fandomhigh | Life Soundtrack, Period 3

Hey, there was music playing for class when they showed up again. Because why ruin a good thing?

"This past weekend, trauma, blah blah blah, we're all very sad about things. But the important question really is: who the hell actually goes to their high school reunions?" A beat. "Me. I would go just to win that motherfucker with my smoking hot, amazing girlfriend and these only slightly horrific superpowers. If I'd actually graduated. Awkward coming from the teacher. Anywhoooo. Today is all about music for fight scenes."

If the DMX wasn't enough of a hint.

"We already bought the rights for this song for the soundtrack so." He gave the class a thumbs up. "You could pick something edgy and so early two thousand with techno, or maybe you're more into some dissonance with a cheerful song. Oh, oh! Or maybe you want to be edgy and pick something classical and sad all John Woo style with doves constantly flying through the scene. Seriously, who thought doves were a good choice? They're just prettier pigeons. Which, in turn, makes them the kind of rats with wings that would be in a beauty pageant."

That took a strange turn.

"Kinda did. But pageants are run by people like Trump. Yep, I'm gettin' political despite not even being an American citizen. Canada won with our dreamy, hockey elbowing PM. Deal with it."

Yeah, he was already on his phone to pull up a new song. This had gone off the rails a bit. But that was followed by, "Yikes, I overestimated how patriotic I am." And it was cut off again. Thank god.

"Fight song. Do it. And so help me, if any of you pick Reba McEntire, I will fail you. That TV show was an abomination."

This is your fight song.

Ahsoka Tano

Xanthippe Voorhees

Mabel Pines

Mara Jade

I don't know more of that song's lyrics tbh.

Do iiiiiit.

"Bonnie Tyler!" Mabel threw her arms into the air jubilantly. Clearly she'd been thinking of this. "I Need A Hero! (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OBwS66EBUcY)"

Okay, the lyrics maybe didn't fit the whole 'fight song' thing, but nobody could tell her that it wasn't a great song to kick butt to.

"I'll allow it despite being more training montage material."

THIS TIME.

Mabel considered that one carefully for a moment, and then shook her head. "My training montage would be Runaway. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ySWVxTNUu0c)"

Because Bon Jovi.

It was possible she was not actually aware of the most likely context of those lyrics. Maybe that was for the best.

"Well, Bon Jovi is always a given," Deadpool admitted. "That's like picking Eye of the Tiger. God, I love that song."

"Isn't it great? BOM! BAH BAH BOM! BAH BAH BOM! BAH BAH BOOOOOW!"

Yeah. Yeah, she was basically just going to sing the opening guitar riffs, now. So that was a thing that was happening.

It was okay, she was the TA. She was allowed to do many things that would get other students kicked out.

Because a little unfairness built character.

"Oh my god, you are just the most precious thing on this island."

"It's a gift," Mabel replied, beaming.

She was so super modest.

I remembered this time.

"Hey, we only forgot because of Lemonade," Deadpool insisted wrongly.

Mabel was so here! Look at her being here! And basically grooving out to the soundtrack that was playing in her own head.

It's okay, Wade. She understood how distracting Lemonade could be.

I hope everyone picks Reba.
