star trek - amanda/sarek - strange and beautiful
strange and beautiful, [amanda+sarek]
a mini-mix for the lovers.
oo1. strange and beautiful.
aqualung
[i've been watching your world from afar. i've been trying to be where you are.
and i've been secretly falling apart, unseen. to me, you're strange and you're beautiful,
you'd be so perfect with me, but you just can't see. i'll put a spell on you, you'll fall asleep.
when you wake, i'll be the first thing you'll see and you'll realize that you love me.]

oo2. oh you are the roots that sleep beneath my feet and hold the earth in place.
bright eyes
[i met you through a common friend, and though i didn't know it then, i was soon finding out
you are the roots that sleep beneath my feet and hold the earth in place. there was this book
i read and loved, the story of a ship who sailed around the world and found that nothing else
exists beyond its own two sails. we clutch and grasp and debate what's truly permanent,
but when the wind starts to shift there's no argument. so when i'm suffering through some awful
drive you occasionally cross my mind]

oo3. come on come out.
a fine frenzy
[come on, come out, the weather is warm. a spot in the shade where oranges fall, a spot
in the shade away from it all. a blanket unfolds, a blanket to lie, and now we're alone
and now we're alive. the rush and the waiting, shifting and shaping.]

oo4. across the universe.
rufus wainwright
[pools of sorrow, waves of joy are drifting through my opened mind, possessing and
caressing me. images of broken light which dance before me like a million eyes, that
call me on and on across the universe. sounds of laughter, shades of earth, are ringing
through my open mind, inciting and inviting me. limitless undying love which shines around me
like a million suns, and calls me across the universe.]

oo5. starlight.
muse
[far away, this ship is taking me far away, far away from the memories of the people
who care if i live or die. starlight, i will be chasing a starlight until the end
of my life. you electrify my life, let's conspire to ignite. i'll never let you go.
i just wanted to hold you in my arms. i just wanted to hold you in my arms.]

oo6. brand new colony.
the postal service
[i'll be the fire escape that's bolted to the ancient brick where you will sit
and contemplate your day. i'll be the waterwings that save you if you start drowning
in an open tab when your judgement's on the brink. i want to take you far away from
the cynics in this town and kiss you on the mouth. we'll cut our bodies free from
the tethers of this scene, start a brand new colony. the sun will heat the ground,
under our bare feet, in this brand new colony.]

or individual tracks
[masterlist of mixes]
a/n: one of my favorite star trek canon pairings. i feel like they must have such a fascinating backstory -- how this unlikely pair of people who literally come from different planets ended up together, and how amanda decided to leave her entire world behind in order to stay with the man she loved. it's the kind of sappy romance that i love! (even if it's not so outwardly expressed, it's the actions that count;;) aside about the mix: 'across the universe's lyrics really makes me think of a mindmeld.
