xmas playlist: Snow You Look Good

[chase_acow]

TL;DR - A story told over multiple xmas years. Featuring Bradley looking for his home and Jake trying to fix everything with sex. Sad, sappy middle with a happy ending. Bradley is still an Eagles fan, sings another Jerry Lee Lewis song, and Jake likes his country music.



PRE-MOVIE! - Bradley loved xmas as a kid.
Christmas Treat - Julian Casablancas
I wish it was Christmas today, oh, oh
All I know is that Santa Claus
Don't care about breaking no flying laws

PRE-MOVIE! - Jake doesn't do relationships. No one ever stays anyway.
All I Want for Christmas is Nudes  - Trixie Mattel
Cause I don't want you here tonight
Keep your distance, I'm alright
But, send me one or two
All I want for Christmas is nudes

MOVIE! - Miracles happen!
Christmas Saves The Year  - Twenty One Pilots
But everybody wants to make it home this year
Even if the world is crumblin' down
'Cause everybody's got somebody who's got their name on a shelf
With cheap décor and flavored cheer
You rest assured that Christmas saves the year

IMMEDIATELY POST MOVIE! - Jake likes having friends, and wants in Bradley's pants.
Hangin' 'Round the Mistletoe  - Brooks & Dunn
Christmas Day will soon be here
And everybody's full of cheer
Hanging 'round the mistletoe
Waiting for you, dear

The Naughty List  - Leroy Sanchez
Acting a fool, Breaking the rules
We stole the mistletoe kissing all day
It's a great time, holiday wine
Friends are arriving but they all can wait

THE NEXT YEAR! - Bradley took off after the movie, still unable to deal head-on with his past and his shiny new PTSD. But he wants to try again, especially coming back to The Hard Deck for a reunion with Dagger Squad.
The Lights and Buzz  - Jack's Mannequin
I'm coming home from my hardest year
I'm making plans not to
Make plans while I'm here
And this life has been no holiday
A complicated situation
I'm fine with all my memories
Still I could use vacation

Snowfall  - James Walker
I've not seen you much this year
Funny how time disappears
To every precious moment we're desperate to hold on
The more you try, the more they're gone
I know

'Cause all my life
I've been searching for home
When I had nowhere I needed to go

- Jake still thinks he can't do relationships, but the sex was really good last time, and he knows Bradley isn't going to keep him, so why not have some fun?
Sexy Little Christmas  - DYLN
I could be your Santa baby
Let you decorate me
It’s time for celebrating at home
Cause I got your presents and they all right here
So could we just stay in this year?

- Bradley finally makes peace with his past.
sometimes christmas is hard- Wrabel
All the gifts put in boxes wrapped in ribbon
Your name is written on the card
But some things in life, you can't be given
Yeah, sometimes Christmas is hard

- Jake thinking about ways he could change that would make Bradley want him, but decides he doesn't need to make himself sad over Bradley. (The mutual pining . . . it hurts!)
Hard Candy Christmas  - Caylee Hammack
I'll be fine and dandy
Lord, it's like a hard candy Christmas
I'm barely getting through tomorrow
But still I won't let
Sorrow bring me way down

- Bradley realizing how he'd fucked up his chance with Jake. He's probably playing to a near empty Hard Deck while staring moodily out the window at the ocean
River  - Robert Downey, Jr
I'm so hard to handle
I'm sеlfish and I'm sad
Now I've gone and lost the bеst baby
That I ever had
Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on

- Jake's gonna be fine.
Believe  - Cam
If the flowers can find their way up through the fallen snow
And if the icy Christmas wind can find the strength to blow
If the stars deep in the dark can find the light to glow
Then even on my darkest day, I too can find the hope

- Bradley's gonna be fine.
this christmas  - Wrabel
Last year was the hardest year of my life
Haven't felt no cheer in a while
Feel it getting cold and I start to hope
That Santa Claus brings me some luck
Last year was the hardest year of my life

- They try one more time, and this one sticks. Probably they actually talk about life and their expectations before falling into bed.
For You (Holiday Remix)  - LeeHi
So, baby more time on this Christmas Eve
When my heart is beating for you
That's when I loose my control
When my heart is beating for you
Come close to me

Melting  - Leroy Sanchez
I thought my frozen heart was stronger
But it melted into water
Right when you kissed my lips
A flood of emotions

A FUTURE XMAS! - Please imagine Bradley at the piano giving his cheesiest performance because he's trying to cheer Jake up. One of them has a mission that carries through xmas and it'll be their first one apart.
I Can't Have A Merry Christmas Mary (Without You)  - Jerry Lee Lewis
Don't send me Christmas greetings or gifts wrapped in blue
Just bring yourself my darling and make my dreams come true
For last night I dreamed old Santa Clause
Said that you were lonesome too

Please Come Home For Christmas - The Philadelphia Eagles
So won't you tell me you'll never more roam?
Christmas and New Year's will find you home
There'll be no more sorrow, no grief and pain
And I'll be happy, happy once again

- The boys are sad, but knowing they get to be together gives them hope.
Home To You (This Christmas)-  Sigrid
When I don't know what to say
When I don't know what to do
There's a room I need to sit in
Surrounded by my favorite view
When I need a hand to hold
A hug to warm me through
Would it be okay if I came home to you?

- Miracle #3, the boys crash together at an airport when the mission gets canceled and the other boy decided he wanted to wait a little closer.
Christmas Where We Are  - Dolly Parton, Billy Ray Cyrus
Well, I don't need tinsel and lights
Or a tree with a star
(All I need) All I need is to hold you tight
No matter how near or far
We can have Christmas where we are
Christmas where we are


And finally for my own records:
