150 - Unlaced: A Mai Kujaku FST
lovehiei13 requested any Yu-Gi-Oh FST over at fst. Mai Kujaku has always been my favorite characters, and I adore the complexity of her character.
+Gasoline ~ Seether
Last night I saw that beauty queen
Watched her paint her face on
I wanna be that magazine
That she bases life on
Selfish queen bitch. That’s what Mai is the instant you see her on Duelist Ship.
+Fergalicious ~ Fergie
Fergalicious definition make them boys go loco
They want my treasure so they get their pleasures from my photo.
You could see me, you can't squeeze me.
I ain't easy, I ain't sleazy.
I got reasons why I tease 'em.
Boys just come and go like seasons.
Fergalicious (so delicious)
But I ain't promiscuous.
And if you was suspicious,
All that shit is fictitious.
I blow kisses (mmmwwahhh)
I put them boys on rock, rock.
And they be lining down the block just to watch what I got (four, tres, two, uno)
Mai uses her body and her looks to get whatever she wants, such as stealing the room on the ship from Ryuuzaki, even if she really isn’t a slut at all.
+Desert Rose ~ Sting
Sweet desert rose
Each of her veils, a secret promise
This desert flower
No sweet perfume ever tortured me more than this
Sweet desert rose
This memory of Eden haunts us all
This desert flower
This rare perfume, is the sweet intoxication of the fall
Yuugi is one of the first people to notice that Mai isn’t what she appears to be, and soon, Katsuya catches on [This is also not a pun relating to how she used perfume to allow her to be ‘psychic’, not at all].
+Bitch ~ Meredith Brooks
I hate the world today
You're so good to me
I know but I can't change
Tried to tell you
But you look at me like maybe
I'm an angel underneath
Innocent and sweet
Yesterday I cried
Must have been relieved to see
The softer side
I can understand how you'd be so confused
I don't envy you
I'm a little bit of everything
All rolled into one
The group almost seems relieve when they start seeing the softer side of Mai, but she calmly replies that she really isn’t a good person, despite helping to win Yuugi’s star chips back and giving Katsuya the entrance card when Bandit Keith stole his.
+Miss Independent ~ Kelly Clarkson
Miss on her own
Miss almost grown
Miss never let a man help her off her throne
So, by keeping her heart protected
She'll never, ever feel rejected
Little miss apprehensive
Said ooh, she fell in love
Well…she didn’t exactly fall in love. However, these ‘stupid highschoolers’ did open her eyes up to the fact that she really did need friends, as much as she wanted to be alone and independent.
+Moi Lolita ~ Alizée
Me, I'm called Lolita
Quick-tempered and not
Half-cotton, half-wool
Silent and a mouth that doesn't tell
Mum that I
Am a phenomenon
I'm called Lolita
Lo for spirit, Lo for diluvial love
Somehow, I always imagine Mai as a French girl, or someone interested in the French. Even when the millionaire wants to marry her for her looks, she stands her ground and proves that she’s not just some porcelain doll.
+Chambermaid ~ Emilie Autumn
I'm not your chambermaid
You're not my lord
All the fine games we played
Have left me bored
I never want to see you come around my castle
'Cause I just can't afford to love you
I'm not your chambermaid
You're not my lord
However, Mai realizes that she’s opening up too much to these kids. They’re holding her back from being a true duelist, especially Katsuya. Or so she thinks.
+How Soon Is Now? ~ .t.a.T.u.
You shut your mouth
How can you say
I go about things the wrong way?
I am human and I need to be loved
Just like everybody else does
Mai protests that she doesn’t need help from anyone, even if everyone is telling her she’s going about everything the wrong way in her duel against Malik’s split personality.
+Pretty Girl (The Way) ~ Sugarcult
She's beautiful as usual with bruises on her ego and
Her killer instinct tells her to beware of evil men
And that's what you get for falling again
You can never get 'em out of your head
And that's what you get for falling again
You can never get 'em out of your head
While this song relates more to Katsuya in my mind, this really does reflect how she realizes how much she needs these people when Malik starts to take away her memories of her friends.
