I am constantly editing/changing these, most of them aren't really in a coherent order yet and some of them are currently ridiculously short because I haven't really found the right niche of songs for their dynamic yet, but here you go ^.^ (also I will be making and linking a masterpost for each one explaining why I chose all the songs, but if anyone ever has any song recommendations or wants to know about a specific song that's already on there, feel free to send me an ask!)
Darling, Dearest, Dead : a Lemony/Beatrice fanmix (8tracks) (Playmoss)
Wildest Wind - IAMX // Dear True Love - Sleeping At Last // Falling - Florence + The Machine // Chasing All The Stars - Fleurie // You Were A Kindness - The National // Wish That You Were Here - Florence + The Machine // The Other Side - Ruelle // Baltimore’s Fireflies - Woodkid
She accepts as a natural phenomenon the ways of this visitor, who comes and goes, who exists, talks, laughs with her, stops talking, listens to her, then disappears.
i love this one tiny flashback where beatrice gets !!!actual dialogue!!! and just wanted to say a couple of things about it -
she, too, calls lemony “mr. snicket.”
okay. so. this is a party at her house, which has already started, and she’s hanging out with lemony in her bedroom.
despite this, she actually seems to be a people person!
despite this, i’m... not sure she knows how to talk to people outside of vfd.
can you picture beatrice starting over with a new social set while distancing herself from vfd, desperately trying to figure out what normal people talk about. not codes, not spying... poison??? arson???
since you mentioned it, could we please have one from your lemony/beatrice playlist? 👀
YES!!
Love At First Sight by The Brobecks is the absolute pinnacle of Young Lemonbea, but ALSO Tongues & Teeth by The Crane Wives
Because I do absolutely see that as Beatrice singing to Lemony (though perhaps that says more about how I headcanon Beatrice than her actual canon character). There are a lot of other songs I could have said and it was very close, but I think these two best illustrate how I see their relationship
Oh man theyre all sooo good....9 with lemony/beatrice?

@drearydrearydreary: i was surprised when u said the party was at beatrice's house and i was like 'why did that surprise me' and i realized that for YEARS i just ASSUMED that the party was at R's and the room was like a reserved-for-beatrice guest room WHY DID I THINK THAT OMG
but also this is an excellent post and an excellent scene and i Love the concept of beatrice and lemony hanging out during an active party at her house in the night's Designated Social Anxiety Calmdown Room eatin fruit
MEANWHILE, it never occurred to me that this could have been taking place anywhere but beatrice’s house, even though your explanation makes a lot more sense on a level of like, normal behavior. beatrice go greet your guests and stop hanging out with your boyfriend. but this mental image is so sweet, and i love any glimpse of this relationship as... a functional thing that actually worked, despite how bizarre both they and their circumstances are! i love that beatrice thinks that parties are for intel gathering! i love their off-kilter ideas of how social interaction goes!
i know it’s a cliche at this point to set your ship to honeybee but if it’s not the lemonbea anthem i don’t know what is. like “you didn’t have to offer your hand/but since i kissed it i am at your command” “hello goodbye t’was nice to know you/how i find myself without you/that i’ll never know”
