see

it's Torchwood, I'm sure it doesn't matter :P
That to me would suggest a bit of Suzie liking Gwen. But then, as you said, Gwen wasn't responsive. I'm getting this whole Suzie/Gwen vibe actually... I'll have to watch it again.
I don't mind Gwen so much, but Suzie scares me a bit.
I'm definitely gonna have to watch that again.
Murky... yes. *agrees*
no subject
Seriously, though, I think she was sort of responsive, or at least in the beginning. I'm sure it was part Gwen's overdeveloped optimist drive, and part Suzie's manipulation, but they had something going, there, in the beginning - which was when Gwen seemed to show her likingness of Suzie, you know, until good old Suz unplugged her father and informed Gwen that she was slowly being shot in the head. (And yes, she scares me too.) So, it's sort of like Gwen's "affection" came about in the nice times, and Suzie's in the not-so-nice.
...Yeah.
The murkiness was probably so sweet because it NEVER happens on Torchwood. It's the Show of Explaining. We get everyone's backstory (except Ianto), ten thousand alien "well, I didn't WANT to murder someone, but you know..." excuses, and a ton of bricks' worth of Jack-story. (Is he even that interesting anyway? I think not.)
no subject
There was a bit of a freaky thing going on from Suzie's side, I agree... I remember thinking that she could have had a bit of a weird crush thing on Gwen... Nice idea though.
"The Show of Explaining". I like that. It's very true. So much is answered when it was never really asked. And EVERYTHING needs a reason *sigh*
But we have had Ianto's backstory... In fragments? Jack-story is boring now. And I don't believe (read: want to believe) that he stayed underground for all that time... Yeah, right. Sounds more like "Oh, damn, let's find some evidence for the FOB story asap". FAIL.
c'mon Torchwood, where's the mystery? *sigh*

I have seen it before I came to comment though, and it 's very pretty :)
no subject
Personally, I hope they only touch Ianto with a ten-foot pole. Because I like him, I think he's a great character that does well with the understatement - if they just dropped a couple hints here and there, you know, that he has (or had, anyway) a life outside Torchwood, that would be fine. Or even if they addressed that he didn't. But I doubt he had some sort of dramatic/traumatic background, and I don't want to have to swallow the mess the writers would give us if they had to come up with one for him in their usual fashion. (And yes, we're looking at you, Tosh!story and Owen!story.) It's just the blatant... ignoring that annoys me.
