Need

I'm not great at associating music with characters but I can generally get other peoples' picks and that's fun!

There's an official filk song about Need which is about her origins and purpose but doesn't touch on the more reserved and contemplative side of her which is a lot more prominent in-game.

(there's also Blade of Desire but it's more about sleeping-Need and a bearer and applies even less lol.)

so let's a poem or two.

Louise Glück "Lamium"
The sun hardly touches me.
Sometimes I see it in early spring, rising very far away.
Then leaves grow over it, completely hiding it. I feel it
glinting through the leaves, erratic,
like someone hitting the side of a glass with a metal spoon.


Joy Sullivan "Horse girl" which apparently I can only find here anymore
I've always been afraid to admit I love horses. Growing up, I
worried I'd be labeled a
horse girl. More than just being kind
of weird, I knew that
horse girl meant something worse. It
meant that you loved too much. That you loved wrong.
