haha oh lord i’m just gonna upload this before i get too embarrassed and give up entirely, this is sUPER sloppy and bad timing and just AGH!! but i think it’s better if i record it sloppy rather than not at all so….

Um, okay, well. This is a song I wrote a few weeks ago called “From the Monster, With Love”. It’s a tribute to waffleguppies’ beautiful Portal fanfic, Blue Sky, which you can read here or here. It’s possibly one of the best fanfics I’ve ever read, and the ending gave me so many feelings that I just had to do something with all those feelings! So I poured them into a song. I haven’t played the guitar since I was really little, so I’ve gotten awful at it (and like I’ve said before, I don’t know a darned thing about making music), but I had a lot of fun making this anyway. Waffleguppies and marshtwain are amazing people, so here’s to the lovely thing they created. ( ´・ω・`)ノ♥

I think if you’ve read the story, the lyrics and whose perspective it’s from should be pretty obvious. I also tried to do as many chapter title namedrops as I could lol, I didn’t integrate them all of course. Uh um uh I think that’s everything I wanted to say, okay

okay

mp3 and lyrics here

rolls underneath bed and curls into a pile of embarrassment
i might do a refined version someday because this is seriously a mess…
