OOC - Fanfic Meme - Day 25

[watchmakersylar]

25 – Music – Do you listen to music while you write? Do you make playlists to get into a certain "mood" to write your fic? Do you need noise in general? Or do you need it completely quiet?

God yes I need music. I think it came from having headphones on all the time at my previous jobs. I did it to block out the noises of the people around me, and more than a few times I pretended I couldn’t hear them when they came to bother me about something. I worked with enough escapees from the Tar Pits that they honestly thought I couldn’t hear them.

My original characters each have their own playlists and bands as do my muses. Peter seems to like Shinedown and 3 Doors Down. Gabriel likes Stain’d and Creed. Sylar’s tastes are considerably darker.

Since I’ve actually put together Sylar’s playlist in the past, here it is for your listening pleasure:

This playlist is woefully out of date too. I really need to add some more stuff to it. Glad you like my choices.

I miss when MTV = MUSIC.

Yes, muchly. I quit watching MTV and VH1 for much the same reason I quit listening to the radio - too many advertisements, too little music.

Though I've heard one of the music TV channels is trying to regain their audience by having ::gasp!:: actual music videos as a primary programming element again.

I'm playing the list now and ... yeah, that's Sylar (as you write him - wouldn't work at all for various other folk's characterizations of him but I really like your characterization of him, so that's all good).
