dick/liana and scott/ali + explain the tag
Otp: you taught me what a life is for
This comes from the title song Light me up. My thought process was that both of them have been living sort of half-lives up until the point they meet and then they finally realize how much of life they have been missing due to their own seclusion.
They teach each other to live
Otp: I just wanna be somebody to you
This one is more of an afterthought, but it comes from the song Someone to You by the Banners. It reminds me SO much of their relationship and gets to the core of their feelings for each other.
They wanna feel a part of something. But they wanna feel like that with the other person. Liana and Dick may not care about others’ opinions, but they do care about each other’s.
Otp: never fall in love with a dead man
This is actually ripped straight from season 6 when Peter tells Malia not to fall in love with Scott. That conversation happens but with Ali instead. It also shows up the prologue of RWW as the final line.
...told her to never fall in love with a dead man. Too late.
Otp: he sings for the love of a girl
This comes from Hadestown and it’s a line between Hades and Persephone as the latter is trying to convince him to give Orpheus a chance.
Hades and Persephone have the same dynamic as Ali and Scott (although the roles switch every now and then) so it was only natural I chose a song that explored that dynamic.
send me a ship and I’ll explain their otp tag!