+No Fear ~ The Rasmus
Girl,
You lived your live like a sleeping swan
Your time has come
To go deeper
Girl
Your final journey's just begun
Your destiny chose the reaper
No fear
Destination Darkness
No fear
Destination Darkness
No fear
Mai lost. The other Malik banishes her to an hour glass, and if she isn’t freed within a certain time limit, she will die.
+Nobody’s Home ~ Avril Lavigne
Be strong, be strong now.
Too many, too many problems.
Don't know where she belongs, where she belongs.
She wants to go home, but nobody's home.
That's where she lies, broken inside.
With no place to go, no place to go, to dry her eyes.
Broken inside.
Thankfully, they do save her. However, the dreams of her mind rape continually haunt her, and she slowly starts to shut herself down.
+Nobody Knows ~ Pink
Nobody knows
Nobody knows but me
That I sometimes cry
If I could pretend that I'm asleep
When my tears start to fall
I peek out from behind these walls
I think nobody knows
Nobody knows no
People start talking to her behind her back - how she’s not as strong as a duelist anymore, how it seems that she’s lost her drive. None of them know better than she the meaning of an empty win.
+I Guess It Doesn’t Matter Anymore ~ Blackmore’s Night
Standing in the rain, the cold and angry rain
In a long white dress, a girl without a name
She stood beneath the light, glowing like a candle bright
I guess it doesn’t matter anymore
I pulled along the side, and offered her a ride
Like the rolling mis she floated inside
As we pulled away, she had nothing to say
So I guess it doesn’t matter anymore
And then - salvation. Varon, a member of the Doom Organization, passes by the broken girl in the rain…and offers her a chance to be strong.
+Let The Record Show ~ Emilie Autumn
If I'm going down
Then I'm doing down good
If I'm going down
Then I'm going down clean
If I'm going down
Then I'm going down the prettiest broken girl you've ever seen
If I'm going down
Then I'm going down good
If I'm going down
Then I'm going down clean
If I'm going down
Then I'm going the prettiest wretched whore you've ever seen
While I breathe
I've got no evidence to prove my end
And so you'll walk away?
Nope, wrong again
So let the record show
That you murdered me
In your coldest blood
With your own two hands
Don't think no one understands
It happens every day
Due to Doma’s influence, Mai starts to believe that everything that happened to her was Yuugi’s group fault…especially Katsuya.
+Lucifer’s Angel ~ The Rasmus
Behind those eyes lies the truth and grief
Behind those beautiful smiles, I've seen tragedy
The flawless skin hides the secrets within
The silent forces that secretly ignite your sins
Fly away
Fly away
From the torch of blame
They hunt you
The Lucifer's Angel
It’s no surprise that Varon falls for the mysterious, closed off girl.
+Frozen ~ Madonna
You're so consumed with how much you get
You waste your time with hate and regret
You're broken
When your heart's not open
Mmmmmm, if I could melt your heart
Mmmmmm, we'd never be apart
Mmmmmm, give yourself to me
Mmmmmm, you hold the key
Both Katsuya and Varon love Mai deeply…but only one can manage to break through to her heart.
+Gomennasai ~ .t.a.T.u.
What I thought was a dream
A mirage
Was as real as it seemed
A privilege
When I wanted to tell you
I made a mistake
I walked away
Gomennasai, for everything
Gomennasai, Gomennasai,
I never needed a friend,
Like I do now
It isn’t until her best friend is lying soulless in her arms does Mai realize the extent of the damage she had done.
+Everything ~ Alanis Morisette
I can be an asshole of the grandest kind
I can with hold like it's going out of style
I can be the moodiest baby
And you've never met anyone
As negative as I am sometimes
I am the wisest woman you've ever met
I'm the kindest soul with whom you've connected
I have the bravest heart that you've ever seen
And you've never met anyone
As positive as I am sometimes
I blame everyone else, not my own partaking
My passive aggressiveness can be devastating
I'm terrified and mistrusting
And you've never met anyone who's closed down as I am sometimes
I am the funniest woman that you've ever known
I am the dullest woman that you've ever known
I am the most gorgeous woman that you've ever known
And you've never met anyone as everything as I am sometimes
Mai really is a little bit of everything.
+Unlaced ~ Emilie Autumn
[Instrumental]
This instrumental theme is dark, layered, and somehow reminds me of the different sides of this ‘material girl’.
