Hi hello! I'm here now too XD
In case my user didn't tell you who I was, I'm that reader who has been spamming your comments recently.
Completely off topic to anything that is happening on the blog (I didn't start catching up yet), do you think this song somewhat fits Daz's universe to an extent?

Ooh, yes, very Daz-coded! Also adding it to my folder of songs to grab.
And yeah, you have the same name both places! I figured it was you. I was kinda surprised to see you send something here bc you're not through SwSh&B yet, but sending a song makes sense haha!
I've had this done for about a week and have struggled to do a writeup (or even choose) the top ten most Day songs, so...fuck it, here's the link for just the playlist.
As of the writing of this, Day and Daz's full playlists are both at 811 songs. This is of course fucking insane to put onto youtube one by one, hence why this is a heavily culled selection.
Daz's playlist went down to 284. Day's went down to 321.
You might notice one of those is significantly bigger than the other! That's partly because some of the songs I cut from Daz's playlist were cut specifically for being a lil weird-- usually in the context of those songs being about sex or romance. They weren't used that way for him, but it still made me uneasy to throw those into the mix.
Day, by contrast, has a lot less of that kind of thing. There's definitely significant overlap between him and Daz (both musically and as characters), but much less of the sorta angry break up song type deals.
These two are hands down the biggest playlists I have. I have full branch AUs, with multiple characters, that have a fraction as many songs. Inn/Creepypasta has 378 unique songs, for instance!
I think the next playlist I do might be Perce, because he's rapidly grown on me. Lil nerdy menace has a lot of competition-y songs that are fun. His full playlist is 344 songs. Aster is 544 and Theo is 384, though I do want to do them eventually.
(Vio is 192, Lee is 61-- too many depressing/emo songs that vibe not at ALL with the sunshine boi.)
Oh right and I also threw this together. It might seem a little familiar, and there's a reason for that. :)
This playlist is unique because I can't tell you who it's for.
...Well, that's technically not true. I just don't want to, because I want to play riddlemaster and have people try to figure it out.
The character linked to this playlist is the one who I've been not-so-subtly alluding to. They're very important!
(And, no; they're not the Scribe.)
Unlike Innit's playlist, this one has nearly every song my version does. There were a few instances of duplicate songs, so those got cut.
I'll explain a little more about the ways a song can be linked to a character under the cut. If you don't want to guess, then, ehh...I guess have a playlist of good songs?
Songs might be literal, metaphorical, directly about, and/or how the character in question feels about a different character. On top of that, it could be at any point in that character's story. Thus, the meaning can be wildly different between characters. For instance, "creature" by half-alive shows up in Innit, Aver, and Day's playlists. (At least, the full ones.)
So, for Innit, that song is a combination of how it felt about Dream and to some extent Daz/Tommy for most of Blood & Gold. Dream was the one who gave it the final push to form; Dream is the one who freed it from its cage. Daz/Tommy was the one who (unintentionally) gave it a shape-- sculpted it, in a sense. Like clay.
Later on, the meaning shifts to be bitter and vengeful. It is made from Daz, after all-- and it will use those cruel lessons like knives to It kept those cruel lessons close, fired them in the kiln of its hatred for years.
For Aver, it's how he feels about the not-family + his general place in life and how Toma feels about him. He's learned a lot and knows he has both personal power and the backing of powerful people who genuinely care about him. If he stumbles, there will be people to catch him. If he falls, they'll hold out their hands to help him back up.
For Day, it's a two-way thing; it's how he feels about his sons and how they feel about him. In a way, he had to re-learn how to be human when he met them. He had almost lost the will to keep going...and then Theo grabbed his sleeve and told him that he needed to come back. They took his worn clay and gave him a purpose again.
(Fun fact; this is one of Day's most fitting songs. I've gone into depth about how basically every line works for him with a friend.)
His sons' perspective is more obvious. He's been their teach and protector. Theo, Dee, Orph, and Atlas actually gave him a name to fit with their new ones; Aether. The primordial of light, because he was-- and remains-- their beacon of hope.
(Additional fun fact; Day was too attached to DayDream, but he still considers it a part of his name. His sons gave it to him, and he'll be damned if he gets rid of something so precious.)
So...the meaning of a song can vary a hell of a lot even for a single character. To get a better read about who Mystery might be, I suggest sending in some questions.
If you're stumped on who to ask, there's a handy list of characters linked in the pinned post as well as the detail doc. I'll be adding this playlist to both as well, just so it can be found easier.

In a Lab since (seemingly) abandoned, on Earth, there was a small cell, or perhaps more fitting would be to call it a cage. In the cage was a small Seeker. The Seeker was beat-up, bloodied, with dried Energon and a torn wing. The cage was big enough to allow him to use one area as a bed with the rest hardly touched. They only fetched him when they needed him. Which wasn’t often. In fact, it had been six days since anyone had set foot in the lab. Dust was beginning to collect. His rust infection was getting worse, and causing him discomfort and pain. The torn wing had long since healed-though poorly and incorrectly. If he had been where others cared about him-he would have had that tear fixed properly. Trace faint scar lines indicated that the wings had at least once or twice been ripped off entirely.
That was not the case for the diminutive Seeker. The Decepticons did not care about him. They had little use for the tiny traitor. As long as he was ‘guinea pig’ to their sciences or serving a use, they permitted him to live. Once that usefulness had run it’s course, though... he would be...deactivated.
What nefarious experiments or tortures had he endured? Even he might not know that now... since they meddled in ways the Autobots would not even consider. Unless, it proved absolutely, positively, necessary.
Malnurished, as the small bot was, he remained curled up, waiting. Waiting for the ‘Cons that tormented him to remember to come and feed him. Waiting for them to decide to return for him and kill him. Waiting for them to come back and torment him some more as their little guinea pig, or simply waiting to slip into stasis and/or perhaps perish for good, from one thing or another given his myriad of health problems.
*Slides a tray of confections under your door with a note* Not sure why every one's trying to keep you up, but rest well and enjoy these when you wake.
The’s no gap under his door through which a tray can be slid, so they’ll have to sit outside. Which means passersby will eat them long before Prowl discovers them.
But in a couple of days he’ll discover the note and appreciate the sentiment.
