st_aurafina | Fanmix: Underneath the Roaring Sky (X-Men Big Bang, for "Je vois ma vie en rose", by lilacsigil) (Reply)

lilacsigil:

"Je vois la vie en rose" is a full-cast gender change. Canon male characters become female, and canon female characters become male or genderqueer. The only exceptions are real people and background military/government characters.

The CIA's Marcus MacTaggert attempts to recruit Doctor Charlotte Xavier and her sibling Raven to assist in the capture of suspected Communist Sabrina Shaw and her unusual associates. Thrilled at the thought finding of more mutants, Charlotte and Raven agree, but are soon put off by the CIA's misogynist attitude and decide to track down these other mutants by themselves. They do find more mutants, but not the ones they were expecting.

Charlotte starts to build a community of mutants but Raven finds that many of them can't even accept themselves, let alone someone who doesn't belong within familiar definitions of gender. Erika's determination to kill Shaw, Shaw's quest to recruit more mutants, and world-threatening political brinkmanship collide with deadly consequences: Charlotte, Raven and Erika must decide what kind of world it is that they want to create.

Charlotte:

Girls just Wanna Have Fun // Emilie Autumn
I want to be the one to walk in the sun,
Oh, girls they want to have fun

Take Me Back to Your House //Basement Jaxx
I'm lonely, so lonely,
Can I come home with you?

Corner // Allie Moss
Take my hand,
We'll hide in the corner,
Hide in the corner

Love out of Lust // Lykke Li
We will live longer than I will,
We will be better than I was,
We can cross rivers with our will,
We can do better than I can.

Erika:

Traveling Woman // Bat for Lashes
Hang on, travelling woman,
Don't sacrifice your plan,
'Cause it will come back to you,
Before you lose it on the man

Luisa's Bones // Crooked Fingers
She lays by the ride of firing anvils,
In a house with cast iron gates,
And underneath red candles waits,
For her killers to come home and,
For a fine revenge to pay.

Arrow // Tegan and Sara
I feel the breeze, you're feathers of an arrow,
Out in my yard, feathers of an arrow.
I take my aim, do you feel me coming close?
I take my aim so you feel me coming close.

What Makes the Cherry Red // Christine Fellows
Here's the line break,
To remind you,
There's been a struggle.

Frost that kills the leaves,
Can't harm the roots,
They still grow in frozen ground.
