I AM SO SORRY FOR THE LATENESS.
I'm doing NaNoWriMo, and I have two different stories I'm trying to write, but neither of them are up to the word count and I don't know which one I want to do more and ;A;
Anyways, this time, song ten is "Serenade for the Requited Lovers", which is a combination of Nepeta's "Serenade" and the Disciple's "Requited". The lyrics I made are a duet for the two, kind of like they're having a conversation.
Warning for sadstuck, unrequited KarNep, and overall feels.
Enjoy!
(Spoken monologue)
:33 I...I know what you've been through, Miss Disciple...and, well, it's hard...living alone...I know! I'm dead, my moirail's dead, the troll I want to call my matesprit pities somebody else...and, well...please, Disciple, please listen to me!
Nepeta:
Disciple, can you hear me?
The future, what will it be?
Disciple:
The gears of time are not set
I don't know the answer yet
Nepeta (Disciple in the background):
Disciple, I am listening (You must stay strong, my olive dear; loss is the only thing you fear)
It hurts to love so deeply (Don't be afraid to let it show; true love, I'm sure you will soon know)
Nepeta:
But then again, what do I know
I love but don't want to let go
Is there anything I can do?
Please tell me, I rely on you
Disciple:
Just believe -
Disciple: (Nepeta's repeating in background)
Sometimes it's not meant to be
But carry on and you'll see
Both:
We'll believe
Disciple (Nepeta singing the same, change pronouns):
There's someone there meant for you (me)
Don't lose hope, your (my) heart guides you (me)
Nepeta:
Disciple, can you hear me
My past, was it lit brightly?
Disciple:
I know that you were how you are
Brightly shining, just like a star
But that is past, and past apart
This life of yours is a new start
Nepeta:
Your words, they're true, I know that now
But still I question, ever how
Though I live with this fate I sealed
I still wish that this is not real
Disciple:
Calm down, my child, listen to me
Although we differ greatly
I know your heart as well as mine
And a happy ending you'll find
Both:
You are not me, and I'm not you
But we're still the same, through and through
We fight for those we'll always love
Nepeta:
To find our strength-
Disciple:
Rise above...
Disciple (Nepeta):
Nepeta, listen to me (The courage I hold can't be real; how I am is not how I feel)
You don't see your own beauty (Though I live with this fate I sealed; I still wish that this is not real)
Just believe -
Nepeta:
Disciple, now I can see
Though the future's still cloudy
I'll still believe in my heart
This world is my brand new start
Both:
I thank you, (darling) (mentor) of mine
Without you, I could not shine
