ᴛᴜᴇsᴅᴀʏ - Ships is done! :'D You might recognize the part where Ceto assures Wylie that she will return. I took it straight from the first Tidecaller one-shot. Mᴏᴏɴ - - Dingoleap mintedstar/fur phantomstar57

:'D
I missed a coding thing and I corrected two errors. I kept putting Amaltheia instead of Amatheia. x'D

Aww. "Ships" was a bit heartbreaking, but at the same time, I adored how Wylie and Ceto reassured themselves and each other that they'd be together again.

Yeah. <3 It was a way to show a few things, like the fact that Ceto's aunt was the previous Tidecaller. Little facts that will drive the plot going forward. And yes, Wylie and Ceto have a very special bond. It will continue to hold even after they are apart for nearly 3 years.

"Cry Wolf" by Ghost Atlas
I walk along the edge And flirt with how deep I can go Before I lose control
Maybe I'm backing down Maybe I'll turn it around But my head It keeps spinning
I've let instinct take a dive And not resurface
I believe the dead won't remain the cold Bury me with souls lost in vacant bones Is this as far as I can go? (lead us home) Bury me with souls lost in vacant bones
Pushing that line Of how far my body can go Let the demon take its toll
Maybe I'm clocking out Maybe I'll figure it out But the room It keeps spinning
I don't think my mind survived My spirit took a dive
I believe the dead won't remain the cold Bury me with souls lost in vacant bones Is this as far as I can go? (lead us home) Bury me with souls lost in vacant bones
How far can I go? I believe the dead won't remain the cold Bury me with souls lost in vacant bones Is this as far as I can go? (lead us home) Bury me with souls lost in vacant bones

Removed two songs. They don't fit anymore. x'D
Adding "Waters Rising" by Alter Bridge. Feels like a water bearer song. Also adding the WONDER woman theme by Hans Zimmer & Junkie XL

Powerful song by Zack Hemsey called "The Way".
Some have said that I was given keys to the city of your dreams I'm more content to walk outside the walls and catch a breeze I'm more inclined to climb on by or ride internal seas I'm more alive to vibe inside a mansion full of trees I do this for a reason that they can't pretend to glean I lose myself infused in something more than what they've seen I'm not a slave to greed I don't embrace your make believe I've never been for sale no matter what they think I need So let it be decreed Let this music serve the deed Let it spread like a disease Let it spawn a noble seed There's more than meets the eye There's more than meets the price If you can't see the sky there's too much artificial light I can't predict my path, but they can't fully see my past I'm running from the flash but heading straight inside the blast A mountain full of ego built upon a heap of trash Is exactly what you get when you can't fully do the math

» ѕнαdσω ⚔️ ;; Shadow! I've got another song that I think fit "Ships". Maybe a bit too well, lol. It's called "Ocean Eyes"; it really brings out the emotional ending of the one-shot and the teary gaze Ceto and Wylie held when she left with the Waterbearer to train.
Edit: I've got some more - How Far I'll Go, Between The Devil And The Deep Blue Sea, and High Tide. (I didn't pick them because they've got ocean themes, but I kinda did on purpose ahaha ;u;)

Ok I'm adding Ocean Eyes to the track, along with Between the Devil and the Deep Blue sea (this one fits REALLY well with my plot...so good <3)

» ѕнαdσω ⚔️ ;; Awesome! I actually came up with analyses of these songs, lol.
☆ "Ocean Eyes" is pretty explanatory. Wylie’s eyes are described as "a beautiful shimmering blue", which alludes to the various shades of blue that are his eyes. But as I've said, it ties in with "Ships", specifically the ending. The lyrics - "No fair / You really know how to make me cry / When you gimme those ocean eyes / I'm scared / I've never fallen from quite this high / Falling into your ocean eyes / Those ocean eyes" - fully touch on the tears that were shed by the Tribe, including Wylie's and Ceto's specifically. The lyrics imply that Wylie's bright blue hues, his ocean eyes, made her cry in turn. She's nervous and scared, not knowing what awaits her in Ibai's sessions, but what she does know is that she has a responsibility to uphold, as the next Tidecaller of her cats.
☆ Next, "High Tide". This one was just..."eh" compared to the others. These lines - "When the waves and sand collide / I will be there every time / Let me be your high tide / Just like the water / I come rushing back every time" - stuck out to me. If it was a softer song, it seems like it's Amatheia reassuring her daughter that she'll be with her always. She knows Ceto is "helpless" and "weightless", but like the tide, she'll come rushing back no matter what.
☆ "How Far I'll Go". Now, know that I didn't pick this song just because it's from Moana. I simply felt like it fit Ceto personally. But now that I'm thinking about it, it surprisingly doesn't really fit The Tidecaller that well. It fits, but... at the same time it doesn't. As much as I love this movie and this song, both versions are simply too upbeat, "pop-ish", and lighthearted for the story, I think. Secondly, Ceto is attracted to the ocean, yes (Especially with - See the line where the sky meets the sea? / It calls me! / And no one knows how far it goes). But she doesn't want to get away from her home, you know? She seems content there, and this is more of an "I Want" song bent on exploration of the ocean.
☆ Now, "Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea". The phrase "between the devil and the deep (blue) sea" means "to be caught in a dilemma". In this song, I believe Ceto has grown older, and she has a few dilemmas of her own. This line - "And the tide it takes me away from you / and it brings me back again" - is talking about her recruitment. In this case, the "tide" is Ibai. The "you" is Wylie and her Tribe included. The second part is more or less her recalling the memories of her kin. She's been in the caves for as long as she could remember; when is the last time she saw the faces of her tribe? According to XYLØ, this song is "about someone facing an impossible decision. Either make a deal with the devil, or risk drowning." So, knowing this, it seems to be about Ceto being torn away from her Tribe, her mother, her best friend, and having to make the decision of rising to become the new Tidecaller or gamble with the possibility of "drowning" when she goes up against the Water God and his rage. It's an impossible decision, because she's supposed to be the new Tidecaller, and the Water God is a force of nature that will take a master of the tide to fully tame.
Ahh, sorry, I rambled there! But I'm sure you get it by now, haha. ^^;;
Can't wait till TTC (The Tidecaller) becomes it's own separate story!

Haha, I can't wait to show you more. I've got quite a plot all planned out and set up!!
I agree with the Moana song. It does and doesn't fit. Ceto isn't so much a wanderer. She's grounded where she is.
