If you’re taking Ixlel song recs by any chance, Body by Mother Mother

(I can’t put a screenshot in here but here are some of the lyrics)

[Verse 1] Take my eyes, take them aside Take my face, and desecrate My arms and legs, they get in the way And take my hands, they'll understand Take my heart, pull it apart And take my brain, or what remains And throw it all away

[Chorus] 'Cause I've grown tired of this body A cumbersome and heavy body

(the rest of the song follows a similar pattern)

But specifically the line “take my heart, pull it apart”. If that isn’t Ixlel I don’t know what is. I couldn’t think about anything but this line when I first did the quest

AUGHH OP YOU GOT ME LOOKING LIKE THIS:

I forgot about this song and man you reminded me of it in THE BEST WAY. I might just—*explodes*

Oh guys, Ixlel my beloved… how much better I can treat you….

This part of Step On Me by The Cardigans is her, word for word.

“No Ink, stop posting things that make everyone miserable. You’re the clown in this frown town 🙏.” To that I say:

Xiuhcoatl and Kukulkan. The Coyote is the Abyss ☺️

I hate these doomed dragons and I keep making it worse. I’ll make it worse for your guys too. Xiuhcoatl, Kukulkan, Och-kan… you three are the deaths of me.

Queen of Peace by Florence Machine (not sorry)

I was going to grab a segment but the whole song fits for Ixlel

(How would you guys feel if I start posting song lyrics for characters on Wednesdays?)

Any mitski listeners here? Cause I think I actually found Och-Kan’s song: I’m your man

Observe:

(The last part for me makes more sense in the context of Ixlel believing in him as the holy sovereign and getting…yk betrayed)

To those who have finished the WQ, which is not I, I wish to throw some salt in your wound cause I’m the nicest person you could ever meet 😁.

Listen to Exit music (for a film) by radio head and think about our king Xiuhcoatl

Observe:

Hey Och-Kan fans, hear me out on this wonderful experience that I can’t gatekeep any longer:

The song “The Line” from arcane but think about Och-Kan while listening to it.

Exert from said song:

(If you want it extra angsty you can insert “the light” as Xbalanque and then “Did I disappoint you?” For Waxaklahun Ubah Kan)
